Social aspects of online gambling

[Sandra_hakeem]

In my personal opinion: I think casinos that feature crypto gsmbling are somewhat lacking in terms of how players can communicate with each other. I get that some people that gamble online might actually want to avoid talking to other people, but what if you can only gamble online and still want do socialize a little bit?

I don't think any casino is lacking anything for not creating that inevitable mutualism between fellow gamblers... If some secret dms and open interactions could be made, it'll trigger people into sharing their experiences -- good or bad -- and that might get the other person on Thier high heels for safety reasons.
creating a social bond on casinos could also not be a regrettable decision to make.. but I feel the "unnecessary interactions" is basically the reasons why some peeps would wanna avoid land-based casinos...

Depending on the game the social aspect can be quite important, if you are playing poker live and you are chatting with the rest of the players, and suddenly one of them has a change on their attitude, this can be an indication that the cards they received are very good and you can take the necessary actions during that particular round to deal with that player, so do not minimize the importance of the social aspect in gambling, since there are many instances in which it can save you from making a poor decision.

In live settings for poker game, the ability to observe and interpret changes in the attitudes or behaviors of other players can indeed provide valuable information. Recognizing shifts in demeanor may offer insights into the strength of their hand and, in turn, influence your decisions during the game. The social dynamics, including interactions and non-verbal cues, contribute to the strategic element of the game.

Being attuned to these social signals can potentially save you from making poor decisions and enhance your overall gameplay. There are multifaceted nature of these activities, where strategic thinking, psychological awareness, and social dynamics all play a role. Being mindful of these elements can contribute to a more nuanced and enjoyable gambling experience. Moreover, what would you do after folding the round while waiting for another round!?

I don't think there is any potential to socialize with others when you chose an online platform for your activities, still there is a live chat option where player can interact with others who are online but most people don't really want to socialize via gambling platform. Because we have tons of social media apps for that same purpose where people interaction is the only thing they do.

But Live chat if it is intended as a tool for socializing then in my opinion it is not enough, and it will only be like when we watch people's live streaming, when we greet the user it will accumulate messages that we do with thousands of other people's messages, of course this is not effective if the goal is to socialize.

But for me personally that the gambling platform is not a place to socialize like other platforms, so far no one has a peer-to-peer messaging feature in my opinion, but if anyone launches it is a new thing and it is very interesting in my opinion, where we can interact with many users of a casino around the world, and we can share ideas or tips with other users easily, if it is seen as good it will be very good in my opinion.

Well that would be kinda hard for your side since most of the people who gamble online, doesn't really look for socializing when playing. And probably most of the reason why they choose to gamble online is because they don't want to socialize and maintain small talks only. In my case as an online gambler, I just want to focus on playing and doesn't really look for someone to talk to while gambling.

While on the other hand, physical casinos are more on socializing and making connection with other people inside the casino. If you want to gamble and socialize at the same time, maybe you can do it with sports betting and then join groups or channel in discord.

I think they choose to play gambling online mainly because of its convenience and not because they are avoiding socializing with other gamblers. On the early days of online gambling, there is no such way to communicate with other players and maybe the gamblers are also the ones who request for this. Luckily there are now. It started from a simple personal message, to a forum, and then having a public shoutbox.

Socializing while playing gambling has never been this easy now. Some are still different. Like you for example, you don't want to socialize with other players for some reasons. That's okay. No one is forced to do it anyway.

You can already stream to 3rd party sites, it would quite exceptional to expect the site itself to allow streaming.  But I agree more then live chat would be ideal, if the game is simple enough then view friends should be possible to do which isnt streaming but duplication of view seems more feasible in a simple way.   Its in the site's best interest to introduce social aspect as much as possible because its more of a reinforcing experience then plain gambling by itself, generally people like to share or at least boast about their wins and being able to commiserate on the losses might be a possible too.

Exactly, even if poker is a game of skill, the fact that luck plays such a prominent role means that the highest level that can be reached is somewhat limited, so poker players need to find for other ways to make up for that limitation, and being able to read the reactions of your opponents can make a massive difference, because even if you were able to do this only half of the time, over the long term this will have massive implications when it comes to the amount of money you can make with poker.

You have the option to socialize or not when you gamble. But if that doesn't feel you good, you have the option to just ignore them and never talk in the chat and that's the same in the physical casinos but it's kind of awkward when someone approaches you and talks to you and then you never get to talk to them then you might be accused that you're snobbish and hard to approach.

There is nothing wrong being ignoring when you gamble because you're not there to socialize but just to gamble. But the fun there is you gotta meet new people and talk with some new connections but then again, it all lies up to your idea and intention if you want to go there and do something that you don't like while you gamble. So, putting aside the socializing and focusing on yourself to gamble is what you can do.

Just remember that it's no fun to become a loner but if you enjoy that, there's no argument needed to prove. But it won't also hurt you to have some good conversation, meeting new friends physically and online because they can be of your cheerful friends when your bets seems to be always failing you.
