My concern of security when using casino houses.

[Cryptomultiplier]

I wouldn't say am much of a gambler the slightest bit, for so many reasons, but what stands as a peak reason for my concern is that of security.
All thanks to the advent of online casinos which gained massive popularity during the covid-19 era. Though the concern for security online as per being hacked or being a victim of phishing sites, looms. It is agreeably more fun visiting a live casino center with physically present spin machines.
Most of the places in my locale where these games are played seem to be a hub for miscreants looking for likely victims and observing the cash flow of individuals using these spin machines. It is not too long ago we learnt of the stabbing that happened in front of a las vegas casino and the recount of the perpetrator.

In a yuletide season as this, it is always advised to be cautious of locations one frequents, especially places where we have these spin machines; it is to save cash by preventing losing too much in the games and from unplanned mishap that might befall one when in the midst of such a surrounding.

Ever had such concerns for security when visiting live casino centers?  or do other reasons prevent you from using these live casino centers? (please state it).

I'm no rich guy, but I do visit casinos every now and then to unwind and get a quick break from the stresses of life. Lately however I find myself preferring online casinos more than the live ones, but that is because I am a little lazy. What takes me a 10 min. walk towards the casino could've been used to spend money and possibly win and enjoy games on an online casino. Plus some Online houses offer some sort of live dealings which alleviates the awkward feeling of having to bet with a bot. Although of course the fear of getting hacked and be drained of all my winnings, or even my funds looms over me. It never really goes away. Guess that's part of betting. There's a plethora of risks you should be willing to take whether it be online or live casino gambling.

Casino security directly depends on how guarded the casino is, they usually place several people to secure the place so that nothing dangerous happens unless the casino is illegal and does not get permission from the local government.
In my place, there are no live casinos that can be visited, but in big cities, there are live gambling places that are operating but are illegal.
They are nowadays preferring online casinos because just lying in bed can open casino sites easily. But hacking online sites will be a problem for every user like phishing sites, malware, etc.
Live or Online Casino has their own advantages and disadvantages and depends on the needs.

Casinos were one of the first branches of business to reopen. While it is very difficult to guarantee the right distance there. However, a casino is quite large. I think we can say goodbye to covid after all, if you look at how little it is in the news. Casinos have also been affected by covid, but I think they were able to build up a nice buffer in the time before Covid. And you can always use a mask if you feel more comfortable that way.

Totally out of topic reply.

Back on the topic in regarding with security then it would really be just normal that there are things which cant really be prevented nor be stopped specially on these kind or type of incidents.
If there were stabbing issues or incident then it is really that a flaw into their security on why they do let in a certain person who does really have that belonging but reading
up on the article it is really said to be having that kitchen knife, so where he did able to get that?
As a player then you should really be that vigilant most of the time because you dont know on what things would be ending up and there's
no such thing about being safe place, considering that casino does involved losing and winning then expect that there are ones who do have those impulsive
and cant be handles emotions.

I've had friends call me late at night to pick them up after winning a lot of money at casinos.  It's a genuine concern.  People will stake out winners and jump them in parking lots to steal winnings.  Casinos especially seem to have some of the shadiest customer bases of any place I can think of.  They also stay open late at night.  If you've got a ton of cash on you and it's late at night, walking through giant parking lots probably isn't the best idea.  Where I live you can carry a gun so it isn't the worst thing to have to do, but if you're able, having a friend who can pick you up right at the exit is the way to go.

Something that you could really see in movies which do actually happens in real life which is common sense.As long you do have that money and people around you at the casino do able to notice up that big win then
pretty sure that they would really be having those intent specially into those criminals which are really that longing on getting some cash.Basing on what you had said was totally that ideal on where there's something
should pick you up in front of casinos doors or else you cant really be that be so sure when it comes to your safety once you do step out your foot out on casino building.
They wont be held out liable.

The URL link of the news is very different from the post you're trying to discuss. I wonder who'd replied read it.

It's the man who came from the casino who stabbed the people outside of the casino for several reasons. Not the other way around.
The topic for the URL link you included should be those frustrated people who came from casino and causing trouble after, probably after lossing as the news says..

"Barrios started running and looking for groups of people so he could 'let the anger out,'"

Edit: Seems the suspect didn't even have a chance to get inside, but just randomly attack anyone outside the hotel/casino.

I know about that and that's why I never go to these places all by myself. I usually take some friends so that we can have fun and watch each other's backs. It's the same with drinking at night and walking home alone. Drunk people have a habit of doing everything much slower so it takes them more time to find cash in their wallets and this allows others to take a peek inside.
I've heard of people stabbed in my city for no reason or beaten just because they were an easy target, but I've always walked with at least 1 friend and thankfully never been attacked.
Muggers rarely mess with 2 or more people, unless it's 2 drunk women.

This could also happen inside the casinos and the main concern of OP is the security.
Having an option to play online is a good one for our own physical safety but when it comes to online, there’s no guarantee for our safety since anything can happen and so far, most of the top casinos are still doing great and I didn’t see any news about a casino getting hacked. If you care much about your safety, don’t ever hold any crypto on your casino account.

[Accardo]

Staking bets on Casino houses is fun and you've got to see the croupiers in real life and meet up with other people in lieu of building networks online, but staying in a Casino house consisting of drug dealers, button men, drunks etc is dangerous at night. Since such businesses are managed by different underworld families seeking control over territory, unexpected dramas could happen any moment. A target can be attacked there and an unlucky innocent player could get injured too. On the other hand, playing online is fun and calm. It'll boost your calculation on stakes without any mental or environmental distractions caused by noise or side talks. The fear of playing with bots should be considered, yet it doesn't matter if the live dealers operate on provably fair. The deal is to win a game and not if your competitor is human or bot. If you think you can't manage or handle the hassle attached to Casino houses I think the online Casino was built for you.

Ever had such concerns for security when visiting live casino centers?  or do other reasons which prevent you from using these live casino centers?

Security is something to really be concerned about in this period considering the very harsh economic situation that are forcing people who formerly decided that they would never indulge in some activities, to have a change of heart just to survive. These days even individuals who you least suspect can be criminals, turn out to be well dressed criminals. I would advise that for safety reasons if you must visit live casinos, only visit casinos that take their security seriously and do not just let any kind of individual use their service or hang around aimlessly without doing anything.

[btc_angela]

Inside the casino? No, there are no security concerns for me, obviously going out, but if you don't win big then I don't see criminals following you. There are a lot of security inside the casino and it's very hard to enter a deadly weapon because they will have to check you thoroughly before you can enter.

But if you win like the jackpot, for one I know that casinos will not simply left you go and go home, I mean they will give you a room before giving you your winnings because they want you to stay and still play with them.

At least here though, we haven't heard of anyone being held up at gun point outside the casino.

This is an isolated case.

[PX-Z]

This could also happen inside the casinos and the main concern of OP is the security.

At least use a correct example/reference.

Besides casino's security is too tight for such attack weapon to be sneaked inside and cause trouble there.  Unless it's a robbery attack like what had happen to Resorts World Manila.

Either you're ^{(as employee, client, or employeer)} going to a bank, pawn shop, ATM's, casino, or any financial related place. Security concerns should always be top priority.

Well in this case, it was around the vicinity of casinos and that's why as per the subject of the OP his concern about the security.

But in the article, he was able to get away in the beginning because he claim to be a chef. So that is a total lax in security of that casino on how the man was able to bring a knife inside.

So again, that's what the OP is asking us, if we feel safe going inside a casino because this incident can happen, but this is random.

It's like anything in life, you have to have self awareness and always be adjusting to the environment around you. The best protection is to try and work on your own fitness to be able to defend yourself when necessary. You can find horror stories from every type of place in the world, from nurseries, to garden centers to old peoples homes, to hospitals. Admittedly casinos will tend to have a few more drunk people around, however they have some of the most advanced security systems in the world which can deter an average thief who knows they'll be identified pretty easily. It's always a good idea to keep an eye on people who take bad losses because some people handle it very badly and may lash out.

There is nothing mentioned the he successfully brought the weapon inside or get away with the knife inside the casino. The suspect didn't even get a chance to go inside the casino.

He reportedly told a security guard he was attempting to sell his knives so he could get money to return to Guatemala, to which the security guard at the casino allegedly responded: go jump in front of a train,

For casino's security related response check my reply above.

On this aspect virtual casinos are much safer, because you don't expose yourself on the streets and public areas in order to gamble. You can play by the confort and safety of your home. If you hit the jackpot, you don't have to worry about being followed on your way back home by thieves, as you will be already at home!

On the other hand, when you go to land based casinos, you never know who can be behind you. This is the main security concern when playing at physical places. And when gambling is forbidden in your country you also have to worry about the police, besides the thieves, who can be in collusion with the casino itself.

Vices. In some land based casinos, smoking is allowed in the establishment which makes me avoid it. I'm not okay with the smell of their cigarettes and not to mention, second hand smoking is more dangerous. Another thing is life concerns as OP and other users have mentioned; just what if you've won a jackpot? Would you be safe once you got out of the casino? These are 'indirect' security issues but possibilities for sure would worry a player who's not used of playing on such establishments. This is also why I prefer playing online. Scam casinos could be avoided if you will be quite doing a research about the platform you are engaging yourself with. You may check for their reputation in the industry, ask for feedbacks from its players, and compare its offers to check if it is not unrealistic or if something is worrisome.

[livingfree]

What I like in online is that it is saving you a lot of time from travel and you're just in your home being comfortable to gamble.

I think I'm already good with that and won't be urged to visit local casinos in my own decision. But if time permits and I have to go there, I'll be going but I know my limitations and it won't be broken.

Because in casinos locally, you'll be urged more especially when you're in a crowd and people cheering you up that you should spin some more, bet for more and you'll obliged with the urge of your peers.

[Mate2237]

The security of casino is not only online but also offline. To some extent I prefer online casinos sites more than online casinos halls. Physical things (photos, laptops, cash hearpod etc) lost in offline casino halls more than online casinos sites. Just that the amount that got frozen and some scam sites taken from gamblers is big than the offline casinos.

In some times, police would just worked in and arrest innocent people in the offline casino hall probably because of a suspect. Online casinos can be played at the comfort of your home/room.
