More than end-point, it's about harm throttling. Cigarettes will kill you, but there's only so many cigarettes you can smoke per day.

Limit gambling to symbolic amounts (maybe a monthly limit of the minimum salary in that country), and see how it goes.

You might even have gambling companies lobbying to increase the minimum salary!
