Enhanced restriction in gambling casinos is it possible

[robelneo]

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 ?

Tbh, it isn't a matter of restrictions in casinos and the like. Even if there were slots that are next to each other, as long as people were mindful of the current situation and know how to distance themselves from others to prevent the possible spread, then it'd be all good. Sadly, it's like some people are robots that can't think for themselves and only follow the rules set by the authorities. Ofc, it's natural that restriction orders from the authorities are required, but in the end people themselves need to actually learn how to distance from others properly.

Onto the question, I don't particularly think so. There's the existence of online gambling after all and opening up casinos for a limited number of guests would probably impact the business itself. It's like your putting personnel in a place where there's no one. You almost pay others for free. Instead of that, the owner could just tbh engage in charity to help the ones in need especially those of his/her employees.

IMO gambling places are no just to gamble with strategy and win. If you really want to win, online gambling sites provides better odds and you can play at your own pace from your bed. Real life casino for most is about having fun, drinking, socializing and partying. Most of the gamblers won't return if those restrictions are placed strictly.

It would be really difficult to restrict the gambling folks and maintain a social distance inside of casino. We know how crazy the things go inside there. The slots needs to be disinfected after every users and rather than places gamblers inside glass box, it's better to stream the roulette or other games so that the gamblers could bet from their home.

You can play at a slot machine on your own but you do not play on it exclusively. Players come and go at every slot machine. You may be a couple of meters apart from the nearest gambler but that button and that lever you are pressing and holding, respectively, have also been pressed and held by different people from the past minutes and hours. Chips change hands, cards passed on, and so on and so forth.  

Therefore, it is possible but highly risky.

One included in the guidelines is disinfecting the slot machines after one gambler left, there should be a minimum number of people allowed in the playing room, every player in the room should have a mask a facemask and gloves to protect themselves and strictly implementing the one-meter physical distancing rule, of course, there should be a lot of people who will  watch and remind players of the rules from time to time

It seems like you want to gamble ASAP lol. Anyways, I think there could be some regulations taking place. Since most of the casinos are now advanced, there could be improvements and new strict rules for members to play.

• Strictly cashless for cashing in. Most of the casinos now have their membership cards and have their balance there
• Distancing between players in the same table and frequently sanitize
• Only the automated machines would be active, not the physical ones like poker, etc.

Facemask is not ideal because the cameras won't be able to identify the people, and it might cause some ruckus on the casino floor or something. I still think that it's best to stick to online first, and hopefully, no land-based casinos would open up.

It's possible if they're allowed to resume operations but like wex mentioned it might not end well for them as not many would go out right away because of the possible risks of getting affected despite the precautions set. I remember hearing a few countries are planning to end lockdown in the near future and if there's minimal damage to it other countries might consider doing the same.

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.

Not unless there is a lobbyists that will offer undeniable amount this is not possible because gambling won't help people instead this will only bring them more desperate.

Imagine with our economy now?gamblers will surely try their luck more than looking for answers rightfully.

And also our government will make gambling the last priorities in this event i dont know with yours.

I think that it is possible but in my opinion these restrictions should have been made even before the time of pandemic, I am going to say that gambling industry or any form of it should be restricting minors because they are on the internet and I think that the only way that you can do that is by implementing a strict KYC. The restrictions in gambling at these time and age is not that enough because when the game is promoted people will flock to gather and gather disregarding the restrictions that areput in the first place, for me this is just an excuse by gambling owners to earn a profit at the time of pandemic.

If only we understood the amount of money been lost which might take all this sporting event or business months to recover when the lockdown is finally lifted then we'll understand why suggestions like this are popping up into their head in search of alternative to get things moving as usual before the pandemic outbreak.

Initially I was off the opinion, that everything should be on hold to see how quick that'll help in fighting the pandemic but recently my mindset have changed as things aren't getting better at the rate I expected. If any business can carry-on their normal function at the same time practice social distancing then I don't see a reason why they shouldn't be allowed to do so.

Having restrictions in a casino gambling would be really hard,  having social distancing in casino gambling might be broken because if people tend to play they wouldn't mind social distancing especially if they are really used in gambling. Some gamblers didn't mind people around them especially when they are losing the game. So for me, closing casino gambling as of this currency situation would be still really important because casino gambling is really a crowded place and it is really hard to implement social distancing there.

IMO gambling places are no just to gamble with strategy and win. If you really want to win, online gambling sites provides better odds and you can play at your own pace from your bed. Real life casino for most is about having fun, drinking, socializing, and partying. Most of the gamblers won't return if those restrictions are placed strictly.

Well said, it is better to play online gambling than casino gambling as of this current situation, this pandemic virus is still existing in our world so the possibility of transferring it to others would be high if they will play in the casino gambling.

It is.

If they have to get back to business with precautionary measures following the restrictions due to the corona virus, they can. They have to be strict while having their business back with the essentials of taking care of their customers.

[smyslov]

Some countries have flattened the curve and casinos if they can comply with guidelines set up by the government can re open their business but it should be gradual like minimizing people who can play, sitting arrangement that will enhanced physical distancing, we are going to have a new normal as long as there is no vaccine yet and it's a good time to set up while the curve is flattened.

[kotajikikox]

If i am to decide yeah why not?there are large amount of taxes from gambling establishments that has not been coming now because of stop operation when they can do preventive measures inside casinos.

So yeah this can be possible if will be allowed by the government but of course with high restrictions and health support system.

Actually, I think the idea being discussed here is the restriction in gambling on reality casino where people can meet personally. As we all know how this virus is so sensitive when it comes to spreading. Casino in reality might be one of the reason to spread of it because of the idea that there are many people always gathering in casinos. I think qfter this enhanced community quarantine, casino must stays to restric their players and put some efforts to avoid the contact as well.

Also casino gamings need always to sure the safety of their players in order to avoid the spreading of virus. Even if this quarantine ends, I think the pandemic still risky and will always come back if the people around us doesn't have any discipline. Casinos must alwats be strict to the implementation of their safety and regulations to ensure the awareness about the pandemic we are facing.

Very possible. They just need to control the crowd by setting a limited individuals inside the casino. Strict social distancing will be observed all the time. The most challenging part with this set up is that the gambler will have to take another risk other than just lossing their money, now with the present pandemic, their health security is also put at high risk, that no amount of resources will take them back to life once they get infected and eventually die.
Now, the question is, are you willing to wait till this pandemic ends? Or gamble now to satisfy your urge and put your life at stake as well? When you die, you're no longer able to gamble forever, or just YOLO your way to the casino today? lol  

[stadus]

Of course it's possible as the casinos are always in charge to implement the measures, but the have to ensure they will not violate their own rules and go greedy because with enhance restriction, we understand that it bring the usual income the casinos are making, due to the limit of number of gamblers but if they still have to operate, they can still do it.

Also, I am thinking that if the government will approve it, this will be mean a strong punishment for violators.

There is no problem if they would implement a much enhance restrictions with the crowd and still apply social distancing. It is what they call the "new normal". Therefore, even if they would not start to open today and just wait for the pandemic to fully end, the new system and distancing would still be a normal norm to actions of all people whom, are not afraid, but, just being safe than sorry.
