Hey everyone,

As online gambling platforms continue to grow in popularity, I’ve been wondering about the future of traditional, land based casinos. With the convenience and accessibility of online betting, will brick-and-mortar casinos become a thing of the past, or will they evolve to offer experiences that can’t be replicated online?

Do you think they’ll manage to hold their ground, or will we see a shift towards exclusively digital platforms?

They'll both exist into this gambling industry no matter how online gambling would progress, we should make ourselves aware that not all people would really be loving on playing online and still nothing could
beat up that real ambiance and experience on which physical casinos that could give and this is something those gamblers do loving and this is where they do preferred it out.

If you do try to look around then those casinos are still on existence on which means that there's still that a huge demand and i dont see any decline. Despite on online gambling casinos rise
or demand but still there are gamblers who are really that preferring on playing into these places. They are still making that significant revenue and we've seen on how
still relevant they are even up in todays era.

The only time when they are not going to be visited by gamblers is when there will again be a pandemic or sort of a virus plaguing the cities. But most of the time, people love social life, they will travel miles and miles just to enjoy Vegas or even the local casinos.

They will still hold their grounds but they will also adopt, maybe their chips will be BTC already. Or people can play using their mobile wallets to scam codes and pay in the card table.

The socialization and the entertaining environment that you will get from bricks and mortar casinos, you can not get that from online casinos. While online casinos can be easily accessed and also can help in having privacy. You can see that they have different advantages also. Bricks and mortar casino will because of this still be existing.

Not a thing of the past, but the tendency is that they lose popularity and customers the more we advance into the digital age of virtual casinos. They won't go into complete extinction, though. There are still many enthusiasts of land based casinos, especially people who still prefer living in analog system, while rejecting digital stuff the maximum as possible. There are also the ones who attend to physical casinos for fancy reasons, that is, when travelling to luxurious touristic cities where casinos are part of the local attractions.

They will remain in less quantity, but an exclusivity for digital platforms is unlikely. Thinking about investments, it seems more profitable for casino owners to launch online platforms, instead of land based ones, since the implementation and maintenance costs are much inferior. That is what we already seeing with so many casinos apps being launched and introduced to the public, especially at sports' championships where the main sponsors are actually gambling houses.

I think land base will not go away, they revolutionized how we experienced gambling and so even if there are online games with the advent of internet, there are old players that still want to go traditional base and wanted to feel the ambience and the noise and the camaraderie seeing feeling gamblers. And gambling is a billion dollar business so for sure whether land base or online games, there will be enough money for either business to share. For me I still go and play on land base casinos from time to time, even though I also enjoy playing online at home at my own time. But every weekends me and my friends will drive to land base casino, play card games or even roulette and enjoy the night with free drinks too,  ;D.

The physical, conventional casinos will never go out of style. The physical casinos can give you what online casinos cannot, and this is a genuine experience that just cannot be matched in any other place; the tables, croupiers, everything is real! In the same manner, they feature different environments including music or live entertainment, high-end service in luxury ambience. To maintain their preeminence in the digitalized age, some traditional casinos need to change. A lot of them have expanded their business and now operate online as well or provide their customers with the gambling opportunity on their platforms too. Moreover, some casinos are now embracing new technologies such as augmented reality to enhance the visitor experience.

While the land-based gambling industry is vulnerable to the competition from online casinos, they have their own advantage, which is the integration of technology and delivering special services to its clients, hence helping them stay afloat. It will most likely be the situation for some time, with each form of gambling appealing to specific market segments.

For sure there might be some physical casinos made out their own online version as well, im not sure if its existing but its on high probability but mostly they would really be focusing into a single point.
Instead on trying out to cope up with the current changes that we do have specially on technology but still they've decided to stay up on the game and this is something which would really be that so normal.
It is really just that there are people who do have that kind of different preference when it comes to things on which its is really just that a normal approach. Land based casinos wont really be that relaxed
on making themselves getting left behind with the competition. Of course they would really be trying to be updated as much as they could and if there would really be some notable changes when it comes to tech
and other features then for sure they would really be applying.

Just like on typical businesses is that as an owner then you would really be doing your very best on making yourself offering the latest and the most recent possible offering that you could give.
You wont really be letting yourself get left behind.

I think brick-and-mortar casinos are still viable even though online casinos are more in demand but there's no source I've read where brick-and-mortar casinos have been abandoned.

Take a look at some of the physical casinos in the west that are legal that still have many visitors what I know in the news so physical casinos will not become a thing of the past or outdated because physical casinos have their own way of attracting visitors.

After all, there are still people who don't casino people go to physical casinos for various reasons, such as they want to interact directly, real games including poker cards and others.

They will manage to hold their ground, but not in this number. In my country (and probably in some other countries as well) there are many land-based casinos around, almost on every corner. But people who hang out there are mostly "older" people, so I think we can say that the younger generations are more into "online", so with time there won't be as much need for land-based casinos.

Time will tell if I'm right or wrong, but my opinion is that land-based casinos will lose the race at one point. It may not happen in the next 5-10 years, but one day it surely will.

We need both of them to enjoy gambling especially board games. They is a big fun gambling on a land base casino, because you don't just enjoy the game alone, but you enjoy the environment, entertainment and socialization. Online gambling is for people that loves to keep their gamble life a secret, and love privacy.

Do you know that people get connected, and do business in a land base casino, which you cannot do that when gambling online. This is why they will both exist as long as gambling exist.

Both land-based gambling houses and online casinos have their place in gamblers lives. Both of them have the kind of purpose that they fulfil; they can't completely replace each other; they need to give each other a helping hand.
 
There are people who, no matter how modernised they make the gambling house, just don't like using it; they prefer to stay in the comfort of their homes and place their bets without even having anyone disturb them.
 
There are also those who just like having interaction while gambling, which is one thing that keeps encouraging them to visit the local gambling house all the time.

I see plenty of reasons why each of them can't replace each other; they need one another to take themselves to the next level. That's why most gambling companies have both land casinos and online casinos in order to keep both customers in place.

I think it depends on the gamblers themselves, there could be gamblers here who haven't seen a landbase casino, and they could be very young. And so I think majority of us here at some point step inside a land base, feeling very emotional as it's their first time and we are all nervous. But once we gain that confidence we fell in love with it. However, during the pandemic, we've seen the growth of online games and so maybe some traditional gamblers switch to them. Personally though, I still land base casino.

So there are advantage and disadvantage of both casino, but I think both are going to survived as the numbers of gamblers are also growing. In the States alone, there are a lot of land base casinos,

As for the question of the OP, yeah, brick and mortar casinos are going to stay and will likely continue. Countries like Macau for instance, rely on it's land base casinos to give jobs for their population and they are earning like billions every month.

Land casinos will never disappear.
On line casinos and land based casinos are two completely different concepts that are aimed at very different classes of players.
They are not offering the same experience just as example...
You will never find the guy who "plays to earn" in a casino in San Moritz.
You will never find people waiting for an airdrop or begging for a donation in the all of this kind of casinos.
You will never find people who have an interest in not being identified (kyc) or refuse additional checks (example AML)...
the list is very long...

I don't know about you but land base casino right now offer experiences that can't be replicated online.

yeah, they will, landbase casino industry is big and casino owners would not just suddenly look the other way around just becasue online casino is becoming popular. also, land base casino and online casino are very different, while both of them offer gambling, the experience are extremely different.

Oh they'll stay. You can say that land-based casinos will simply turn into a premium place for big places. More like a part of a big facility for entertainment stuff. This would only happen btw if most land-based casinos do become obsolete or less relevant, so they turn to that path. Right now? They're still working just as fine afaik. There are a couple of countries that still rely on land-based casinos as their own main source of attraction and maybe a couple of others that even if it's not their main attraction, still have a sizeable amount of customers.

Maybe if the world turned completely digital (Like completely, literally everyone), then maybe we'd see a shift but that's like still half a century at least imo.

Online gambling's never going to fully replace traditional casinos.  Vegas thrives on sensory overload - the lights, the sounds, the excitement.  Can't replicate that rush on a phone screen.  But more and more folks do prefer mobile betting.

So, old-school casinos must up their game.  Draw in younger crowds make it an event, not just gambling.  Give people memorable nights they'll wanna re-live again.  Casinos have history on their side.  Leverage nostalgia and really play that up.

Definitely see where you're coming from, but let's not overlook the appeal and convenience of online casinos. They're not just about playing from home, they're about accessibility, variety, and innovation. Sure, physical casinos have their charm, but online platforms offer a vast selection of games, often updated with the latest tech developments, which you can enjoy without waiting for a free table or slot machine. Plus, for those who might be intimidated by the grandeur of traditional casinos or prefer a more private gaming experience, online casinos are a perfect fit.

Land based or physical casino will never ever lose its popularity or market, as many people are still playing in physical casinos and especially those wealthh or rich people who's hobby is to play gambling, they find joy and entertainment in playing physically, and remember physical casino will never be lose its profit as long as there's a lot of gamblers out there, there's still a thing in physical casino that online cssino can give, its the hands on experience pf playing gambling games, many preferred to interact with other gambler, socialise is one the thing that keeps physical casino alive, and as you will notice online gambling as very popular mostly in this new era, its because mostly those gamblers prefer conviniency or doesn't have the time and money to go to an actual casino. So traditional or physical casinos will never lose their ground, no matter what; there will always be customers in the gambling industry.

The rise of online gambling doesn't diminish the value of physical casinos but rather complements the overall gambling landscape by catering to different preferences. In today's digital age, the ability to have a quick game on your phone or laptop, at any time, is something many players value highly. Both platforms indeed have their merits.

For me it doesn't matter what era we are in, I say that physical channels will never go out of style, there will come a time when many people who would like to take this digital casino will be able to do so, but I would like it to be like in a virtual environment where There is the same correlation that there is in conversations, greetings, with the exception of the meals, juices, drinks that they offer in the casinos, yes, I would like it to be something totally different, as I said in the virtual environment where a diagram is made. of the casino, where everything is simulated, from the moment of entry to walking in and seeing everything as it is, that would be the way, but even so I think I prefer the physical, which is a different experience, for some it will always be better this way, but The digital age can change Everything, from the lifestyle we have to how we are now.

If only it is being interesting to play and people can not afford to have it outdated that they can not play it further or find it trending and comfortable to play anymore of course it would evolve in advance digitalization.
But would only be matter of time.

These are the similar questions that were asked by people who were used to only the post office services before the telephones started taking over. The inquired to know if post office services will be able to survive the modernity and changes, and by now they have their answers. The digital age is taking over, most land based casino owners are already experiencing the reduction in their profit margin, soon they will be out of business completely as the number of online casino's are increasing.

In the future, the number of land based casinos will be much smaller than we have now.

For me traditional gambling would stay. The physical type for me is the best imo, the shouts, the platform, the tables, the machines, the bettors not following the line, the complaints, the wall, if you can imagine this while reading then you know that this is the real of realest.

People go in their not only to make money, but to truly entertain themselves. They met new people from the other side of the country. This is even the place where people get to network their businesses. Maybe the transaction can be made online, but the actual interaction is what makes it alive. In this way you play here to truly have fun.

Yes, the ambiance, the live energy, and the camaraderie among players at a physical location create a unique gaming experience. And I totally agree, those trips with friends, engaging in card games or roulette, and enjoying the perks like free drinks, add a special touch to the gambling experience  ;D


Oh, absolutely! Stepping into a land-based casino for the first time is like a mini adventure - it's thrilling, a bit nerve-wracking, but totally memorable. Then came the pandemic, and boom, some of us found a new playground online. Still, there's something about the clink of chips and the buzz of a casino floor that's hard to beat.

But imagine walking into a casino that's got all the classic vibes but with cool, techy twists - maybe VR blackjack or holographic dealers? Places like Macau show us they're not just sitting pretty; they're innovating, turning casinos into futuristic entertainment hubs. It's not just about keeping up; it's about leading the charge into a whole new era of gambling fun!

On land casinos, there are usually some cheering sounds, buzzing, arguments, new people that come and go, etc. The fun or joy derived from betting on land casinos is not only dependent on the game you play but also on those other factors listed above, and there is no way online casinos can establish such things in their casinos because it is online and people can do it at their convenience. Some people prefer to go bet on land casinos, despite the fact that they are still gambling online too. At least they can grab a beer at the Land Casino and chitchart with their friends or make new friends. Online casinos cannot entirely replace or dismiss land casinos. I don't agree. 

People still like to be social. There's a big difference between sitting at home gambling and going out and enjoying a few drinks with friends and maybe some blackjack or something with a buddy. At home you miss out on the social aspect, while those who would rather gamble from the comforts of their home don't have to worry about large crowds.

I don't think that land based casinos have too much to worry about, too many people love the social aspect and feel like online they could be being cheated.

Hey mate, It is the evolution of time and with the evolution of time many of the old methods are now disappearing especially the earlier offline i.e. land based gambling is changing with the evolution of time. Earlier people did not have such approach towards online gambling that's why people were forced to attract themselves to offline gambling but nowadays people are engaging themselves in online gambling instead of offline gambling as there are hundreds of benefits in online gambling.
Physical participation in offline gambling is mandatory because of the outbreak of various infectious diseases such as corona virus, there is a possibility of spreading in these areas and moreover, offline gambling has been banned in various countries. Offline gambling is being stopped and gambling authorities are giving more importance to online gambling. Offline gambling is slowly losing popularity. It is mainly due to the evolution of time and people's desire to get more benefits that people are losing attention to offline gambling.

Here's a crazy information for you OP, land based casinos will never go out of style, as long as there's a reason to launder money and the technology and methodology to chase after these laundering syndicates or individuals aren't perfected to a point that it's futile to do a laundering, land based casinos would still exist and we can't do anything about it because there's big names that are protecting these laundering operations that disguises themselves as casinos, sure they're making it look like they're a legitimate business and that they're making money in a legitimate way but we have to be realistic about it, there's no way that casinos would pass up on the opportunity to get more money because they're being used for laundering operations when the chances of getting caught is less than most you'd expect and you've got someone that's protecting you. So, yes, that's my take on land based casinos, they're never going to go out of style and with the advent use of VR, we might even see some of these casinos use VR to simulate visiting them physically.

As technology develops, physical casinos may be less popular than online casinos because nowadays most people prefer to use cellphones wherever they go and online casinos are easy to do anywhere, whereas in land-based casinos we have to visit the gambling house. I even think that one day gambling houses will become extinct and they will switch to online casinos because if they don't keep up with developments they will be increasingly left behind. Indeed there are some people who may still be able to visit land-based casinos but not as many as in the past so in my opinion, land-based casinos continue hoping that someone will come to visit, it would be better if he changed the concept to change it online so that the profits return to normal.

however online casinos innovate and provide a more sophisticated experience, offline casinos will still be in demand by people. because you can't replace the experience of playing at an offline casino, where the vibes, sounds, excitement of people playing, and interactions with other players, make the experience of playing at an offline casino more interesting. because the atmosphere provided by offline casinos means that many people still enjoy playing at offline casinos and this will continue in the future.

The future of traditional land-based casinos is here to stay. People still want to find the excitement of real gambling and be able to meet other people who also usually gamble. These people will still visit traditional land-based casinos.

The number of casinos may decrease because there are more and more online casinos. Online casinos offer new things to gamblers. As long as people still want to meet other people to gamble, offline casinos will still operate.

Something makes people still want to find fun in offline casinos. That's what makes them keep coming back to gamble at offline casinos.

Even with the young guys in this era, there are still people who believe in traditional gambling which is the physical casinos. Why? Because it is still more fun playing outside with other people than staying at home and being alone. Try both and you will feel the big difference. If I don't have kids now I will still go back to gambling outside.
Let's use poker as a good example. Is it really fun playing it online? If you compare it to playing outside, the difference is way far. Looking at the eyes of the people you are betting against, read your opponent's movements, their mannerisms, how they will react to your moves, and more. That's why I don't play much poker online because I don't feel the same energy as it is with people around you physically.

Many Average Joes didn't aware with tech winter, if anything in digital can replace every traditional stuffs, I'm sure tech winter will never happen because the demand is always increase. Since the world is suffering tech winter, it means many people still want to interact and meet people instead of chatting or video call.

Land based casinos would die if Covid disease is eternal, but the reality isn't.

Let me enlighten you of one thing, traditional casinos would continue to exist till forever,  reason being that most people you see in traditional casinos aren't there because they're unaware or insensitive to the comfort in using online casinos. Most of them are there for the company and fun they get from interacting with fellow gamblers. People are lonely these days and any slight possibility of getting good and loving company that makes them happy would not pass them by.

In my country, a lot of us can watch football from the comfort of our homes, but we choose to go to viewing centers, not because we can't watch it at home, but the kind of community activity we have and discussion we engage in viewing centers isn't something we would want to miss out on.

People need company, and wherever they get really recognized and welcome is where you'll likely be  seeing them more often and that includes offline casinos for especially older gamblers who are facing the loneliness associated with retirement from work and old age.

But I don't think there is innovation as far as games are? I mean you can play games in online that can be played as well in traditional casinos. I don't know but there is also waiting time for a free table in online as far as a experience.

And that's what land base brings, I mean it's granduer so why would gamblers be intimidated in the first place. And there is always a first time and when you set your foot in a land base maybe you don't want to go online again, just saying.

one of the experiences that online casinos can't replicate from traditional land-based casinos is simply the fun of betting with your friends.

traditional land based casinos will continue to live as long as in that country or in certain parts they still have a lot of fans and on the one hand, before online casinos became a hype, land based casinos were already the most fun place to provide a sensation that you can never get in online gambling and I I'm sure some people on this forum still visit land based casinos more often than online casinos.
It is possible that in the future traditional casinos will continue to follow advanced technological developments such as using digital payments or whatever is modern.

I will give following example as a comment on a situation. Remember when recently, due to covid everything were closed? Small business died, middle size business somehow managed to survive and restart. When walk in the city, I keep on seeing flashy offline casino signs. Isnt it a sign that offline casinos will be always demanded? Even right now, in digital age, when people income and interest changed, people still use casinos.

I think brick-and-mortar casinos, especially major ones, will always have some features that online gambling platforms won't be able to replicate. Alcoholic drinks served by beautiful women is one of them. The casino's indoor environment where everything is golden and shiny like inside an orthodox church is another. Those things will remain only in brick-and-mortar casinos, and those people who attracted by them will not switch to online gambling. The question is, how many of such people there are.

In a past post I even commented a little on this subject, the reality is that in recent years physical casinos have also had to evolve so that they can compete with online casinos, the owners of physical casinos have started to add more luxury and more design modern and beautiful in their casinos, making many people more comfortable inside the physical casino and feel more willing to play at the casino again when they go to the casino for the first time. To give you an idea of how well physical casinos are doing and making a lot of profit and even surpassing online casinos, see this article which provides very relevant data about US casinos

According to the article New York’s Resorts World casino performed well, see that New York’s Resorts World casino is a very large casino, looking at it

https://pvu.thebluebook.com/inc/img/qp/59003/tutor-perini-corp-resorts-world-casino-new-york-city.jpg

is very large, see more details about it

We might ask ourselves how something so big manages to keep running? because the cost of maintaining a casino like this is very expensive, but I believe that the answer to that question is that in online casinos there are not many rich people playing with many millions of dollars, while in these luxury physical casinos there are many rich people who play with many million dollars and lose 3 million or even 7 million dollars in just one night, now imagine if 100 rich people lost 7 million dollars in one month? it would be 700 million dollars for the coffers of the physical casino, when the physical casino pays for electricity, employee salaries, water, maintenance of machines and other operational costs, the casino's profit will still be very large. By this I mean that there is a market for physical casinos and online casinos without harming one or the other.

People will always want to go to the physical casino, just as they will play at the online casino. That's why, in my opinion, physical casinos are not threatened because of the existence of online casinos

In this modernity where everything has evolved into online, casinos have also changed to online casinos.  Both the online platform as well as brick and mortar casinos have their significance.  Like online platform saves your time and eliminates you from a long distance and also you can play your favorite games from your bed but the online platform does not affect the traditional one because the brick-and-mortar stores secure their futures.  In Canada, the casinos are now more advanced to give a better experience to the users, and also the experts always suggest the traditional casinos where a new one can learn more tricks and information than online platforms. 

Definitely, the digital wave exists. Disruptions are sweeping traditional models. Land-based casinos go beyond gambling. The tactile experience they provide is unmatched by apps. Poker face-off tension, chip weight, and air electricity can't be recreated with a mouse click

Casinos must evolve, not just survive. Their physical space is distinctive. Real-world interactions and belonging are wired into us. Leverage that. Integrating digital and physical elements. Imagine a real-world casino with VR installations and interactive tables for traditional games

Online casinos are convenient. Let's stop assuming they'll replace the actual thing's excitement. Both are gambling's future. Land-based casinos will create events so amazing you want to be there. This innovation will keep them current and provide an experience the digital world can't match

           -   I don't see anything new today in land-based casinos compared to online casinos. It's even more like online casinos are becoming a serious competitor to land-based casinos because more people are going online to gamble.

Due to the minimum amount allowed in the online casino, it is easier for people to enjoy it, and then the influencers promote it more than in the land-based casinos, so this is where the physical gambling industry can be left behind compared to the online casino.

Despite of those flourishing market of online platforms but still we do see those offline or physical ones that do continue to exist. Why? Its simply because there's really still a significant demand into it.
We do know that no matter how technological advancement would happen there would really be those people who would really be sticking into those old places but just like on what been said by others
that these places are really that doing their best for them to go with the pace on which we do speak about changes and other stuffs on which it would really be just that a normal approach
because  as a business owner then you cant really just that make yourself that getting left behind with the competition because if you do then you would really be having that huge impact
into your business and might be ended up on getting bankrupt.

It's obvious that it has evolved already, from the very first slot machines to the modern one wherein the experience is very different. And then we have VR coming in maybe in the next 5 years so like virtually you are there in the casino and playing and sitting along with others.


Yes, they are convenient, specially during the pandemic. But since land base are open now, I think it will continue to survived even if there is a big challenge from online gamblers. Sometimes those old habits are hard to break and as long as gamblers are willing to go out and have the ambience and the feeling of being inside a casino, they will continue to exist.

This is actually accurate on which it would really be that impossible that they wont really be finding any ways or methods that they could really be still in line with the competition even if we do say that online casinos are more in numbers now compared into those physical ones. If we do try to compare about the capital needed in between online and offline casinos then we can say that offline or physical ones would really be requiring more.
We do need those machines and having tons of staffs on which you could reallly be that so expensive in compared on creating an online casinos. Same with licenses on which i do believe that physical ones are really that more expensive.

Did make out some research and i dont know if these prices are accurate or not.
https://rue.ee/gambling-license/

Honestly speaking, I dont really care about land based casinos because it is not available in my country since gambling is illegal here so online casinos is the most used gambling places for gamblers in my country.
Lets say land based casino will disappear in the future due to technology, it will not bring any effect for me because I almost have no chance to gamble in land based casino.
However I think land based casino will still exist because I believe it has its own player based that will always love to gamble in land based casino than online casino.

From the word comparison, "online" vs "offline", both offers entertainment as it's gambling but it offers a different experience. Maybe online gambling will generate more income as it serves the world ^{(less countries that ban gambling)} while land base casinos only offered limited numbers of gambler. Both will co exist, and only the difference is which one gets the biggest slice of the pie.

Of course, they can manage, physical casinos have regular clients and these are people who are used to the ambiance of physical casinos because casinos are not only places to gamble but are also entertainment place and a venue where people socialize, they offer free drinks and free concerts.
This is where the venues popular and high society frequent and spend a lot of money making the physical casinos profitable.

Physical casinos are situated in hotels and tourist spots making them a top pick for tourists. Physical casinos are already an industry of their own, they can sustain themselves because they have a market to serve.

If you mean if those land base casino will be eliminated due to existence of online casino then I guess it will not happen. Both category offer different level of fun so most provably does people usually play online might stay on online betting since this give them easy access to gamble.

But for sure those people who used to play on land based casino will continue to gamble on that places since they would provably find that its more fun to play physically than staying online since I really admit that sometimes you get bored with it especially if you are the only one playing in your house. The experience is different playing on land base casino so for sure this business will exist despite of how those online casino gather its fame.

Let's face it, folks. We all love the glitz, the glamour, the feeling of a big win at a land-based casino.  But are these  luxurious dinosaurs headed for extinction in the digital age?
I think about it a lot and come up with this answer: Who wants to travel, pay for gas and overpriced drinks, just to gamble? Online casinos are open 24/7, from your phone or computer (additionally you can play from everywhere - bed, car, bench). Also this overcrowded casino space, always limited table space and crowded slots are irritating.
And the most important safety & security. I always worried about shady characters in the casino or losing my chips somewhere in the bar. As opposite, online casinos are more reliable in terms of money and security measures (I understand that compare offline and online casino safety systems are useless but this just view in general) and also I don’t need to worry that someone will steal my money just right on the corner.

+ Online casino offers endless gambling options, from classic favorites to even VR experiences. I heard some of my friends tried it and was very impressed.

Sure, there's something to be said for the atmosphere of a real casino. But is that enough to compete with the ease and options of the digital world?  Land-based casinos better adapt fast, or they might be left rolling the dice on their own survival.

In my opinion, no, physical casinos are still in use and have many fans, this can be seen from several areas that provide physical casino houses, my understanding is that playing in physical casinos and online casinos is very different, everyone gambles mainly to achieve their own pleasure and entertainment, in physical casinos many things are directly related to the user, online casinos are not the case.

Sometimes online casinos are boring, I see those who gamble over the age of 40 and above, many of whom visit physical casinos, in fact some of them don't understand how to operate an online casino.
Conclusion:
Physical casinos are mostly popular with people aged 40 and over, while online casinos are mostly popular with people aged 40 and under, meaning that physical casinos never disappear or fade over time.

These have run their race and I don't see them continuing their operations the old way, besides I believe going full time digital means cutting down on running costs such electricity, internet, phone bills and probably rentals which is a deal breaker to owners of the casino,and the fact that such a business setup opens its doors to more clients...brick and mortar casinos could be a thing of the past in the coming years but probably for the sake of having a physical presence to tell the world they are a real company and not a scam,  I guess we  probably going to see a downsized structure for this purpose.

Can't hold their ground for sure , unless it's a place like Vegas which is well known for such casino's I don't think they can pass on this opportunity to go digital.

It's not going anywhere anytime soon for sure. It might be easy to access and all the benefits like convenience, variety of games, bonuses, play anywhere, etc, it just doesn't answer to land-based stuff because of the feeling of actual people being around you or something.

They would manage to hold their ground literally  :D

There will always be physical casinos, and they will never be out of style, only in pandemics and war will they cease to exist, physical casinos will always have loyal followers because humans need to interact and socialize and physical casinos are there to fulfill that need.

Go check the physical casinos in many countries they are thriving and they are making a lot of money because they cater to people in high society, physical casinos are a complete package for tourists or for locals to have pleasure, they have games, drinks and they have people to entertainment them like singers and bands.
Physical and online casinos will continue to thrive as long as humans continue to gamble.

Honestly, I don't think there is much land based or brick and mortar casinos need to be afraid of. Even as online casinos continue to expand their dominance on the internet and their volume also continues to grow in a very quick pace, there is an advantage which are held by the classic casinos: they are nowadays a experience which is highly sought by tourist and actual lovers of the full gambling experience.
That is the reason why casinos care so much to keep their appearance and their aura of luxury, because all those who go to vacation and gamble are seeking something which they could not experiment in the same way by staying home and logging in their casino accounts.

So, regardless of the digital era we all live in, there will be always a place for brick and mortar casinos to exist and attract gamblers, at least that is my opinion on this matter.

a shift in gambler behavior preferring online casinos may already be occurring. But still, if you ask gamblers who play in these two types of casinos, their answers will be based on different levels of comfort and adrenaline.
Land-based casino lovers will still have their fans. especially casinos that are in countries with good gambling legality. those who regulate gambling will of course maintain this business. because the government knows how much of their tax income is from the gambling industry.
matter of interest, land-based casinos will continue to exist. not all gamblers like online games. because some of them think that online games are all full of cheating.

The advantage of land based which online casino won’t beat is the real casino experience. The purpose of gambling is to entertain players which means those real entertainment seeker gamblers will always preferred to play on land based casino instead in online games.

I believe online casino is popular to those who don’t have easy access to land based casino while the land based casino old customers is still the same so business will go as usual except that those doesn’t gamble before is now can gamble through the existence of online gambling. Both type of casino will co-exist because people still have a preference for a better form of entertainment through physical experience on gambling.

You’ve hit on interesting point about how the digital wave is reshaping gambling.  Suddenly, everything’s at our fingertips, anytime, anywhere. Online gambling’s big win is its convenience - fancy a game in your PJs at 3 AM? No problem!

It’s all about how the times are changing, and it’s fascinating to see where this evolution will take us next in the world of gambling.


It’s a cool observation, kind of like how we’ve seen bookstores and video rental shops evolve (or disappear) with the rise of digital alternatives.

And yet, a lot of people say, there’s a certain charm and experience to land-based casinos that’s hard to replicate — the buzz, the lights, and the collective excitement. Perhaps, they might become more of a niche, offering something special that you can’t get online.

Maybe the future of gambling houses isn’t about choosing between online or offline but finding a way to blend both. ???



Just like how emails changed the way we communicate, online casinos are reshaping gambling. As digital convenience grows, land-based casinos may become more exclusive, focusing on unique experiences beyond just gambling to attract visitors. While the digital shift is clear, there's still a special something about the live experience that keeps it in the game. So, while we might see fewer physical casinos, maybe they won't vanish entirely.

Yeap!

In the United States, for example, casinos are seen as a tourist destination, far beyond a form of entertainment. Every year, thousands of people visit cities like Atlantic City and Las Vegas to gamble.

In fact, many players who used to frequent physical casinos prefer the convenience of playing at home and more and more people are migrating their bets to virtual sites which are already a worldwide phenomenon that raises billions of dollars every year.

But, in my opinion, the existence of these sites does not completely eliminate the need or interest in physical casinos. After all, they bring completely different experiences to players and are still an extremely profitable market, in the same way that people continue to buy vinyl records or read physical books even though they know that digital media exist... the experience is completely different.

I think being the tourist destination of these casinos, is one major reason why a lot of these land-based casinos won't go away anytime soon. Just like in Macau, not only gamblers are visiting this place, but visitors are curious to get inside and try to play for fun. Do take note that a lot of them are also nongamblers.

A lot of young generation may be into online gambling these days, but you can't take away the fact that land-based casinos will still have its own niche in this billion-dollar industry.

Absolutely, the atmosphere of a land based casino is something truly unique and can't be fully replicated online. The sensory experiences, the excitement in people's voices, the clinking of chips, and even the possibility of enjoying a drink or chatting with friends - contribute to the overall thrill and enjoyment of gambling in person.
These social and sensory elements play a big role in why many people still prefer land casinos, even if they also enjoy the convenience of online options.
While online casinos offer their own set of advantages like accessibility and a vast selection of games, they cater to a different experience.
It's like comparing a live concert with listening to music at home, both are enjoyable, but in very different ways. The coexistence of both online and land casinos offers gamblers the best of both worlds, depending on what they're in the mood for.

I can draw parallels between topic question and discussed many times "going to restaurant when you can order food or cook yourself". Every kind of casinos has its own benefits and disadvantages. People go to offline casinos not only to gamble. Some people use it as a meeting place, to celebrate something, spend time. I would say banal things, but people go to offline casinos to communicate. Especially people in age, who prefer communicating face-to-face, instead of calling or sending message.

Where I live the government intervened in their benefit as allowed only 2-3 big ones and banning every other gambling platform including online and offline.One of them is in the central park and I see a lot of persons entering there to enjoy gambling,usually I see them at night when I go for a walk with my wife.This means that it depends on any government politics if they will support such casinos or they will shift their support to the online ones.

Real casinos will never die.
Since gambling is supposed to be entertainment it is much nicer to be in a casino than staring at your screen. The atmosphere makes the difference.
Also where else can you get free drinks, free food and maybe even a free stay if you gamble enough. In an online casino you maybe get some bonus which you will lose anyway sooner or later.
In a real casino you eat, you drink, you have fun with other people. It is a much better experience and you have cash in hand if you win, unlike online with waiting for withdrawals or getting accused for multiple accounts at some casino site and then not getting paid.  ;D

Online is just convenient, that's it.

I don't think physical casinos are a thing of the past the physical casinos are still there and they are doing great, In our country alone, physical casinos are doing great and because it's a profitable venture, our government is the one handling or running it, we still have the Vegas, the Macao, and other casino countries and they can still sustain.

They still have a huge market and no tall gamblers will choose online casinos, there will always be gamblers who will prefer to play at physical casinos because of the features only they an offer and the online one cannot.

Yes land based Casinos will exist in the digital age but we may see some effect for the online-based. Because now most of the people are towards online casino and one of the reasons is that it takes huge investment for starting land based gambling platform and land-based casinos can attract less people globally than online based casinos. On the other hand, online casino platforms can attract not only locals but users from the whole world and that is more profitable. But I think another thing is that the fun you get by physically gambling is not found in online casino, so I don't think land-based casinos will disappear in the future, I think both will exist.

If could recall correctly there was a post made over here that also directly speak this same thing about how online and offline casino. There was a comment there I red and I so much enjoyed it saying "His grandma doesn't like playing online casino rather offline, while using land base casino you get interacted with many people and ease your boringness". This is indirectly saying that there are people who still values land base casino more than online irrespective of how convenient its to you, you must need a physical casino to interacts with people at your ageing moment where you need someone to be talking with you than keeping mute while play online casino's. In Summary, whatever feature owns by online casino there are some old people who still values the land base casinos.

The online casinos are more advanced than shops casinos, on shops casinos you have to take a walk and before you can gamble at the casino but when it has more to do with online casinos you see a lot of privacy are there. You can be able to gamble at your own comfortable time and no one will know what you are doing if you didn't tell them. Sometimes I gamble in front of my friends but they don't know what I am doing because I do it with my phone, that's the 1 advantage of online casinos while bricks casinos as you mentioned doesn't have such privacy. One thing I don't like the online casinos is that you can hardly stop a child from gambling while own a smart phone.

Alot of old individuals will still prefer traditional casino that are physical but as the young gamblers in this present generation gets old they'll continue to be using online casinos and not shift to the traditional casino. I think why traditional casinos still have some users is as we still have some individual from the old days when there was no online casinos but only physical casinos still gambling. Online casino hasn't dominated everywhere as some places still have more of physical casino users.

I believe soon land based casino will seize to exist, every individual will prefer to be gambling from online and not visiting a physical casino. Online casino has more advantage and experience than physical casinos as you have the option to play multiple games but the physical casino is limited to few games that they have. Online platforms can offer you casino and sport betting experience and it'll be entertaining.

Yes, here in my country there are still 2-3 land based casinos which still that having tons of gamblers who do keep on going into these places on which most of them are really that rich people.
You could really be able to see that there are tons of people who do play basing up into those vehicles that do park outside. You would really be having that kind of being ashamed when you do visit out
into these places as if you are really that too poor in compared into those people who are inside. This is why i could really be still be able to say that it is really that still relevant even how
far we've been able to reach out when it comes to technology and other similar aspects.

There would really be indeed those people who are really that interested on going into physical places just because they do really have that a great time in going into
these places on which they would really be that preferring into these platforms rather than going online. There's so much difference in between the two.

No, brick-and-mortar casinos won't become a thing of the past because they offer more unique and exciting gambling experience, something that no online casino can offer. For example, when you visit such a casino (i.e. the land based casino), you have the possibility to gamble, spend time in a very beautifully designed environment that gives you a new, unique experience and makes you comfortable for being there. Being in home all the time is boring, right? Also, besides a good environment, there are too many hot girls that you can met in real life that wear expensive fragrances and have some conversation with them. You can't do that online, right? Maybe only on live blackjack tables but real-life experience is much better.

No, they won't follow the trends because they know their market are only for socialize people, not for introvert people. I don't see they will able to successful in online casino because there are already many big online casinos out there, they might loss in online casino and profit in brick-and-mortar casino if they own both of them.

Brick-and-mortar casinos are still making money even though they might earn less after new normal.

Currently, online gambling has indeed had much more significant development and progress than physical land-based gambling, but even so, there are still many well-known land-based physical casinos that still exist in certain of the country which have very many loyal customers.
Everything will be the same as technology where when there is one that is well developed and many people follow or use it, there will still be many people who use the old technology.
Likewise with gambling as it is today, many gamblers still choose to go to physical casinos to play or bet directly and can meet their friends so the fun will be much greater.
I think developments in physical casinos will only be in the types of games, they are developing various new games with more significant advances to be able to keep up with the online games that are currently provided by various providers.
And I still believe that physical casinos will still be able to survive in the future even if they lose in competition with online casinos.

In my opinion, traditional land-based casinos are unlikely to just fade away because what I know is that traditional casinos have been hereditary in development and are not easy to disappear quickly over time, whereas digital casinos are currently very popular and are in great demand by all groups of people. gamblers in general and not only that, apart from easy access, digital casinos have a variety of gambling games that are easy to play according to our abilities.

Casinos have a vibe: the energy, the crowd, the whole scene. Its not just the money, its the experience. And these days, with everything online, people are starved for that real-world buzz.

Casinos can win big, and I mean BIG, by being more than just slots and tables. Forget just gambling - we're talking shows, top-notch restaurants, maybe even classes on how to play. Its about that human connection.

And dont think they're going extinct, far from it. The smart casinos get it – people miss the personal touch. Its not about fighting the internet, it's about giving folks something they cant find on their phones. Thats the future. Its the Vegas experience revamped, and believe me, thats a winning hand.

With everything happens now, casino offline will still operate and will have their fans that comes to their casino. Even if online casino gets more popular, the offline casino will run their business and the casino in the famous city like Las Vegas or even Macau will have their fans. Maybe they will have the other strategies to makes their fans come back and still playing gambling using their machine because people still like to meet other people in the gambling games and compete to win some money. Casino gather many people who wants to have fun in their free time and spends some money to win some money. But it's not an easy jobs to have offline casino operate as usual because the competitions between each casinos will be tight and that will be solve by the casino owner.

Definitely it's the experience that is the key factor here why there are some people who choose to play with a land based casino over the online casino. If online casino has discrupted the land based casino, vegas would not anymore exist, but not only vegas exist they are still growing their revenue because people just love to experience the ultimate fun in gambling which can only be achieve when going to a physical casino.

let us consider this company for example...Las Vegas Sands..and look at its revenue growth.
https://www.macrotrends.net/stocks/charts/LVS/las-vegas-sands/revenue


That time, the online casino is already getting more popular as well, but the growth of his land based casino still is impressive.

Physical casinos will remain profitable as many gamblers still prefer this option and right now most of the physical casinos have their own version of online gambling site, so technically they are adapting the trend and that will makes them stay in business. If you will look at the local casinos in your place, you'll notice that most of them already have an option to gamble online, for sure they want to hit their target market as much as possible and follow the trend as well.

No!!! Land-based casinos will not die if a country is legal and will still have many visitors, it's just that the experience will be different from online casinos.

Land-based casinos have become the oldest and still exist even though online casinos have been widely popular among the public not because it will leave land-based casinos but physical casinos will have many innovations even if they do not enter the digital era their technology will change.

I can't imagine how fun they are with land-based casinos that's what many are interested in until now, not without reason there are always people who when playing gambling want a crowd then it's land-based casinos.

Until now, physical casinos are still popular with fans. You can differentiate, there are differences in what is provided by physical and digital casinos. As far as I know, physical casinos are still popular and still exist today. for example, for Asia Macau. in Macau, gambling remains a major destination for tourists and those who enjoy it. So far, they are still operating as usual except during the pandemic. What you need to know is, there are differences between physical casinos and digital casinos. physical casinos, offer something different to digital or online casinos. whether it's from comfort, the facilities provided by the casino, or all the other features that make people or gamblers still like physical casinos.

On the other hand, online casinos offer convenience and features that are available to make things easier for users without having to visit a physical casino. But sometimes, gamblers do both. I mean if someone wants to visit a physical casino, then they will do it whatever the reason. on the other hand, a person without having to visit a physical casino if they just want to play online. So far, I don't see or hear that physical casinos will become a thing of the past. after all, not all gamblers like online casinos. vice versa. So far, physical casinos will continue to exist even though they are also making innovations to attract visitors to remain interested in playing at traditional or physical casinos. although now, digital casinos are increasingly popular with many gamblers. However, both have their own fans and it's not uncommon for me to be able to play at physical or digital casinos.

Yeah and it means that as long as they can provide for some entertainment, there won't be any problems at all. People do not go to casinos just to gamble, they go there to have some fun, you see a show, you drink some booze, you smoke some cigars, you meet some people, you stay at a good hotel (usually casinos have their own hotel) and plenty more other stuff.

This is why it is quite important to realize that we are going to end up with something that won't be as easy, it is going to take some time, we should consider that as a big problem. I believe that we are going to end up with a much better return, we need to consider that as money lost but a lot of fun had, so it was worth it and that's why physical ones will always stay.

Digital age makes everything so convenient. You don't have to get dressed or leave the house anymore and people love it. You shop online, work online, watch movies online and gamble online.

Unfortunately for land-based casinos it's eventually going to be the end of them because people are getting lazy thanks to the Internet. Have you noticed that people subscribe to catering services now and they have all their daily meals delivered to the door. They don't even want to go out to a restaurant unless it's with friends or a date. This is happening to gambling and will eventually lead to these big casinos building their online brands and decreasing brick and mortar operations.

Maybe what will happen to physical casinos is the same that happened to television or books, people can reaches out to these two using the Internet which makes it easier for them to use and provides more options and variety of things but people still own televisions people still sell and buy them and companies still develop them, same thing for books you can read books from your phone directly but some people especially the enthusiastic ones, they prefer owning the book and reading it when it is between their hands because it is more fun to do so and it makes the experience of reading better and more realistic.

It is true that online casinos are the trendiest lately and the ones that receive more users and more players because we are in the Era of Internet and they make it easier for gamblers to play any game they want at any time and any place they wish while having multiple options and choices. But there will always be people who prefer on site casinos because it offers a better and unique experience and more benefits which might ensure their continued existence alongside online casinos.

Maybe the number of people who will keep going to physical casinos will decrease but there will always be the minority of people who will keep making them alive. And who knows what will happen in the future, industries continue to evolve and to adapt to human being's preferences and technologies.

We have to admit that online gambling is increasingly developing with service and accessibility, but physical casinos are still not outdated even though they are still in development to evolve digitally, there are two things that never existed in online casinos, namely physical casinos feel more sensation when gambling compared to online and physical gambling opportunities. depends on pure luck, because some opinions state the loss ratio is higher than online gambling.

Land-based gambling will definitely evolve to implement some digital features, but the concept of land-based gambling is preferred by many gamblers because it avoids the risk of casino scams.

Yes, online casinos are real competitors to offline casinos no doubt, but you should wonder why the seeming offline casinos still have their clients trooping to their location. although at a reduced rate I must mention. People have preferences in all activities of life, and also not everyone in less developed countries have smartphones to gamble online, so they still fall back to their traditional comfortable way of gambling offline.

Online casinos need a lot of adverts for it to be known cos no one knows its location if the link is not actively distributed, and traffic dragged to the site from many marketing mediums. Same does not go for offline casinos, as only a big signpost will do the marketing for them and drag their clients their way. Every form of gambling has its own unique advantage over another, although online casinos may have more clients due to its flexibility, but the offline casinos still give a sense of inclusion to the clients it satisfies and as such remains indispensable.

Yes they will, but they will become rare. The problem is in the numbers. How many casinos were there in the 90s, how many of them were closed in the last 30 years.
IMO this situation will progress, eventually leading to land casinos being reduced to popular resorts, towns famous for gambling like Las Vegas, cruise ships and such.
Online gambling will continue to take customers from these so called "physical casinos" which is a term that did not exist a few years back. At some point we'll gamble in virtual reality and nobody will want to go to a real joint.

Acknowledging your valid points about the advantages of online casinos, I'd argue that the essence of land-based casinos—the atmosphere, the physicality, and the experience—is unparalleled. They're not just static venues; they're increasingly becoming dynamic entertainment complexes.Beyond the thrill of gambling, they offer a multisensory experience: the unique sound of live games, the excitement of real-time reactions from both dealers and players, and the luxury ambiance. These elements create memorable experiences that extend beyond gambling, into entertainment and social interaction that online platforms cannot fully replicate, fostering a sense of community and occasion that many value deeply.

Also, it's crucial to discuss adaptability and innovation. Offline casinos have a unique opportunity to blend traditional charm with digital enhancements, creating hybrid experiences. By incorporating technology like VR to simulate high-stakes games in immersive environments or apps for easier access to table reservations and loyalty rewards, Additionally, adopting more sustainable practices could attract environmentally conscious patrons.

Hosting exclusive events, celebrity poker tournaments, and incorporating cutting-edge entertainment options could also draw crowds looking for unique experiences beyond just gambling. It’s about evolving with the times, offering something online platforms can't, a blend of tradition and innovation that makes each visit memorable.
Land-based casinos have the potential to become more than gambling dens, they can be cultural and entertainment landmarks that offer a mix of nostalgia and future tech.

Rare? I dont think so. They would really be that still on existence no matter what and just like been said that there are really those people whom really that still prefer on going into these physical places. Also, into those old time rich gamblers for sure they would really be sticking into those traditional gambling method despite of the current existence of online ones. It would really be just that depending into their preference.
This is why on the time that they would really be playing then they would really be sticking on where they have been getting used to. Technological advancement is something which is inevitable but people do have
their own choice and this is something that no one would bother you.

Its your money or fund to be used and its up to you on which one you would really be tending to get involved into. This is why it would really be best that
you should stick on where your interest really that sticking into and where you do find yourself that getting entertained.

The point you mentioned is true because the land-based casino seems to have reduced the number of gamblers who go there; only the majority who go to the physical casino are mostly rich people. Most people today have become more comfortable and confident about gambling through online casinos because they are hassle-free.

Today's land-based casino still exists, but maybe not as many people go to places like this, in my opinion. But there are still some who enjoy the land-based casino more because they appreciate the gambling they see more.

In this regard my opinion will be that the land based physical casino will be decreased in near future because most of the gambler are now moving to the online based casino casino because the easy accessibility and also they can also do small or minimum betting on the others hand the physical casino is likely to be more costly in all cases. But we can't comparison between them because each have different type of enjoyment.

Everyone has different preferences in gambling. There are those who really like online-based gambling, there are also those who like offline-based gambling. and there are even those who often gamble online, they really want to visit land-based casinos to play offline, even just once. Including me personally, who until now has never visited a land-based casino, and not because I don't want to visit one, it's just because there are no land-based casinos where I live. I really want to visit it, because I think the essence and sensation provided by land-based casinos is very different from online casinos. So I think, even though currently online casinos are quite popular and many people visit them, this will never limit someone from visiting land-based casinos and playing in them.

As far as I am concerned gambling is not the same for everyone many people prefer to play online casinos and many people bet in land based casinos. But in the digital age, online casinos are gaining more popularity. Everyone is able to sit and bet at their own pace and bet with their friends. Nowadays people prefer to bet from home rather than going to the casino. Land-based casinos may gradually decline in value.

I disagree though, haven't you step in a land base casinos lately?

There are still a lot of players going into it and land base are going strong. No doubt that online games are now on the rise, but the experience that traditional base can give to gamblers are in pale comparison when you play online.

The atmosphere in a land base casinos, but the socializing and then seeing gamblers around is a different thing.

Land-based casinos will always have a special atmosphere that you will never find online. This is a special place for entertainment lovers. After all, people mostly come to casinos not to win money, but to lose it. It's paradoxical, but it's a fact. People like to interact with other people within a special atmosphere, which they associate with luxury and prestige. Often casinos are combined with a restaurant, because both the casino and the restaurant are two establishments that are close to each other in spirit. When a person comes to a restaurant, he expects to see quality food, and after eating he is drawn to experience something unusual.

Exactly but what's crazy is that the more money you've got then the more likely you're to stay away in online casinos because there's just not that much they can offer you if you're a high roller, it's more practical to go for physical casinos because you can probably get a hotel stay there and see other entertainment besides the games that they offer, there's more benefits to gambling in a casino when you've got more money so I don't think we'll ever see a decline of these land based casinos, maybe if there's a lot of articles lef and right that would support your claim that they're in decline and we can physically see it, that's probably the time that I would change my mind.

I do think that online gambling will become even bigger and the future and take more market share away from the traditional casinos. The easy access from your home is just so much more comfortable that more and more people will start switching to online gambling as their main form of gambling in the future. However, even with a more dominate role of the online gambling industry I don't see any threats of physical casinos going to disappear. This mainly due to the fact that the two don't offer the exact same of services. When it comes to online gambling it's all about playing the casino games, there is no real interaction with other gamblers and we are not taking advantage of other services the casino could offer. During a visit to a physical casino we can drink cheap alcohol, stay in cheap hotels and take advantage of all the amenities that the big casinos like to offer to attract their customers. Going to Las Vegas is a full vacation with awesome shows, good food, nice scenery and also just hanging out in the pool. Gambling is a big part of that vacation, but it's not going to be our only focus. The whole concept of entertainment and having a good time can be offered differently in a physical casino that it can be done in online casinos.  

For the next few decades, I'm sure land based casino will still available to find but I'm not sure about 50-100 years later. Who knows that everything in this world will be all digitalized? Maybe the existence of land based casino will be less than before but to be completely disappeared, I think the chance is still low at least for now and the next few decades. What we can do is just predicting because we will never know the future and we will not experience ourselves if we talk about the next 50-100 years.  ;)

I'm a romantic, so in the old days I really loved visiting offline casinos! 
For me, such casinos are a symbol of luxury and wealth.  In ancient times, such casinos had a very strict dress code (tuxedo or formal suit for men and evening dress for girls). 
The atmosphere of those old casinos can be felt in the James Bond film "Casino Royale". 
Since then, everything has become much more democratic, however, the old atmosphere of luxury and excitement has largely been preserved.  Some people go to the theater and conservatory, and some to the casino. 
This is not cheap entertainment, but it is a certain life style, an excellent way to change one psychological state to another (more upbeat and festive).

The world is revolving and so are businesses including casinos, and this is evident in the way they are offering their services these days. It now depends on the angle you look at it, and what you are calling the brick-and-mortar casinos also have their presence online. This may not be all, but most of them, if not all, and some are dealing with both the brick-and-mortar and online (where people do not have to come to the casino in person if they want), even as those casinos operating the brick-and-mortar have already gone digital with their services (even if you would have to be there).

Above all, it depends on the business model of the casinos, and I can assure you that what some brick-and-mortar casinos are earning a year, some of those online casinos may not earn it in 10 years. This depends on the location, the standards and the extras like restaurants, lounges, accommodation etc they offer. Some brick-and-mortar casinos are home away from home with all the advancements and facilities you can think of, and they are making billions of dollars yearly.

So, it's not necessary that brick-and-mortar casinos go extinct for online casinos even as they (brick-and-mortar) make more money than them. They are only restructuring and upgrading their service delivery.

There are people who are really that making up some words or comments without even trying to step or go inside specially on gambling places on which do make out those kind of feedbacks or comments
without even having that real experience on which they do really make themselves look like a clown of their words because they havent been able to visit out into these places. Same goes here in our place or country that these places are still getting tons of gamblers who do really visit out into these places as if these are becoming that still a venue which there are tons who do love on going
into this place and the building itself is something that humongous or something that big that its impossible that it cant really get that kind of attention.

They are really that still relevant even up to this time because the gambling experience when you do play on a real casino is that totally different when you are playing
on an online casino. Having that actual face to face interaction with other player does bring out that so much good gambling experiene on something realsitic
rather than on playing in front of your own pc or computer.

With the way I see online casino may never overtake the land based casino because it has been in existence for long and people enjoy going to the land based. It gives more joy and fun compeard to online. Whenever you are on the land based, you may need to to play your game drinking whisky  and the environment is crowded with different players that you shear ideas with. And when you win there are some buzzing sound that makes you feel happy compeard to online. So what I think is that online casino may be higher In adoption than land based but land based will still be available but fewer in circulation.

Not everyone will use online casinos because we are still not at 100% Internet adoption yet, so definitely not everyone will play at online casinos and the presence of traditional casinos will still be very much around.


Although online casinos may have the highest traffic at the moment and even in the future, but that does no eliminate the activities and need for traditional casinos at some point.

Even though there are now many online-based casinos, offline casinos will always have a place for their fans. I think they will still be around because interest is still high even though there are now so many online casinos out there. In fact, almost every day I see big promotions about them.
I myself see that online casinos are usually sought after by those who don't have much time or those who are too lazy to leave the house and go to an offline casino. Meanwhile, those in offline casinos are people who are used to being there, they have a lot of time, they like to interact and so on. So in my opinion both will still exist and have their own fans.
Indeed, in this digital era, all access has become easy, we can do anything just in the palm of our hands. This is clearly something we didn't have before and now we can feel it. But offline is where it all starts, so I think offline will always have a place even with changing times.

Nothing will change sooner or later. Both have their benefit so it's just a matter of choice, if you actually think the next generation or the modern era will no longer partake in land based casino I think you're getting it wrong. For example, I make use of the online casino but sometimes I visit the casino shop so it depends on the gambler mood, not everyone will enjoy the benefit of the modern era when you don't have to walk or stress yourself before staking a bet likewise people who find online casino as stress free will be partaker.

The new innovative and industrial revolution of casinos will not automatically remove traditional gambling system and other old games in the casino industry. Those old games are old memories and whenever we see them they remind us our children days games. And we play them to have the excitement. The new generational games or casinos can't just go away with the.old model games. There must be some mixtures.
The traditional way of gambling will not go away just like that but it will be in coexistence with the new one. Even today the sports bookmaker centers are full with gamblers. Betting on different games and Playing some live casinos there. Some are there to play free games.

But the concept will still be the same right? I mean like in the evolution of slot machines which is one of the most played games in a land base casinos. We might see themes evolving but still the idea is there.


That's what should happen though, doesn't mean that we are in the new wave of gambling means that the old and traditional way is going to fade. It's a billion dollar business, maybe we have seen old casino being repaired and then a new one will emerge. So we can't say that they will be gone and the online casino gaming will take over. Las Vegas has still a lot of this traditional casinos and business are booming still.

It just differ on the venue then as online casinos are played at your home in front of your computer of cellphone but slot machines in the land based casino gives more entertainment as you'll see a lot of people playing also. We can do almost everything online, but still people choose to go to the venue to socialize and that's what online casinos can't give to us.

I know some may say that you can also socialize online, yes it's possible but if you experience the best kind of socialization in a land based casino, why would anyone choose to do it online, as much as possible, we like to maximize that value of entertainment we are getting, so we go for the best experience.

In our country some land based casinos exist in one specific state and for that it has become a tourist attraction. People go there once a year to have fun and that I believe is acceptable. Not being an addict helps, you have fun and enjoy your time with friends and some good food and drinks and gamble at the same time. They have events happening everyday and hence it is an all gala evening.

That is the beauty of the land based casinos over the digital ones. The physical feel is there and the vibes are present. They will have a niche followership and continue to grow.

More accurate way of describing the purpose of land based casino, just like vegas, they have huge gamblers because of the tourist who just want to have fun while in vegas. I think they'll stay for long despite the popularity of an online casino as they could make additions to make gamblers feel like they are in a commmunity to really enjoy what they wants to do. Even some who aren't really gamblers could try to gamble in a casino once they are their, it's not a main attraction for some but since they are in the venue, they'll likely get tempted and even if they lose (whch is expected) it doesn't matter as that is part of the fun.

Same here in Philippines. Multiple huge casino is located on a single area while they transportation available for players to service them to casino from pick up point locations in the province.

This kind of service makes that casino more popular to customers even from provinces because they have free transport fee if they want to gamble. Also casino here has hotels and restaurants which always have concerts and live bands from popular artists to attract further customers. They are copying casino in Vegas but they are targeting players from provinces to have access on their casino.

My previous company constructed City of dreams casino in my country. We have vouchers as employees that we can use in the casino amenities. Best feeling of being a VIP on land-based casino.   8)

The reality is that nostalgia isn’t enough to sustain the old model of gambling in the face of technological advancements and changing consumer demands. The new generation seeks games that are not only accessible from their devices but also offer interactive and immersive experiences.

Online gambling platforms increasing day by day and also users from physical gamblers are turning to online gambling platforms. But I do not think that all the people from the physical gambling area will lose as a lot of people are still interested in going to physical gambling sites. I think physical gambling may make people more social and online gambling casinos making people lonely day by day.

Preferences differ, we still have many social butterflies who would rather prefer to have physical interactions with other gamblers at the casinos than go online and be a solo gambler. As we know, most gamblers especially the elderly gamblers gamble in the midst of other gamblers just for fun. Eliminating physical casinos means Eliminating the passion these set of gamblers have for gambling, thereby making them look for other entertaining physical activities they can take up. Online gambling is not taking over physical gambling, both are special and perculiar to those who value them and they compliment each other. As for me, I will always go for land casinos as I derive satisfaction from gambling with other people physically.

Gambling activities that are done on land will never stop to exist even if the online gambling continues to become more popular. I do not just frequent my self in gambling at a local casino company on land because everything that I will go there to do, I can just do it on my phone, that's my own thought, but everytime you visit a land casino, you will definitely see the place being filled with people. Some people love to gamble on land while some people too prefer to gambling online. Before land gambling activities would be stopped, it will have to be banned, else, it will never stop to exist.

From the way you asked that question, it's like physical casinos are now doomed because of the growth of online casinos.

How can land-based casinos manage to hold their ground? In the first place, such a question isn't appropriate to ask since land-based casinos are continuously growing and becoming bigger. Just look at how big and active those physical casinos are at those popular gambling havens around the world.

Either online or offline gambling, as long as its gambling, expect it to become more big!

This is not an internet connection problem, this is a matter of skill manipulation when for some people, accessing with a mouse and keyboard is relatively difficult as well as they are not used to facing a computer screen to gamble. just a few minutes sometimes makes their eyes become tired and lose interest then rest. Land casinos can suffer from legal problems but the communication process is simpler, there is always someone to explain the rules, therefore, even if digital technology is more developed, it still cannot take away the market share of land-based gambling

Well, as time goes by, the newer generations are used to picking up a PC and not having to worry about leaving it, in fact the current era has always been one of the most competitive in terms of technology and everything that has to do with it. This type of things, like casinos, and everything that can be done via the Internet, it should also be noted that some countries do not have the Internet service in its entirety, that is something that must be managed, however I have seen how some Older people do not like the PC and even less like playing in an online casino, that is why they prefer to go to the casino, get ready and arrive at the time they say, for them it is better to interact with other people, play among all those people It is also a matter of taste and well that is respected, but I Consider that as time goes by more and more people are joining online casinos.

AFAIK a lot of gambling casinos out there's either backed by the government, or at the very least is supported financially and insured by the government should things go sour and they go bankrupt, and it's fairly easy to imagine them having billions of billions of dollars in money should they definitely go under and they need to get liquid ASAP. So it's not like the prevalence of a new form of gambling's gonna put them under the bus and make them lose their market.

Matter of fact I'd say that the ever-increasing popularity and relevancy of gambling while at home is bringing in more money to their casinos, instead of taking away its customers. Picture this, initially you're a shut-in introvert who would rather stay at home instead of going out there, you got invited to play at the casino by some friends and you're out there dissociating and not having fun cause your social battery's died. This never happens in an online casino cause at the end of the day, you're only really playing against yourself and a possible AI opponent, nothing else.

As a business owner then for sure you would really be having considerations on making out such option just because you are really that trying out to make revenue as much as possible which it would really be just that normal that you would really be trying out to reach those places that arent been reached out because even if we do say that they are on provinces but doesnt mean that they dont have money. Most of them are owning farms or simply does have tons of money on which it would be normal that they will really be trying to catch them up and make more money.
If its needed to apply that free transportation then it wont really be that much of an issue when it comes to expenses because they could really be eventually be able to make benefits out of it.
As a business owner kind of mindset then you would really be needing to have such act if you do really want for your business to prosper.

I believe nothing can be said about that at this point. We know that the world is moving towards digitalization at a great pace, and almost every sector is getting digitalized, people prefer it that way since they wouldn't need to be physically present somewhere to get something done.

Land-based and physical casinos are preferred by some people because they like the environment more and that is because the era we are living in has people from the past where people used to have all those things instead of the digital version. Now when we move farther into the future, the new and upcoming generations wouldn't know much about the physical counterparts of things such as gambling, so maybe they would prefer only online platforms and eventually, physical establishments will start fading away.

Recently I encountered a couple of new videos showing suspicious (magnetic looking) movement at Stake's live roulette.

See here:  https://www.reddit.com/r/Stake/comments/1bts1yh/stake_roulette_magnets/

If something like this would ever happen in a big established casino every person around the table would instantly call them out for cheating. But online, what can you do? Sure, you can make a video and share it, but what else?

In this example it is obvious there is something wrong. The ball suddenly jumping from a settled position at 7 into the 17 is pretty much impossible, the movement was way to sudden.
And because of things like this trusting online casinos is very hard and real casinos will always be the better option.

We will see the coexistence of both. While the digital upgrade is there but it won't stop the existence of the land or physical casinos because traditional never gets old or it does but gamblers will still find a way to experience the oldies but goodies way of gambling. Just think of it that even there have been a lot of online casinos out there, you, your family or even your gambling friends might just choose to stay at home but not to gamble online but to find a way for each of you to enjoy gambling altogether. You're seeing the difference why it's fun to stay with your friends and sometimes that's where it starts that one of your family will ask to go and pay some visit to the physical casinos.

I believe traditional casinos have a bright future! They offer unique experiences that online platforms can't fully replicate like the atmosphere, the social interactions, and the thrill of live games. While online gambling is convenient, many people still seek the immersive experience of a land based casino. I think we'll see these traditional spaces evolving, integrating more technology and offering new types of entertainment to complement what's available online. There's room for both to thrive, with each catering to different preferences.

Some traditional thing could be replace but not the way casino operates. They are divided with physical casino and online casino and the good thing is that not only they coexist, but they also grow together. Before the existence of online casino, only few are given an opportunity to gamble due to the limited numbers of a physical casino, but now that there are plenty of online casino especially the crypto casinos, gambling has become more popular, and it has continuesly benefited the physical casino. In short, online casino made the gambling industry more popular.

Yeah, I will have to agree with that. And that may be one of the biggest reasons why someone would still go to a physical casino, because of the environment. I can say it because I've been there, it's actually not easy to explain it but the vibes in a casino with lots of people are way different than how we do it at home with online gambling. Even those live gambling where you see the players, cannot be compared to the environment of being there physically.
But still, it's how we prefer it right now and for me, I do like gambling at home, maybe because I am too tired to go to a casino even though I know it will be a lot of fun. Plus, when you start having a family, it's difficult to get a good reason why you will go out. There will be lots of questions and I don't like being on that position.

Gamblers have their own preference some want to play face to face, while other wants to stay anonymous.
Others want to meet up with other gamblers or socialize, while other wants to play silently, and have access anywhere and anytime they want.
So I agree that both land base and online casino or gambling could exist, they don't need to compete or one of them to disappear.

Although I agree that they will grow together, I think that eventually there will be an overtaking of the digital platforms over land based casinos. As younger people, who by definition feel more comfortable in digital environments, grow up and choose online casinos thanks to the greater convenience they offer, we will see a paradigm shift.

I don't mean that physical casinos are going to disappear, not even that they are going to lose business, but they will get a smaller share of a bigger market. Not to mention hybrid businesses that will take advantage of the best of both worlds (some are already doing it).

Online is going to be the future of everything but it doesn't mean it will replace land-based casinos and to one extend if we want to have to complete experience of gambling still the land-based casino is the preferable way but people adapt to online casinos for it's convenience and accessibility. Time passes the number of users is expected to increase in the whole gambling but most land based casinos apart from the region where it's known for gambling will be affected due to the evolution change.

Yes and they can co-exist. There are still players that prefer the old and traditional way, so they love to go to land base casinos and experience the ambience and the noise of it. But for the majority of us, who loves sports betting and casino games, online could be our thing specially in the pandemic. And there are countries that are open to gambling but have limited brick and mortar casinos. So not everyone can travel and play although there are promotions of casinos that bring players around. But in the end, both online and offline casinos can exist in harmony as they are still gamblers favor either of the two.

I think traditional gambling still has its place, although customer market share will certainly be affected. The feeling of gambling live, holding shovels of money is still the most exciting feeling, online gambling cannot be replaced. Traditional gambling is still a place for tourists to come and play. They see it as a form of entertainment when traveling. Instead of playing online, they can play anytime.

However, I believe that traditional casinos themselves will also have reforms to keep up with the trend. They can expand to an online business model to adapt to market changes. This can include developing mobile applications, betting websites, or even online casinos.
Besides, they can enhance player experiences - things that online gambling cannot provide, such as real casino atmosphere, interaction with live dealers, and live entertainment events.

Not all people, I can assure you of that. I'm not, for instance. And it's not only me. There are many people who prefer their home environmet to anything alse, and what others see as perks, they see as drawbacks: shiny surfaces, loud talks around them, alcoholic drinks served by seductive women, you name it. It's not for everybody, you know.


That's what I agree with. AT least during the nearest 50 years there will always be some people enjoying land-based casinos.

Cellphone isn't just simply preferred but they need it primarily for communications. Other features included there are what we can say only just a bonus. If we think about it, there are still land-based services like computer shops even though mini-computers are now dominating but their numbers were maybe lesser now compared to before. I believe the same faith physical casinos will experience. At least they won't be extinct totally.

Physical casinos can include new stuffs but they still can't imitate the comfortability that these online casinos bring. As much as you do, for sure that many physical business owners have also think of the idea to switch online and maybe many of them are now already there.

This could be one of the best example of roulette being rigged and with a magnet. I have been also playing roulette for many years and I have a suspicious and so as others that it is being manipulated, specially with the advent of Evolution roulette games. So yeah, it's hard to trust online casinos when you can see that they are blatantly cheating their patrons. In any case, I still do go to land base casinos from time to time and just enjoy and play roulette and other games if I wanted to have a break with online gaming. So I guess there will still be players here who will go and experience the physical game.

Land based casinos aren’t going anywhere and I think they’re going to be around for as long as people gamble.
No doubt, online gambling platforms like you noted, are gaining popularity due to its convenience. When most of the inhabitants of planet earth was indoors due to the covid pandemic, online casinos gained more popularity as people had little options than to use them. Now that the pandemic is long over, a lot of people that switched to online gambling remained.

But the experience gotten is not the same and never would be. That’s pretty much why land based casinos would still be with us. We’ve got people who cherish the experience and the thrill gotten from land based casinos that can’t be gotten from online casinos.

They are not completely gone as that, we only have the way they operates being minimized due to the increasing demands for digital or crypto gambling casinos which is the online form and version of these physical or land base gambling, we are definitely going by the way of the new trends in the gambling sector, people want to make use of the digital online casinos because of its affordability and accessibility at all times, the convenience and privacy is also part of the reasons why we are having much of the online gambling casinos while the physical or land base are still existing base on location and demands.

There is a intriguing atmosphere the brick and mortar casinos provides that can't be felt by the use of online gambling. Its a feeling that is inexplicable which is why there are gamblers that will at any time choose on-land based casinos over on-line.

IMO, online casino is not here to send on-land casinos to extinction but as a way to compliment or more of an alternative in areas or situations where on-land is not accessible. One thing that made online casinos popular and embracing was the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic, so it's only in situations as that we will have on-land casinos lacking patronage.

They are going to slowly decrease though. Over time, traditional casinos will eventually just fewer and fewer and may only exist in major cities where tourist travels a lot. It's going to be the place where people celebrate their stag parties and business success and then attendees are just going to stay on the casino til the night is over. Physical casinos will slowly die.

What is the problem for me and/or you if the land-based game is not stopped? Hence I think land-based gambling should continue longer than online games. From lan-based games, people can have more fun than online-based games.

AFAIK even before, land based casino main target is huge city because that is the place which wealthy person usually leave or stay for work. Land-based casino customers target is still the same and they are still performing well even with the existence of online casino. There’s still a lot of new casino being constructed in our country after pandemic since there’s still a demand for this.

Online casino become a hit because it’s target audience are those people that can’t afford playing in land-based casino due to different reason but that doesn’t mean the old players of land based casino will choose online while they are already playing the upgraded version of casino experience.

It’s just the market for gambling industry grow significantly due to the existence of online casino while land based casino target market is still the same.

Online casinos just gives an options for the gamblers to playing gambling and because the easiness of the internet that makes online casinos can grow fast, especially when Covid-19 attacked. Offline casinos still have its fans and people go to the casinos to playing gambling like before because they feels that offline casinos can gives pleasures to them. Even though offline casinos slowly decrease but that doesn't makes offline casinos extinction because people still wants to feel playing gambling with the other people.

Maybe in the future, offline casinos will not survive, especially if people doesn't wants to feel excitement when playing gambling with other people. But as long as people wants to compete with the other people, offline casinos will still exist

It is true that there will be more of land-based casinos shutdown their operation due to the lack of players.
But land-based casinos will still exist, especially in big cities, cruise ships, entertainment venues etc.

Many people actually go to land-based casinos with friends or family, Im a bit confused if you say that land-based casinos will be extinct because of that reason.

The casino is act as the house, players place the bet against the house, not player vs player.

Even though I've never been to a physical casino, I understand your point of view. Casinos have a status symbol of wealth and provide the traditional feeling of gambling, offering an experience that online gambling cannot offer. I personally wouldn't bother visiting one, firstly because there isn't one nearby, in the whole island to be precise, and secondly, because they're made to make you lose track of time and eventually your money.

Online casinos are perfect for the occasional gambler, offering a convenient and direct experience.

With shift or none, the land based casinos will still be the go-to of many gamblers that don't like to gamble online because they don't want to be found out by their wives or husbands that they're into gambling because of the history that might have seen on their phones, and computers.

But the traditional way of gambling will never be gone. Yes, the digital age is there and this innovation seems to be unstoppable but we do have our hobbies and ways to enjoy gambling.

If it takes you to go to the physical casino and that's how you like gambling because it gives you the sense of luxury as not many goes there then go for it. And if you sense some feeling of convenience, online gambling is the way.

But as long as people wants to competes with the other people, offline casinos will still exist as you said. This will not stops people to continue playing gambling in the land-based casino. People will still playing gambling on the land-based casinos even if online casino grows for more because those people can found excitement while they playing gambling. That's because people needs something that can makes them meets other people and talks with them while they are playing gambling. This will helps them to remember how exciting playing gambling together with them and that will be their good memories when they are old.

This is surely one advantage of online casino against offline games. For online, right there in your comfort zone in your house you are just there and playing your game at ease and your own comfort which is not same as offline. Offline game houses are mostly inconvenient and having much traffic of people who may not have taken their bath for a long day. This is what discouraged some people that I know when they want to bet , they would rather make the prediction and send someone to go make the stake for them. It is just few online gambling house that are convenient depending on the area that they are established.

Not only that because offline gambling or traditional casino may intimidate if you were new. You will encounter big players, players who are veterans, those who you can't make eye contact with. So if you cannot deal with such people, yet you want to try to gamble and make as a past time then online casino may truly work best for you. Yet hose intimidation will just be at first glance. You'll soon realize that those people are good people to bond with especially if you have same interest outside gambling. That's the upside of traditional casino, you are more incline to interact with other bettors.

Some online gambling casinos has also have a land based casino just should Incase you choose to gamble offline you can decid to visit their land based casinos and make sure to gamble there if that's what is exactly preferable by you. I doubt if land based casinos will be extinct resulting from the gas rising presence of online casinos as not everyone has got good and adequate access or knowledge of the online gambling casinos so they will still have to visit the land based if they ever have a need to want to gamble.

Some persons are very much comfortable gambling offline in the land based casinos as they feel it's more advantageous as compared to the online casinos and so they still maintain their stans gambling offline such set of people will always make sure the land based casinos remain in business and not go extinct.

I've never considered such a reason for going to land-based casinos, but now I think it can be a legit one. Indeed many people are afraid of their relatives to know about their gambling. I said "many", but of course I think it's a minority. Most gamblers are responsible gamblers using gambling for their entertainment and they have nothing to hide from their close ones.


Unfortunately, there are a lot of "casinos" in the world that will hardly give you sense of luxury. They look cheap from the outside and they look cheap inside. The only reason for most visitors of such places to go there is that they want to hit the jackpot there, but in reality in such places even if you hit it you will hardly get it. So, I'd recommend to avoid such places and if you want to go to a physical casino - go to a luxury one.

It intimidate you to the fact that you will be challenge on your surroundings and you would try to impressed a lot of people watching especially if you are playing a long side with lots of people around and also with your friends. This attitude could able to contribute on possible bad faith that we get that's why sometimes I hate to gamble on land base casino especially if my capital is not huge since I will be urge to gamble more then grab some money to continue since there's a lot of temptation around the corner. That's somehow its good to have online casino since we can gamble with convenience and always can monitors all activities we do including the funds we use and no people around will tease us to continue.

I would love to visit Vegas and its casinos not for the sense of luxury or non luxury, but to get that unbelievable experience of being in such place. Any place in the world with casinos of such level would do (like Macau, Monte Carlo or Amsterdam casinos), but Vegas is one of my dreams. I would go there just for the shows, cuisine, entertainment, shopping, services, general atmosphere there.

I'm with you there, brother, that's one of my dreams too.  Actually I'm afraid it would be a disappointing experience for me, but I would love to go to one of those places one day. To be honest, I didn't know there were casinos in Amsterdam. I've been there 5 times and it never occurred to me that I could visit one of the places similar to those in Macau, Monte Carlo and Vegas. I'm still not sure whether the casinos in Amsterdam are of that high level. What do you think?

I think that land-based casinos would hold their ground since it is within the scope of tourism.

Las Vegas is known as the gambling capital of the world. Not only does it attract users around the world, it also becomes part of tourism where people would visit such place in order to experience the gambling atmosphere that Las Vegas exclusively offers.

Though the popularity of online gambling has become prominent over the last years due to COVID, the socialization and experience that you get to feel when visiting land-based casinos cannot be imitated in an online setting.

Instead of thinking that online gambling would soon overturn land-based casinos, they can always exist mutually with each other. No one has to go as they can exist with side-by-side catering to different types of people who prefer gambling otherwise.

       -    Yep, you're right. Right here in our country, where the casino is located, is surrounded by condo units, malls, and villages. Right here we can see their target market, which is middle-class people or rich people.

But even with their land-based casino strategy, I also think that the physical casino is still overcome by the online casino because their market is worldwide, where the rich and the poor can play gambling even at home, and even a small amount can be played.

The same goes for me, those are one of my wild dreams.
That's why I don't they will just be forgotten even if a lot of online gambling sites are available in this era. Physical gambling sites are tourist spots too not just because of their gambling place but also because of their hotels and cuisines.
The idea of being there sounds exciting and I think a lot of people especially the older ones want to go there if possible but since many things happened including the pandemic, the perspective changed. Still, it will be a place that will be visited and I don't think they will lose customers just because the new age of online gambling came. The environment is their ace and it will be the one best reason on why they could still pull customers.

First of all, try to erase in your memory what you have seen or knew about Las Vegas and try from the blank scratch. I havent visited casinos in Amsterdam, but I've heard from the guide that they are nice. If they were like a regular casino in your town - specious room with 4-10 tables and an area of slots, then the guide would not have even pointed about casinos of Amsterdam. I went to google and found some nice pictures. They are not like casinos in Vegas (that is why I suggested to erase Vegas experience), but definitely not like regular casino. At least it is not a one big room or place that 100 people would fit, but an area in Amsterdam.

Thanks for your advice! Next time I'm visiting Amsterdam I will definitely go to one of their casinos  to get a closer look at how they operate inside. I will erase everything about Las Vegas that was put there, in my memory, by movies, documentaries and books to not feel disappointed after visiting real-life casinos and comparing them to my false expectations. Thanks for that advice too. Overall, I think visiting land-based casinos from time to time wouldn't hurt anyone, but, of course, if you were diagnosed as a problem gambler, even just once in your life, you should stay away from those places.

Well compared to Macao there is not really a comparison. Vegas is like 20 years ago for me and I know a lot has changed.
Macao on the other hand was last year and I was really impressed.
Also it's a nice city, not only casinos and stuff like vegas. A lot of history, culture, traditional food, and more.

Coming back to casinos over there, there are so many degen gamblers from China, it's amazing. Also a lot of high rollers in the open throwing around cash, haha.
Seeing and experiencing this is so much more fun than sitting in front of a screen and pissing away money, haha. Even without money to gamble this is an experience, online, when you don't have money, there is no reason to even open the site of casino in my opinion.

You mean, casinos in Amsterdam are much worse compared to Macao? You mean they are like Vegas 20 years ago? I'm sorry. I don't understand what you trying to say. By pictures I can say they are a bit old-looking. You think the same? Have you been there?



As far as I can tell, you've been to Macao, that's for sure. Can you tell me, do they have slot machines that impressed you? Do they have great animation and sound like modern online slots? What is better in them compared to online slots in your opinion?

I think each of then deserves a visit of its own. ;D

The ambience, cuisine, and the architecture of each of the casino cities out in this world have their own taste and its not worth comparing one against another head to head.

I my country there is a "water-based" casino but I haven't been there yet. But I would definitely visit the Vegas one sometime in the future. These are once in a lifetime experience and something you dont forget for the rest of your life.

For me and anyone else that uses gambling as a form of entertainment I will always go to brick and mortar casinos.  Online has its niche but going to a casino for the bells amd whistles.  Usually they have great bars and restaurants.  There's always other things going on like live music and comedy shows.  The people watching is spectacular and there's just a different vibe to it.  I think both online and brick and mortar have theor places here.

Going back into the past or lets say 15 years way back then we can really tell that online gambling isnt really that as rampant as of todays or as common it is, which simply shows up that technologies rapid growth
not only just that on gambling industry did make out such progress but also in other industries as well which it did really show that kind of increase when it comes to recognition and integration on which its not really that shocking that they will really be that becomes big but of course it would really be just that still depending or basing up with the demand because this is the primary thing on what makes and industry getting bigger considering on those changes but also rather on how people or the community would really be seeing this to be something relevant.

Even if i do love online gambling with cryptos but i cant really be able to deny that this is really that indeed true on which when it comes to best experience about gambling then going into physical
places is something that i do prefer or do like to experience. Ambiance is really that different plus having that socialization on which it would really be something that different
when you do play in front of your PC on which it is something that boring. The only issue on going into these places on which not all would really be that confident on going into
or the availability that it would have on a certain place which we know that not all location have those kind of physical casinos.

If traditional land based casinos don’t upgrade themselves, then the time will come when people will stop using them, and lots of people will divert to online casinos. But in my country, most of the local gambling companies also have an online version. If you prefer to gamble locally, then you can visit their local shops, and if you don’t like that, you can also visit their sites and gamble online. Most of them also have websites that you can easily download and gamble on. I think they know that with time people will stop visiting local casino houses, that’s why they decided to create an online version.

A hybrid mode of casino operation does sound tempting for the gamblers and is possibly the most future-proof method for any land based casino to continue their legacy in competing with the online casinos mushrooming everywhere on the internet.

Still land based casinos have their own elegance and indeed are tourist sites if visited. Again this touristy visits do not bring in good income for the casino itself and hence the regular users are the bread and butter.

To keep that group intact, a hybrid mode may be a step forward.

Yea, of course both online and mortar bricks casino have the satisfaction that they give to gblers gambling in any of the casinos. Online is unique because it give absolute privacy to your gambling activities and prevent people around you from knowing that you are gambling if you don't want them to know. It is also very easy to access.

Mortar bricks casino have its own fun when you are there to gamble. The environment is very entertaining a d that is what most people enjoy when they are gambling in them. Social life is also another benefit. I love both of them and it is fun to gamble in these two casinos.

Basically, both have different differences and convenience. Online casinos are fun for those who don't like crowds and prefer to gamble at home and online casinos can also be played anywhere as long as they have an internet connection, but we cannot ignore physical casinos because physical casinos are also has its own level of comfort for users who prefer to interact with other gambling friends and need fun, so a physical casino is a suitable place for those who feel bored at home and want entertainment outside, so it depends on each situation.

Physical casinos will never feel left behind even though nowadays everything is digital because physical casinos will provide features that online cannot do so physical casinos will always be there even in the future perhaps with more modern systems and more modern games too, even with bars and the entertainment provided by land-based casinos alone, online casinos have lost because online casinos do not have a place for entertainment like that offered in land-based casinos, so even though land-based casinos are more expensive, land-based casinos are the winner for fun.

This is where it really gets interesting, these offline casinos have also welcomed online versions to support their offline struggles and stay competitive, so they don't loose loyal clients, instead they can gamble online when they are unavailable for offline gambling. I really know some offline casinos who started their online versions with just football betting, but logging back into their site recently, I observed they've included, roulette, dog races, horse races and so many more casino-based games. The key to staying competitive is continuous upgrade.

There is also this interesting feature of the local casino helping you deposit without using you bank card to directly fund your account. You can go and deposit with them and they would fund your account attached with them for you and you can play online, but they're responsible for paying you in cash or transfer when you win the money unlike online casinos which you must withdraw to your digital accounts thereby increasing the flexibility of engagement for their clients.

Many offline casinos are really advancing. I seriously doubt online casinos can ever be able to totally replace them or put them out of business

Yes and that has all been proven now where several land-based casinos that have quite large finances have made a lot of developments to support every desire and convenience of gamblers, in fact they have actually made their business much more attractive.
Various casino games with the latest machines and some much more modern appearances make gamblers interested enough to keep coming to land-based casinos, what is provided is almost the same as online casinos.
I have seen places and several gambling places that are filled with various technological advances, and of course all this is just for competition in the business so that it can be much more competent and able to stand out by having many loyal customers in this very tight competition.

Some local casino may not be able to adapt in the online activities and some new features in the online casino but not really that they would not be able to act in some kind of places but they will be able to do some little different things, it is not totally different what's on little differences if some set of people understand the normal casino without the online I guess they need some explanation to be able to use the future that comes with the online casino so it can be able to match with all the already know and they can operate the same as that they are using already try to put it in online way and be able to make use of the online accessibility it seems to be easy but it always be easy to those who already understand the online to make use of the physical casino.

That's normal because to develop their casino and adapt in the online activities needs resources that doesn't have by many casinos out there. They must have teams that could works with internet better so they can thinks and search for the right ways that they can use to grow their casino. Besides that, some offline casino is not ready with the competitions on the internet and they thinks that they will still use the offline ways to grow their business.

Many things that needs to be prepare by offline casino to use the internet as their basis to expand their business into online. They will needs to use trial and error to see if that's the right things that they can do because expand their business into online is something new for them. If they thinks that is difficult, they will not force themselves to expand into online business because they can still running their business by offline.

Even COVID didn't manage to effect  local gambling shops deeply. Now, in the post COVID era they are continue to flourish. I personally spend 80% of my gambling time in land based casinos, remaining 20% is allocated for online gambling. Physical casinos have plenty of pros for me, like the physical communications with my friends, who are also gamblers, the option to listen to jazz combo, the freedom to walk around various gambling pits, etc..

I am not surprised that land based casinos still are in demand today. Even though we are in digital era, most of use have smart phones, the people who can be called as "below average class", still prefer to go and gamble offline, instead of doing it online. I dont know why people prefer to do that. Maybe because they dont want to spend time at home/in same area.

From my vision, land based casinos still have that charm, that pushes people to go there and physically be involved in the game, instead of clicking and tapping (they click and tap during work, while doing daily needs, and when they gamble from pc or mobile, little changes in their behavior).

I agree with that and that's the fun of going directly to physical casinos. But nowadays I usually just stick at home. It feels like it's the right thing to do and besides, I can do house chores while I am at home and also doing work. Everything is there as long as you have the internet and I don't even spend gas money or the taxi fare just to go somewhere else. If computed for the long term, it will still be a lot of money. But, there are times I am thinking about spending some time in a physical casino too just because I miss it. Maybe one time I will do that and try to enjoy that one day leisure as much as possible.

Traditional/physical casinos has their own players meaning they can get attention on their own way while online casino also have their players
and trust me if you are a traditional casino players? you will not find the enjoyment in online because of the people around you and also the service from the casinos.

Actually im starting to get boring in online gambling now not like in the last couple of years that I am present in my favorite casinos? nowadays I am just visiting them once a week at least.

I'm one of those who really frequented land based casinos pre-covid. But now, yes I do go out sometimes to play in land base and see the atmosphere and ambience. But I guess I adjusted myself because now, I do online games as I already enjoyed it because some of the games that I played is already present in online so why bothered to go outside?

Although me and my mates and our wives, will have that one session at least once a month to go out and just enjoy, have some free drinks listen to live entertainment and that's it. After that I'm going back to my regular playing online with slots and roulette and bacarrat.

anything concerning digital platforms is that they get updated every year, mostly when it comes to casino gambling platforms expect something bigger they'll surely hold their grand. And one thing is that the online casino betting is being socialized to all social media, so what you should be asking is that is online casino betting taking all over the global and all over the social media in future. And the answer is yes.

I think it's like that, when there is a physical casino running of course they will definitely think of ways to develop the casino and by following technological developments they also create an online-based casino whose aim is to reach more people so they can gamble without having to step foot into a physical casino. and I think physical casinos definitely have online casinos. but currently, as long as I do online gambling, I find lots of online casinos circulating, even more than a hundred of the online casinos that I have been looking for actually exist, then suddenly I think that means there are physical casinos that are the same in more than a hundred places, whether that's true or not. No, I don't know that myself. but there is also the possibility that online casinos do not provide physical casinos, but if it is a physical casino, I think they definitely have an online-based casino.

That's true, there are indeed some or maybe all online casinos that provide this method by offering a download to make it easier to do so. Of course, everyone feels bored, whether they are bored because they gamble too often in physical casinos or vice versa. but what is clear is that currently, in my opinion, many people gamble using online casinos because they are easy to access.

Along with the development of the era, online casinos are very popular than land-based casinos because now online casinos have an extraordinary attraction to attract the attention of gamblers, besides easy access, online casinos can also be addictive in playing so quickly, while land-based casinos have a special level of skill that must be possessed by every gambler, land-based casinos also have a strong attraction, but in terms of technical aspects and access, land-based casinos have now almost faded over time.

No one can maintain consistency in this business, especially with technological advances which are increasingly developing day by day, I also often see many land-based casinos providing online casinos too because the competition is quite tight between online casinos and land-based casinos, making both of them work together to makes it easy for gamblers to access gambling easily and at any time everyone can gamble, I think there is no competition between land-based casinos and online casinos, they are actually working together in developing the gambling business.

To be honest, many gamblers who often gamble at land-based casinos switch to using online casinos because they are not only bored but they need the convenience of playing without having to leave the house, sometimes people now leave the house too much so they are more comfortable gambling inside. relax at home without having to meet lots of people like in land-based casinos where there is a lot of cigarette smoke and other things that maybe no one likes. Moreover, not all gamblers smoke.

Land based casinos are popular too but they are more prone to heavy regulations that makes them not as profitable or easy to operate. I have had a few experience of physical casinos and it's enjoyable even when you are not participating. Some do need you to have some chips to enter while some offer free entrance. The vibe itself makes you stay longer. The reason most of the casinos in my area stopped are due to excessive regulations and high taxing from the government. Online casinos pays much less taxes and their operating cost too are very low. While land based casinos have a lot of staff to pay for and are highly costly in maintaining.

That's true, I don't even need to look at other countries to see the number of people who gamble online, because just in my environment, almost every family will definitely do it. Apart from that, you can see from social media that many people do their gambling via live streaming, which is probably because they are looking for profits in that way, and there are also many people who see it, with this I think that online casinos are currently very popular among the public, including There are children and old people who do it and even know the slogans that are popular with online casino gambling.

Indeed, with the development of increasingly sophisticated technology, there are many things that can be done using just a cell phone, and with online casino gambling being one of the things that can be done just using a cell phone, it's not surprising that many people are currently doing online casino gambling because it's true that you Say, with easy access, nowadays everyone tends to spend their daily time using cellphones and the internet, obviously this makes it easier for them to get to know and do online casino gambling. with land-based casinos, maybe they are less popular in terms of popularity, but I'm sure land-based casinos are still running.

By concluding your opinion above, it is true that the development of the era has a great influence on people's lives, especially in relation to gambling, in this sophisticated digital era, people can easily access and run it easily and without obstacles, even young people are now good at playing gadgets so that they really support taking advantage of this digital era without guidance from parents, but of course, apart from the sophistication and greatness, there must be weaknesses and concerns. What is meant is that if young people are not supervised firmly and wisely, it will damage the generation of young people in the future.

Let me start by saying that online and physical casinos could be mistaken these days if care is not taken. The reason is that some casinos started online before they decided to have their physical presence with playing centres, and due to the numerous franchise arrangements, they litter everywhere, particularly in my country. So this kind of setup has both physical and online presence, and I am sure that the taxation and regulation will be meted the same way on them. This now takes us to pure land-based casinos where you can't play online at all, well, I do not think there will be any difference in regulation and taxation, except for jurisdiction differences.

You may be operating your casino in Cuba and be regulated in Asia. This is why the regulation and taxation may vary, but if the two (Online and pure land-based) are in the same country under the same law, and without some government's privileges and tax holidays, then they will pay proportionately. They will pay based on many metrics that are the same which include their customer base, capacity, income etc. So, this is not about online casinos paying less than the land-based countries but due to the inability of the government to access/control them correctly, especially in developing and less developed countries with lower technology.

This is based on your own personal experience. I also enjoy the fun of having a few friends around for gambling, especially when we can easily start having arguments about the opposite team and who has the best player. All those contribute to why physical gambling shops are more fun than online ones. 
 
but for the sake of safety during COVID time, I avoided land-based gambling places because of social distancing, which we can't observe in that place judging how crowded the place I usually make use of is, and some people really don't care about your personal health safety. You might be avoiding body contact with them because they will be pushing themselves further close to you.

Well, obviously, there are gamblers who don't want a physical casino because it's a hassle for them, and others want to gamble even if they're at home, or even if they're there, they can still gamble. Then there are others who appreciate more the one who can touch and see the gambling machine they are playing with.

Now, if you ask me, it's more convenient to gamble online; it avoids accidents, in my opinion; and it can also be seen. Then there is really no hassle.

That's true, but indeed if we think long and look at business where more generations play gambling online it is a sign that physical casinos will be disrupted and it is likely that only a few people will gamble in physical casinos so that business goes in the acceleration of technology, because if only aiming to seek pleasure and get benefits that can certainly be obtained from online gambling which is more flexible, of course these people will really choose online gambling rather than physical gambling, if talking to the orientation of these two factors, because in fact also those who play in physical casinos are mostly young people who have old age today.

Indeed, there are positives and negatives with the development of this increasingly sophisticated era. However, perhaps the negative influence can still be minimized by not being careless in taking an action or deciding on a step forward, if we can decide on a step forward then everything will be fine, because in the beginning they became addicted or experienced other bad things. That's by starting to be curious and becoming an addiction that can't be stopped, and if they don't have the wrong perception, maybe they won't become addicted, just fulfill their curiosity, unfortunately they are swayed and lulled into gambling to the point where they become addicted to gambling. On the positive side, society can do many things practically, and I think those who have good thoughts will take advantage of this development.

Yes, that's true, even without parental guidance, many children are now so good at using gadgets that they can access anything they want, but unfortunately this can get them into trouble because they can access even bad things without their parents' knowledge. Apart from that, education usually also involves gadgets as one of the methods of their learning process. Even though young people are strictly supervised, I think there is still a chance for them to do something negative, so it is difficult to minimize this if it is not done by themselves.

There has been online gambling with significant volume for a long time now, more than two decades, and it has not broken the physical casinos. If anything, it has made them more popular. In general, young people gamble more from their cell phones, but this has increased the gambling user base, and just as they gamble from their cell phones, at some point they go to a land-based casino.


This is for the social aspect. Land-based casinos outperform online casinos in the social experience, no matter how much online chat there is.

Nowadays, operating a land-based casino is not so easy, because not only do they need to set a strategy to get people to come to them, but they also need to deal with government regulations that tighten their operations. It is true that many people still prefer to play offline, perhaps because the vibe is different, but the development of online casinos is quite high and this forces land-based casinos to not only provide gambling services, but also other entertainment venues such as clubs, hotels, etc. , to be able to increase their appeal and accommodate their visitors. And that's why having a land-based casino can take a lot of money to develop and operate it because many people are involved there.

If starting an online casino is expensive, then we cannot imagine how much it would be to start a moderate-sized brick-and-mortar casino.
It is not only the fact one is at the mercy of government and the regulators which will take a slice of one's profit, it is also the fact one's population of customers is limited to the local area. The most populated the zone, the better. However, the cost of square meter in cities is extremely high. Perhaps that is why we see some many small casinos trying to blossom in this ecosystem dominanted by a few giants and reliable online casinos. For the average person, with a moderate budget, it is impossible to even begin to offer those services and perks which are characteristic of brick and mortar casinos and the ones which end up attracting people, getting out their way to gamble on a physical slot machine.

The development of the era is what drives someone to train and learn to increase their broad insight, especially with the very sophisticated and modern digital era today, we often see that young people are better at accessing information on the internet, even they only need to see or search on an application site so that they are very good at playing the gadgets they have.
Yes, it is true that in terms of aspects like this, special attention is needed from parents to always supervise children's activities while playing gadgets, although slowly and firmly this greatly helps the child's growth to be better, namely not using gadgets in terms of negative things.

I also used to think that starting an online casino is expensive, until someone posted here online casino licenses cost and opening expenses. I can imagine how to find this post today, but it cost <$5k to get a license, and $1-3k for company registration. Add to this cost of equipment (server, programs), cost of employee (support) and start signing contracts with providers. I think $15k is a starting budget of an online casino. For the offline casino, that would be the starting cost of a bar only. Imho offline casino can not operate without a bar. And each slot, table cost additional license. Dozens of employees. However, offline casino earn not only from gambling. Like I’ve said, the bar is also a significant part of casinos profit. Not everyone who goes to casino gamble. Some go there to have fun, watch, drink... That is the difference and benefit of land base casino - it is more flexible and offers more.

Young generation now in the right time when the internet develop better than the few years ago. They can use and accessing many information from the internet to gets what they wants. They are very familiar with their gadgets, better than the old generation so they can gets many things from the internet. They can knows something from the internet better than the other people, including about online casino.

But if we talks about the offline casino, they can use internet to develop their business to reach more customer. They can evolve with something new and with the young generation familiar with the internet, that will helps the offline casino becomes one of the reputable casino. The offline casino that change their business to online casino will becomes bigger because they have many customers from other countries and that can impact to their incomes.

The reason on why there's a lot of young people participating on gambling because this platforms became easy to access since they could just browse them on internet fund their account then here you go they can easily gamble on the games they are familiar. But I also don't think there's difference between old generation since if they are adaptive on the changes on technology side especially on new way of betting then for sure they can easily learn that online casino exist and they can immediately gamble at home.


For offline casino they can adapt since this is important for them to increase their profit. But if someone think about the extinction of this offline business then I guess even if there are online casino the offline one will still stay because there are  lots of people would come to those places since there are people still find more thrill to gamble in offline casino also they can build connections which is helpful to them on that place.

If I ever tried to venture in the world of gambling by opening some establishment, I think start by doing what others do here in my country, and open and small franchise of animal roulette. because it is a franchise which is already established within the country and they do it require much initial investment, it could be a straight forward process.
Though, the disadvantage would be the high competition I would have, because many have had the same idea to introduce themselves in the business.
When comes to online gambling, I don't think I would dare to open an online casino with the small budget I could get. I consider myself to be paranoid enough to be afraid of hackers and cyber criminals and end up over spending my bankroll on a strong security system, without having money to justify the enhancing of such systems.  :P

Physical casinos are not going anywhere. Online gambling has been around for decades now and both have been able to co-exist in that time. There might be ebbs and flows when laws are changed, so each category can capitalize on different changes, but generally you could imagine they would be at an equilibrium now. "Land" based casinos can draw in a completely different crowd and can often be a great socializing location for groups of players, who might make that their whole trip or end up in there after a night out. Just look at Las Vegas which always finds room to expand further, is always renovating and building new hotels on the strip and draws in millions of players each year for proof.

Traditional and land based casinos will also look for a way to step up, if they don’t, then time will come when people will stop making use of them, or if people will still be using them, then they won’t have many customers. I notice that some casinos that started as land based casinos alone already have the online version. Maybe they already know that people patronizing them will reduce later in the future, so they already have an alternative. If you want to gamble online, you can visit their website, and if you prefer physical gambling, then it’s fine, you will still be able to gamble.

Yes, the most difficult point of land-based casinos is the diplomatic relationship with the government, governments often have demands and do not encourage this type of business, so in order to be an official casino, the costs given as well as the source of relationships need to be truly broad and guaranteed. In return, once legalized easily, customers will feel more comfortable than small casinos that are not supported by the government but in reality, the digital age is leading to many highlights as well as convenience, the online casino model is gradually gaining more market share, it's also a good competition to perfect the services

What do you mean? isn't it obvious that you can't just put up a land base casinos if the government will not allow it, simply as that. So this is not a challenge face by land base casinos. Here in my country there are big casinos, usually funded by US/Asian casinos so there is no issue with our government what so ever. They even expanded another casino somewhere in the south. Meaning this casinos are making a lot of money and in turn they are giving huge taxes for our government. So it's very legal here, although there are some fly by night gaming and that's where our government are focusing on cracking them down. And this big casinos as well are venturing into online gambling, to compete with so much online operators as well that is allowed by the government.

By concluding your opinion above, it is true that the current young generation has been able to adapt to the development of the era well, namely being good at running the internet well and quickly compared to the generation of last year who still had minimal knowledge in running the internet. And not only that, the current generation can be said to be the millennial generation which can be seen from their very easy way of accessing the internet network even from the guidance of others as you have conveyed, namely the current young generation can already run offline casinos into online casinos which somehow they have managed to do it.

Besides that, young people can see the advertisement about gambling games easily while they browse their social media page such as Facebook, Tiktok, Youtube or others so they will know that they can playing gambling easily. They can funds their account by using their money from their parents without thinks about how if their money is gone because of playing gambling. They will not thinks that earn money is not easy but they just asks that money from their parents.

Those offline casino must adapt the current situation if they still wants to existed and runs their business among the other casino. And if the trend now is becomes online, those offline casino should try to makes their casino becomes online by hiring some employee that expert in their fields. If they can expand their business into online, their business will becomes bigger and they will have a chance to make bigger profit.

Young generation can do fast adaptation with the current situation because they smarter than the previous generation while they have many resources so they can learn while trying to find out more. We don't deny that young generation now becomes more critic with any circumstances around them but some of them are not care with what happens to others around them. But we admit that young generation can have an easy way of accessing the internet better than previous generation. It's why young generation now needs guidance from adult people who familiar with the internet so young generation not use internet for a wrong thing.

I agree with you, Land based Casino would create an online site which there customers can access, I believe I have seen many doing that currently were her customers now have official online sites, while Gamblers can still come gamble physically at the land based own. The truth is, customers would still be patronising them no matter what as well another alternative from them to keep there customers and avert the disadvantages that might come because of the online Casinos. Everyone is different, Gamblers have different taste and would tend to act in opposites.

I agree. There are still those who love going to physical casinos because of the environment and the thrill that it gives which cannot be found in playing online casino games.
That cannot be replaced easily and I think many gamblers still prefer it to gamble that way. It's not just the environment but also the service. At home playing online casino games, there's no one who would serve us food and drinks while it is being given by physical casinos without a problem.

I think what casinos should do is just adapt to the new things that are happening. Many of them have already done it and I think MGM did it already. Perhaps they just want to maximize the profits they can make and they have to follow the trend if they want their business to boom more.

I would not dare to open an online casino either. However, the reason would be different from paranoid - I am afraid that I will run out of money for promotion quicker than I would earn or planned in budget. Online competition is greatly larger. I find it hard to get noticed online. For land base casino it is easier, much easier. Offer free welcome drink, hand some balloons outside and you will get your first 100 customers. Moreover, people might come to my land base casino just to hang out. That would decrease my expenses. But nobody goes online just to watch others gamble.

Its not that online casinos have already everything we want as gamblers. They have their own flaws that until now are still not addressed and given solutions, the reason why some still prefer to gamble on physical casinos and get satisfaction after every betting. Although some are definitely hooked on online casinos, but others  are still left betting in traditional casinos.

However, with the rising competition we have right now between traditional and online casinos, these traditional casinos are still expected to become more innovative and adapt the current demands of gamblers that will make their casinos last longer in the market industry.

Opening an online gambling business has very strong competition, we have to prepare quite a lot of money for other service costs and carrying out promotions is not an easy thing. In fact many people use influencers to promote their sites so that there will be lots of interest if you fail to promote and it is not comparable users who use online casino platforms will be out of business, especially with so many online gambling sites, which makes some people confused about which site they want to use every time they want to gamble, so building an online casino for people who don't have a lot of money is not a good idea.

For me, even though there is a lot of online gambling nowadays, land-based casinos have their own level of comfort, even though they look like old-school gambling in the midst of online gambling, but there are still many people who gamble at land-based casinos because they feel they can have more fun in land-based casinos, so it's okay if want to open a land-based casino business if the state allows it to operate there, besides that there is not as much competition as online gambling by providing attractive promotions then the business can be profitable.

That is not true at all,the land based casinos except Las Vegas and Macau are only followed by old people in age,they have difficulties to adapt to crypto online casinos as some of them are as well playing in Fiat casinos like bet365 and alike.Most people love the commodity of online gambling and they can play anywhere with a mobile device at their disposal,which for me is the biggest advantage that online gambling offers,you can play anywhere,suppose you just saw a sport betting event that you are sure about a bet you want to make,if you have to go to a land based casino time is a very much limiting factor while if you have an account in an online platform you just take out from your pocket your mobile phone,log in to your account and place that bet,this is simply something that land based casinos will never beat no matter what innovation and technology they fit in their place.

By creating an online site for their casino can shows to their existing users that they aware with the newest technologies and they wants to try to expand their business on the internet. That will gives them more chances to wins their users heart so their users will stay on that casino to playing gambling. That's a good strategy for them if they can gives something that differents than the other casino among them so their users will see what their favorite casinos gives to their loyal users.

Having two type of business, offline and online, can gives more chances for the casino to gets more users because when they can used the internet properly, their target users will increase and the casino can grows their business. As long as the casino can manage their services to their users, casino will gets benefits from their users and they will have more opportunity to grow their business in the internet.

Either offline casinos have already done that and opened online segment, or many small casinos are a franchise. Anyway, I believe that offline casinos will never disappear. Even during digital age, even during all that virtual reality options, there offline casinos will always have their specific audience. And imo reason for that is simple, people get bored sitting at home and in gadgets.

It is true that nowadays the young generation is developing very well in terms of insight and knowledge compared to the previous young generation and the young generation today they are not given guidance from their seniors, they try to seek knowledge themselves by learning from internet sites that make it easy for them to learn everything whether it is right or wrong. And of course it is true that with the intelligence of the young generation today there is vulnerability in terms of wrong behavior because they can freely access various kinds of news whether it is bad or not so this must always be supervised by parents to firmly educate their children in carrying out their daily activities.

will brick-and-mortar casinos become a thing of the past the answer would be now because in my opinion both casino has plus and minus Land Based Casinos in the Digital Age would be still exist till ever and both has a different customer

If you look at the offline casino you might notice different things like their slot machine and the card deck etc. The use of machine shuffle or the start to adapting computed-based slot machine and etc. An Offline casino serve different customer and most of them serve wealthy and old people with money and offline casino usually serve people with higher bet and etc.

While online casinos serve to people who don't like to go out and usually have a smaller bet. IMO.

We don't knows about that and not sure how many offline casinos already launch their business in online but that will be interesting if we can knows for sure. I agree that offline casinos will never disappear because people like to playing gambling by offline so they can meet many people who wants to playing gambling on many casinos.

Many people still use offline casinos instead use online casinos because they wants to feels the real experiences playing gambling with other people. They can playing gambling for some time and feels the excitement of gambling with their friends or other people. If offline casinos can expands their business use the internet, their chance to gets more users from many countries will wide openly. But that will needs more funds to starts so they must calculates carefully before they decides.

Young generation can learn fast about something new, especially if they can search for that things on the internet. They can use internet better than their parents so they can search something without takes too long. Related to gambling industry, they may not comes to the offline casino but they will search for online casino to playing gambling because they thinks that will be safe for them to playing gambling secretly.

Maybe they don't know how many offline casinos in their city but they can find the online casino without long. And when the offline casinos can use the internet, young generation can know about that and they will use the search function to finds the online casinos.

Yes and the point is that the current young generation is more creative in terms of finding new things in adjusting developments, the current young generation without guidance and training is very quick to adapt to the development of this digital era because of the high curiosity factor for new things that they think are very interesting to look for and even imitate in everyday life.
Yes, the young generation in the village tends to be better at running offline casinos than online casinos because of the limited minimal access to good and fast internet so it can be said that the young generation in the village is still lagging behind the young generation in the city.

They still have a place in the world, and yes I do agree that it is not as much as it used to be, but they still have a place. Mainly because we are talking about something that is not really that crazy, it is something very important to realize that you are going to do fine and also important to just put up something that will do fine, and that doesn't mean that we are going to be getting more of them, and eventually we may see them less and less of them which would be possible in the future.

But that doesn't mean that we are going to end up with something that would be fine, it has to be something that will take a while for you to handle all of that, we need to sometimes just realize that things aren't going that great with time.

Young generation must adapt the situation and not trying to playing gambling excessively because they are still young with a high curiosity and wants to gets win in gambling. But that will not happens easily because gambling is just for fun and with the high curiosity, young generation can spends too much money because they will feels that they can wins in the next rounds.

If in their location doesn't have a good internet connection, they can go to offline casinos and playing gambling with their friends. But when they are in the place that have a good internet connection, they can playing gambling with easiness and that can attracts them to use more money. If the land based casino creating their business in online, they will gets more customers from many countries and not just for local customers so that can helps them to make more profit.

In this era of the generation that we are facing, more young people or children are more quickly adopting the technology that we have today, even leaving behind the majority of adults. There are only a few that we can say are keeping up with the trend that we have in this field.

That's why, whether we like it or not, we should really know how to keep up with the technologies that really exist in this era, because after all, it's a big thing and a help to us, just like Bitcoin or cryptocurrency, honestly speaking.

I totally agree with you, indeed the current young generation must maintain and learn to adapt well and appropriately, yes, maybe the development of the current digital era also has a good influence in increasing the development of the insight of the next young generation, but on the other hand, if the young generation does it carelessly, then they will not get things that are beneficial and useful but will actually get very bad things that will ruin their lives in the future.

Yes, I agree with this, whether we like it or not, as the young generation today, we must be able to adapt to the development of the very sophisticated digital era like today, namely related to bitcoin and crypto, and as a talented and smart young generation, this should be used as a very good opportunity in a life that will progress.

If casino launch their business in the internet, young generation should not trying to playing gambling by online, especially if they already know what is the risks. They can see what happens to those who playing gambling at a land based casino so when the offline casino expand their business into internet, they don't have to react anything.

It's normal to see the offline business wants to grows their business by creating a website. That will helps them to promote their business wider than before. They can also have more target of the customers because their business will be globally and that can makes them gain more profits. But to have their casino launch  in the internet, the owner must allocates some funds to buy the domain and hosting including promote their sites. It will needs some time to have their customer and reputations among the other casino.

I think that will be the obvious move of a lets say a big traditional casinos from Las Vegas wanted to make their presence felt in the online business. So that first order of business should be a website that will carry their name. So they would have to buy that domain name from someone, or if they have control then they simply would put it up. But that's only the beginning since they should really get some company to handle it and put up security so that they will be no hacking that's going to take place. And then after that have to run some series of test to see how solid is the domain and that there are no loopholes that online criminals can exploit. So it will also take a lot of money from this traditional casinos to go online and mostly the budget could be the same as putting up a land case casinos.

As time goes by, people who have offline casino businesses will learn how to develop their offline casino businesses to be more advanced by switching to opening online casino businesses. Thus, having an online casino business and an offline casino will greatly help them to reap many benefits by seeing the increasingly advanced development of technology which is now certainly utilized well by casino owners by opening online gambling platforms to attract everyone's attention, both the young generation and adults.

If big traditional casinos from Las Vegas expand their business into online, they will see how big the target market in the internet because they can gets more customers from many countries. They should thinks about the brand name that they brought from the traditional into online so their existing members will see that their business now trying to expand to the internet. That will needs time to build the site but they can hire some expert to handle that from scratch and launch in the right time.

They must promote their business to many websites so they can reach many new customers and they can introduce that they have an offline casinos that serves many gamblers who playing gambling on their casino. But they must be wait for a while to see the profits coming to them because many new customers doesn't knows about their offline casinos so they must keeps works hard to promote their online casino.

If they wants to grow their business bigger, they must try to use internet to expand their business. Many offline business move their business into internet while they still have the offline store to served their existing customers. With the helps of internet, they can promotes their business and gets more customers so that means they will gets more profits in the future when their online business becomes bigger.

If they can have two models business, offline and online, they will have a big chance to gain the profits while they can also increased their customer so they can becomes one of the larger casino that have big business. That will needs time to run two models of business but if they can have a solid team that can manage the business, they will see their profit will increase. That will depends on how they can promote their business properly.

I would always prefer a real casino over online ones.
Sure you can never be sure about cheating or whatever but game wise I would feel MUCH safer when I play at a real casino compared to an online one. Too many strange outcomes and videos circulating from online casinos.
Also, when you have cash/chips in hand it is easier to end because you actually have something in your hands. Digital money often slips through much faster because you lose the relation to the actual value I think.

Hopefully Japan will soon allow and build some real casinos, I read about a huge resort to be built and finished around 2029 near Osaka, still years to go though, such a long time.

Being online isn't being advanced but they have to adapt what's with the trend and what's convenient to most of their customers.

By making their own platforms with online access, that's also giving their customers to experience convenience while gambling on their platform.

But the thing for them, this is just the start of them and their customers will also be exposed to see other competitors of theirs by being online.

Of course it is not easy to develop an online casino business or offline casino quickly and progress there will definitely be tough competition there and there are also obstacles regarding licensing to open a casino business that requires a very fantastic budget.
Yes I agree with you, if the casino business is already running, of course the company will seek and strive to establish good cooperation between fellow employees of one company, namely creating a good vision and mission in developing the casino business.

For people who frequent visiting physical casinos it is very difficult to change their habits to gamble from offline casinos to online casinos this because they feel gamble using physical casinos makes them will have it's own satisfaction for them so that's why i believe land based casino will never dissapear because they have their own fans although the development of online casino is very rapid but some people are more prefer to gamble by visiting casinos directly
But i think some of Physical casinos owners has been realized that and in the rapid growth of the digital era then they have to adapt to the current situation and probably later some of physical casinos will thinking the innovations by creating an online casinos using their own brand because they know the future of online casinos will be very bright besides that by created online casinos using their own brand then they have a potention to gets new players world wide which is this is good for long term bussiness

I do agree with you some people would eventually prefer an offline casino because its long history and etc. and yes some people like meet with a real person and fair game obviously, the other benefit some offline casino offer you free snack and sometimes free wine haha.

Japan will build casino just hear the news from you but some countries start to accepting gambling as a legal business since the tax from it would be big and can help the country grow

If the casino owner can uses the time to manage his online casino like he manage his offline casino, he will see the differences between his two business. He must use different strategy to develop his online casino and grow to be bigger like his offline casino. That will not be a problem if he succeeded managed his offline casino because he will find a way how to increase his online casino growth.

Allocating some budget to his online casino is a must because that will be used to promote his online casino and attract many gamblers that will visits his online casino. That's why he must have a solid teams that can helps him to manage his online casino and grow it to becomes one of popular casino among the other online casinos. But he must be patience to works for his online casino because having one business needs time to achieve his goals.

It is a fact, the new generations trust much more in digital than in physical casinos, in fact the only way to get their pleasure is for one to go with them and have a good time having fun in a physical casino, in general today's generations are very focused on Speed, little fun and good and quick results, I don't know if their mental chip is for that now, but they are born with more and more brain capacity and smarter, but at the same time weaker, they are greatly Affected by digital things, so I think a scale Should be made to balance all those things, those of us who have children Should teach them the benefits of  Tangible things, that not only Digital is correct and ideal.

Yes, the point is if you want to open an online casino business or offline casino, the businessman must be ready and brave for the risks that will occur in developing his business, whether loss or profit, that is the result that will be obtained by a businessman.
It is true, something that will be started and wants to progress and develop must have full patience and high hard work because it is not easy for online casino businessmen to progress quickly, patience, hard work and good cooperation are needed between those in one company where solid cooperation will bring prosperity to a company.

It all depends on what they see when they are growing up. Children tend to do what their elders do and they grow up with habits of what they do when they are young. So if in a household, all the adults are always using mobile phones, and laptops, watching TV, never going out or playing any sports, or doing any extra activities, children growing up in such an environment will surely not be into tangible things or be interested in anything other than technology.

So, the trust or whatever the new generation has in technology is because they see us having the same trust, and in reality, we are the ones who are making them interested in these things. A child is given a smartphone as soon as they start walking, they start getting involved in such a small age, so they aren't to be blamed for this, we are.

A businessman must be ready with all things that can happens while he runs his business. That's why he must have a clear plan that will helps him to works as his plan and not have any trouble. Developing his business needs a serious, especially if he wants to launch his business in the online because his competitor in the internet will be wide. He can meets other competitor from other country or competitor that have much experienced in the online business.

He must use different strategy from his offline business because that can not be used directly to his business on the internet. He must use different promotion to introduce his online business to his customer and that will not easy as his competitor will used different promotion. He must be patience and works hard and smart to runs his online business because every business needs time to see the results.

Both will still exist and run simultaneously, because there will always be gamblers who like online casinos but also those who like land-based casinos because there they can interact with other gamblers. For land-based casinos there are those that offer luxury like if you go to Las Vegas, Macau or also several places that are famous for many casinos, and that luxury is not available to gamblers who gamble online, so when they go to Macau or Las Vegas is like a holiday, and cannot be replaced by just gambling online.

So when something new appears it will complement what already exists, so that gamblers will have more choices, they can choose to gamble at land-based casinos or when they don't have free time to go out they can still channel their gambling desires by playing at online casinos.

I like visit land based casinos with my four best  friends particularly because we are always easy with each other and commonly have a deal  that the winner ( at the end of gaming) pay the drinks for all of us. And I think I'm not alone with such habit thus the land based casinos  are by any standard of human behavior compliant with the digital age.

Of course, everyone who is going to open their new business first thinks about a mature plan or strategy so that later the business has been opened and running will grow and progress even more.
If it is related to opening a gambling business, both offline and online, the same businessman must consider carefully and develop a good strategy so that his casino business is widely glanced at by gamblers so that they are interested in entering his casino company.
Yes, one of them is to issue a very profitable promotion then gamblers will be interested in entering there and the most important thing is to maintain a commitment in the company between the boss and his subordinates.

Well what you say you are completely right, I think that those to blame for these things are ourselves, since the easiest way to Keep the Child from Bothering them is that, so without wanting to sometimes we are doing many things that instead of improving, they make Parenting worse, and the part of a happy childhood is changing a lot, also with all the freedoms that there are in the media, I think that Children by themselves help themselves to Know things that are not appropriate for their age,  where to be honest the fact that they know about casinos is one of the things that are Dangerous , but not as much as the Things that are being implemented in the World without any kind of modesty.

When running up a business then as an owner then you should really be that open minded when it comes to changes on which we know that there's really something new that would really be available and for your business not to get left behind then of course you would really be trying out to apply those new things or would really be integrating into your business just to cope up or trying to level up into the competition specially that there would really be a huge competition when it comes to gambling industry. Land based casinos could really be possibly be making their own online
casinos as well but there are still those land based ones would really be that trying out to stick into their business on offline because why would create one
if they are really that profitable and running well?

Very good input my friend, yes as a casino business owner developing his business must require optimal steps as you have said above, these are some steps that must be learned and developed by casino owners so that their casino business can grow rapidly and advance.
It is indeed not easy to immediately run smoothly and successfully because there are so many new casino platforms that have emerged in cyberspace or in real life, and as a casino owner you must be able to choose and sort out how to keep your business running smoothly, that's the key.

I do think that physical casinos are going to survive and will be around in the future, even though online gambling is taking over more and more market share of the industry. Offering great deals and being easily accessible from home is what makes online casinos so attractive. Creating a new gambling account online always offers some promotions like a 200-300% deposit bonus or a good rake back scheme, whereas a physical casino doesn't offer such promotions. When visiting a physical it's not only about gambling, usually it involves having a nice dinner and some drinks, or even a full vacation in an awesome hotel. As long as there is no virtual reality casinos that can offer the same type of amenities as a physical casino I don't think they are going to disappear. People are looking for different type of entertainment, someone who is only interested in gambling itself and wants the biggest variety of games is going to prefer online casinos. And someone who also wants to enjoy a big pool, a gym, good food and some shows with drinks around the gambling will keep visiting physical casinos.

Over the time, people have learnt about the benefits of online casinos over the offline ones. Not only it save cost of operating and running an online casino, but also it attracts people from all over the world. While in the physical casino, only players residing in that area or in that city may visit that casino, but people from all around the world visit the online casino.
This is why online casinos are more popular and at the same time, they generate more revenue.

Business owner will makes his plan and strategy that will be used to develop his business. He will not underestimate his competitor in the internet because he knows that internet market is wider than the offline market so he must us different strategy. He must research deeply before decides to launch his offline business into online business.

If he already launched his business to the internet, he will see that he must have a promotion that will helps him to grow his business. With research that he did before, he will knows what he needs to do to develop his online business and he can works with the teams that he build before. Maybe he and his teams must adapt with the current situation so they can use one or more promotion to start to gets their visitors.

2020 also made many business casino owners to realize the benefits of having an online casinos instead of land based casino because the pandemic made many gamblers to turn to online gambling and abandon land based casino. If you did not have an online casino, you would had missed out of customers because movements were restricted and people could not leave their home therefore they started gambling more online. Online casinos will always have and advantage over land based casinos because of the things you said and it is cost effective. You can upgrade an online casino quicker than you will upgrade a land based casino. At times you do not have to shutdown your casino for a maintenance but you must do that for a land based casino As the casino owner you also get more revenue because people will spend more hours gambling online than they would had if they were in a physical casino.

They've seen the effectiveness during that pandemic and that's why many of them should also have their online presence.

Many of the laid off employees have found their times to be with online casinos. It's funny to think that many of them thought of it as a part time job.

That's the real deal on that moment but then, after the lockdowns have been lifted up, they're able to change that mindset and went back to their prior jobs.

But many of them lost a lot of funds during the pandemic as they had no idea about online gambling though they tried to start gambling for fun or for a part-time job. During the Pendamic maximum number of people joined online gambling and from that time it was non-stopable and the income/profit of online casinos increased.

The complexity of the interface and the process of switching up to be a nerd, coupled with the time factor and the excitement or say - ecstacy that's derived by the untimely arguments and boastfulness - which to some extent could be one of the reasons why a local man picked an interest in gambling - will not be part of the deal anymore and you feel he ain't quitting anytime soon? That ofcourse is not true.

Why do you think we still have coupon games till this day?land-based casinos wouldn't lose it's aura for anything new. Whatever happens, everyone has a choice!
Without a doubt, Yes!

The significant increase of their profit is an outstanding success when in comes to Digital gaming using online platform. Pandemic is the gateway of gamblers to earn potential winnings despite the fact of having fun even though experiencing losses. I also laid off from job during pandemic, participated gambling online but I haven't got good results when using hard earned money just to expect quick gains from gambling.
I still prefer quitting my habits before everything is too late.

there is no doubt that discussing the benefits of digital games that use online platforms. many people today are reluctant to travel so games that can be accessed online are the best choice, not just games, there are also many other things that can be done without having to go anywhere. with online gambling of course this provides convenience for those who do like to gamble because they can do it anywhere and anytime. but what is clear is that the advantages and disadvantages are the same, there is no difference. players only have a small chance of winning and a big chance of losing.

honestly when before the pandemic I didn't work, but I only knew gambling a few years ago. when the pandemic happened I didn't know gambling, whether it was online or offline gambling. but when I got to know gambling, in this case there would be no stable income that could be obtained because this is a business so it is impossible for players to get a stable income.

The fact is that younger generations are accustomed to digitalization in all aspects of life and online casinos are a more familiar place for them than for older players. Moreover, young players prefer a laptop and sitting at home instead of everything else, although the world offers them many more opportunities than those who played 20-30 years ago.

It turns out that every year there will be fewer and fewer players in land-based casinos until the profitability of the establishment falls so much that there is no point in maintaining it and eventually it will be closed. So in my opinion, they are doomed to close, but not all completely, and only those that are the most powerful and rich, as well as world-famous, will remain, to which some players from all over the world will go. These Land Based Casinoswill last for quite a long time.

Many people initially think they can earn income from their gambling activities, but that is wrong. I understand that maybe they initially did not know anything about gambling, so they thought like that. and it is also sharpened by the many gambling advertisements that only show when someone wins a large amount, so that is what ultimately gives rise to that wrong thinking.
During the pandemic, people don't know what they are going to do, they just stay at home and start looking at gambling which they eventually try with the aim of entertainment. There are also those who are trapped in a circle of addiction that cannot easily get out of the trap.
You are very lucky because you can realize that quickly, so you can stop everything before it's too late. Because there are many out there who can't just stop even though they realize what they are doing is wrong.

If people prefer gambling online, then why Las Vegas and other offline casinos still exist? Imo offline casinos will be closed not because younger generation prefer online gambling, but because those who visited offline casinos runs out of money. For example look how people do shopping. When it is possible to order food online, people still go to shops and leave it will full carts. Making order online seems more easy. You dont have to walk, carry heavy bags home and etc. Just do some clicks and that is it. Yet people still go to shops. I will call it a habit. And due to same habit, people will still go to offline casinos.

One experience that the land based casino do offer that is yet to be beaten by the online casinos is socialization, people find it much easier and better socializing in land based casinos than they do when it concerns the online casinos where a good number of them maintain anonymity. In land based casinos people gets to meet people and socialize but with online it's mostly about solo gambling but then online has got more traffic which is to the advantage of the casinos owners and of a slight disadvantage to the gamblers. Online casinos has got the flexibility leverage which benefits bothe the gambler and the owner of the casinos but for the owner of the casino to still maintain their customers even at distance, they will need more land based presence which will be cost effective but with online casinos they have got a really wide reach.

If people are used to doing something, it does not mean that they will do it forever, the old and unable to learn may continue to do it, and the young and those who are always ready to develop will discover new things for themselves. There is another reason why I am used to going to the store, it is that I want to take a break from the digital world and enjoy a walk down the street in good weather.

I also think that the return on investment (RTP) percentage of offline casinos is lower, because they need to pay for rent, staff, utilities, and online casinos do not need it, so their RTP can reach 99%. I would still prefer to play with a high RTP. But this does not mean that I would not go to Las Vegas for rest and travel, and would play for fun, but only 1-2 times and no more. On a regular basis, I would only play in online casinos.

Absolutely, despite of many failures that these people were all experiencing their mindset remains unchanged and resulted to negative outcomes. They thought it might provide them stable income but in reality losses was increasing badly. My friend at work became a slave of online game and habitual gaming made him so drowned with financial struggles. Pandemic days certainly became a phenomenal activities that's really unstoppable to control particular with jobless and poor asian countries who's unfortunately engaging this kind of gambling ideas.

in the modern era of internet technology now makes everything easy. This web casino world business is extraordinary or other businesses. the development of the casino world in my country to thousands of websites all have their own customers because most of them like to compete in hockey. with ease we must also be able to control and cannot blame because the modern era is now easy

No doubt the digital and modern era make life easy for the human but same time it brings a lot of challenges too. For example, if we only talk about gambling that evolved from physical casino to the online casino, the biggest challenge is to secure the payments so on one would hack the payments. Next challenge is for the players that they have to chosse the good casino among lot of scammy ones whom are made only to gain money from people.

Scams weren't so easy in the physical casino era because at that time, if a casino scam, the gamblers can take action against them because their presence was known to everyone. No one knows who and from where these online casinos operate. Still with all these things, the age of online gambling is much more better with more facilities  :)

Perhaps that is why there is still an important percentage of people who continues to gamble in brick and mortar casinos, in spite of all the ease we can get to gamble in digital or cryptocurrency casinos. Those who still do it may think there is a higher chance for them ending up being victims of a scam, since they cannot actually see the casino staff in front of them while wagering, having a face, a voice and a presence as a casino operator could make the difference with those gamblers who are more paranoid on the fairness of the games and the random number generator which rules over the results and the outcome.

Those who have a basic knowledge on how random number generation works and understand the verification process won't have much of a problem in signing up to crypto casinos.

the challenge of risk is not far from the online or land world, such as fraudulent gambling sites, this must also be understood because there are many gambling sites that seek their own profit, many people still do not understand. and about security, there are many ways, although not 100%, at least they have security. what must be watched out for when the facilities are easy but have a bad impact, we must stay away from this

Digital gaming is a general term which also includes P2E games but speaking of this, a lot of people have also earned a nice income from them during the pandemic era. It was Axie Infinity is the ones who is famous in P2E among all back then. They can also be less riskier or there is no risk at all from them since you can just apply as a scholar and play in behalf of someone else for free, while we know that online casinos always needs a capital for one to get started and make something decent but a lot of people can't play it during the pandemic time as many of them got laid-off from their jobs and they have no source of income to support this hobby at the moment. Now that the pandemic is over, it's also a perfect time to quit our not-so-good habits as it might only affect our performances in school, work, etc...

That's true. The social life. When you are a player of online gambling, there's no such thing as a social life, you play alone when it's casino and slot games and there's no one to talk to unlike how it goes with physical casinos where even strangers will suddenly be your friend especially if you are playing the same game like poker, blackjack, roulette, and others where many players are circling around to place their bets.

But I think when it comes to RTP, that's where online casinos have the upper hand. They are giving back even when we lost 20 rounds of bets and then sometimes they give more which cannot be seen in physical gambling.

Brick-and-mortar casinos will surely continue to hold their grounds as long as human continue to exist on this planet earth, and it's due to a very simple reason, and that is socialization.

As accessible and convenient as online casinos are, the lack of ability to physically socialize with other players/gamblers is still con and a problem that has no solution, only land based casinos can offer such feature like we have seen over time.
And as long as humans continue to exist, there will alway be people who love socializing with other people, gamblers aside just locking themselves inside a room and gambling their life span away.

So, for me, I think Land based casinos surely will evolve, and no matter how popular online casinos get, land based casinos will keep existing and will continue to have some market share of the gambling industry's revenue because physical socialization is an valuable advantage they have over their online counterpart.

Many of the traditional gambling platforms are now turning to  get their customers online which is what we are seeing these days. I have seen making local gambling platforms that now have their website when people can gamble online so their customers can have the opportunity to gamble at their own comfort. The era of traditional gambling casinos is fading out and I know that many cities in the world that is know for gambling activities would soon be dry with limited gamblers going there to place bets because they can noe play their favorite games at their own convenience without stepping out of their comfort zone.

Yeah, because this traditional brick and mortar casinos will have to adjust with the current times. So they should also have somewhat of a online version of their casinos and I have seen 3 or our big casinos here having a online game already.

However, for gamblers that have been playing for so long with land base casinos, not sure if they can appreciate online as they love to talk to fellow gamblers in a table. But at least they have online presence already because traditional casino knows that this is a billion dollar business and so they have to broaden their horizons.

You are absolutely right and I completely agree with you, the idea of land based casinos working hard to establish an online versions of their casino is one that I actually thought of at the time I was making my first comment on this thread, but I don't know how it skipped my mind and I forgot to later include it.

The idea of land based casinos establishing their own online version of their casino is a very valid point and idea, take for example, 1xbet, bet9ja and several other popular casinos here in my country all have online versions of their casinos, but still, they also have land based gambling shops scattered in every state all over the country.

This is to tell us all that land based casinos don't have to get confined to just remaining and operating as a land based casino, they too can get up and set up their online version, this helps them to stay up to date with the latest technologies in the industry, and also play their part in making gambling accessible to all, and in return, be part of the casinos enjoying the reward.

So far offline casinos and online casinos were almost two different industries with no overlap, however I think this will change on the years to come, and this is because during the pandemic offline casinos suffered as they could not keep their doors open.

But online casinos not only did not suffered this setback, but they even thrived under those conditions, so offline casinos cannot really afford to ignore the potential customers they may get if they released and online version of their casino, and I think it is likely that powerful online casinos may come to the same conclusion, and we will begin to see some of the casinos being advertised on this forum opening offline casinos too.

That would be nice! However, yeah, online versions of the offline casinos could bring much potential to the table, that would be interesting to see as well, how the situation will go.

In the pandemic, onilne casino grows fast than we never imagine before because people moves their habit from playing gambling in the offline casino into online casino. But after pandemic leaves, offline casino trying to wake up and grow their business although they are not yet getting their best time like before. But slowly, if they promote their casino like before, the offline casino can achieve their goal and also grow their business.

But online casino can grows faster in the future because new technology will develop and launch among us so that can helps us to reach online casino easier. But however, offline casino can still trying to maintain their business and reach their old members while they are trying to get new members. That will helps offline casino grow bigger and together, offline and online casino will have their members.

Everyone has their preference there people that prefer land based casinos over online casinos it's the same way people prefer to go to a bet shop to play their soccer bets rather than playing online,  not because they don't have access to play online but they don't want to..most people have a sense of control over their impulses when they bet in land based casinos but whenever they bet online they. Totally go out of control, this isn't the case with everybody though.. bottom line no matter how much people gamble online the relevance of land based casinos cannot be erased

Those gambling sites which is land-based and turn online can be sustainable and would be able to earn a lot of money as they can attract the attention of their customer/audience.  But those who are not turned into online gambling sites they can't sustain for the long run and they must have to lose their audience/customer.

Adaption to the situation is what they're going to do. They're not going to be out of business as long as they have a share to the market of gamblers and I still see a lot of land based casinos because a lot of gamblers prefer still to be on that establishment. There's the a huge difference why they're liking that or many of them still don't prefer to gamble online because they might get caught by their children or spouses. That's why they'll just continue the operations and there are big gamblers still that are going on and off to these establishments but we don't know if these gamblers are also gambling online. There's just so much money in the gambling industry and that's why it seems to be hard to get out of business if the casino is famous whether online or land based.

In my opinion overall, now the majority of gamblers prefer to get involved or switch to the type of online casino where we cannot close our eyes to the fact that online casinos are much easier to access and this is in accordance with the needs of most people, they can gamble whenever and wherever they want with their smartphone or PC that is connected to the internet network, meaning that online-based casinos are much more in demand by many people, but that does not mean that physical casinos will not be able to survive, each casino has its own advantages, everyone has different desires and needs.

Physical casinos provide a direct and real gambling experience and excitement, because you will meet many people directly where this situation can give you the opportunity to make new friends that you will not get at online casinos, meaning if a gambler prefers a direct gambling experience and likes a crowded situation to enliven his gambling activities, then of course a physical casino will be the choice, so no matter when physical casinos will always be there, but maybe not as busy as before, before online casinos came and were as popular as they are now.

It is a fact, I can not say anything less than what you say, because it is like that, in fact if we start to see, we grab a group of young people from 18 to 20 years old and we show them the benefits of casinos, many or the vast majority will choose digital casinos, it is because of their way of seeing life, but I consider that I have both, from the old school, which is when we look for physical casinos and digital casinos, what changes are the experiences, in a physical casino you clear your mind because you see people, you see emotions, you see sadness, you can talk, exchange more practical ideas, in the digital casino too, but it is good that those who only play in digital casinos also try physical casinos.

Land based casinos can either succeed or fail even in this digital age, it generally depends on the location where the land based casino is sitted. In some areas, so many people will prefer to visit a land based casino to do or carry out their gambling activities, and this is because they enjoy the socialization that land based casinos offer, this is the ability to meet with and interact with different people from different walks of life, both old and new people.

Some gambler will prefer to gamble on the same table with his or her friends, than locking themselve inside their room and playing online, which you will agree with me that sometimes, one can easily get bored of playing alone.

Hmmm, that's a good reason.
Keeping it all a secret. Truly, there are spouses who are spying on their partner's phones and they will probably get caught if they just forget to log out or clear their history and cache. But, when a gambler goes to a casino they can also be questioned by their partner on where they go and sooner or later they will get caught too.
I do like the idea though, maybe there are gamblers who are possibly doing this to hide their bad habit. I played in a casino before and I can say it has a different environment compared to online casinos which makes you feel more alone. But when one has a family, it can also be the fastest way to ease the stress after a long week of work. So, I will still pick the online casino.

Asking about land-based casinos and digital online casinos, you forget about another type of casino - water casinos (on cruise ships). This method is used in some countries where land-based casinos are prohibited and the liner sails to neutral waters, where they arrange casinos. And also, on liners going on a long cruise. I assume that this type of casino will exist for a long time, because I think that casinos on liners are a kind of invariable attribute of water tourism, adding an element of adventurous adventure to tourists. People will not give up cruises, which means that the interest in participating in the casino will remain.

Regarding land-based casinos, I think that they will not move completely to the online format soon, because offline casinos give completely different sensations and emotional experience than online. The excitement that arises in online casinos is incomparable with offline, and also, the atmosphere created by offline casinos (remember Las Vegas) will attract gamblers as some kind of performance or holiday. I believe that offline casinos will exist for a long time, because it is not just gambling, but a gambling holiday (various shows and performances).

When it comes to the issue of being caught gambling, I would say that no where is safe, and it doesn't matter if and whether one is gambling online and or offline(land based casino).
First of all, there are different factors to this, but before mentioning any, I would like us to understand that as a married man or woman who is a serious gambler, I see to reason to keep your gambling habit a secret to your spouse, but then on the other hand, I understand that some spouces can be tough and find it hard to see reasons with their gambling spouse, for such, it's understandable the reason for the gambling spouse to keep his or her gambling activity a secret.

But also important to understand that to be successful in this secrecy keeping, totally depends on the type of spouse or children one has, you the man or woman has children or a spouse that really cares and wants to know your every move, where you go and what you do, then gambling on land based casinos and keeping it a secret will be a very difficult task, better to stick to gambling online and always making sure to delete histories and caches.

There are still ongoing constructions of hotels and casinos in our country. I don't think those conglomerates will just throw billions if they think it's a dying business or might fall down soon. I think that ever since, those who go to these places are from the upper and middle class of society. For some, it's a habit; for others, it's where they socialize. People from these class love to socialize. So, land base casinos will always be there.

There would be pros and cons to them, that's true. Some people are just used to this type of place, it's a different experience to enjoy for sure. Don't forget about the risks involved (some angry people here and there, regulatory risks, etc.). Everybody chooses what they like more, and that's okay.

I think land based casinos are doing great. For sure their growth has maybe not kept up with the lace it had on the 80s but really it's an industry that is still taking in millions every day in profits so I think the land based casinos will keep doing fine. A land based casinos offers an experience while an online casino is a past time. There are many advantages that land based casinos have managed to keep and I think they will continue to keep them as it's hard to translate most aspects of physical gambling online.

Obviously, land base casinos are making money, and now that the pandemic is over, they could have been seeing some profits already and who knows, they might be in the break even numbers or could have recovered from what they've lost during the lockdown. And as you have said, people still prefer to play in traditional casinos as atmosphere is very different and it offers a different kind of experience to gamblers.

Although they will really need to have more gimmicks to attract gamblers as offline is slowly eating up their way to the top of gambling. And so with that, the competition between the two is going to be very cutt-throat. Nevertheless, if they are making millions every day, so I guess the business is still going to be very good in the long run.

Offline casinos will have to adjust their business model if they want to remain competitive, after all online casinos are cheaper, available all the time, more convenient and offer a better experience, while at the same time the trend is for more services to move online as the tastes of the new generations are changing.

Meaning that if offline casinos do not offer a better experience or they do not move online, soon enough they may not have enough clients to remain in business, as their current customers do not get replaced by new ones.

If the land based casino do not offer the online version of thier casino, they will soon find thier business lacking gamblers because everyone wants to gamble online while being comfortable at home. Those casino who will not have online web based versions will surely die sooner or later.

However this doesn't mean that they completely end the physical setups, it will be better if they run both online and physical casino side by side. Yes, there will be some initial setup cost but this will soon be recovered as casino start to gain online traffic.

I do agree! Mixing the old and new world together seems like a compromise of sorts between the two. And, yeah, everybody wants to be cozy while doing their hobbies ;D

I disagree that offline casino without online part is doomed to fail. I have googled Las Vegas popular casino Bellagio and they dont have an option to gamble online. However they are still in the business. That is because offline casino is not only about games, it is about hotel, entertainment, shows and etc. Online gambling is only gambling oriented business, offline gambling offers much more.

it is true, besides if the physical casino does not have an online casino version I think their profits will not be much because with the existence of an online casino version of course this can make more people gamble and if their reputation is good it will certainly spread by word of mouth about their good and comfortable casino. the existence of this online casino version brings more benefits, because currently the majority of people do their activities online, whether it's work or looking for entertainment.

if they run a physical and online casino at the same time I think the profits they get will be greater because there are two sources of income that can be obtained. although they initially have to spend some money to open an online casino version, I think in the short term it can recover again and they will get benefits forever. it should be noted that currently everyone tends to do everything online including gambling, so if they don't have an online casino version they might not be able to take advantage of current technological developments.

That's true because there is no way offline casino will be dependent to online casino, as the matter of fact offline casino will never cease to exist because it works for a serious great purpose for most companies especially for entertainment and is mostly comom in hotel and some shopping centres and people loves playing them because is a kind of keeping themselves well entertained, which is why removing offline casino will never be possible because as new hotel are being constructed that's how they would always consider adding casino in other to serve there customers more better, though online is more better because at your comfort zone you can do it without having to go anywhere plus there numerous betting options.

That's right.
It's a place for leisure and not just about gambling and I think many rich people or average ones are still going there to be entertained and to see how cool the place is.
It's not like these businesses are going out of business just because online gambling has been an exploding industry in this era. There are still people who like the traditional way of gambling while they are also enjoying the environment and I think if I were near that place I would also do the same.
Las Vegas will be known for that and people will still keep on coming even if online gambling offers better RTP and other bonuses.

You could be right as it is a complete entertainment with hotels, and the the other perks. But as far as I know, even big casinos will have to go online as some point, at least from the casino that has been put up here, in the pandemic, they established somewhat a online presence, but not sure if their online version is still up and running as we all know that we are back to normal again.

But at the end of the day, there could be gamblers who really go to play and not be entertained and stay in such hotels because obviously, it's going to be expensive and we small gamblers play to win money and not to spend it to stay in the hotels.

We cannot compare the two because online gambling and land-based gambling both have their own advantages, and in my opinion it all comes back to our perspective, online gambling does have advantages in terms of access, gambling can be done anywhere and anytime according to what we determine, but behind all that land-based casinos offer different gambling, where gamblers can immediately feel the excitement and real experience in gambling, and a more significant advantage is that we can get to know each other and expand our network of friends, that's what's important

Well as I said, every individual has a different perspective, you will choose which one depends on your taste, however online and land-based gambling will still exist.

You are absolutely right, land based casinos to me are more secure, even if you worry about online casinos folding up that's not the case for land based casinos...some online casinos frustrate people with kyc verifications and all of that in some cases some they freeze some customers account, If I were a casino gambler I would prefer to gamble in a land based casino because I feel it's safer and been paid in cash is far better

Expanding the network of friends and also business, that is the most important reason why land-based casinos are in great demand.
There are more and more wealthy people who come to land-based casinos not just to play, but while looking for and meeting their co-workers to discuss larger businesses.

And now online casinos are also very popular and this is an alternative option when there are no land-based casinos operating or when someone just wants to sit back and not leave their room but still wants to play and bet on gambling.

Online transition for casinos? Baby, this is the digital gold rush. More eyes, more bets, more money. Simple math. Not to fool ourselves, though, this isn't simple plug-and-play. You really need IT, security, everything else. And that costs. Sure, the potential is really great. But that's a gamble. Can you maintain? Can you guard your players?

And there is gambling addiction. Online access facilitates falling down the rabbit hole. Thus, indeed, make your money. But approach it intelligently. Casinos moving online should be more than just profit machines; they could be forces for good. One cannot avoid it. But their handling of it is important. That will help to define their legacy. Will they be remembered as responsible stewards of a strong sector or greedy predators?

So true and that's the reason why the industry is thriving and there are more market capitalization for this as being estimated. Those that can't go to the land based casinos can easily go to the online casinos that they prefer and it's also easier today because of crypto.
We have to appreciate the early adopters of Bitcoin which are the casinos that have believed on it and until now, they're still operating and running their businesses through it.

I have seen rich people doing their transactions inside the casinos, maybe they feel safe specially if they are going to buy expensive Rolex watch. And most likely if this buyers prefer the casinos, for sure they have at least at one point in time have been playing their and they feel comfortable meeting clients and co-workers and would be buyers.


It's just the proliferation of online casinos that might bother governments though. Just imagine if half of the population are gambling online, it might have a bad effect on the country itself. And probably this is the main reason, why some countries are making it hard for online casinos to thrive.

online casino games can be said to be just a game of pressing and waiting for a miracle to happen, but it's not just about that, but there are many things to consider such as self-control, good thinking, and others. when someone gambles online without paying attention to anything else in the sense of only thinking about winning, usually it will only make them addicted because the desire to win that they must get drives them to continue gambling, the final result of which cannot be predicted accurately.

I agree with that, it is true that we can make money this way, but there must be intelligence in this matter. know that winning in gambling is not easy to get, so don't keep forcing yourself to pursue an uncertain victory, when we have lost the bet that was made, then stopping and leaving is the best choice and coming back another time when luck might be on your side by giving victory without having to spend a lot of money like forcing yourself to keep betting.

Online casino gets their members because many people now familiarize how to use internet properly. That makes online casino promotes their business in many websites. If land based casinos can see this as a new opportunity to expand their business in internet, they will benefit from current situation. Their business can reach more people from many countries and that means, that land based casinos can make more profit from their business.

But with many things happen in the internet, that will not easy to compete with previous company that already launched their business. A new competitor needs to prove to their members that they can be reliable business and can also gives satisfaction to them. If land based casinos can expand using internet and gets their previous members, the casino will have a chance to becomes bigger because they can gets more members that will playing gambling at that casino.

The unknown that the player is immersed in attracts him, especially the fact that many lose, and specifically for him the result is not yet known, but it can be a win. This is what drives crazy many players who are ready to place a bet in order to continue moving into the unknown. I think that in land-based casinos all the conditions have been created so that you do not leave it, but continue to press the button. If you still have to get distracted by something in the casino, then, for example, at home or from your smartphone, you can quickly do some things and continue playing again, this can last forever until the full deposit is lost. Although in this regard, land-based casinos are not much different, because many players do not follow money management at all.

Yeah, they can get more gamblers attentions if they can manage to deal with both sides, either land or internet if they can cater both sides then it will be favorable, there's always a way if they choose to cater not just the land base business but also to offer online system that can cater gamblers who choose to play using their devices.

Not easy but doable, just need to integrates their land based servers to a online servers which can link the two system to work for the business.

Related to the context you explain about disrupting the government, it may also depend on how much tax the online casino gives to the government.
It will always be safe if the tax given is large enough and will cover all the disturbances.

But the problem is how online casinos can obey the rules and now there are also more and more illegal online casinos that do not have a license and do not pay taxes, that will be the problem.
Some countries that prohibit gambling are related to the risks posed and are contrary to the majority religious method in each country.

---

It's like a double advantage that is obtained, land-based and online casinos both have a lot of customers But of course there will be fees to pay for both and some regulations that must be followed.

All they have to do is to market their casinos. They're all doing that because they know that the market is expanding and more gamblers are coming in online.
They don't want to deal with the hassle and tiring day of going to the casino just to have the same results. At least with playing online, they can easily find their comfort at their house and relax while sipping their favorite drinks.

When they decide to expand their business to the internet, they will prepare everything so that they can handle everything from their business. Maybe they will build or create new team to handle their business in the internet so they can still focus with both type of business, offline and online. That will gives more profit for the casino if they can running their two type of business so they will grow their business without any problem.

Yes, that will not be easy but with integrity and work smart, they will achieve their goals although that still needs time to see the result. They will do many things to make sure that their business will work as they want so that they will get more members and can satisfy their members with their services.

They will increase their members if they can build an online casino but they must be ready to handle their business and grow it as they want. The casino owner will collaborate with all of his team and will do many things to run both business type. The casino owner will calculate the fees and other expenses for both business so he will prepare some capital to cover the fees and gives the best services to their members. The casino owner know that if their casino can gives satisfaction to their members, that will makes their members stay for a long time and keep playing gambling and that means the casino will gets their profit. If land based casino can thinks far about the growth of the technology, they will prepare for that and will trying to expands their business to have more profit.

They will market their casino after they set it up everything and it is ready to compete with the other casinos. Before they promotes their casino, they will check everything and make sure that their casino can running well and ready to launch. They know that satisfaction from their members is the most important from their business so that will makes them prepare with right and seriously with their work. The casino owner know that competition in the online will be difficult especially if they can not prepare their casino properly. That is why they will make sure that their new type of business can runs without any problem. They even will invite some gamblers to test their site before they launch it to public because they don't want to have a problem with their site. With inviting some people to test their site will gives a chance to know which part is works as well and which is not work so they can fix that before their casino launch to public.

Competing with online casinos is not easy and of course even though they have marketed their casinos very well and made very significant developments, it is not certain that they can surpass the superiority of online casinos in gaining interest from gamblers.
In reality, now various land-based casinos have developed by displaying more games that are really upgraded to be more modern or making all game machines more sophisticated but that can't beat online casinos.
Only thing that can be done is to maintain their loyal customers, I sure every land-based casino has loyal customers and they have to do business by prioritizing the comfort and satisfaction of their customers to survive.
If really want to get long-term business, still have to follow developments by starting to divert land-based casinos by building online casinos, but they have to start from scratch first to build it.
Now there are many conveniences from online casinos and if business people don't keep up with the times, they will definitely be left behind.

The boons that the online variant brings are too much to ignore, in my opinion, too. Your thoughts are well organized.

With what I see with the new casinos, they're wrong with how they do it. They think that as long as they have established the website, the casino, the providers are done, they're all good to go. IMHO, that's not how it goes and all they have to do is to make sure that they also have a good security that protects the operation. It's not just all about the wallets that they have, hot, cold storage wallets that they have to protect but also their main operations and users data.

I agree, security must be the top priority of any casino, in fact. For their own credibility and community.

the chance to win is there, but we can't guess accurately that the gambling we do will definitely end in victory besides that it needs to be known and realized about the chance of winning which is smaller than the victory that applies in gambling so most likely the end of the gambling that is done is defeat, I myself can predict that defeat is something that will happen more often than victory and in my opinion in land-based casinos or online casinos this is still the same, there is no clear difference between winning and losing.

the problem is in yourself who really can't manage your finances and this is caused by the rewards that are the hope of many gamblers until there are many cases of people who experience financial ruin when they already know gambling and do it. the online casinos that are circulating make it easy for many people to place bets but everything will be fine if it is done with the limits that are set, people who have problems with their finances since they know gambling are people who gamble without limits whether in online or land-based casinos.

online or offline marketing I think all casinos do it, because to make their casino crowded with visitors of course they have to do this. with them marketing it online of course it certainly requires spending money but I'm sure in a short time the money they spend to advertise or market their casino online can be returned, moreover we know that the majority of people now tend to do activities online because it makes it easier for them and gambling is something that is quite popular with many countries or people.

you are right, it makes sense to say that they have to travel which may be tiring only for the same result which is disappointment, because that is indeed the most likely thing that will happen.
but they can get other pleasures at land-based casinos, maybe like interacting with new people there or seeing other people win or others. and for online-based casinos, it is indeed quite easy for many people to do it.

That's correct and don't forget about the community which comes next after security.

The community is where they could keep it strong and if they are keeping the community healthy through bonuses and other events then I think they can keep the loyalty of them considering the user data is intact and nothing fishy will happen to it.
I mean, I have seen news where gambling services have been selling the emails of the users in the black market and I don't know if it's real or not but if it is a rumor then something like that must be happening to become an idea.
The community on the other hand can also help vouch for the reputation of the gambling site. I have seen new players that are urged to switch by means of a friend who is using another gambling site so I think it's important to spread the word.

Casinos bomb marketing's battlefield. No matter where. They know people go for quick cash, and the internet makes it easier. Click, click, hooked. Improvisation fuels casinos. Quicker bets, more money. They exploit our shortcomings to market products. Though gloomy, it works

Casinos online provide rapid gratification. Reality is, life's not all about highs. Connectivity, actual experiences is needed. And land-based casinos do that. People, feelings, and losses. While handy, online gambling isolates. Folks are social. Want interaction. Not even technology can replace that. We can't halt progress, but we can't be dehumanized. Be responsible when gambling. Money matters, but people matter more

Online can’t even come close to replacing anything that regular casinos have. I mean for one they can’t replace the bar and service haha because we all know we need that bar service 😂 lol jk. But seriously they are two different animals you really can’t even say they could even come close to comparison.

Now the competition is also getting tougher and many land-based casinos have online casinos as well for more profits.
Developing their business to get more profits is the way to do it, now it's the digital era and everyone needs gambling that can be played in the past without being limited by place and time.

There is a standard which all casino are provided by the license board to follow but many of them don't care and privacy is something that must be taken serious but I don't blame them too sometimes when I think about it. Some of them are just product of the players, they don't care too much about privacy and so the casino too follow the same order of things. Had it been there are instances where casino are been sue for not protecting user data, the rest will take it Serious.

I will choose casino based gambling than land gambling casino, I love comfort and less attention that comes to it and I can't stand the questions like if I'm gambling or not when people see me around such locations, its not entertaining and calm to me, that's my preference but another person might feel different since we all have different opinions on things.

Land based casinos will be just fine.  It's a whole different experience using them.  For one it's an entertainment center not just for gambling.  They have great restaurants excellent shows, concerts, etc.  A lot of people just go to be around other people.  Gambling to me is entertaining but by myself online doesn't really do it for me and there are plenty of people like me that probably feel the same.

Most land based casinos has adopted the strategy of getting an online casino aswell so as to make sure they are not knocked off the market some day, this helps them maintain a status that keeps them up to date and not phasing them out at any point. That way they even make more profit as it's like a two way thing,, they make offline and online simultaneously, only the casinos who are completely land based that risk the chances of been knocked off the business some day.

it is undeniable that everyone is looking for a way to get money quickly and gambling is one of the things that tends to be their choice, unfortunately they cannot get or make money quickly with the gambling they do. people who think they can make money quickly through gambling and I think those who think like that are people who have high hopes for gambling where they think they can change their fate by winning.

what you said is true, we cannot stop technological progress instead we must be able to adapt to the progress that occurs. online gambling in my opinion is one of the things that is most in demand by the community but unfortunately many are also wrong in their perspective by assuming that they can definitely make money in gambling when in fact it is not like that.

They will be fine, and they can survived, but there are casinos that are closing or being shutdown but the owners just have to renovate because some of them are brick and mortars casino that have been existing since the 80's-90's and so it is somewhat outdated.

It just only magnified when we have the lockdowns due to the pandemic and it's obvious that no one can go out and travel and play on their favorite casinos and so the emergence of online gaming. But now that we are back to normality again, traditional based casinos are alive and raking millions every day.

Running an online casinos is not as simple as they think because they must establish the site, design it, testing the security and everything to be running properly. That will needs time before they can launch it to public and their site needs to be check and tests by other people to see how the site runs. The team of the casino must make sure about the security and the wallet for every members so there will be no problem for their members. The casino owner must prepare some budget for their operational and the main account to pay the winner so there will be no complaint from the members when they want to withdraw their win money. Many things needs to be prepare and set it up so that will needs a hard work and all people in the casino must gives their best work.

No doubt that the competition getting tougher because every casino launched their site want to achieve a goal which is make a lot of money from their site. That is why all casinos must make sure that their site can accommodates a place for all gamblers who playing gambling on their site and gives satisfaction to them. When many members can satisfy with the site especially for their services, that can make more people join with the site and playing gambling with other people. Developing an online casino is not easy so the casino owner must have a solid team that can works together with all teams inside the casino so they can have a reputable casino among the other casinos. Once their site grow, they will see that their site will have the potential to make a lot of money from their business.

Nowadays online casino has become a very accessible thing all over the world and nowadays there are many trusted online casinos so these online casinos are being used very easily from every country of the world. A gambler can gamble in a physical casino but not every country has a physical casino so people of every country cannot directly go to a physical casino to gamble. And even if some countries have physical casinos, the people of those countries do not accept gambling as a good thing, so many people do not go to physical casinos and gamble because of the fear of shame. The advantage of online casino gambling is that if the gambler wants to keep his gambling secret then he can keep his gambling secret for the rest of his life because if he is gambling online then no one will know about his gambling.

Maybe it will never be suppressed and will come out right at some point. I agree with one of your statements that adding people to physical casinos is directly reflected in people, but online casinos may not be directly reflected. As a result, many people think that since I don't join physical casinos, I might be hiding from everyone even if I gamble. Not like this. If you are regularly involved in online casinos, it will be hidden from the public eye for a while, but when you become addicted to it and end up in a lot of debt, it will be revealed to people. Even if you hit the jackpot by luck once in a while, it is revealed to people. So if you play offline and online based gambling it will also be revealed in people.

While the new casinos don't look at that importance and they're testing the waters. They are sacrificing the security of their casinos and players for the sake of testing.
While they've got funds as their bankroll and capital for the casino to run, they have to include security for the sake of their protection and as well as everyone who chose to gamble with them.

Well now in the world that we snooters live in, most of the time we think is glued to a phone, some things like sports and activities that were exciting are not seen anymore, I think it's because of the change in technology, therefore the ones that are most Successful are the ones that have more marketing, more campaigns, more advertising, why? There are many people in the world that want to have fun and if they find an advertising that convinces them, then they will all want to make money having fun, for me that is the answer because it is more Effective.

Both casinos are modernized and work uniquely. Casinos, mostly, are run by hotels. I don't see a future where gamblers won't visit hotels, or travel on vacations. The traveling niche is filled with gamblers and people who play for relaxation. Unless the world returns to Covid days, nothing meaningful will affect the growth of brick-and-mortar casinos. It'll continue to expand.

For instance, everyone can watch matches on TV, phones, and laptops, yet the stadiums are filled to the brim. The same applies to gambling, most people enjoy the real-life experience. Online gambling is boring to an extent.

We have to start becoming wiser about this. Data and technology will help us to explain why people gamble irresponsibly and then develop mechanisms to stop it. It's about arming people with the knowledge to make wise decisions rather than merely seeking a short gain. But it goes beyond technology as well. It's about fostering conscientious gambling practices. We have to go from the "every man for himself" mindset and toward a society that helps one another. Though education is important, so is developing a feeling of shared responsibility. This is not about forbading individuals from gambling completely. It's about ensuring people do it sensibly, with wide open eyes. It's about building a society in which choosing to gamble is somewhat different from a trap. And everyone gains from this.

indeed gambling requires consideration in every decision-making, although some people who gamble usually do not consider the decisions they will take, which may be because they are carried away by the atmosphere so that there is no good consideration and that is why I think there are many cases of negative impacts that occur. the benefits in gambling can be said to be temporary, because when the benefits have been obtained, many people are negligent about this and make decisions that tend to be wrong, such as continuing to bet.

in my opinion, if we discuss gambling, it is clear that self-control, including mindset, is very important here for us to maintain. the problem is that most people gamble with a different perspective where they do not open their eyes completely because they only think about winning, while the clear risk side is often ignored.
for those who can gamble responsibly, they will gamble with the aim of being a means of entertainment and that is what is right to do.

That's right, there are some things that online casino can not replace in the traditional casino. Examples are what you talked about and the other that I earlier stated. Some gamblers naturally prefers the traditional casino over online for some reason that is of great interest to them.

Most places targetted those people who are aiming to have some fun, hotels which is the commen venue for casino knows that people who visited the hotels most of the times re people who loves spending time and money for enjoyment. Though online games are already booming but the desire of meeting other people added desires to keep you push forward and play.

I'm done comparing the online and land-based casinos because the two will always have their pros and cons, it now depends on what we want, and that should be enough for us to know the one we will choose. If the land-based casino is closer to your house/office and you want to enjoy the extra service of it, then it could be good for you. But if you want to chill in your closet at times and still gamble, the online casino is for you.

However, if we argue it further, your point about the bar in the land-based casino and the extra service attached to it may still be nothing to some people because they might be gambling on their phone/tablet and still be at a bar/hotel (not casino) that will give the same service.

This shows that if a supposed point is raised in any of the two, the counterpoint could be readily waiting for it. We don't even need this comparison anymore.

I have not really exceeded my point on comparing landbase casinos and online casinos and for sure there isn no clear difference except for a few things that make both different in an unnoticeable ways, such as the call girl's and the beer in the physical casino which have been the reason why many casinos users have become addicted to one of such things that are made available to them, and also online casinos gives a wide varieties of possibilities to make deposits from any where in the world, most especially the cryptocurrencies online casinos, apart from this differences, I can't find any other deference between the two types of casinos that we have
I was waiting to see you mentioned several point that make the two of them but then I did not see any of such and that is the basic truth about casinos, aside from side service nothing more in different among the two of them but it difficult to separate them at the end since both online and physical provides same gambling service to their clients.
There is no comparison that can result into any crisis in the gambling market among online and physical casino as their are all one and have same features and procedures unless for a few point that make them different.

Online gambling has it's fun and advantages so do offline gambling too, but the main thing about land based casinos is the lack of security, read about something that happened to a guy after winning a decent amount of money, he was robbed and they threatened to beat him up, land based casinos give out cash to winners which is very unsafe because you don't know who's  monitoring you, playing on an online casino is quite preferable because you are withdrawing directly to your bank account without anyone knowing about it

You must have misconceived my point if you think I countered what you wrote in my last post. As a matter of fact, you were valid and what you wrote is even the common sayings when it comes to the difference between the online and the land-based casinos. But in case you didn't get my gist correctly, my point is that people can still find their way around the two even if they find themselves in an unavoidable situation dealing with either of them. The post has also explained some situations where someone may cite an example of a land-based casino and how online-based gamblers can find their way around it. Above all, let's go for the one that is convenient for us in such a way that best suits both the situation we find ourselves and the mood of the moment.

The experience would be completely different, and someone goes there for the atmosphere itself, you know ;D There are completely valid points made here.

I do agree, but I think it's very rare though to see that kind of news, because if we did then every day we will hear gamblers being robbed always after winning big in the casinos. I think that is a very case, or maybe the victims knows the culprit because if their intentions is to get all the money, they could have killed them, but they don't them in the legs so that they will be just disable.

I play on both, but there is something in landbased that players will keep on coming back. And they are willing to take that risk even if they have heard that news. For sure they have seen it already as it was a headline around the world and not just in the US.

security in land-based casinos in my opinion is definitely there but it only applies to inside the casino, when they leave the casino having successfully brought victory or profit then the security is outside the casino so the casino will release their security, the occurrence of crimes against those who return with profit is no longer the responsibility of a casino and in my opinion there is no casino that is responsible for those who return with victory, except maybe if they pay more it can happen.

while for online casinos when we win and immediately withdraw it, it is true what you said, it is likely that other people will not know because it will go directly into our own account, both casinos with different bases have their own advantages and disadvantages, for people who like the atmosphere or interaction maybe they will prefer land-based casinos because there they can meet many people and feel the sensation of the casino where there are many people betting with different expressions.

What about internet provider? He also sees what you are doing. If you say that someone might watch you while gambling offline and evaluate if it is worth robbing you or not, then are you sure that nobody is monitoring you when you gamble online? And with online gambling and withdrawal to bank account, the issue might appear on the bank side. If you withdraw a huge win, you will get questions from the bank and funds origins with 100% probability. With offline casino, do whatever you want with your cash.

Talking about security or someone who can monitor the activities we do, I don't think everyone can be in a safe situation without someone knowing. You are right, without us knowing, Kuta might get attention from service providers, in this case internet service providers and so on. It's just that we are not important people like officials and others, so they also think why monitor people who are not important.
Online-based casinos and offline-based casinos have their respective advantages and disadvantages. In my opinion if we continue to compare this then. everyone will have a different opinion depending on their taste. So if we prefer to gamble online, then gamble online. If we prefer to gamble directly in the shop then do so. After all, no one forces us to play online or offline, we are the ones who will decide for ourselves.

I do not see the internet provider being a threat, not unless their employees is monitoring everyone and trying to see who is gambling or not. It might be a concern for the hackers though, if they see that you are playing and then winning big money online.

So it's a totally different outlook in online gambling as compare to offline gambling. And as far as my experience goes, knowing someone win big and then going home, I haven't heard that someone steals their money. And others to feel safe, will go and and check themselves in the hotel, or the casinos themselves will offer free hotel accommodation so that you will not go home yet and play your winnings. And chances are, you might lose it back to them.

Also casinos are great excuse for social gatherings. When you are in a hotel, there needs to be things you can do, other then watch tv, eat and drink from the minibar. So they have bars, but just drinking beer isn't enough activity, in fact it can be boring if you don't have anyone you just enjoy to talking to. So, they need activity. There can be spas but those aren't really for party mood.

Casino on the other hand is a perfect side hustle for hotel. It makes random guests to come same tables to socialize (at least on some level). Some people want to spend more because they want to impress people and even if they don't do it to impress anyone, drunk people will most likely spend more than they intented while toxicated. And while not everyone is drunk or doing their "fear and loath in las vegas", it's still quote common to order expensive drinks and party in there.

Both casinos have their disadvantages and that is why we should not start comparing because we all gambled in an offline casino before online casinos came out during the Covid-19 pandemic. I recently commented on a post which was posted here by a forum member on this board where robbers attacked am gambler that won $3K on his way home or so.

What I understand is that as a gambler we have our own choices on why we prefer one to the other, which is why I am not saying any of them has more advantage than the other. Personally, I prefer gambling online because of the privacy and easy accessibility it gives to me whenever I feel like gambling.

There has been online casinos before COVID 19. Even there has been many of them that have announcement thread on this forum. I have been gambling since 2014 and I have not gambled before on an offline casino because of privacy. I just like to gamble online and the public do not know that I am gambling.

This is true. I have followed a friend to a land based casino before but only him gambled. It was fun than online casino but I prefer to gamble online which is easy to access and also having privacy.

Good point on your last statement, it's your choice to play no one forces you either you choose online or offline direct casino places, it's you to enjoy and for the house to always take their advantage, like H.E and the emotions that they can manipulate once you are been dominated by your emotions.

Control over yourself can't be handle and the fact that there are many addicted gamblers means that both online and offshore casinos are taking that edge against gamblers who uses their services.

I don't know. The atmosphere in a land-based casino? I personally don't like it that much. Online casino is much more preferable to me. Can you play with as little as 10 cents in a land-based casino? Hardly. Can you be sure that if you win big no one will follow you on your way home with the intention to part you with your money? Again, hardly. You are pretty safe if you are losing in a land-based casino, but if you want to win big it's better to play online.

I think we all know about the significant differences between the two casinos between online casinos and land-based casinos, and there are also quite a few gamblers who eventually switch to online casinos, but I don't think that situation will make land-based casinos a thing of the past. As I said there are differences between the two, and it is a fact that everyone wants something different (although I am sure that the majority prefer something that is much easier to do.

The majority of gamblers prefer to get involved in online casinos, convenience and accessibility are obviously the main reasons, and the advantage of land-based casinos in my opinion is the opportunity for visitors to socialize with other visitors, and this is suitable for people who prefer a lively atmosphere. This means that I think land-based casinos will never be a thing of the past, the difference in choice and desire is the reason, but it may not be as crowded as it used to be before online casinos came into existence.

In terms of security and privacy, online casinos have their own advantages that we can't compare with physical base casinos.
As for the fun, for sure, landbase casinos have what makes them the best in that area, starting with the mutual interaction with other gamblers and the availability of some kind of physical entertainment that can keep the fun going.
But let's also not forget that those things can also be a distraction to the gambler, dividing his attention from why he is really there.

For me land based casinos will still continue to exist in the future because of the fact that not all gamblers love or able to play online. Traditional casinos are way more accessible to gamblers who know nothing about the internet or those who have no electronic devices and in addition to that the feelings of  excitement or the emotions in general I think is very different from those played online.

When it comes to user experience then we cant really be able to deny that physical gambling casinos would really be having that upperhand or simply having that kind of real gambling experience on which
you could really be able to felt out physically and thats the edge on why these places are really that still existing today despite of that techonoligal advancement or simply that everything is really that
turning out to be done via online. There would really be that specific markets in between places on which we know that there would be still who do stick into those things that they are really getting used to.
There would really be those individuals who do prefer on playing online because of the convenience on which this one cant really be that denied but there would really be still those people who would stay.

Doesnt matter on where you would really be playing because having both things would really be giving out that experience and it would really be that everything depending
on someones need and choices on which we know that each people would be having that different need.

Online casinos outperform brick-and-mortar casinos in security and privacy. Blockchain is the future and protects your data like never before. Thats a big lure for privacy-conscious folks.

We shouldnt kid ourselves. Land-based casinos are attractive. Lighting, acoustics, and energy create an experience. I'll admit that excitement can distract you from the game. Online casinos reduce noise, enabling strategic play. There's another side to this digital coin. You can lose track of your losses without literally handing over cash. Online gambling can become mechanical, which is harmful. Thus, online casinos provide safe and convenient gambling. Gambling is still gambling. Remember to set limitations, keep alert, and never pursue losses.

I don't think that online gamblers knows about blockchain, I'm talking about fiat based gambling and not crypto based as for sure some of us could be familiar of what blockchain is. But still it doesn't mean that we play because we want to be private or not. It's just the game itself, we wanted to win, that's it.

;D There is also this free drinks, not sure though if you have been in brick and mortar casinos because if you did for sure you will know that you won't get distracted. Although you can hear in the background loud music for entertainment, still if you are sitting in a slot machine, you are zone in the play and praying to the gambling gods that you get the bonus round.

I did not try to say that internet provider is a thread, but thinking that online gambling is safer because nobody is around you is also wrong. When connected to the internet, you are never alone. How can someone say that offline casinos lack security? Then what kind of security does online gambler has? An antivirus? :) Officially purchased OS and an antivirus 1 year subscription is what most online gamblers have. And saying that offline casinos are not insecure, because there is a story that someone got beaten and robbed. I am sure that has happened not even on a territory of an offline casino.

Can this happen on an online casino user: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5506402.msg64434464;topicseen

It is about someone that won $3000 on an offline casino. He was attacked and his two legs were shot while the robber wanted to forcefully take the money from him.

Online casino is more private than offline casino.

Yeah right, the physical atmostphere can distract gambler though most of those who loves playing offshores are really aiming to feel the presence of those people that surrounds the casino, I guess it's always going to depends on how a gambler thinks about the place either online or offshore.

They always have that different sentiments and have their own takes whether they want to play alone with the benefits of not leaving their place and just the use of their devices, or have some social interractions that lead them to enjoy and fill that desires inside them.

That is right because no matter if the technology still continue to grow, that will not be a problem for land based casinos to running. That casinos have their fan that want to playing gambling on their casinos so that land based casinos will still operate.
If the owner have an open mind about the technology especially for the internet development, he will trying to build his casinos in an online to reach more customer. He will prepare for some budget to start and hire a good team that have skills to develop his casino site.
Traditional casinos can still easy to access for gamblers especially if those gambler have in the same city with the casinos so they can go to that casino anytime they want. The casino knows that they can still operate their business to satisfying their members so the casino will gives their best services to their members.

It may happen too in online casino if we cant keep it as a secret for ourselves.
Lets say we won millions dollar or even less in online casino and we told someone (even our own family member), then the story might be heard by others.
Once more people hear about our winning story, there is a possibility that the story may come to "bad" people (criminals) who may take us as their target.
Criminals can come everywhere to anyone and from anyone, even when it comes to money, someone we know as good may become bad.
So it is always better to keep a winning especially big winning as a secret.

I like casinos have so many advantages over a physical casinos and with time many gamblers would have no option than to switch to online mode where they will be able to gamble at anytime if their choice without leaving their comfort zone. Gambling is becoming popular over the days we more people are joining the industry on a daily basis based on the nature of things in the world right now. We shouldn't be surprised that many to the physical casinos are now creating rooms for their users to gamble online without stressing themselves when they might not have the opportunity to go gamble at a shop or physical casino.

You are right but this is a bit different. On land based casinos, it is not a secret at all even if you want to keep it secret. But on online casinos, no one will know but some betting site officials which might not even know who you are unless they make investions. The probability of that is very low to what can happen on land based casinos. But if someone become a microphone and let people know about his winning, that would be his own problem. But the point that I want to derived from what I posted is that, even without telling anyone, land based casinos are of no privacy. Unlike online casinos. Not that online casinos are 100% private but it is better but at least it is 90% private if compared to land based casinos which are 0% private.

This will not be the case in all countries or in all societies. There are societies or countries where gambling is considered a bad act, mainly where people engage in gambling but do not want to disclose it. Gambling is a crime in Muslim countries if you are caught gambling there people will not only look down on you but if you are caught gambling there you will be punished. Sometimes it is seen that family members don't like gambling, so gamblers have to hide it from the family and play gambling with sufficient secrecy. 

People are now more dependent on online, earlier people used to go out for shopping, now people do that shopping sitting at home, and earlier people gambled more by going to casinos, but now most of the gamblers prefer to gamble in trusted online casino sites.

I deserve both platforms of gambling will be exist in their respective places and have good reason to be. There are some gamblers who do not believe in online casino gambling as they feel that when they go to a land based casino where they can directly participate in gambling there is less chance of cheating but online based casinos are more suspicious. But from my experience I think online casino is getting more popular than offline. People are getting the benefit of gambling as per their own convenience while sitting at home. As a result there is no need to visit any physical casino. Since people have different opinions, it can be easily assumed that both will have a place in the gambling platform in the future.

Yeah, many gamblers are exploring already with the use of online technology, just like with how other business are booming using online, gambling also maximizing this venue and with good offers and good communcations with online gamblers, casino manage to earn a lot and gain more attentions from the end users.

Though there are still gamblers who loves playing offshores those who wanted to feel the atmosphere inside the house, and those offshores gaming also adopting the system and also offering same services.

The advantage of online gambling can not be overlooked just as the advantage of land based gambling can not also be overlooked. As much as they both have advantages, they also have disadvantages too and the both will continue to exist as long as gambling remains. Most times, the  people that gamble online still go to land base casino to gambling too. Online casino can not displace offline gambling, the both will always be there.

it makes sense to say that over time it is likely that people who like to gamble will switch to online casino gambling which is indeed easy to access in my opinion. in addition, with the habits of everyone who tends to spend their daily time using their personal cellphones, it makes it very easy for them to access gambling to do. and they can also do it wherever they want or as you said without leaving their comfort zone.
but even so I think there are still some people who are still happy to gamble in physical casinos and maybe they definitely have their own reasons why they are comfortable with physical casinos such as with a different atmosphere or others. although looking at the current state of the casino, maybe what is more widely used by gamblers is online casinos, because they do have advantages that are quite easy to access.

That is just a rare case, and in the topic that you have provided it is mentioned that the area what this accident has happened isnt the most safe. I dont know how this really happened, but how those two robbers found out about his win? Was he flashing it to everyone?

This can not happen on online casino directly, but that guy could have been robbed when he was trying to withdraw his winning from online casino from ATM.

When it comes to accessibility and overall convenience then we cant really be able to deny that online gambling is something that would really be that preferred but we do know that there would really be those people who are really that wanting to make up with real dealing with those gambling activity personally and physically. This is why we could really be able to see up that there would really be those people
who would really be that wanting to play online because it isnt really just that hassle. Those physical places outside then it wont be shocking anymore that once those issues been resolved out
then this one would really be that forgotten. This is why it would really be having always the advantage on how they would really be offering out seamless project but this is something that cant really be predicted.

It is a fact, things are like that, however when we think about it ,  yes, people go to hotels , some go on vacation they will find hotels with casinos, although in some cases in some cities there are only casinos, it is a way of Having fun more focused on sharing and Seeing , interacting also with other people, therefore when we are seeing Everything that is possible to do we must not deny the inevitable, anyone can feel like playing, but a Physical casino for you has more Expense , because they have to change facilities, be up to date with the best, then it is a busy Business that needs customers every day, in online casinos it is Easier to update.

😂 Your imagination is vain, why and how would anyone rob a person trying to withdraw from an ATM machine when you as a robber don't even know the person or know if he has money or not, and besides, aren't there security guides on ATM machines in the country where you live?

The only time somone withdrawing from an Atm machine can be robbed is when and if he or she goes to an Atm machine to withdraw at night, but then, I don't understand why anyone in their right senses will want to go to an Atm machine by night to withdraw.

And you are even asking how the robbers got to know the man, it's simple. Winning in land based casinos isn't like winning online, when someone wins a gambling game in an online casino, there is usually alot of shoutings out of excitement, so the man must have been shouting, jumping and running up and down out of excitement, not knowing there were criminals lurking around and they noticed him, and decided to follow him while he was leaving the casino.

there is no clear certainty which one is chosen but of course everyone has their own taste, for those who want to interact directly with many people I think they will still choose a physical casino because there they can interact with many people who gamble and maybe get new friends too. for online casinos which are currently popular it is not surprising that many people choose them because they don't need to bother traveling far. and online or physical casinos certainly exist today and have their own advantages. I myself do it by choosing an online casino, how about you? do you prefer a physical casino to an online casino? the clear reason I choose an online casino is because as has been said by many, namely with easy access.

Land based casinos gives more pleasure to gamblers because they can meets many people and playing gambling together and feels the atmosphere. They can have fun with other people and sharing experience each other while they are playing gambling so many of them can find a bond that they can feels. That is the effect of people who playing gambling in the land based casinos in this digital era so they can still have fun in the land based casinos.

That will be the reason for land based casino still develop and grows because their casino will still have customer that playing gambling in their casino. But land based casinos that care with the new technology will trying to learn the development and if they find that the technology can gives the opportunity for them to grow their business, they will try to develop their land based casino into an online casino.

But a person just gave 1 example how a person was robbed after winning in offline casino and now claim that every offline casino isnt safe. Millions visit offline casinos, perhaps tens thousands leave casinos with big wins, but how many robbery cases we have? Maybe better not gamble in shady casinos in shady neighborhoods? I know a place in my city, that people got robbed often in 24/7 shops at night. You can go to a shop to buy cigarettes', and wake up in few weeks in hospital. But that does not mean that we have to do shopping online only.

Besides, online casinos have lists of jackpot winners, huge or rare winners. If someone is persistent enough, he might try to find that person IRL. Who know where social engineering will lead to?

On point, in terms of competitive approach offshore casinos needs to keep on track on how their competitors are attracting their clients, to make sure not to lose in the business competitions they need to really make that impressive offers to keep their current clients and to attract more visitors and possible gamblers. Though same with online both business need that kind of updates to make sure that their clients will continue to be satisfied and not left them and find a new place to gamble.

Environment play huge role for people to get entertained on what they are doing and physical casino could offer it to them. That's why lots of people got triggered to play more since they are been challenged on possible speculator since some want to show up that they are capable or either they are enjoying so much on what they experience since lots of things happen in physical casino.

That institution will remain since online gambling landscape cannot replace it since experience to offer is really different. Although casino offer convenience, But after few hours of playing we get bored and either want to gamble on other games or just quit because we are not enjoying the game anymore. But for sure those big land base casino would upgrade and adapt in the technology since they can gather a lot more money if they explore to put their business online.

Without a doubt, things are like that, so for many sometimes new ideas do not work correctly when it comes to profits, for example it had occurred to me that in a physical casino they would come to an agreement with an online casino recognized in the forum and put it in their facilities, to exchange the benefits for both, and that the profits could be shared in the casinos, it is not bad, you have both things, but in a physical casino, that is what I think would be new, obviously the digital casino games would have to be put on large screens where the player can enjoy themselves to the fullest.

Yes, I agree that environment play huge role for people because they can be invited by their friends or family to playing gambling at land based casino so that will make land based casino have more customer. But the technology continue to developed so like or not, land based casino must adapt the current situation and the casino owner can try to build a site for their casino.

But if the casino owner doesn't want to build a site for their casino because they are not ready with the competition, that will be okay because every casino owner will have their consideration. For a big land based casino, they will trying to analyze what is the benefit of having a casino online to them. If they see that they can make more profit, the casino owner will collect every information and hire some expert to handle their online casino. A good owner will try to look the current situation and check what he can do to grow his business and make more profit.

The different between online casino and offline casino is the experience of playing gambling. But some people still returns to land based casino because they like the experience of playing gambling and meet many people in that casino. That gives different experience to them because they can feels the excitement of playing the games and playing gambling together with other people.

That will be a different experience than when they playing gambling in online casino because when they use online gambling to playing gambling, they will not meets other people by real. They only know that other people playing gambling but they can not see who are they. But land based casino can trying to build an online casino to see how people reaction if they have two type of casino.

Technology is key in the world of casinos and its competitiveness, if found lagging, the casino will be left behind in this technological age. I don't believe the land-based casinos are lacking in this unless it's a mere old and substandard one that refuses to upgrade. I don't know the sophistication the online casinos have that the land-based casinos would not have if the two were standard, except that the land-based casino would have more, especially the extras which make it more hospitable. The arrangement of the casino and the games you play with them of late should be able to speak volumes of this but of course, the kind of land-based casinos and their capacity matters well. You will even be shocked that they are the richest in the field, which can only mean that the business is booming despite being land-based.

land-based casinos will still get their players. gamblers who have played at land-based and online casinos must feel the difference when the sensation of playing at a land-based casino certainly will not be obtained from online casinos. moreover, there are types of gamblers who tend to like land-based casinos or vice versa. there will be no shortcomings in this case, both have their advantages.

we can also see some land-based casinos that are popular in several countries. they are very big and magnificent. but I'm not sure about land-based casinos with poor standards. maybe if there is no development carried out by following technological developments, they will be abandoned. or the target of their marketing will target lower-class gamblers.

I think even with any arrival of pandemic or plague of any sorts there would still be a trouping in and out of land based casinos because fairly enough people like social gatherings and at such a they would want to conversate with one or two people while playing bets and games,so if it's been controlled like the number of people that go in the casinos it'll be more better.

And yes some people prefer online betting and casino,like they like  their gambling Life to be in private so at the comfort of their home they'll do what they know best.
So whether we are in digital age or not,land based casinos will still be visited and also applicable to online casinos too.

Good point, there are still land-based casino who manage to keep their clients and still moving forward even the challenges against online casino is threatening the business, more on how they handle the acquitance and the delivery of their good costumer service plus the atmosphere inside the place where most of the time gambler loves to visit as they feel the importance and the vip type of services, it's more on how you comepte with the business and how you deal accepting that you always needs to adjust to keep your business in line and running well.

Good point by mentioning customer service. In offline casinos, no matter if you are winning or loosing, customer service will try to do everything to make you feel good so that, nevertheless having a bad experience, you will return. You will never get such attitude in online casino. That is why some people will go offline casinos on purpose and loosing money wont bother them, as they understand that they pay for extra comfort.

In online casino we can get welcome message and promotions on our mails, but for me these mails are nothing different to spams instead of feel the casino care with us lol. In offline casino, no matter how introvert or antisocial you're, you will feel the warm from the employees and you will feel bad if you act something wrong to them.

We, as a human always need human interaction, that's why even we're getting individualist, we can't abandon the real life.

If you don't know the same physical casino kicked out a lot of players for no particular reason because they kept winning so I guess there are pros and cons are everywhere. In real world casinos there are different world which is kind of discrimination so you will be treated well if you are rich but that's not really a thing in online casino and I am sure most of the users will agree with me.

You are right; I agree with you about customer service at land-based casinos. They do typically bend over backward to create a nice experience for the person going because they know that patron satisfaction is what will keep them coming back to play even when they lose. At land-based casinos, service is everything.

However, I beg to differ that the same feeling cannot be obtained from online casinos. Even though the interaction at online casinos is not similar, many of the platforms also do invest in customer service that is responsive plus loyalty bonuses so as to keep the players happy. On top of this online casinos have the advantage of players being able to play from home and for some, this can be equally rewarding as it would going to a land-based casino to play.

So, there are differences in approach. Land-based casinos do have their advantages. The same goes for online casinos. Thus, convenience is up to the individual because of relative factors.

There is no doubt about it, only for that reason is that we as players have a different perception than others, and one of the reasons is the games, many do not like dice, some only look for poker, blackjack, others only look for roulette or there are even players who love slots , and if there is a casino where they do not like the way their favorite games are Presented, it seems Uncomfortable to them and that is respected, only the concept that one can recommend a casino is that it is reliable and that you can have more security when making a Deposit and withdrawal of money.

With all the popularity and advantages of online casinos, we cannot say that the physical lost their existence or there is no need for them. As you mentioned, there are places where people would love to visit the physical casinos, especially when they are on vacation etc. Just as online casinos are gaining popularity, it is important that physical casinos also transform themselves into a modern casinos where they introduce crypto payments and other facilities like big screens to watch live matches while betting on them.

Having an eating place in a physical casino can be another value added to the casino and attract more gamblers.  ;)

Online will offer the most convenience in terms of space and anonymity but despite having more space for gameplay, it's not exactly an exciting adventure for those who enjoy the hustle and bustle because what we are facing is not the human being directly there, it is the confrontation with machines and the banality in every action. Land casinos have more spice in terms of human emotions, a person who likes to see different scenes of the game as well as laugh at the pain or anything interesting, land still feels closer than all and it is difficult to fade this feeling over time

Young generation boys and girls are generally not showing much interest in land based gambling or casino because online gambling is more convenient than online gambling.
But still those who are middle age or old people are usually interested in land based gambling or casino because they are not very interested in online gambling.
Anyone can participate in online gambling or casino at any time from any part of the world in any currency but to participate in land based gambling one must be physically present.

There is no way that land based casinos every go out of business.  I mean eventually they will get "hurt" a bit more than they are right now, as younger generations turn to online sources for basically anything and everything, but there's always going to be a need/want for in person gambling as its a social thing.  They really are two different things entirely as playing online you don't get that human interaction and the thrill that comes with it.

I personally have not visited land-based casinos for a long time, the problem is that in our place there are no land-based casinos and if we want to visit it means we have to go to the nearest neighboring country. IMO, I am sure that land-based casinos have their own way to keep them visited by local or foreign tourists. maybe there will be some changes to make it more attractive to land-based casino visitors, innovation will always be made so that casinos always attract customers. so, I am sure they will survive. after all, land-based casinos also have something that makes them attractive to every visitor. especially those located in tourist destinations, for example Macau, Las Vegas and so on. but it seems there will be a little difference, in this digital era most gamblers are facilitated with online facilities. therefore, maybe the visitors are not as crowded as before, because online casinos are as lively as they are today.

Here we have 3 big casinos and it was like 10 minutes drive from my place that's why in the early years I was really hooked up on gambling and become addicted. And with my experienced, I think traditional base casinos are already good and doesn't need changes. They offer free drinks, and full entertainment already and they have hotels if you want for full accomodation.

It's different in Macau or Las Vegas though, specially Macau, that is the only nation in the world that I know off that totally depends it's economics to casinos and gambling profits. And it's not that bad though, their population have jobs in casino or at least connected to it. So this is one exception we have known so far.

Land based casinos have their own charm. In current digital era, there are still many who prefer theatres over cinemas, paper books over reading from the screen, IRL conversation over phone call or chatting online. As all people are different with different needs and opinion, there will be always need for land based and online casinos. Land based casinos is a totally different experience than online gambling, even though people same things.

Yeah that's right, casino owners knew how to hook clients and they are good in offering refreshments while you are enjoying your game, regular and those who are just visiting to have some fun will find that entertainment that they are looking, though there gamblers who loves to play online with the convenient of their own devices inside their rooms. Just the same casino owners still getting that rang of clients that keeps the business competing.

As long as cinemas still exist even though you can conveniently watch movies on Netflix on your phones and people still go to stadium to watch matches when they can watch on TV and phones, physical casinos will still exist. It's just a matter of preference whether you want to gamble online or physically, people will always like to hangout and entertain themselves with friends in physical casinos. It's fun to play games physically so it won't go extinct. You can get bored sitting all by yourself gambling on your device and you can decide to visit a physical casino or sports bet shop where you'll mingle with other gamblers and have fun. I think that they'll coexist but online gambling will grow faster because of the ease of gambling.

There is a difference between land based casinos which are traditional casinos against online casinos but taking about profitability and durability, digital casino will last longer than physical casino. When I want to get a real feeling of gambling, I can go to physical casinos but when I want to play for money, I do it online. Physical casinos can make you enjoy gambling because you will be surrounded by other people and you will want to socialize and have fun. Digital casino are more easy to maintain therefore there will be more created as physical casino will be physically not possible to move around and more costly to maintain or build in other states but online casino can be used all over the whole world as far their governments do not have anything against gambling in the country.

       -       In my understanding, there are gamblers who don't like online; rather, they prefer physical gambling they can see with their eyes and touch, and there are others who mostly prefer online because there is no hassle.
And there are others who like playing gambling,

whether online or land-based, and there are others who don't like it because gambling is not good for the person who tries it.

I share your view that land-based casinos will not go out of business but I disagree with you that they will get hurt over time, in fact, they will be better. The current earning statistics show that they are earning more than the online casinos combined. This can only mean that they are doing well in the business with a brighter future, and with the current reality, they are upgrading in technology as well, so I don't see how they will be knocked out of the business or get hurt. After all, they are offering almost the same thing that the online casinos are offering and even some that the online casinos are not offering, the difference is just the mode of operation. People will always have that moment when they need to feel that physical presence.

And even if you don't believe it, this was one of the biggest Attractions that when I met the casino was what motivated me the most even when I was in college, as is normal, when we are in college and we do many activities apart from learning, well I took full advantage of it, practicing sports , going to parties, going to drink beer in many places, when I went to the Casino I could see that I was entering an environment that felt much more elegant, where not just Anyone could enter, so one of the things I liked the most was eating chicken lollipops with beer, wow and playing that is the best , if you are in the full roulette, and you bet while eating and winning, that is a phenomenal sensation.

Also I will like to mention that since the new generation only knows about the online gambling and they hardly visit any physical casinos so when they visit those places they find them attractive with and full of fun.

Think that you are playing online gambling for a long long time and never visited a physical casinos and when you visited for the first time it will be big surprise for you. Only the old gambler know what it look likes to be in a physical casino and then gamble.

I agree, usually people who are a bit older are just more acquainted with land-based facilities, rather than trying other options ;D

That's true. But, online gambling is slowly growing. Boomers and Millenials are shifting to it. The revenue chart shows that online gambling is rising. It means more people know that online gambling is fun. It needs time to attract older generations to it.

https://imgvb.com/images/2024/08/30/98a15a95ad5da89eb96d9a7915d16e3f.md.png

Land-based gambling still leads in revenue. But, I think online gambling is slowly taking a bigger share. We may be seeing onlin-based gambling to be as popular as land based gambling in the next decade.

Average gambler like that is people with an age that is already getting older, they prefer to gamble directly because they can meet people in the casino or can gamble with their friends, this is kind of making gambling place for them to get pleasure.
Moreover, I sure there are still some gamblers who do not easily trust online casinos, they are much more confident and feel comfortable using land-based casinos because every win will immediately become money that they instantly see and get.

But I think everything will be the same depending on how each person thinks about the place where they gamble, there will be advantages and disadvantages of each place.
It just that it can also be ascertained that the percentage of gamblers who like land-based casinos from time to time will definitely always decrease.

Land based casinos offer more services than digital casinos. That is why I disagree that digital casinos will last longer. Take Vegas for example. "A casino" is a place where you stay, watch shows, restaurants and a casino itself. It a vacation. A place where people go to spend time. When digital casinos offer you only mouse clicks. When people get older and manage to earn a good living, if they are into gambling, they want to get extra service that just sit and bet.

I think that is the obvious difference though, I mean if you are into "casino" in Vegas, it's a complete fun and entertainment, staying in the hotels, with your family so it's really a vacation and then at night you gamble with friends.

But online casinos has also that advantage, specially for people who don't want to go to casinos. Yes, I have heard people with the notice like that, they are afraid to go to casinos because they think it's for the rich. But when online casinos arrived, they played and started to gamble and now they can have the same experience as people going into traditional based casino.

That's good news. Innovation should lead the way and the possibilities that come with it, in my opinion.

Experience could really be never be the same if we do speak about user on how to do the games and basing up on the ambiance on which this is something will really be different. There would really be people
be that sticking on playing into physical casinos on which we know that when it comes to ambiance and overall then it would really be that different. If you do have that money to play on casinos then it would
be your main preference on going into these places. Its true that you would really be having that kind of feeling or impressions on the moment or time that you will really be tending to go into these physical places on which its true that you would be having thoughts that all of people would be going into this place are really that rich ones and you as an average gambler then you would really be having that kind of odd feeling.

Their existence would really be that still relevant and do serve out different set of gamblers too. Despite of the advancement we do have as of todays then it would really be that understandable
that there would really be certain markets whom would really be trying out to catch up these traditional gambling things. Not all people or gamblers would really be loving or liking to play online.

Everyone has its own customer. But telling that digital casinos will last longer than land based is wrong imo. If it was about being afraid or preferring everything online to offline, then we wont have cinemas, shops and restaurants. Who needs offline service if we can order everything online and watch everything online. However, new stores, malls and etc opens all the time.

both online and offline will continue to run and survive in this industry. but with the requirement that they always make periodic updates following what their market needs. both online and offline casinos have their fans. not everyone likes online gambling. and choose to continue playing with offline casinos. there is nothing wrong as long as this business is still fun and profitable.
sometimes people who play online also want to play at offline casinos. because we know the experience gained will be different. while online games provide opportunities for gamblers who may be constrained in accessing offline casinos that may be very far away or even unavailable in their place.

Yup, that kind of experienced where enjoyment added when you are playing with real people and you are enjoying the treatment from how offshores casinos provides some special adds on while you are playing, things like drinks and other beverages that you can enjoy while staying either with socializing with friends or you are aiming for something decent when you enter a land base casinos, there are different kind of appraoches which both sides of business needs to address, it's a competition that owners always have something special to keep and to attract more clients to use their services.

The gambling world's changing, folks. These days, it goes beyond smokey rooms and casino machines. People gamble offline, online, and all points in between. Its about what feels right, whats handy, what gets their pulse pumping. Online gaming offers people more options, not about substituting casinos. Perhaps you live in a tiny town, perhaps you find crowds uncomfortable, perhaps you just want to play in your pyjamas. You have covered online gaming. Supporting online gaming is about seeing the complete picture, not only about enjoying it. Its about ensuring everyone has a seat at the table that the sector is robust. Its about being smart, inclusive, and constantly ahead of the game. Thats how we prevail, people. Surely believe me.

Doesnt matter on which one is profitable on which as long it does give out that new user experience or any offerings or services then this what matter the most. People would really be that choosing
into those places on where they would really be having that kind of good experience or simply being comfortable with it. Despite with those cons into those physical places but still
we've seen that there would really be still people who would really be loving on staying up into these places just because cant really be able to deny that gambling ambiance on physical
casinos is really that totally good than on playing in front of your computer. We could be having that socialism with other people on which this cant be experienced when playing online gambling.

Online gambling came as a result of internet on the phones and because of the ease and simplicity it gives them, gambler with phone can gamble anywhere anytime without an hindrance. The comfort online gambling gives you is unmatched compare to offline people but if we are to compare statistics and numbers of offline gambling, the people that are gambling offline still exceed the number of people online because not everyone can access phone.

There are still some people that can't access internet and have to go place where there available casino on bet and have nice time. You know it's not everyone want to gamble offline without not having fun but if you visit offline casino where casino are available, you will definitely get everything you want and enjoy everything to the fullest.

Tai sees that now, everyone can access gambling easily through their mobile phones and even teenagers can freely open gambling sites on their phones.

Now in the digital era, the number of gambling players via mobile phones will increase.
It also depends on how gambling is regulated in the region, whether offline gambling is legal or not.

Looking at how the statistics of the increase in the number of online gamblers are increasing, it is increasing rapidly.
