This video is an opinion and in no way should be construed as statements of fact. Scams, bad business opportunities, and fake gurus are subjective terms that mean different things to different people. I think someone who promises $100K/month for an upfront fee of $2K is a scam. Others would call it a Napoleon Hill pitch.
Speaking from personal experience sports betting can absolutely become addictive. I was so hooked I nearly lost my home. Thankfully I finally beat that demon when my partner announced we were going to have our first child which was the kick in the teeth I needed.
Yeah, I don't understand why the people in these comments are downplaying the effect of other gambling. It's all psychological manipulation.
congrats friend! that's wonderful to hear
I’ve heard that gambling can be even more addictive and destructive than drug addiction or alcoholism but thankfully, I’ve never been a gambling addict so I wouldn’t know from personal experience
@@cordan305 Im partially wanting to believe that only because unlike alcoholism/drugs it doesn't physically affect you. Meaning more gambling doesn't destroy you physically over time, only financially which is harder to see the ramifications of that cuz it takes longer for those to set in than drug/alcohol.
hundred ten percent its a terrible addiction, i am currently battling this and getting better, but it is a very hard road indeed
damn you beat me to it. Can't wait to see what happens with all of the influencers who relied on the Stake safety net to feed their gambling addiction and not leave them homeless.

Do it anyways Spencer! We need the competition to run rampant!
Still make the video please. I love seeing different perceptions on issues
A new streaming platform may show up to fill the need.

Am i reading this wrong ? It doesn't say it's banning gambling, only gambling sites that aren't licensed in the u.s or certain other jurisdictions.
Some gambling, but not all, in part, but not whole, under certain circumstances in each case by automated human review processes, sometimes all the time.
Think it's so that the ban doesn't cover more legit gambling like poker tournaments
It's both. Slots/dice/roulettes are banned (but not something like poker) and gambling on unlicensed sites, even if not banned otherwise.
Consider all stream involving gambling coming from oversea sites, that's still a step forward
Seems like the ban is gonna effect the biggest gambling streamers like Trainwreck cause they are getting sponsored by these shady offshore gambling sites.
Addiction might be a personal problem to a large extent, but having a crack dealer on every corner is still not okay. It takes advantage of people who are vulnerable and ultimately hurts society by taking away what could otherwise be good people who would do good things for the society. A society is built and only as good as the people running and participating in it.
Agreed, as an impulsive person that was on the path to cocaine addiction, changing jobs and moving away from a work environment where 2 or 3 people were dealers, that basically stopped overnight. Not having ease of access to something addictive is definitely a huge help.
This is essentially the next level of gambling. There are UA-cam videos on gambling addiction in the UK (Gambling Addiction & Me: The Real Hustler - 2017) and back when they were made they showed bookmakers' and betting shops on virtually every corner. It's sickening.. Now, hey.. you don't have to leave your house. Using BTC to deposit and gamble is completely integrated and streamlined on the platforms. And since they are outside main jurisdictions, no one can stop it.
Well actually when they make things like alcohol or weed illegal, that's what led to the giant cartels and mafias. Better to regulate vices than have them illegal.
it is perfect! crack it all down.
Not to mention all of the kids on twitch.

The gambling on Twitch has always struck me as really weird and sad. I checked out an Aiden Ross stream once because it was on trending and the whole thing looked like it could be a PSA for gambling addiction. I don't know who would want to watch it, or who would walk away with the thought that going to those online casinos looked good.
The answer unfortunately is children.
some people just wanna feel that happy, but preying on that is really something else
PSA as in.. what?
@@WarNinGXK PSA = Public Service Announcement, if that's what you were curious about
@@WarNinGXK They mean that he looked pathetic and sad while gambling and his stream felt like it was an ad warning against becoming a gambling addict.
The main issue I see is that a huge percentage of Twitch's audience are minors. They're not of legal age to gamble, because society doesn't believe that they have the mental and emotional capacity for "personal responsibility". But for some reason, Twitch was okay with minors getting to gamble vicariously through their favourite streamers, on unregulated sites that are under no legal requirement to adhere to fair representations. Your favourite streamer might be making crazy-ass bets that make no sense, because their contract literally covers any losses they incur, while still paying out their winnings. They might be winning every single spin on slots or the roulette wheel because the game is rigged in their favour to make it look like on average people win more than they lose (simply untrue in any casino, absolutely untrue in an unregulated one). These things are going to seriously entice minors into thinking that gambling is a legitimate means of income, particularly on games of chance (after all, if you 100% know what you're doing, poker and sports betting *can* be legitimate means of income, but slots or table games never can). And because a lot of these sites aren't regulated, there's nothing stopping minors from signing up, buying a bunch of crypto to gamble with and gambling away all their money (or stealing/borrowing money from other people and gambling away all of that).
Most of these things would be 100% illegal if the casinos were regulated under for example US law. A US casino cannot intentionally misrepresent your odds of winning, they can't even allow minors into the casino, and they can't imply that people can make a living on games of chance.
dude streamers dont play with their own money, thats a known secret...
There is a reason why all of those are under curacao law and using crypto money and you nailed it.
The slot websites banned are actually U.S regulated, pretty sure they use the same clauses that allow loot boxes in video games. Instead of gambling money you buy some special currency and then gamble with that. Don't know how that's legal but it is
I love how this shows how BIASED twitch is though. I Guess its just Thot Central now instead of Gambling with Thots.
Guess u didnt visit hot tub and porn section on twitch yet 😂😂
Opeing twitch and seeing the biggest streamers gambling really made the whole vibe gross.
Twitch: We lost all our income, lets unban it.
Nah they still got their amazon sports betting deal. This is just pr
if others don't scam their audiences their audiences have more money to throw at twitch
This is gonna kick a lot of streaming mfers in the teeth and wallet and I couldn't be more excited about it.
Idiot
They deserve it for pushing addiction onto others.
How spiteful of you, I love it!!!
You know they didnt ban sportsbetting right?
Just slots, they didnt ban gambling at all
Lmao
Yeah fuck XQC and trainwrecks. Those dudes are scum of society legit
This feels like history repeating itself, except instead of being just CSGO gambling imploding itself its just broader gambling period
Damn, you are so lucky that you got an invitation to DM from coffeezilla directly
Don't give them too much credit, here. Remember, they didn't ban *all* casino streaming, just the ones outside of the US. Nothing is stopping Caesar's or any of the other US-based casinos from doing the exact same thing.
I mean, Caesars is generally considered to be more acceptable, there are protections in the US legal system, including restrictions on children being able to watch.
At least regulated casino can’t be used by underage
@@akashgarg9776 In some countries it's illegal to advertise gambling just like cigarettes. The fact that this isn't the case in the US is really baffling.
@Coffeezilla ±¹²⁶⁰²³⁹¹⁰⁸³ bot
To be fair: at least Twitch took a full step in the right direction on the gambling issue.
Sure the "finish line" is still a mile away, but a single step forward is already way better than their usual approach to solving problems: running backwards.
poker is a game that combines luck with a bit of skill. good poker players can limit their losses and know when to walk away, you'll never find a good slots player since slots have no skill envolved.
the house always wins, no matter what
Im a poker professional, poker is the most predatory game There is, its worse then gambling in my oppinion.
Look at all the industry people trying to lure in their fanbase and the streamers to lose millions of dollars because poker needs fresh blood because the poker-boom drive out.
They are literally trying to lure new losing players in by befrinding them.
Youre getting played, they liteellly have no shot in winning in poker
90% off the ”pros” arnt even winning players
Also the pros arnt the ones you think they are.
No one really knows about the real pros, unless youre in the games yourself
@Coffeezilla ±¹³⁶⁵³⁵⁰⁹⁷⁴³ no
Yeah Poker has a competitive scene that i would be sad to see gone from twitch but i haven't heard of competitive slots.
You’re right about the luck v skill thing, but extremely wrong about the walking away part. Poker players are as degenerate as the rest of them.
I discovered your channel a couple weeks ago and I just want to say that your content is incredible! I love your work and congrats on all those interesting videos! Cheers!
I remember watching your last video and hearing the news soon after and was like, “Huh. He spoke too soon.”
@Coffeezilla ±¹³⁶⁵³⁵⁰⁹⁷⁴³ ha ha
He’s a worthless snitch
considering how much money these companies are bringing in, you are probably right.
Congrats, on winning this battle and speaking up for those hooked by their noses on slots. When I was addicted to gambling I would drive miles to get to a Casino, spend all the money I had, and left the casino broke, with just enough gas to get home. I even spent A whole weekend in a casino without going home. With online gambling, I cannot imagine how many people bankrupt themselves and others with the click of a button. Much appreciated the work that you do. Thanks.
This proves, that even without a streamer showing you, people will do dumb shit with their money, put it all at risk and then lose it. But lets pretend how many people this will totally "save" lol..
this isn't a win at all, there's still a zillion loopholes, gambling is still allowed and the worst type (sports bettings) is explicitly endorsed by twitch via a gigantic advertising deal.
Hey how did you overcome your gambling addiction? By the way did you assist NA or AA meetings?
Another gambling addict here, only thing that rubs me another way is he telling half-truths about the situation.
I've been watching you since around 100k subs and its been an amazing journey. You are honestly one of the most underrated creators here on youtube if you ask me.
Its nice that Twitch finally did what they should've done the first time which was over a year ago but the damage has been done in my opinion. Streamers have successfully lured a ton of viewers into those shady crypto gambling sites in exchange for a few million dollars and Im almost certain that kids especially have developed an addiction that they will carry over for a very long time and could ruin their lives at a young age. You would not be wrong if you said that Twitch made Stake.
I like it! It was targeted at kids if you ask me. TWITCH is one of the most non transparent companies?
@Coffeezilla ±¹³⁶⁵³⁵⁰⁹⁷⁴³ Dude, we know you aren't the real one. This is a really dumb to scam people.
I think it's more a consecuence of Twitch audience being young .
@Coffeezilla ±¹³⁶⁵³⁵⁰⁹⁷⁴³ LMAOOO
Even if it wasn't targeted at kids, there were so many people saying they had lost money after joining Stake. Streamers (and other influencers) can influence a lot of people and these gambling sites are made so they can hook you up from the start.
@Coffeezilla ±¹⁸²⁵⁴⁷¹⁰²¹⁰ F.U. F.U.
I came into this video about 100% sure I would disagree with you on most things... I watch the gambling streams, I gamble occasionally (probably more than I should) and I was a bit blinded by bias... You have made me see the light in that it really does not belong on Twitch, or really any other platform. Gambling is one of the most addicting things there is, and ruins lives. It should be done with expendable income for entertainment only, never to try and actually MAKE money, that is just a possible biproduct, but in the long run an impossible feat.
Thanks coffee, I was a bit angry about the ban, but now I think it is certainly the best course of action. Love the content.
they should stream on their own platforms if they are a billion dollar company.
they are a scam not a company
Big facts
That's like saying pewdie pie should make his own video platform because he has millions of dollars and followers. There wouldn't be any customers!
Children don't look up gambling sites though that's the reason they go to twitch.
stop trying to legitimise power that wasn't even supposed to be existant and built off of other scam structures / amazon that also wasn't even supposed to be existant and only is because of a lack of responsible use regulation to prevent abuse to allow scammers to impose themselves and there scams into our lives through manipulating sturctural loopholes that should be outlawed not that our system normalises encourages and bases our lives off of of which many of the "bussinesses" today are
Man I've been here since the Life Coach Scammer days, thank you for creating such amazing content!! It's a pleasure to keep watching.
They can't have all the benifits of a casino in one website, so they got rid of the gambling and left the fbi raids, ignoring users and gentlemens club
The CocoMelon noises your kid hears is the same equivalent to all the noises you hear when you enter a casino coming from the slot machines. All the knobs turning, popping noises etc…hit the same receptors.
Wow this is really important, I didn't realise there were big streamers just hosting entire streams gambling on online casinos, that's really unethical.
Love you coffee! When you get even bigger than you are, and you will, remember to stay humble. Lest you become the example to some other up-and-coming UA-camr. Keep up the great work, never sell out!
Actually made me feel warm inside remembering the feeling of energy watching your vids on this last year, and seeing that energy had an impact. Inspiring stuff mr zillA
the speed at which casino games allows someone to lose money is insane. fantasy sports or poker, you can lose large amounts of money but you can't lose huge sums in only minutes. unless you're adam sandler in uncut gems.
Coffeezilla you are an absolute gentleman, never stop what you are doing you are a diamond in the rough and a great entertainer
How to end addiction? NO more Sponsorships would show people losing real money risking their own bank accounts like all the people they got hooked on
I think the personal responsibility argument falls flat when a platform doesn't have an age gate and has a substantial child audience, and I stand to be corrected but I'm sure Twitch falls into this category.
love your work coffee! even videos of yours that I have seen several times are still interesting. bravo sir
They're right to not mess with poker, it's a skill game and it's been on twitch for years without causing problems
Yeah, very different animal, especially on Twitch.
Slots didn't cause problems either. The dude that stole all that money was addicted to sports betting. Dumbest ban of all time.
@@griffen5748 if you actually believe that then I think you need a break from the internet
@@griffen5748 "Slots didn't cause problems" is an extremely daft and demonstrably untrue statement
@@griffen5748 you might just be the most delusional person I've ever seen
Coffee before even the end of the video I wanted to say that I think you’re the best investigator here we’ve got on this platform, I mean sometimes you ain’t 100% objective but that’s part of the job, just keep it up 👍
Twitch should have done this YEARS ago
God damn coffee time, tear jerker at the end. Keep up the banger content, thanks for all you do.
I thought I knew twitch, people streaming themselves playing games. I recently learned on here that twitch gambling was a thing and a eyebrow was raised, how oddly insane it sounds.
Wait to hear about the borderline softcore porn that they allow on their platform
Twitch's two biggest money makers are "Just Chatting", which is basically just Chaturbate Lite, and Gambling. It's insane.
Twitch started out as a gaming stream plattform. But thats long gone. With Arts, Softporn, podcasts, gambling etc its just a videoplatform. And a terribly managed one as well...
Not defending it, I’m as happy as the next guy, the reason it got a pass was gambling broadcasts are an established thing (ie World Series of poker) and twitch is about games which does to some extent include games of chance. It was kinda within the ballpark of what could be seen as acceptable even if imo it never was acceptable. I am pretty hardline on gambling but I get why it took a lot to move the needle.
ban bathtub esq streams belong on a camsite. work out the gambling ban policy and i WILL BE SO HAPPY.
According to adin Ross yesterday he lost a 100 million dollar deal meaning he was getting paid about 8-10 million dollars a month which adds up if you consider his bets and bet size.
I'm not here to argue which form of gambling is worse or not, I just find it quite funny that Sliker's supposed gambling addiction that caused all of this was sports betting and that's one of the forms of gambling that is still allowed on Twitch.
The Aiden ross work force meme/resume 100% made me lol awesome content per usual!!
People actually spent time watching others play online slots? Watching randomized outcomes that don't require skill is not my idea of entertainment.
They are children, who can't play slots that's why and that's why these affiliate codes are bad, as some of those kids will illegally play them. After being encouraged by people they look up to
Children. Twitch is a disgusting company
And actually believing they were using their own money on those bets and not given to them by their undisclosed sponsor… 😂😂😂
Slots drew a lot of attention due to the fact streamers like Trainwreckz, xQc, etc started doing 10k+ spins & won big.
You sound broke.
I think the difference in addictiveness between slots and skill games is that if you do badly at poker you are incentivised to stop playing and think how you can improve whereas the only way to get any profit from gambling (roulette/slots/scratch cards/lottery) is to play more, which in it's self guaranties that you will lose.
Twitch has covered up for years. My own assualt case against them went cold after they changed a certain staff members email address and refused to take the detectives phone call. Both actions resulting in being unable to question twitch about my case. It feels good to see them burn a little :)
That’s awful, I hope you’re doing better now
@@MaryamMaqdisi thank you :) doctors and counciling has helped
My goal atm is to raise awareness to any others, past, present or future that if twitch staff did sa, there is an open case in San Diego they can report, no paperwork as I've already done it
I wish coffeezilla had an alter-ego that exposed all these “get fit quick” gurus
Will twitch make more steps in the right direction? doubt it but we can hope. keep it up coffeezilla #pumpthestock! lol
I am still confused how Twitch isn't getting a standard 18+ rating. Can't touch the mainpage without seeing a good abudance of internet thots (Girls that use their sexual features to exploit children into buying them subs etc )
just to clarify: If the casino has a licence in the US or in a strong jurisdiction (like France or Germany) you can actually keep streaming slots. Stake has a Curacao licence, it is illegal from the day he was born.
That this came out WHILE XQC and Hasan were debating the topic with 200k viewers on THEIR streams plus everyone else watching... feels significant.
The steaming coffee cup on your desk was all I could focus on 😂
Well Twitch is owned by Amazon we cant expect good things coming form them.... But this is a showing that sometimes they try to make themselves better.

It sounds to me like they're trying to limit long-term losses via bad publicity, which all big companies do. They have to appear to have a conscience in order to stay relevant. Don't get me wrong, I think it's great, but it's calculated - it's not the same way that a human might try to do better after making a mistake.
Twitch did something somewhat good, well this is fascinating
Yo dude, I noticed the shuttered window shadow thing you’ve got going on on your right side, wether that’s a irl thing or special effects I love the tiny levels of detail you put into the 10 million dollar studio
Rest in peace XQC
in australia we call 'slots' a 'brickies laptop' and have top 10 charting songs about destroying them with explosives
As a new investor in Zilla I'm really pleased to see this. It's still far from perfect but it at least shows that if you force enough bad/illegal practices into the light big companies like Twitch have to take action to cover their own asses.
This reminds me of the 2000’s.
“It’s just OxyContin, it’s not a an addictive as heroin!”
Here we are in 2022 with more people dying from overdoses than war, famine, murder, etc.
Ya but OxyContin is resulted. You can’t just buy it over the counter. Also medications fall under personal responsibility more than anything. “Take only as directed” actually means something. People just popped them like candy so of course bad things were going to happen.
Glad they did it but how did it take them so long
Just fyi people who don't know, poker is a game of skill, its not gambling. Only losing players won't admit it.
Add Twitch gambling to wall of shame?
I'm just as surprised that they did ban gambling but I am so happy they did.
They didn't actually ban gambling though lol just a few unregulated sites that operate outside the USA.... Twitch has billion dollar connections to draftkings and the NFL so yeah that's a much larger audience than a trainwrecks or Adin Ross stream don't you think?
I think them banning most types is good, because sports betting and poker require a learning curve and knowledge on the games, especially sports betting. Whereas you can literally have 0 gambling knowledge and just click the slot machine button
Coffee you deserve all the success and admiration for all your time and hard work!
Fair enough but your comment contributes nothing whatsoever to anyone, she are wasted electricity. You could have sent an email at the absolute most
I work for casino streamers, I'm happy to see the crackdown on this industry. Too many people are playing with fake money and showing unrealistic returns.
I've always refused to do work for anyone playing with fake money, and I've burned relationships with people who get into it.
There are tons of US sites that are still legal. The only thing changing here is going to be what sites we see.
My guess would be that if they would allow it to continue it could turn twitch into an 18+ service, plus since you can watch gambling and even do oz yourself with the help of twitch that they then probably need a gambling license in every nation where they allow acces to the site
I'll be honest I never understood the appeal of slots. You're essentially flushing your own hard earned money down the drain while watching a random number generator output a bunch of random numbers. Some of the numbers make you win but most make you lose. You know this before you even sit down. What exactly is the appeal of this? That you might, against the odds, temporarily win some money before inevitably losing it again? I just don't get it at least something like blackjack gives you the illusion of control over the outcome (though obviously you will lose there as well)
I love the little details that you put in your production, like that coffee smoke.
Instead of moderating the content for adult audiences... nah that would take actual effort. Lets just ban it.
Gambling on licensed casinos wont be banned, who likes watching 1000 euro sponsored money spins anyway lol
@@pyroandi6797 the other ones were licensed as well. Just not on the standard place. Also liking it or not doesn’t matter. I didn’t watch any gambling stream and nor do I gamble. Still shouldn’t be banned
This is the best decision Twitch has ever made.
Sports betting is the bigger issue. Can't ban one and then leave the other around idk. Also Technically Stake is still allowed because of the stupid wording they used. Since it IS licenced in the US as of this year.
The recently-launched US site is a *social* casino - people buy play chips with no cash value. That's not a licensed casino.
I mean they can ban it regardless.
I mentioned this on Twitter, but I think that the reason why sports betting and fantasy sports are being omitted is due to their agreement with the NFL and their sponsors. I don't think they would risk having a massive agreement like that run afoul of ToS. But that's just a theory of mine
Stock /Crypto is the best investment anyone could get into ever!
This is good, because most streamers sponsored by these sites had rigged odds on these games

Since the start of 2022, we have been in a recession, but major media outlets and governments around the world refused to acknowledge it. We must exercise wisdom and intelligence. Since knowledge is power, I want the entire family to be strong! I recently bought some AMCZ3. We appreciate you keeping us informed during these uncertain times.
We so appreciate the good work you do!
The simple fact is that Poker is a skill game where the best players consistently win using strategy amd experience.
There is no skill in slots, its pure gambling.
They're not banning gambling, just sites that aren't licensed in the US. So it's just a tiny plaster stuck over a stab wound essentially

there are no online gambling sites licensed in the US.
What about other jurisdictions? Gambling is banned here but we're quite a long way from Belgium unless the platform voluntarily explicitly considers something gambling, so if they say "ok this is us sanctioned gambling" and "well this is unsanctioned gambling", they could just go and "thanks US of A this is all gambling, we have a laundry list of influencers we couldn't influence until now!"
they are banning dice, roulette etc etc etc the main offenders also so ya they kinda are but at the same time they havent
Twitch likely wants a cut of this, this much money can't be changing hands over their platform without getting a taste.
Brazilian soap opera*
Really odd how someone with a sports betting addiction was used to get slots banned but sports betting is still allowed....
go coffeezilla
Regulatory authorities cannot reach gambling scam havens, but they *can* reach Amazon. That's why this is happening. Pure legal calculations.
I'm sorry, you watch a streamer play slots? So you sit there, watch him push a button, loose money the company gave him and then sub to that streamer.
Sports bets and poker are absolutely still gambling, but they do include *some* skill, as opposed to dice, and roulette, and slots, which are litterally just random chance.
Congrats on the W
It's more like a V. Half a W, at best. Really though, it's more of a \, once you read all the fine print.
It's not helping anyone. Dumbest decision of all time. Slicker was addicted to sports betting, not slots.
0:46 this guy understands more how the inner workings of twitch modding works that twitch themselves

Wish I could spend some time chatting with this guy, such a great speaker.
I actually enjoy watching the gambling streams sometimes and don't gamble myself. Kinda live vicariously though them. Any streamer I watched was always forward with the fact that big wins out of context don't represent the reality of gambling
Aww shit, is this another "drawn CP pacifying pedos" situation?
It doesn't really matter what they say if they play slots or roulette, the viewer can still get the gamblers high and the itch, which is the whole point of paying them to promo.
More nefarious methods include making the odds different for the promo player.
If “personal problems” starts to affect other people, platforms should limit the reach of that problem. Twitch did it so late.

@@Tristan-42069 what? He brought up a good point tho? This ban doesn't even address the problems.
Sports betting is gambling.
I don't think it's people "that agree with the ban" who are the stupid ones, here.
@@Loctorak to run defense, he's probably saying people who think this ban are good are uninformed, not stupid.
For gambling sites specifically, you can't talk about personal accountability when they are actively trying to get people addicted.
Twitch can't talk about personal accountability when they are actively promoting those platforms and indirectly promoting people getting addicted to gambling. When their goal is making as much money as possible off of it
Their goal is to get as many people as possible to gamble for as much money as possible.
There is a complete conflict with what they're saying.
The most potent form of gambling we have is ranked mmr in multiplayer online games. Thats why I dont see the point in gambling with money
pleasantly surprised to see you on the right side of this, gambling is horrid and rigged, especially online gambling
I’ve been in discords with people under 18 that have gambled illegally using vpns/crypto on the platforms they saw streamers advertise and all of them lost money. Its absolutely an issue its just that those pos streamers dont care. Adin Ross & Co all of them heavily promoted gambling to their clearly underage viewers knowing it would mess them up
Imagine if streams of DND groups get banned because the game involves dice.
I'm pretty sure the reason sports betting is still around is because of Draft Kings. They've always been a big sponsor.
I'm not addicted to gambling
Im addicted to sitting in a semi circle
Mitch hedberg
I feel like the biggest hypocrisy is that they didn't end up banning sports betting as well, especially since the whole situation came forward from Sliker's insane scam and he literally admitted to being addicted to gambling and putting all that money he stole into sports betting as opposed to slots and casino games. If that isn't proof that sports betting is as addictive and destructive as slots, blackjack and roulette, I don't know what is.
Can't believe it's been so long after Coffee and Muda did their coverage
I think it makes sense where twitch has drawn the line. In Poker / sportsbetting you can have an edge, which you can't have in the banned games like slots. So poker / sportsbetting are closer to chess etc. than slots. But I also understand that people can get addicted to poker / sportbetting, but also I think as the study you quoted, it's to a lesser degree.
If by "closer" you mean as close as modern chickens are to dinosaurs
