“I want to make it clear that I am not promoting or encouraging gambling in any way,” GMHikaru said. “I am simply sharing my passion for games and competition, and gambling happens to be a part of that world. If my content is not for you, that’s completely understandable. But for those who enjoy it, I’m just here to provide some fun and excitement.”
Despite the backlash, GMHikaru’s gambling streams have proven to be popular, attracting a new audience of viewers who are interested in the high-stakes action. With his signature wit and charm, GMHikaru has managed to turn what could have been a controversial move into a successful venture, solidifying his status as one of Kick’s top streamers.
