Gambling Massachusetts

Gambling has had many different meanings depending on the cultural and historical context in which it is used. It currently has an economic definition in Western Societies, referring to "wagering money or something of material value on an event with an uncertain outcome with the primary purpose of winning additional money or material goods." Typically the outcome of the wager is evident within a short period of time.

Gambling has had many different meanings depending on the cultural and historical context in which it is used. It currently has an economic definition in Western Societies, referring to “wagering money or something of material value on an event with an uncertain outcome with the primary purpose of winning additional money or material goods.” Typically the outcome of the wager is evident within a short period of time.

3. Not Gambling


Here is a list of things not typically considered to be gambling:

  • Physical risk taking where there is no money or material value being wagered. Skydiving for example.

  • Buying Insurance, as the primary intent of the buy is to protect against loss, rather then collect profit

  • Any type of investment including the Stock market and Real Estate with positive return expected, economic utility, and some underlying value independent of the risk undertaken by purchasing it

  • Starting a new business. This is because time and effort are also being wagered along side the fact that the outcome is not determined in a short period of time

  • Prediction markets

    • 4. Legal Aspects


    Most jurisdictions limit gambling to some extent based on many religious authorities who generally disapprove of gambling to some extent. Gambling may also have adverse social consequences. Most countries laws do not recognize wagers as contracts, and view any consequent losses as DEBTS OF HONOUR, unenforceable by legal process. Therefore, organized crime often takes over the enforcement of large gambling debts, sometimes using violent methods.

    Many jurisdictions, local and national, ban or heavily control gambling. Such regulation generally leads to gambling tourism and illegal gambling, the latter often under the auspices of organized crime. Conversely, the close involvement of governments has led to close connection between many governments and gambling organizations, where legal gambling provides much government revenue, such as in Monaco or Macau.
