Enhanced restriction in gambling casinos is it possible

[peter0425]

There are boxing events that are being held, there are talks that some sporting events are going to push through with enhanced restrictions, is it possible with gambling casinos, of course, you can play a slot machine on your own, they just need spacing on every slot machine, on roulette games they can install glasses to avoid every bettor coming near to each, other so are on the other games .

Do you think it's possible for gambling casinos to open now with enhanced restriction and customized set up, what do you think ?

Casinos won't get priority as sports events because on sports it is possible to control the players but in casinos anyone can be a player and its not possible to control everyone by the casino officials and social distancing on some games will result into frauds so its better to keep the online casinos as a place to play casino games until there is a vaccination for this corona virus.

It is clearly mentioned by OP that if the casino owners make cautions by put spacing and cover in each places so the gamblers will have Social distancing and they can spray alcohol from time to time to make the whole place sanitized.

I dont think so, even medical staffs who wear personal protective equipment still gets infected because of the little lapses or mistakes or the patient itself lies about his travel history and condition how much more with casino's and gambling houses.
Especially when the virus has no symptoms at the start and even undetected with temperature gun.

That is being careless on those medical staffs thats why they are become a victim.

What the OP is asking is actually already happening in Macau casinos. So it is possible for casinos to open but there are some restrictions like what Macau is exercising right now.

I think this will be the new normal for now, while the vaccine is still not available to the public.

That's right, Las Vegas is studying how to reopen casinos. The number of visitors to casinos is limited, only half of its capacity will be allowed.
The new rules require:
Occupancy limits of half of each casino’s previous numbers in each gaming area
Three players at each blackjack table
Six players at each craps table
Four players at each roulette table
Four players at each poker table

China seems to have already said they have contained Corona, they can open their casinos as what made Macau's economy grow, it probably depends on it. They are still taking precautions by the looks of it.

But its gonna be different from Las Vegas because the cities are in US are still contaminated with Corona. They gonna need flood their casino with sanitizer to make it safe for gamblers.

I've been thinking that one of the possible major mark of this covid that will be left to us even though it is fully wiped out or vaccines were already developed is by strictly maintaining the cleanliness every where. Alcohols or handsanitizers will always be present anywhere like in grocery stores, offices schools or even in gambling casinos since things used in casinos were touched by different players each day. So I think yes it is possible that the gambling casinos will enhanced their restrictions to avoid the same thing that happened.

[figmentofmyass]

only 4-max poker allowed! that really changes the game...

Does it have a large effect on the game? I'm not sure, but I know that there would be more possibilities of hands though.

it has a huge effect. compare preflop ranges people play, for example:

early position 9-max:



vs early position 6-max:



at 4-max, you can imagine it gets much looser and more aggressive than that even, due to the speed of the blinds hitting. no waiting around for monster hands, otherwise the blinds will eat you alive.

you'll see much more 3-betting and 4-betting. bluffing and post-flop play become much more important in short-handed games because everyone is playing much weaker starting hands.

It can be possible because people will surely do know that there is still a threat in their health if they will not go into a right distance to avoid the spread of virus now that the pandemic is still on and there is still no cure for it. Surely, people are still afraid for a bad thing to happen so I think it can be possible to let people get into a right distance well of course with the guidance of staffs and personnel to make things work. But, there will surely be a change on the environment specially playing in a casino that usually being gathered by massive number of people, and now that the allowed capacity will be in control to avoid the spread of virus, then there will be a change on the ambiance of the game place. But that will be considered to become a "new normal" while there is still no cure for the virus. Certain restrictions must be implemented so that there will be no further bad effects to happen if gamblers really insist to play in a casino, then they must obey the enhanced restrictions just to make sure everything will be under control.

casinos, online gambling sites offer the same emotions that the physical places where you can play, the physical places have the most atmosphere, people, drink something in the company of friends, socialize, but if all these things can not be done because we have to respect the distances, maybe it's better to wait until they can really reopen safely

If a particular country already flatten the curve, the casinos there can re open under strict restriction, I think gamblers should undergo a quarantine pass and they should pass medical test, before they are allow to play in the casinos, they have the money they can do that, it's a win win situation for gamblers and gambling casinos, who pay big taxes.

Way overboard for making a physical casino look healthy enough in this situation. Not needed in my opinion, but an addicted gambler will feel the need to gamble and thus they will forget all norms of social distancing.

Of course the offline casino business suffered a great deal during this time but the online casinos flourished. Even then there are live dealer games in online casinos which are going to affected. Also the sports betting games got affected a lot due to cancellation/postponement of many games.

So in a way the EV- games kept their ground because they dont need humans to mediate them and EV+ games reduced. All in all, more profits for the casinos running online.

When a gambler wants to play with so many sounds, they will choose the physical casino so they can get the excitement which they search. But if a gambler wants to play in a quiet, they will choose an online casino because they can play in their room without anyone who knows what they do.

But I think the casino will use some protocol to save the people who want to go to the casino, and they will take care of them, so they don't have to feel afraid from the virus. I agree that they need to wait for a while until the promoters can announce that the event will be safe for them.

In my own point of view, the government will still restricts casinos to open because even they change the setup inside the casino, it will still be impossible for everyone to follow the simple rule of social distancing and proper hygiene. Also, public casinos is always crowded, so it will be unfair for everyone who wants to gamble inside the casino if the casino is limited entries.

The government where I live now has opened up religious places like churches and mosques which gather a lot of people inside of them.They claim that will follow government instructions and pray differently than before in order to stop spreading of Covid 19 from there.The only licensed casino and the biggest one is open and operating.
New cases of Covid are going down daily and not only here but in all Europe so I think soon everything should
open up gradually.

Good to hear that, if Churches were allowed to open, then for sure establishment that gathers masses will be allowed to open soon.
Actually if the social distancing will be followed there would be no problem with that but what the government are doing right now is that they are just testing and will evaluate the situation, and if the situation gets better then they will open the other businesses as well.

Slowly we will be back to normal, provided cooperation among people is seen.

New cases of Covid are going down daily and not only here but in all Europe so I think soon everything should

Another good news, but as long as there's no vaccine yet, we can't be so confident it will go that way, with just one mistake, things can escalate again and we don't want to see that when the government have done a lot of measures to improve the situation.

Well, not all countries are allowing religious activities knowing that religions doesn't seem to have huge contribution to the economy. Some government believes we can at least pray in our houses. Instead, they're opening up first those establishments who can revive back the economic status. Malls, selected business establishments and casinos are top priorities.

If I were a hardcore gambler, I would rather choose to gamble at the comfort of my home anyway, not gonna risk my health inside the casino.

[TheUltraElite]

You understand that the government also needs money right? Taxation from fiat gambling is a big part of the government's income in those countries where gambling is legal. This is one the reason of the "lift lockdown" mentality but lets not talk about that here.

So if norms are being followed they will likely pass an audit that makes it seem that the casino is clean and hygienic to pass local authorities and then restart operations. Now this is just a covering to pass on, you have to take your health in your own hands and decide what you will do, gamble outside or gamble from home? After all if you get infected, you will not be able to implicate the casino as a reason obviously.

I hope the government will still stay alert even they already opened up religious places because we are still at the pandemic, and no one knows what the next thing that can happen. It is good to hear that the cases of Covid are going down daily, but we need to be still careful because the Covid still not end right now. I am sure with some high-level security to apply in the public area will help to reduce the number of people who can get infected so people will not be afraid again if they want to go to someplace.

It's very rare to see a church being guarded compared to a business establishment, I think they are also prone to transmitting the virus so it's just really up to us and we need to be responsible as not everyone of us can be guarded by those who are in authority to ensure we comply with the proper guidelines.

Yes, that is true but from the begininig it was different approach towards religious institutions and businesses. I.don't know if that was justified but it was so.
Anyway, it's really everything up to us and how we will have. In most countries that don't preforne anymore strict measures casinos are opened again, together with other entertainment industry and so it's in my country too.
Governments can implement different measures to protect public health but if people will not stick to that, it doesn't make any sense.

One way or another, not just casinos even other businesses have to make adjustments since Coronavirus as advised by professionals is here to stay just like other seasonal diseases. So, I guess for casinos to operate they will have to comply with safety requirements that are needed for their operation to lessen the risk of spreading the virus.

This might be difficult but this has to be done for our safety. We need to accept the new normal.

[Finestream]

But the religious building is a place for many people to gather and pray, so that will not be a place to transmitting the virus.

We never know, once people are in the same building, a disease can be transmitted, and bear in mind that every religion has difference culture they follow, and some religion are close with everyone when they praise God, even in our religion, we set each other because we like to feel that we are a real brothers and sisters, but as of this time I am have not gone to Church yet.

We don't want to see many people get infected in that place while they pray. Many public areas need to being guarded to prevent the virus spreads. The casino because the casino is one of the places which have many people come to play a gambling game.

If a casino is open, the church will also demand to be open, that's expected already since although they are religious organization but some Churches also make money from the donation of their followers, they are just fortunate in our country as Church are not require to pay taxes.

There's now one country that declared they are COVID free and that's New Zealand. And basically, casinos there will get back to normal too.

That's a bottom line, there will be some safety requirements and people (with all business owners and workers, between all others casinos too) will have to accept those new regulations, if not they will not be able to work, first inspection will close them and they will lose money and probably they will have to pay some fines.
Here we don't have to worry about that, it's simply crypto gambling, like during pandemic and now after that pandemic we will do what we did everyday, gamble freely and enjoy in all gambling games, without any new regulations and restrictions.
So buy some crypto (if you didn't do that until now, or you don't have any coins), simply make a deposit in any crypto oriented casino (there're many good ones) and gamble all day and night, naked if you like.
