In 1999, fiasco of German casino players have in general totaled to 1.55 Billion DM. Statistically speaking, the average gambler who steps into the casino and plays games of chance such as Roulette, Blackjack and Baccarat loses about 120.00 DM on a single gaming night.
The question is who ends up winning those extra bucks? It turns out that casino operators are not the ones to enjoy most of the revenues. Due to high taxes of 80% to 90% of the large gaming proceeds, it is the federal country granting casino licenses that relishes in the greatest profits.
Roulette, Blackjack and Baccarat, the most practicable games of chance, frequently make the existence of many people a living hell as they find themselves hooked up on it. The vicious circle is then launched. The principle of the majority of casino laws is that if gambling losses are an absolute must, then at least they should be funneled to a noble cause, such as social and cultural needs. Yet, the truth is, that government that reaps most of the benefits from gambling, eludes the responsibility for the destitute ones. Though some leaders tackle the matter by utilizing parts of the gaming taxes for therapy, sadly, these are only singular attempts which are not consolidated under specific legislation.
