    What this will mostly do is increase the underground gambling world, addiction is not something you fix by putting a limitation.

      It still works as a harm reduction measure. As with all things, making things more difficult decreases the amount of people that do it. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. Every little bit of pressure on these vices helps strangle the industry.

      This is true, however underground gambling is typically card and table games.

      What this could do is stop grandma from putting $400 through a machine after going to a venue for the $8 roast of the day.
