Tyler1 claims it\u2019s viewers \u201cfault\u201d if they gamble because streamers do Twitch: Tyler1Twitch star Tyler1 has revealed his opinion regarding Kick and gambling ads, as he argues it\u2019s the viewers\u2019 fault for choosing to gamble and not the streamers\u2019 fault. As Kick continues to grow increasingly popular and sign more and more streamers, the platform has been increasingly criticized for its gambling links. Even though the platform \u2013 which is backed by Stake, the online casino \u2013 has recently released an update that allows users to block gambling streams, some streamers are still skeptical of Kick as they want to stay away from that type of content. This includes Pokimane who spoke against xQc and Kick when his $100 million deal was announced. Tyler1 has now opened up and expressed his thoughts on the matter, where he argues it\u2019s the viewers\u2019 fault for wanting to gamble in the first place. Tyler1 argues people gambling isn\u2019t streamers\u2019 fault In a recent stream, the League of Legends streamer was asked if he was against the gambling ads on Kick. Tyler answered: \u201cNo, I\u2019m not anti-gambling. On the philosophy of what gambling is, if people are stupid enough to gamble and lose their money, that\u2019s their own problem. \u201cEspecially if all these streamers, remember like \u2018don\u2019t gamble\u2019 blah blah blah,\u2019 they go into gambling and they lose it all, they deserve to lose it and that\u2019s their life lesson,\u201d he said. \u201cIf people are like \u2018but what about the kids?\u2019, my whole thing is, if a kid is stupid enough to take their mom\u2019s credit card and number one, that\u2019s bad parenting and they should do better, and again it\u2019s a good life lesson, while they\u2019re young, that they\u2019ll learn and it\u2019ll benefit them in the future. \u201cI don\u2019t care if people gamble.\u201d Even though Tyler\u2019s thoughts differ from a lot of other streamers, it\u2019s a stance that is backed by a fair few viewers and other content creators. It\u2019s an argument that has cropped up before, especially when gambling was prevalent on Twitch and numerous streamers had referral codes for casinos. Twitch has since clamped down on that, which has spawned Kick and helped it grow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
