Gambling is generally frowned upon in the online gaming community and many games with gambling mechanics are often criticised. Over the past few years, however, with things like gambling Gacha games, pokemon cards trading and virtual gambling games, the gambling category is coming back. A lot of streamers on Twitch have started streaming these gambling type games over the last few years, and they have become popular among the audience too. Gambling games keep growing on Twitch as popular streamers turn to these games to increase their viewership. While gambling games are highly entertaining for the viewers, it might lead some to the dark road of gambling addiction.

One of the more popular streamers in the gambling content creators is Cody Burnett who goes by his gaming name Xposed. Xposed was once an FPS streamer who played skill-based shooter games on his streams and was known for losing his temper, but he always kept it under control and didn't break any Twitch Terms of Service. Over time Xposed has gone from streaming first-person shooter games to playing gambling games online as he got more viewership doing that content.
