Crowded Casinos - Play or not?

[wwzsocki]

I think you are right OP and not only the crowd is noisy and won't let to focus properly, but the worst scenario is that one has to watch out for pickpockets and all other threats that arise in such a crowd. For sure the quality of playing in such a crowded casino is worse as usual, so in my opinion, it is a bad idea to play there if you are not used to such circumstances.

Comparing to the casinos in Europe this is indeed a lot of people, especially now in the coronavirus times, when everything is closed here where I live. People are now paranoid about handshakes and 2-meter distance, TBH if somebody sees this crowd, he will run away in fear of the virus. This would have a significant impact on the industry and players because a lot of them will try online gambling for the first time and many will stick to it, once they test and confirm that everything works as supposed to, but this is a discussion for another thread, I think.

In my own opinion, it is fine for me to play in a crowded casino. The only problem that i face playing in a crowded casino that every chairs are occupied and it is pretty hard to move and to play in your table because it is uncomfortable for me if a lot of people is watching, that is why i mostly go home if i knew that the casino is crowded.

That's correct as majority of the gambler are just having fun, when they are halving fun, they are willing to lose their money just to get entertain.
And, the fact that crowded casinos are so profitable, that would tell why they win most of the time.

Non-crowded casinos are profitable too, the only difference is the percentage of profit you make - but besides that, all of them are money-eating machines.

That depends on their operation, but we can tell a crowded casino is more profitable as they have more gamblers playing with them.
Just like vegas, even without seeing their financial report, we can assume that they are profitable as they have a good place and lots of gamblers are going to the place.

Let the virus pass first before going to crowds. There's an advice that we all know about social distancing and avoiding of those crowded areas.

Or better yet, wait to have a vaccine shot before mingling with crowded areas. So it will be months from now, before you can safely roam around. Though social distancing and use of mask will be good at the moment, but as much as possible, don't go to crowded areas if it is not necessary. Better stay at home if you have nothing important to do outside. You are helping not only yourself but also others.

Is it as busy as a real casino?  It was a surprise to me, because in my place there was no casino.
Playing gambling with the crowd like the picture in the OP in my opinion will only make our gambling concentration disappear.  If it were like that, I might never go to a casino to get away from such a crowd.
And I will decide to play online, considering that online gambling is classified as a lot.

I don't really prefer crowded places, a moderate amount of people is what I desire.

I can't concentrate or think of a place full of people, noise, a lot of diseases/bacteria spread out in the air. Instead of enjoying gambling, I'll still be worrying about my setting as it's not very comfortable. It's just going to spoil the entertainment I'm looking for in a casino house, and by just looking at the spot, it's very tiring. As you can see, the distancing of each person, we can't even move on that crowded pathway.

There are actual casinos that are like what the OP shown in photo. But I don't think it will be that kind of scenario once this lockdown is over. People are now more cautious with their surroundings. Also, just take a quick look of Macau casinos and how they are responding after their lockdown. Limiting the number of players and use of face mask are observed now. I think it will be the same with other casinos worldwide when they re-open again to the public.

Different gamblers have different thoughts regarding this.

For an extrovert gambler, maybe gambling in a casino is more preferable for him since he always wants to interact with many people and seeing many people around him makes him comfortable. He doesn't want to be alone especially when he is in gambling so he would better go gamble in a place where there are a lot of people than a place where he is just alone.

I'm an introvert person and if I'm still gambling, I would rather gamble online too not because I want to be alone but it is less hassle for me as a gambler and one more is that there is no near casinos in my place. Not all of the gamblers are near the casinos and they really want to gamble so their best choice is that to gamble using online gambling sites.

After this COVID issue, bet there would be lesser people than the usual but still crowded. Except that since Macau is still known for a gambling place. Perhaps, people there would just wear a mask but still can't follow social distancing.

Playing in a crowded casino is not really advisable, I don't wanna play with the crowded casino because having so many people is prone to cheating and stealing of money and it is so irritating to play because of so many people and for sure the place is so noisy and so hot because of many people.

I would rsther play where I can play comfortably, like palying online or even real life gambling but only few people because it will not be fun anymore if I am not already comfortable while playing. I will still consider playing wherr I can be happier.

Same thought here. You know the feeling of buying things but you can't enjoy it because of too much crowd. You will just get irritated by the number of people in the place. If there's a crowded casino like that in my country, for sure it's not safe. There would be a lot of thieves there. You can't even find the right place to be because you will be seeing heads wherever you look.

Yes, actually it is the same as we have in our country especially if it is holiday season, like last year, it was before up until after the Christmas season. The casino is really crowded like everyone is having fun.
But you know, I think the same way, the concentration of most gamblers might not be there but what is good about going in a casino like that is this crowd brings too much fun and you can get to know more gamblers. The essence of gambling while having fun with friends is in there.

[rodskee]

i only play mostly Slot machine so there is no way i would be disturb so i don't care how crowded the place here that important for me is that i am in front of machine and care nothing about other people.
so Either the place is over crowded or have few players it does not change my mindset and i don't wanna spend more money in VIP room because i usually play 1-3 hours and after then go home.

[angrybirdy]

I am not used to play in such a crowd, I might disregard playing in a gambling house if it is too crowded and will play in online gambling instead. I don't know if I can take the pressure of playing together with so many people with me and with people who can see how I gamble. It is embarassing in my part.

The feeling is so different even if the casinos are crowded, I play slot machines and other table game like baccarat and poker and the excitement and the experience is really a different unlike in playing online where you just touching your screens. I do not say that crowded casinos are much more better than online casinos but the the experience are really different. But there are disadvantages like today where the virus is spreading and it is better if we will stay away with the place that are crowded. For those gamblers, it is really better to play online casinos nowadays.

I think it really depends on the people, as long as he will not be disturbed and can enjoy the environment surrounding him while gambling. However, I still agree with this one, the pressure and experience is very different when you are inside the casino. The gamblers surrounding you somehow add to the experience of playing. When you are on the table, the facial expression of other players can somehow brings the thrill in you too. The winning moment is different too. But if the OP is talking about a crowded casino which will affect your privacy and enjoyment in gambling, then its better to play online.

PS. because of this pandemic, forget what I've just said, its better to play online for safety. Aheks.

At one side you are saying that it is fine to play in crowded casino but at the same time you are saying that you leave and go to home if the caino is crowded and full ?
I think most people do not like the crowded casino. It's always good to have few people in casino because in this way you are not distracted by public and focus on your game.

In a crowded place, noise is everywhere. Some are shouting, and some are laughing. During school days I'm the kind of person that can't concentrate reviewing when there are lot of people around me. Well I'm still the same person when it comes in playing online or offline games gambling or not. Loud sounds will just catch your attention so you will look to find that sound the you lose your concentration on that game.

This all depends upon person to person as some just cannot stay indoors and play online as they like to meet new people, enjoy the ambience and have good time in a social gathering sort of thing or be in the crowded place and other type of people would be those like less crowded or would like to live in isolation sort etc for them they would always prefer online only and cannot go in casinos or play their.

You are saying its going to fine for you to play in a crowded casino but then you say you feel really uncomfortable. Then why will you be choosing to play in a crowded casino, like the one given in the image. Why even do something that will make you feel uncomfortable. Look at the picture again, there isn't even enough space to breath properly, let alone play some games.

[dothebeats]

I rarely play on casinos that are near me. They are considered high-end and meets the standard of the global gaming community. I've been to Macau, SGP and Manila but I never really enjoyed slots or Blackjack and any other games found in such casinos that hold too much people in a single room. Add to the fact that the smell of the booze, smoke and perfume mixed in the air gets in my head and makes me feel dizzy. With or without the threat of a virus, I would never play in a crowded casino ever again. It's just too uncomfortable to enioy, really.
