Gambling in Wartime ⚽ 🏈 🏀 🎾 🎰📈🚀💥

[ChiBitCTy]

hello everyone, sorry to take up your precious time, I hope you all are always safe from any bad conditions....

according to the title, I want to ask what do you think will happen if this war gets hotter and widens ^{(Russia and Ukraine war has started)}

do you think ongoing sporting events will be postponed ^{(damn.. I have a lot of betting plans on European leagues)}

I personally don’t think that there will be much of an interruption being that it’s a war in a pretty concentrated area but maybe I’m wrong. I know I read that the Champion’s League finals will now be held in Paris versus being held in Russia. Hopefully there’s not too much disturbance outside of that. Oh and fuck Russia.

Accept it or not, the current war between Russia and Ukraine will have a huge impact on the current events even in gambling. There will be scheduled sports that have to be canceled but it doesn't mean that the whole community has to stop it because unaffected countries will surely continue their sports event. I hope that this war would stop as soon as possible because it will affect the global economy and it will even affect blockchain technology including sports gambling.

If this war gets wider and many countries participates (but let's hope and let's pray that it won't happen) I really think all the matches and games that participated in war will be stopped or cancelled. They will focus on fighting or defending their countries rather than competing with sports. So there will be a huge impact to sports and competitions during wartime.

Indeed. No one could ever tell when will this war would stop and if such would just last briefly, on a concentrated area or become worse. But on top of that, I don’t think that sports and competitions will be given attention during the times over the efforts in securing public safety and stopping this war. That being said, it would be the best to not risk to bet on events that could potentially be disrupted or whatnots.

War is a set back. You don't expect football or sports activities to continue in the region that security of life and property is not safe. Obviously leagues in Russia and Ukraine will stop because of this war and Russian players can get sanctions too. Putin is being inconsiderate to look at the consequences of the war and I read some European president have been speaking to him on phone but he is yet to drop the war.

[molsewid]

The current war is very limited to Ukraine territory so most the games will not be affected in case the tension extends. During world war 1 & 2, they tried to move the venue on other place then cancel later since the war is spread in Europe so if they try to continue sports during ww1 -2 then there's a high chance sports will continue to show the world that life will goes on despite the darkest hour. Cancellation of sports will just that Russia is successful in destroying in EU.

We'll hope that the war will not widen and hopefully stop though we're not the affected areas, however,  looking at the civilians being affected in this war is heartbreaking. Many people are worried about what could be the possible conflicts this war may go beyond and hopefully would not going to result in WW3, we all don't want it. Currently, I couldn't think about what should I do in my betting activities because I would rather focus on saving money to you know prep for whatever consequences may happen when this war widens. Though I am sure the betting and gambling industry in areas that are not directly affected by the war will continue operating.

 Some countries are called National Unity Security Council, I saw also participated in the war (Russia, etc) I thought this would end soon, and that's all.
sport, both regional and international events is a pleasure. And in general this should not be a nuisance.
Have you ever thought that these 2 activities occur in one place/country? For example, wars occur at the border.
while for visits and tourists it is at the opposite door which is quite safe for entry and gathering point? Moreover, this sport will still exist and can be held at any time.
war makes the economic sector weak and even tends to fall very briefly and is affected by the issues / events that are reported.

it's better to just transfer the host for a while, the performance can be discussed properly and mutually agreed.
you can do virtual voting so you can vote comfortably in your chair and in your home

do you think ongoing sporting events will be postponed ^{(damn.. I have a lot of betting plans on European leagues)}

For some sporting activities as a whole, it may not be too much impactful. However, if it is still related to the two countries, both club, and location, then, of course, there will be problems.
Not only football but also several other sports were also affected by the war.
We also still don't know when this war will end, will it end soon or will it continue to get worse (we all want the war to end soon).

I have read news related to sporting events that relate to those two countries here. Some are suspended.

I'm not sure what you mean by "hotter and widens". Putin is doing this to Ukraine, because it's one of the only countries left that Russia can bully inside Europe. If Putin attacked any country in NATO then it will start world war 3 and there will be little left of the world afterwards. He is a dying old man with no future to look forward to, so he will happily kill many people and feel no remorse. However, this is unlikely to reach that point, because Russia is looking more and more foolish by the day. The rest of Europe is getting on with business and life, while Russians are murdering people for no reason at all except they don't want to be best friends with Russia any more. Besides any sports events being cancelled in Russia, all events are likely to carry on regardless.

do you think ongoing sporting events will be postponed ^{(damn.. I have a lot of betting plans on European leagues)}

There's no need to think if yes or no because it will obviously be stopped. Safety first, of course. Any sports event or any kind of events near the affected place (Russia and Ukraine, maybe Belarus too) will be postponed in regards of the conflict and war. Never read any news yet but this is sure for the citizens safety.

[mindrust]

do you think ongoing sporting events will be postponed ^{(damn.. I have a lot of betting plans on European leagues)}

Depends on how long this current situation will last. If Ukraine makes a deal with Russia before everything goes to shit completely, nothing will be postponed probably. The other possibility is NATO stepping up and killing every Russian soldier in Ukraine till the threat is eliminated but obviously that's not going to happen. I hope things get resolved before it is too late because this Russian invasion might trigger a damn world war.

[Oceat]

There's always a high possibility because war is not a joke mate..i mean it's the very worst situation than covid19. so it's expected that all of the events will be postponed immediately especially those countries that really affected of tension between Russia and Ukraine.

It's not safe and not the right time to gamble. And for sure on these situation they're really cares about their lives not for money..

There's no need to think if it will continue or not because when there is trouble around how could someone just don't care especially in their city or country? The possibility is always to postpone the game or perhaps choose another place to continue although I don't believe that will be their choice since it's not a good idea to play or gamble while your city has been destroyed.

The important part is the safety of their citizens so they must evacuate first those who don't want to get involve in the war.

[uneng]

Lol, I thought this thread was going to ask if people would bet on war events, results and statistics. Just imagine how crazy it would be.

Regards already scheduled sports events I think the only thing that can change is the location where they will be settled, like in the case Poland, Sweden and Czech Republic have already refused to play world cup qualifiers in russian territory. Moreover, nations in conflict can't play among themselves due to a resolution of the competition's organizers, so Ukraine and Russia had to be separated for the playoffs.

But I would like to know what will happen if both qualify for world cup, encountering each other at some point of the competition ahead. Maybe quarter finals or something like that...

[Cookdata]

I thought I saw something about Russia being removed as the Champions League final host.

There are likely going to be disruptions if the league you are betting on is mostly located in Europe.

Especially with crypto sportsbooks, I wouldn't risk it and bet on an event that could be potentially disrupted/postponed. They could hold your funds for ages and deny wins, etc., which is certainly not ideal.

It wasn't just the champions league that was removed, their league has also been suspended for 30 days until everything becomes clear.
I will be most disappointed if human life becomes a mockery for bets, that's not cool to even discuss or talk about, it is Russia and Ukraine today, you don't know what sideline yours may turn out and if it goes south, it will affect everyone just like corona time.

For sure those affected countries will never participate in any sports event, because of the current conflict between those two countries. They will not prioritize such thing because their lives is more important. Instead of thinking such things, we should pray that this war should be stop soon, for those innocent lives not get caught to the conflict between country leaders.

just Ukrainian players that are playing both national league and international leagues are enough to put a hold on some games, Europe dominates most football matches we watch over here.

Keeping everything a side – the current situation remind me of an era of Genghis Khan who felt pride in building tower of skill. No one knows how many dreadful deaths we have to see in the days to come.  May we all witness the dawn of peace to bless all the sufferers of the world. Wartime brings destruction and no one in war zone has mind in place for gambling.

I do not think that this military operation can spread to other countries.  Most likely it will end with a change of political regime and power in Ukraine and nothing more.

 But with regard to Russia, calls are already being made not to hold any international competitions on the territory of Russia.  
Moreover, the annual Eurovision Song Contest also ruled out Russia's participation.

What an crazy reasoning ...lolx
It would have been fun if the war wasn't real, maybe computerised. But the reality is that the war is real and humanity is frowning against it.

Once it is war, every aspect of the economy would be affected including gambling. As you can see btc crashed and people are fleeing, even gamblers would not have a stable mind to gamble. And the games you are gambling on may end up not been played for a long time.

making war a bet is inhumane. I have a Russian friend on Facebook who was detained because the demonstration led Putin to stop attacking Ukraine, no one likes this war, including Russian citizens.

when covid is at its peak, we have all been waiting for a long time for all sporting events in the world to start again, and I don't want the war between these two countries to delay sports events again. surely this condition can end quickly and people do not hesitate to gamble.

I would not gamble at all if the situation is like this forever.

To OP, I guess my answer is if there are games I would gamble, so let's see if the sporting event will continue as, during the war, some countries are being affected, its allied countries might support the attacked country and will probably shut down competition temporarily, I mean they'll prioritize this serious matter over sporting events.
