COVID-19 and its effect in Gambling World

[South Park]

I believe that online casinos will gain ground over normal casinos due to the negative effect that covid19 is causing humanity. Countries are taking security measures so that people do not frequent places of crowds. If we realize these contingency measures are replaced by online activities such as work, studies, entertainment, etc.

The effect on the gambling world of this virus will be enormous, in my country casinos were already ordered to close their doors and I can see this happening all over the world, many people also like to bet on sports and for the most part that is not possible anymore, so the only alternative left for those that want to gamble is to do it online but I suppose there is even a decrease in the activity of online casinos as people prioritize other things like buying supplies in the case of an even greater emergency.

I wonder how much pokerstars must be getting right now. They are an online poker website so they must be getting a lot more customers, they literally have 1 cent 2 cent blinds there which means you do not have to be rich to gamble there, I have played on those tables and I have seen pots that were lower than 1 dollar many many times, highest I have seen was 2.20 on those tables, so people were basically playing with as little amount as it gets and spending hours there.

With the corona virus and everyone being isolated, I feel like maybe there could be people who are staying at home and started back on gambling on online websites, not all online websites are crypto and not all gambling is sportsbooks, so there could be many online non-sorts games that people gamble right now.

What is happening now is just the tip of the iceberg. This virus is so contagious and there are probabilistic scenarios which claim that the outbreak can last more than a year and hundreds of millions may get infected. COVID 19 is manytimes more contagious when compared to similar viruses such as MERS and SARS. Expect total collapse of the world economy in the next few months. Under such circumstances, no one is even going to care about the casinos.

This is good for the crypto gambling world ...

[snip]

You're right and people do believe thats how it work when in talks of online casino where they do directly think of about crypto gambling online without even
knowing first that there were digital fiat online casinos for the time being or been a while.So they wont be sure if they switch to crypto or would just simply
jumped in into traditional gambling online for temporary basis until this issue or epidemic would be resolved.

Who knows? Don't be so negative, this is our of getting more adopters so why not . You've a got a point tho but chances for them to shift of at least try cryptocurrency as their form of bet while gambling is big especially if the online site they used have that kind of option. Besides, lots crypto gambling sites spread all over the Internet so it's impossible for you that you won't encounter one while searching where you play.

You cant tell because not all people will able to encounter crypto thing online unless if they do able to read it up somewhere on some links which would
awaken up their curiosity towards it.Im not really that too positive in regards to that but for sure there are some who would take some check and might
able to try it up later on.Not all are internet tech savvy which if they do find it complicated then they will surely choose fiat tx online instead.

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.

Some cities are having a lockdown and it's a good opportunity for online gambling sites to promote online gambling to gamblers in these cities, but with the way things are going, they prefer to watch what's going on around them than spend time gambling online, we are on a watching mode waiting if this epidemic will have a cure or just go away.

Being optimistic, It will decrease in physical but will increase in digital. More people will adopt the use of online gambling and will use cryptocurrency for betting. It is the rise of online gambling and the right time to make promotions on their platform to get more users and investors.

Getting attached to each other is already forbidden, one of the precautionary measures to avoid Covid-19. So that means, casino gambling is not recommended in this situation where the virus is very active.

It is indeed a chance now for online gambling business since they do know that those physical casinos had been close or temporary unavailable due to this
current pandemic situation of covid-19.They will surely use up that advantage to get more users or customers neither on crypto gambling sites or
to those traditional fiat ones.Hopefully that this issue would be resolved soon and everything would go back to normal.

Corona will not affect those who are enjoying online gambling. Online gambling does not need any kind of interaction with other players and as a matter of fact, the corona is not transferred online. We can see an overall decrease in the revenue of the gambling market but no evident effect on the pursuers of the online games.

Don't forget those rich and elite people that can afford to follow their gambling habits.
But in case, they will be the only ones playing with each other.
Unless, one of them will be infected by the virus.
This pandemic truly affect our ways of life, not only in gambling arena.

Well, this is the advantage of having lots of money where no matter what would be situation is they can still do things that they want
and wont stop their gambling habits or activities yet they can play anytime via online.For now its been restricted on physical places
but wont totally restrict them down.

Of course it wont be transmitted yet we know on how its being passed to other people via droplets either directly or indirectly.Its just dumb
for people to say that playing online still isnt safe for infection. haha

I really hope it does not get to those levels but many people are still not taking this outbreak seriously and that is a problem since it will become impossible to stop a great deal of people getting infected with the virus, if we are lucky the virus may be controlled during the next months but if we are not then its influence could last for years, in that case obviously casinos will be deeply affected as people prefer to spend their money in stuff they actually need instead of a luxury like gambling.

Well, people should avoid the crowded places like that when necessary, until everything calms down again. 
By the way, the physical casinos and other crowded places like that could also provide enough hand sanitizer and other hygiene stuff close to those machines for people to use.,

It is a great opportunity for the cryptocurrency casinos that have a lot of gambling games apart from sports betting to show off in the market.
I hope they are going to get strong reputation during the coronavirus era and people start seeking for online ways of gambling.
The crypto market gives an alternative to this activities.

Ofcourse.
But I would rather call it betting than gambling. It would be nice in online future to ask people to "bet but don't gamble". Bettors will be aware of the difference and that will probably help reduce the temptation to gamble or take big risk in online casinos. Who knows, the use of the word gamble for all bettings could be "psychological" pushing safe bettors into gambling.

Corona has really shattered the gambling economy since people are unable to enjoy casinos and bet on sports because no sports are being held anywhere in the world. We common people are simply ordered to remain at homes and people have right now many other preferences than gambling.

This is the time for other games to be appreciated, when sports betting was still available, majority of the gamblers are gambling on it, now that there's no games maybe gamblers now are already exploring other online games and new games will be introduce to them.

When the was no no pandemic yet, I use to gamble mostly in sports, now I am back to playing dice games, and as usual, sometimes I lose, sometimes I win, but at the end of the day, I always made sure to enjoy.

are you serious quoting that whole posts with more than 10 replies?Man try to use Snip or at least deleting other quotes before putting your own.


the effect of Convid19 to Gambling world is positive because since casinos are closed then gamblers will surely transfer to this online gambling.

Not too much TBH since there are no casinos who are going bankrupt at this time that they are closed. We know already that the owners gained a lot of profit in their casinos already.

The gambling economy?? In the first quarter of 2020, definitely their revenue has decreased a lot since they've been forced to close because of this shitty virus but as the problem is solved they can gain what they've lost in no time since many are gamblers missed gambling. In my opinion, as the casinos reopen gamblers will go there immediately. Spending your time in other things aside from gambling is a good move too since we can lessen our spending on it.

I believe that all gamblers, given the danger of virus infection, prefer to play online, comfortably from home, perhaps in the future when everything is over, we will return to play physically outside, but until then the online gambling community can only grow...

But we should also acknowledge the financial part of it. Since some of the people already don't have a job anymore because of this coronavirus (covid19) outbreak, unless they can still work from home and still can earn money.
If most of the people don't have money anymore because no more work, it could also affect their gambling life, no money, possibly can't deposit and play online.

Definitely, it would be so stupid to still gamble if we are having a problem with our income these days.

Our focus now is to prevent getting infected and to survive while staying at home, gambling has to be eliminated as part of our activity as we are not anymore illegible to gamble since we will break the principle of "gamble what you can afford to lose".. we can't afford to lose money at this time.

I am also a little bit worried about this kind of situation because those savings of other people who got no more jobs will also put into danger.
Because as we all know that gambling is also a kind of entertainment or such activity for some people who get bored, so there are still many possibilities that they can use their savings for their family to play gambling online.
I hope most of us become responsible especially these kinds of situations.

There are a lot of people today does not go into the gambling places like the casino because we need to have a social didtancing because we are avoiding the spreading of the virus, also there is an alternative way to play gambling because today we have now an online platform to play more gambling games by that you can enjoy while you are in your house and take a rest also you can be confident on playing without pressure because you are confident and compatible to play, also you can make an advantage because you can make a research about the things you can do while in the game because it takes time before they ask the question to you again for your deals.

The number of cases has increased a lot in just a short period of time. My sympathy goes to Italy, the president cried and it's terrible there. How I wish that this crisis will be ending within a few span of time.

Necessities first before gambling.

[Captain Corporate]

 I doubt we are going towards more of a "if nobody has money" type of situation right now, look at the world we are all staying at home and not going outside nor spending useless money for now, what are we going to buy that will destroy our finances? Food? TP? I think as long as you have a job and not fired and still get your salary anyway, you are actually going to be better. I mean there must be some people who got fired probably, but they can't fire you just because we have corona, plus if you get fired you can probably apply for some income from the government for it or sue the company that fired you and get your money anyway. Basically it is bad for them but not really for us.
