COVID-19 and its effect in Gambling World

[shoreno]

The effect of COVID-19 to the gambling world is really drastic. Not only did it affect the real-life casinos in terms of gamblers and money, it also affects the online gambling world. Right now, we have heard of news that NBA games are already cancelled indefinitely. This means NBA online sports bettors are going to have a hiatus as well. I think this will worsen and affect other sports such as baseball, soccer, tennis, etc in the coming days.

ouch that is bad . this gives a big threat to the sports betting casinos  . i think thier sales can go down if this issue of virus continues but on the bright side is normal gambling site will experience an inclined on thier sales because other gamblers could be switching on them  . both ex sport bettors and ex offline bettors would find them sleves trying and playing a dice game or a slot game    . thats good because they can expand thier game list and to learn new sklll which can give them another source of income and entertainment

Correct, not only the offline gamehouse but also those heavy favorite sports betting games. After the suspension of NBA  we will expect more
games to follow this lead, and from that point the online casino will also suffer.
And adding to that, the reality which gamblers also needs to save money for their needs, if this crisis will proceed and take much longer time..

Seems IPL matches is also going to get affected due to corona outbreak since it has been announce pandemic disease where there is lot of money involves in betting every year.So yes it is affecting the whole world even we might see no one entering casinos in near future until this outbreak will be under control.

I do not think the matches will be postponed, I think they will happen without any spectators in the stadium. A huge amount of money has already been invested and BCCI President has already declined that IPL will be cancelled or postponed due to the virus outbreak.

Corona was now officially a pandemic disease and everywhere people are in panic which got reflected on global economic status as well.

If matches are going to be held without any spectators then more losses for the BCCI again because every matches thousands of people buying tickets at premium rate so BCCI going to be okay with losses.

And who is going to watch matches of the whole world will be in a mess.

I am of the opinion that the Coronavirus pandemic will be contained in the next few months and as the summer season arrives in the Northern Hemisphere, we are going to witness less number of new cases with every passing day. So I guess it will be better for the BCCI to postpone the matches, rather than conducting the tournament without any spectators now. But then, the international cricket calendar is very crowded and a postponed schedule may not be welcomed by some of the cricket boards.

I have been keep on thinking about what would be the effect of this coronavirus to the gambling world and now i have made up of my mind that the in effect of this virus to the gambling raid is that those casinos that are temporary close because they are not accepting clients from other country or locals because they are afraid to be transmitted disease with their other employees and clients so the market after company will be suffer from this happenings and that will be a huge problem for them.

[Kong Hey Pakboy]

COVID-19 have a huge effect on the gambling world, especially in casinos because governments would ordered to temporarily closed every casinos or public places to avoid spreading the corona virus, that is why it is a bad news for every businessman and casino owners. But it is a good news for online casinos because more people would be playing gambling games through online.

If this would continue on further months then we would really expect that lots of businesses will shutdown.People wont tend to go into those crowded places due to to nCov.

we have already seen on how many had postponed events which mainly affect neither offline or online platforms as long it do involves crowd betting then they are the main
ones that been affected and its a sure loss or profit for them.

They wont have any choice but to take security measures on making themselves safe with this one.

But then think of it. Casino is a common and usual place where people do often make contact not only by oral communication but also with touching bank notes, casino coins, and even dices and other things used in betting. Therefore, there is a huge chance that COVID-19 would drastically decrease the physical gambling and do somehow can change gamblers' physical gambling onto digital one. And with that, it can somehow increase the community of overall cryptocurrency.

I doubt we are going to see an increase in the amount of people using cryptocurrencies to gamble because when things get bad people have a tendency to try to save all the money they can while they can, and most likely from now on we are going to see a decrease in the activity not only in physical casinos but also in digital casinos as people get more and more worried about this virus and the possible repercussions it will have around the world.

[bitcoinst]

You are right, most likely it will be so. Already now you can observe how most modern countries go to quarantine, prohibit mass gatherings of people and so on.
Therefore, the next few months we can see the increasing activity of online services of all kinds.

One thing is certain with confidence - all addicted definitely will not miss the chance to switch to online.

 Has there been any crypto company that made any announcement about the virus related cancelled stuff? I mean it has been getting out of hand pretty quickly and I wasn't really aware it was a big deal up until today. Today has become one of the most commonly cancelling days it has been ever since this virus started, on bigger nations like italy there has been higher level of cancelling, and in places like USA there has been travel ban, and in smaller places there has been smaller stuff. But everywhere has a cancelling thing going on.

 I doubt it would continue forever but I am pretty sure crypto companies have to make some sort of announcement about the cancelling all together, %99 there will be refunds directly and the ones who do not refund the bet will probably be scrutinized like hell and would probably just get lynching from us and will be either forced to leave crypto world all together or just pay back with maximum damage already done anyway.

 Real life casinos must be getting A LOT less people as well, chips changing hands and people using same cards etc etc, it looks like there will be a lot more dangers to people to get corona virus infected in a casino so people are probably staying away more frequently these days.

 Lets hope the peak has already happened and we will see the end of it in less than a month or so in order to back to our lives.

According to the decision announced by press release about an hour ago in Turkish Super League, it was decided to be played without spectators in all competitions until the end of April. Actually not just football competition, all sport competitions will play with great silence.

And this week there are 2 very important football competitions that are important enough to affect the championship race.

Online gambling or other digital gambling is not only available in cryptocurrency and even before the outbreak of the corona virus, online gambling has become an alternative to many gamblers in the world I think so, even though they are switching to online gambling but still they are not fully using crypto because every country has digital money itself which allows them to still be able to gamble online using their currency. Online gambling has grown before the corona virus but after this incident it is very possible online gambling and other digital activities will become even more popular.

i heard if it before but they are not  popular  .

 when crypto came out , crypto gambling also spawn and become popular  . this is only time i invovled playing online  .  and i dont also think that those non crypto gambling sites survived up this point    . crypto gambling is something that is fast and anonymous ,this is why many people will prefer it compare to non crypto gambling   .curently many teams are unable to play and many games have been cancel due to the epdimic  .  it does have a big impact on the gambling world but mostly in a negative way

And they don't want to waste their money. You're right, yes 

And i feel it now by myself. I mean that wager amount in online casinos is decreasing. Crisis in real word 

[Meowth05]

Online casinos will surely receive surge of people that will gamble. The problem will arise is if they can accomodate all of this surge in players. Though there will be a surge in players, we must consider that not all gamblers will try the online casino, some might not get the experience they get in physical casinos. In short, increase of patronage for online casino will increase enough that people will notice but not drastically.

Yes, the gamblers that has an itch with their hands looking for a place to gamble might look to online gambling and with cryptocurrencies. I guess many of them are already aware of it and planning ahead to get in touch with it once the casinos are also locked down.

This depends on how wealthy the gambler is. But for small gamblers that doesn't want to spend for the moment because we're facing a global pandemic and together with the huge drop of the crypto market, we might relax for a bit and wait until everything calms.

This would be their opportunity to gamble and maybe invest at the same time.
If they are gambling using bitcoin, they don't have to worry on its price volatility as its likely to rise soon as this panic is over, so that would give them like a bonus.

This depends on how wealthy the gambler is. But for small gamblers that doesn't want to spend for the moment because we're facing a global pandemic and together with the huge drop of the crypto market, we might relax for a bit and wait until everything calms.

I could spend, I am not wealthy, and even with this crisis, we can still enjoy gambling if that could really entertain us.

Now i have to stay home ,so basically im gambling again because of the corona 
i'm not sick 

Great, enjoy, we will all stay at home because we are scared that we will be infected on the corona virus, if person like Gobert and Tom Hanks are infected, how much more an ordinary people like us, we have to be careful as this is a deadly virus, so chill at home, gamble all you want and enjoy the break.

The more the known personality and higher the chances of meeting or coming in contact with other persons the risk rises of getting infected . So people if possible should avoid travelling and I think now days even casinos would be quite empty as not much travellers are travelling and would like to stay away from a crowded place . This would have an impact in the gambling world for surely .

There's a big impact, a negative impact but at least this would also help the online casino grow at the same time.
This pandemic has starting to crush our economy, however, the gambling industry is big enough, most gamblers are online gambling so they can still certainly do their thing even without the threat is getting higher for the corona virus to spread more.

even celebrities now are being infected by this virus so what more normal people like us?we are more prone to this virus so better keep distance or don't travel at all for our safe keeping.

but i hope this will end soon because i missed watching games now and looking for championship in NBA and our Local Basketball.
