"NEW NORMAL" Betting

[KTChampions]

Having a computer does not contradict the presence of a TV or smartphone, so I agree with the direction of your thoughts (I hope I understood you correctly) - gradually these technologies will become commonplace and everyone will have them. It is quite possible that events such as quarantine will serve as some kind of "unplanned" impetus for the mass adoption of these technologies.

Well, if that will be the future then I guess I'll start learning how to use it now, you make me interested now in testing it, lol..

Anyway, I believe it will take time though as majority of people will still prefer watching in TV or in their cellular phones as it's more convenient and talking about the cost, some countries which income is not that big can't afford to buy that kind of expensive stuff.

I think there is a big difference between TV and smartphone/PC. TV is a passive consumption of information (which is probably why it is so popular even now ) a smartphone/PC is another niche because active surfing consumes energy and it is very different from watching TV. It seems to me that VR can become a kind of “continuation” of the concept of TV and this is its trump card.

Totally agree! Life is important, the effects of the Coronavirus are untold and it will remain marked in the history of humanity.

The effects are currently been seen among countries and it will take longer than expected to get.back out normal life again. Humanity will adopt new ways to interact with the day-to-day business in life, the sporting world has gradually be open and more are Still opening for a new world order. During the lockdown, many of my friends have learned on how the internet can be beneficial to humans. They have since getten into the sporting world, all the games they're currently participating are from the lockdown.

Some say that effects of pandemic and the fact that the second wave is a threath will prolonge the time to get to normal life. Some say that we will never have life as we new before, so the normal before pandemic. I'm not sure what will happen but I don't like the term "new normal".
Anyway, in current situation internet and new technologies play very important role in our everyday life, including in gambling industry. That "new normal" also brought more people to online casinos which is good from my point of view but still there will be people who would like to go to phisical casinos and I wouldn't like that they vanish because of "new normal".

The term "new normal" doesn't sound good IMO too as it looks like we are going to embraced this permanently, but for those who really have an idea and understands what's happening now they won't panic because the government promise that the vaccine is available next year.

Let's say it's the new normal this year but next year we will be back to our old normal which is what we like.

I will talk about the effect on gambling, normally, gambling is still ongoing, I still play casino and other types of gambling. But aside one that I was missing before which is sport. I was unable to stake on sports games but now the season has continued. Even without the coronavirus vaccine yet not found, its effect on sports has also now reduced.

[peter0425]

Totally agree! Life is important, the effects of the Coronavirus are untold and it will remain marked in the history of humanity.
I also love the return of some sports like football and boxing. It gives us the entertainment, and it is a valuable effort to reactivate the economy.

Hope that this is also the mindset of addicted gamblers.

Because as of now all they wanted is to go in casino hauses and covers all their activities that stopped during the lockdown.
They don't care if the situation now is more risky but what they want is to Bet and bet .

Right, we have to realize that even though this new normal era has been put in place, still, the vaccine to overcome this virus has not yet been found and we have to be careful and not have to go out just to follow the passions because health is more important for your own life anyway, gambling can still be done online.

Indeed and even the Virus Vaccine is there Yet we need to stay at least Months first before living truly normal again.

Because this Virus is traitor and we have no idea which or whom is infected so the more we stay away from others is the more we can stay away from the Virus.

Well the lockdown was horrible to me per se but was able to quenched the hunger of gambling during the lockdown. I wen into virtual sports betting and was doing this until recently when some games opened for public and some which we're expecting to resume back fully soon. This virtual sports betting is the reason why I love Naija bet among others, during the lockdown I couldn't get bored because of this virtual games which was also a source of help for me even though I sometimes lost to them. The bottom line is: I wasn't bored during the lockdown.

Well, there are those that isn't bored, there are those that is bored. Some are continuing their jobs at their homes while others are not doing something in their houses. Either way, online betting can be a good thing though the bets we can do are limited since sports are cancelled or postponed. Some learned to bet on esports.

With sports events all cancelled from past 3 months definitely it has taken a big hit since many of us here are sports enthusiast and would be following some or the other sports and some out of them would be event betting on them. Online is going to be or just becoming the new normal now since things still does not look good in many countries as cases are completely rising than the previous days.

Some are still scared to go to casinos but now that casinos are opened, there are still a lot of people that go there. I don't have any information about our land-based casinos but POGOs are been working for a while now. Still, I do agree that online betting is far better and safer right now. I am not that addicted to go to a land-based casinos just to gamble.

New ways needs to be adopted since life is more important than anything, if the sports organization declared that they are ready to reopen the games they need to complies with how the health organizations from their respective countries regulations. Though more people are concerned with their own health and they are following the government with how to prevent being infected by this unseen virus.

Online gambling sites acquired people who are still engaging to this activities, gamblers always find ways to gamble.

Land based casino is still safe for as long as all of  there staff undergo on COVID-19 test and implement a tight security on entrance so that all people with symptoms will be screen. Most the casino games does not required a close contact and social distancing can be easily to maintain and follow.

The only problem on opening this kind of business industry was casino are tempting people to gamble instead of using the money for buying personal in times of pandemic. I know that business is business but we should think also others especially if we have the capacity to help instead of wasting money on gambling.

From my point of view, people who started to gamble in casinos in the middle of the pandemic don't really care about the virus because most people assume that the virus is just an exaggeration, that is why they continue to go to public places even there are lockdowns. Online casinos or crypto casinos is really the safest way to play because you can avoid making physical contact and social distancing, so we should really stay inside our homes for our family safety.

Still, I don't think they can do that since as far as I know casinos are closed during the pandemic. I don't think they wouldn't be able to gamble at casinos while it is closed. Another thing is that most of the officials here are so strict. They would be able to gamble online but we can't say that they are ignorant with the pandemic, they can do it, they can afford it, let them. We have our own ways of entertaining ourselves. It is their choice.

No data to backup your augment; the effect are not reduced as you have said because their is a possibility of the spread to skyrocket after a month or so into the game. Let us watch what happens after months from now. Sport games won't be fun as before from view centers, this has been my favorite place but with this covid-19 things will get bore as it has been before the ease of the lockdown. Let us watch the result from these leagues that have opened before speculation. Hope to see a smooth sport games again without a second wave of covid-19.

There is UFC sports that you can bet and it's happening almost every week. You can pour out all your gambling funds there the probably 3 fights of it.  Sports is not just Football.

But not all love to see physical action,i mean hurting each other instead they love watching real sports in which showing their skills.
so they choose not to bet in this kind of sports or action.

The lockdown keeps us bored and that I just keep watching youtube and even the old MMA fights just to review which fighter can win in the next match. Tomorrow there will be a match between Nunez and Spencer and more under card.

Now there are some sports that held but without live audiences ,but still we have option to bet.

gambling here are active too but they keep it a secret because its still against on the rules and they can get on serious trouble if they got discovered gambling during pandemic season . its a double risk for gamblers , if im with them i will just stay at home and play online gambling instead . @kong hey , its true  . many people thinks that corona is fake and media are only hyping it  but how can they explain the death tolls ?  do they mean those people are fake too and those people really died for other diseases ?

New Normal Betting?
Applies IRL, I think?
Really can't imagine playing poker on a very long table just to have enough distance on each player, can't also imagine how the dealer would react on this. Though they might use a screen projector just to see the cards being shown up on the table. LoL.

Taiwan did this. They are one of the countries that have controlled the spread of coronavirus yet they apply this new normal.

wow, a strange change...
I can't imagine how difficult it is for dealers to get used to this condition. actually, there are other options without having to provide a long table to the players ie the players must use the doctor's PPE shirt for safer and a room full of hand sanitizers.

In order to hurt each other, high skill is also required  I am not a fan of such competitions, but fact is a fact.
As for competitions without a live audience, this undoubtedly reduces the "aura", but otherwise the opportunities for both fans and athletes are the same.

And that could be annoying IMO...
Besides it wasn't 100% guaranteed that PPEs are good to prevent the virus from getting in. And even with sanitizers and alcohols it wouldn't be much of help if there's a person who got it.
Just imagine if you're on a gloves the cards might fall out and might show itself before you know it LoL. Especially if you're the dealer.

Well, I don't think if gloves are needed for table casinos. They are not handling patients that have positive of the COVID virus.
The protective mask is already enough or the shielding mask, --sanitizing hands are also enough to kill viruses if there is. If someone has a virus on the casino, it is transmitted through mouth or sneezing. That is the reason why we cover our mouth and nose through the mask. New normal is good enough to resume gambling businesses that did not have physical contact.

Indeed, there is a tool that can distribute cards under control by the dealer.
