Watched a slot streamer hit a bonus round last night and the chat was going feral. Then it occurred to me half that chat was definitely teenagers. Where does everyone land on casino streaming?
casino streamers — harmless fun or a problem?
My teen watches these and I am not thrilled about it. Half the time the balance they're playing with isn't even real money, which makes the whole thing a commercial dressed up as entertainment.
Some streamers are upfront about sponsorships, most are not. I treat it like advertising: fine to watch, never a guide for your own play.
That's the right frame. Entertainment, yes. Education, absolutely not. The ones pretending they're 'teaching strategy' on slots drive me up the wall.
