Gambling in Kuwait? Prohibited or allowed? Gambling in Kuwait? Prohibited or allowed? Today I have been to Kuwait city by bus. While I was waiting for my bus I have started walking around Mirgab surrounding area. I have seen one crowed of people and first I have ignored. Few minutes later I became bit of curious about crowed and I have asked myself why these people are so busy keeping their eyes down looking inside. Anyway I have put my phone camera on walked near the crowed pretending to be typing something on the phone. I have managed to take some photographs without letting anybody know Iam taking photos. Unluckily inside photos I don’t know what happened to them. Inside they had one piece of card board with few numbered boxes from 2-6. Four people sitting on the ground for collecting cash and giving cash. One of them were doing double Duty collecting / giving cash and throwing dice. Another person standing and managing the whole game. I have spent about an hour watching this gambling and surprised to know they have done business in hundreds kuwaiti dinars. Later I have found out there are other members of the gang keeping an eye on the surroundings of this place. I have really felt very sorry for some of those poor Indian Bengali and Pakistanis who lost money in gambling. Someone told me it happens in other places as well during lunch hours.
