-‘A lady at the bus stop screamed’ [[https://tripscan.xyz/|tripscan top]]
+A social thing
+Kevin Vo, now 25, had never gambled before placing his first bet on basketball games through FanDuel three years ago. He had just secured his first job, in finance, and he had some money to play with.

-On June 14, finding the roads blocked, Kang canceled her plans to travel to northern Iran and stayed home playing card games and cooking with her host family. While seated on the carpets woven with Isfahan patterns, they served her bread, tea and traditional Iranian foods, while she treated them to Chinese spicy hotpot, known as malatang, and to milk tea.
+“I honestly fell into the peer pressure of my friends: like, literally all of them posting their parlays (on social media),” Vo said.
-That was the last homestay before her long journey out of the country.
+A parlay combines two or more individual bets into one, and all conditions must be met for the bettor to win money — a high-risk, high-reward strategy Vo found compelling.
-In the early morning of June 15, she set off to Tehran by bus. On the way, Kang says a police officer stopped the vehicle for a security check, and she was asked to put on a headscarf.
+Like Ethan, he watched games with friends who had all bet on the outcome and participated in group chats dedicated solely to the bets of the day. Vo’s casual pastime escalated in a matter of months.
-“Approaching Tehran, I saw black smoke, which scared me,” she says.
-Arriving in the Iranian capital at 2 p.m., she jumped from one bus stop to another, seeking help from locals for tickets to the northwestern city of Tabriz.
+“Every single day I would have a parlay,” Vo tells CNN.
-“I heard sounds of gunfire, and then a lady at the bus stop screamed. I was pretty calm though… I heard gunfire from far away every 10 minutes,” she says.
+Vo originally bet only on sports he knew well, but as he got deeper into the betting apps, he began putting money on options he knew nothing about. At one point he dove into Polish basketball, betting on games he couldn’t even watch.
-Although some residents looked frustrated, she says the city was quite calm. During a visit to one restaurant, everyone appeared to be carrying on as normal. However, she says her inability to speak Farsi made it difficult to get a real sense of how people truly felt about the situation.
+“I was down a couple grand at one point. I was able to make it back. And then that all kind of fell down,” Vo said.
-“Around 50 years ago, this place was known as the ‘Little Paris of the Middle East’,” she says. “Now, most people seem to carry a sense of gloom, complaining about the government. Some strike me as highly talented and speak excellent English, yet they feel suppressed by the government and lack the means to travel abroad.”
-Kang finally got on a bus departing from Tehran at 10 p.m. and fell asleep. The next morning, she awoke to discover the bus had traveled less than 100 kilometers, caught in congested traffic with masses of people leaving the capital. In total, it took her around 15 hours to arrive in Tabriz.
+Vo spent months up and down with his wins and losses – and finally walked away when he was down only a few thousand and had just moved into his own apartment.
-“I was tired and hungry,” she says, adding that there was no bathroom on board the bus. After a few more struggles due to language barriers, she eventually found another bus to Maku. From there, she was able to take a taxi to the Turkish border. Crossing into Turkey at midnight, it then took another 22 hours to get to Istanbul, where she was able to catch a flight to Taiwan.
+In an email to CNN, FanDuel outlined several ways it acts to prevent harmful gambling: the ability to set deposit limits and alerts, sending users a monthly statement with their financial status in the app, a review system triggered by activity like too many hours spent on the site or attempting to come back from big losses, and self-exclusion programs that include the offer of a free mental health assessment.
+“We work to identify signs of harm and engage with the user to prevent that harm from happening,” said Cory Fox, FanDuel’s Senior Vice President of Public Policy and Sustainability.
+DraftKings has similar safety measures in place, and it invites users to set limits with a pop-up page immediately when creating an account.
+“These resources are introduced at sign-up and reinforced throughout the customer journey,” Lori Kalani, DraftKings Chief Responsible Gaming Officer, said in an email to CNN. “It’s more fun when it’s for fun—and that’s the experience we aim to deliver.”
