question about online solitaire gaming

[grasswire]

I have a relative whose SO is spending a lot of time playing solitaire with other people on the Internet. Someone told me that he's probably gambling. Is most online gaming for $$? If you know anything about it, please comment. He had a gambling problem previously, in real life.

1. Um the word solitare

Means alone. You don't play solitare with other people.

2. There are free sites and for-money sites

but I don't play Solitaire... Not sure how you gamble on that,
but I suppose you can gamble on anything.

It's a bit difficult to transfer money to offshore gaming
internet sites but it can be done, look for transfers from
credit cards to internet banking facilities like "Net-teller"
"IGM-pay" "FPS epassport" etc. Also, cash transfers to people
offshore using Western Union is a dead giveaway. Most bank cards
will not allow the card holder to transfer money directly to
known gambling sites as wagering online is technically illegal.

I play poker online occasionally (though I mostly stopped because
of suspicion of collusion among opponents). While I was doing it,
I made money (but not a lot).

I hope things turn out OK for your relative... gambling addiction
is a really bad thing and I've seen it destroy lives.
