What Becomes of Gambling if Sport book is taken away.

[Wiwo]

I don't know is this have been discussed before here on the gambling discussion board or not, but let see how our independent opinion on this question will be and what to anticipate should Incase we find ourselves at that stage in time.

Just as the title stated, what do you think will becomes of gambling enirly if we wake up one morning to the news of global banning of football,  or a country ban it citizens from participating in football both as a game and also a sport.

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

[Rruchi man]

Just as the title stated, what do you think will becomes of gambling enirly if we wake up one morning to the news of global banning of football,  or a country ban it citizens from participating in football both as a game and also a sport.

There will always be alternatives.

It is a certainty, that the news will surely discourage some gamblers, but I believe that a larger number of gamblers in this category will seek alternatives, other games that they can gamble on.

Gambling has become a part of some people's life, and unless gambling is entirely stopped, some gamblers will never stop.

Just as the title stated, what do you think will becomes of gambling enirly if we wake up one morning to the news of global banning of football,  or a country ban it citizens from participating in football both as a game and also a sport.

Football is not the only sport we have in the world. While it may be popular in one country, it may not be in another. In a country like India, Cricket is like a national sport. You will have the majority of sports book talk about cricket. We also have places where horse racing is also more popular than football.

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

Yes, of this happens in a country where football is their national sports. No if it happens in country where they have other sports more popular than football.

[Ruttoshi]

Football is a well known sport with huge fans all over the world, but we should also take note that there are other sports too in which we can bet on. Like basketball, and many more. So I will switch to basketball or I will be gambling more on casino games.

Casino games are still cool with high profit compared to sports bet, and that will save the day for gamblers, because I could remember that I never started gambling with sports. It was the love that I have for football, that made me to start betting on sport. This is because it make my predictions easier due to follow-up on clubs that you want to stake your bet on.

Why will casino or other gambling site lose their popularity? It is not possible. All countries can not just come one day and decide to ban gambling. That is not possible. There are some countries that ban gambling and there are some countries that do not ban gambling but gambling sites are becoming popular.

[Helena Yu]

Lottery? events prediction? I think at least we will see at least two of them.

Even some countries ban gambling, but they didn't ban lottery, which mean lottery is more acceptable.

There's always new event in every year and the prediction isn't limited to specific category. It could be predicting the upcoming president, predicting when BTC price will cross $100K, etc.

People won't quit gambling even the country ban it, just like people gamble using VPN when they live in a restricted countries.

Of course the popularity of casinos will decline but I think only in the short/temporary period.
Gamblers will definitely switch to other types of sports or play other games such as slots, poker, house games, etc.
The desire to gamble will not be extinguished even if someone, for example, only bets on football before.

I’m sure that casino industry will be affected but there’s a lot of sports available for gamblers to bet on. Football is indeed the biggest sports that contributes bet on sportsbook industry but gamblers will always find a way to gamble despite their favorite sports is already ban.

Besides, most of online casino has slot games and live games which generates profit that can compensate on the loss of football on sportsbook. It’s a big deal for the fans but gambler will surely find a way to entertain themselves on casino.

[YOSHIE]

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

I don't think that will happen, as we know, football is a popular sport among all groups, whether children, adults and adults, including officials, the mafia, farmers, To all corners of the world, football has become a favorite for all people, I think it is very impossible if there is a ban and all kinds of things that make football prohibited.

Talking about sports casinos, especially football, if there is a confiscation or ban on such gambling, it seems that the casino would be unreasonable to implement other based betting features, I think one obstacle to sports gambling is a hundred ways for casinos to make this type of sports betting, I think there are many ways that casinos can do to develop the best gambling in their casinos, it doesn't have to be football.

[Wiwo]

Why will casino or other gambling site lose their popularity? It is not possible. All countries can not just come one day and decide to ban gambling. That is not possible.

I think you should have a reread again to understand that country part of the ops because what I meant is not what you understood it to be and making your point not to give me the real message I expected from the reply,  well what the thread is aimed at in a simple terms is how the influence of sport bets in the gambling industry,  and how sportbets made casinos to become more popular and what are the possibilities let assuming that sports such as football tournaments are ban?

I know this can never happen that the whole world will ban football,  but also know that there is a possibility that some countries could ban football depending on the style of their leadership.

[cabron]

If it's really going to be banned and people can't do something about it people will move on. There are more sports to bet on, baseball used to be the most popular as far as I know. But every country has a sport they love watching, soccer is more popular in other countries.

Cricket still is popular in UK and India as well so the casino will still be moving on to those games and wagers will probably have larger amounts to bet on these games due to Football not being available anymore.

[bakasabo]

Gamblers are very creative people. They will always find a solution if casinos ban sports betting, or a specific sport will be banned for placing bets. As an alternative they can use p2p betting. I dont think that it will greatly impact on the funds turnover in betting industry. It will be not convenient to place a a bet, the odds will be the same, but people will increase minimum bet amount. And of course illegal betting will work with double effort.

You mean what will happen to casinos and gambling generally if football is banned all over the world? People will move to other sport. Or what if all sports are also banned?  No bad effect will it have on casinos than people that only prefer sport may because of it visit casinos instead as they are bored. They will look for alternatives. More people will visit casinos than before because casinos ar one of the alternatives.

[Odohu]

Sports book is just one aspect of gambling that is not based entirely on luck unlike the luck based games like dice, slots and others. Sports book seems to be more popular in some demographics whereas the traditional casinos have other options. If Sports books is removed from casinos, there is no doubt that it will affect the gambling business in no mean way because a great proportion of bettors actually play sports book.
Anyways, I don't think there would be any need to remove it from gambling. I have not read any huge negative impact it has on the business so why will it be removed?

[target]

Football is not the only sport that people bet on. The NBA fans will still be betting on which team and those Soccer fans will still be playing on casinos, these changes will only affect those football businesses and fans.

But you know football is not going away right?  Are you talking about that brain injury where the cause is the football concussions?
Football has already been part of the tradition for a long time, if there is a need for changes I guess only the rules not banning the sport.

My take here is that, a country can ban gambling to some degree but when it comes to sports like football, I don't think they will totally ban it for good. Somehow, sports can unite people and other good things can come out of it. So this hypothetical scenario for me won't happen.

Sure, some countries can ban gambling or sportsbetting, but not the sports itself. And besides, people will just find another sports to watch out for. Do remember, there is VPN that anyone can explore when it comes to betting, that is, if there are gambling sites that are being banned on your country.

[Issa56]

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

Am sure other people will be gambling on other sports, but if football can be ban in my country and their is no other way which I can access it, then am going to stop gambling till football is unbanned. One of the most popular sport in my country is football, so I only watch football and gamble on football alone,  if football is banned in my country, and am to gamble on other sports, I will be gambling blindly because I don’t have any knowledge about those sports, it’s just like wasting of money to me. If am in a situation that football is banned, then I will get something else to keep me busy and I will stop gambling.

[ralle14]

If sportsbooks are stopped in a certain country then another sportsbook with minimal geo-restrictions will try to capitalize on that change if that happens because gamblers will always try to find something similar and even go the extra mile if they can find a way to bet on football matches once more.

Gambling will probably lose its popularity within the country, but I think the casinos will always look for a solution to bring it back (or even compromise) because they don't want to lose out on a big chunk of profits.

[crwth]

Well, we all know it's never going to happen but theoretically speaking, it's going to be a weird game and a lot of people might have to decide what they are going to do with the games being played. I think the majority of the people who gamble in sports are to get the wins and multiply their money, so that's just how it is.

I don't think it's going to lose popularity immediately but it can decrease the number of people watching bit by bit and then realize "why are we banning it? or limiting the bets" lol

[un_rank]

Gambling predates football and sports in general, so I would expect gambling to survive a hypothetical ban on sport activities and gamblers will diversify their interests.
Would it lose some popularity? Yes, some users spend as much time gambling as they do because of their interest in sports and love for speculating on it.

[GxSTxV]

There are two possibilities that could happen if sports were banned in the world, but first I would like to share my thoughts about how the population and the whole sport, especially football fans would react to that, nobody or let’s say more than half of the population would start manifesting against these rules, companies, factories and businesses will all go bankrupt as they can’t produce, market or have jobs anymore, this will result to a huge mess all over the world and create a global war between citizens and governments.

Now the first possibility if this happens, the casinos and gamblers would start switching into virtual games, esports and find better successful alternatives, the casinos here would benefit more than any other industry since it will create a new hype around the world.

Second possibility, is that the gambling industry will go down badly and lose many customers until most of the casinos go bankrupt as well and won’t afford the marketing and expenses to promote their new games, as sportbooks are most generating source for them.

[Yatsan]

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

Could be lessen but not totally losing their players. Lessen in terms of football fans who are into sportsbetting but as we all know, not all people are only placing bets on football games but also with other sports such as Basketball, boxing, and UFC fights. Is there such person who is into sports but with football alone? There could be but for sure there are more people who are into multiple sports. One reason is gambling itself. Not all gamblers are big fans of sports, there are even bettors who are just making their bets thru signals from communities. Also, there is more likely a bigger number on gamblers who are into matches inside and outside football, wherein odds are good. These variations could disintegrate the idea that sportsbetting will be falling just because football, in this case, would be restricted.

Same idea goes with other gambling games; poker, baccarat, dice games, slots, roulettes, and more wherein gamblers could freely move to one after another. Preference exist but on the same context it is broad and not close ended, however, gambling is.

[Agbe]

 Op I have not heard of any country that ban football sport and I don't think there is any. The country can ban gambling but not football and if the country has sports activities then gambling must go on secretly. Gambling is one thing that like bitcoin which can't be ban totally. The more you ban the more people involved in it. Even the government makes arrest people will still involved themselves to do it. And as for me oh, this your question is even impossible unless other casinos and not sport. Although when the government ban gambling in the country, it will affect the sport bookies and the matter the government ban gambling online, gamblers would look for a way to play gamble. Even the reduction of the population is not guaranteed because the gamblers would use either VPN or another way to gamble at homes. And will go to nearby country to satisfy themselves..

Maybe a little.The real money machine to any casino are the slot machines,if you check the sections of many well established casinos,the chats of these casinos most people will share their bet slip regarding their slot machines and a little of such bets will be for sport betting.Of course the majority of the gamblers like to know instantly if they have won big or not and very few,the conservative gamblers,the ones who are raised with sport betting are the ones who are capable enough of having patience,nowadays the gamblers just like is very dynamic so are they and they want to win as big as possible and as fast as possible,something achievable only from slot machines.Also high level management of many such casinos accept the fact that their biggest money revenue generator are the slot machines,so not much would change if sport betting goes away.

Absolutely, slots are the cash cows of casinos, dominating over sports betting for many. They offer instant gratification with their fun sounds and lights, drawing those eager for quick wins. While traditional sports bettors play the long game, today's dynamic gambler seeks the rapid rewards slots promise. Casinos know where the gold lies, slots are their revenue kings.

[taufik123]

What kind of government should ban the sport of football,
But yes if that does happen there are still many other sports alternatives that can be a means for gambling or betting.

Gambling is not only focus on football games, there are many more exciting sports matches,
such as baseball, basketball, volleyball, horse racing and many other sports, so there is nothing to worry about.

And also there are many more games available, even I can't play all of them.
Online Casinos always have their latest games and sportsbooks, it will always spoil casino users.

For example, you can see in Blackjack.fun,
there are many sports options for you to bet on, and it will always be updated.

The problem we can have is the means in which the government can adopt to ban them, as some are supporting for the ban you will also see part of the governments officials against such moves because they know and have an idea on what the government is generating weekly and on a monthly basis from some of these gambling organizations, aside that, we have our freedom to been entertained and they cant make this a decision for everyone to take by force when we are in an era of freedom of speech because people will fight against such, they should expect it not to be scrapped because without going to the public, people can still gambles in their closet.

[alani123]

Even in areas where there is no representation of any particular sport on the local level to get people interested, people find stuff to bet on.

For instance in Asia people often bet on matches they make up themselves like fights of animals. As weird as it sounds... People find something to gamble on regardless of conditions. The thing isn't about banning something but rather enforcing it.

For instance, if I gamble on a sports book that is not licensed in my country, it is theoretically banned. But there is no penalty for me neither the sports book. So it happens quite a lot. Would a government have the funds to be so authoritarian to ban football? Some authoritarian regimes maybe, but it would be very hard to ban a sport that has so many fans entirely.

[Frankolala]

There will still be a way to gamble. Scratch and win is also another gambling game that one can use to gamble. If no casinos and gambling is banned in a country, I believe that country would not ban this, because they see it as try your luck. Since you can get a scratch and win tickets in shopping malls and shops. Lottery is also an option.

However, I think this will be impossible for government to ban sportbet, because football is a sport that everyone likes and have a body. People's career will be jeopardize and I don't think any government will do this when they see the negative side of it and how it will affect the citizens and the world at large. Many jobs would be lost.

Remember way back during the prime of the COVID-19 pandemic? There are no sports activities at all, as in total zero.

What happened to gambling? It has even become more attractive to most people that even those who are not into gambling get in to kill boredom until they become regular gamblers. During the COVID-19 pandemic, the gambling industry is one of the most performing industries in the whole world and the number of online gamblers is insanely growing in numbers even as we speak.

Gambling can lived even without sports betting. Not all gamblers are fans of sports betting.

[borovichok]

If sports bookies are banned then a lot of people will stop gambling. Majority of gamblers are into sports betting and banning sports betting means that majority of the gamblers will be affected. Sports betting is the only betting that involves real humans and so it has attracted more sports enthusiast. When you have interest in a particular sport, the next thought is how to make money from the sport by betting on the sport since you have reserved knowledge of the sport. The only reason why I picked interest in football betting is because I watch football. 

In my mind's eye, I have visualized the number of persons who are seen in a betting shop daily placing games on different sports. In some neighborhood, casinos are not popular compared to sports betting and so imagine what will become of sports bookies of it is banned. Such bookies will lose income drastically.

[darkangel11]

I'd say impossible to achieve because governments will never work together globally, so if it's banned in your country it's going to thrive in another. I just don't see countries that are supposed to be freedom oriented, like the US, banning bookies. As long as there's sports there will be sports gambling, even if it's illegal. Therefore, this is pure speculation, but lets say this happens...
IMO a lot of sports gamblers will move to another game. Sports fans will start playing cards, maybe playing video games that offer gambling like when you open CS crates with keys.
Gambling will not die, I'm sure of it, it will only change its form.

[Wexnident]

Erm yea, there's always going to be some illegal section that's going to host it back up so I don't think it's much of an issue. They may even forego KYC altogether since countries are already stating them as illegal, freeing them up from responsibilities to the country lol. If they ever really want to ban or remove gambling in a particular sport, they have to remove that specific sport. Otherwise, illegal methods would simply rise up.

But yea, if we were to consider the status of current casinos with bookies then they'd definitely lose a chunk of their users. Numbers are kind of impossible to describe since I don't have the specific stats about it but it would probably be at least 10%, definitely more if not just football was banned but sports gambling entirely.

The closest to this kind of scenario was during the COVID-19 pandemic when sporting events were suspended. But it didn't take too much time for sports events to resume without fans. Sports is a multi-trillion-dollar industry that contributes greatly to the income of so many countries and doubt if will ever be halted globally. However, if such an event happens bettors will have to look for other games that casinos offer. Casinos will lose a large chunk of customers because sports bets are very popular. It will lead to a reduction of revenue in the gambling sector because some bettors might quit gambling because they don't have an interest in slots since it doesn't entertain them.

[BABY SHOES]

This is unlikely to happen how a country that has no more revenue from any sport this might be a bit crazy for sports fans.

OK referring to the title of this thread, I think gambling will not lose its popularity as many people will bet on other games as there are now many types of games even though the Sportsbook has been seized as per the scenario.

Maybe football fans won't bet anymore, maybe they switch to other games for gambling pleasure? After all, sports betting is still on par with other gambling, although the majority of us know that betting in the sportsbook is a lot.

[Antotena]

Just as the title stated, what do you think will becomes of gambling enirly if we wake up one morning to the news of global banning of football,  or a country ban it citizens from participating in football both as a game and also a sport.

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

I think the next line of sport people enjoy after football is Basketball. It's one of the best and entertaining games and in fact gamblers win it more than football as it's more easy to predict Basketball that football, so I think people will settle for Basketball as alternative. If not that UfC is not played frequently like Football since it doesn't have a league, I would have said have of the world love boxing matches but they are not frequent played like other sports but I think people will have more options.

On the opinion of banning football, any country that involves in banning football will see may men depressed and will lead to a lot of crisis. Football apart from gambling is what a lot of people enjoy to watch, it entertain them and kills boredom, it help them to relax and also help them enjoy weekends and that is the only thing many men love, it will be a huge mistake if the government ban football matches.

It's a big loss of the football community, the fans, the players and big business behind it. While people on gambling will just move on about it, although it has impact but not as big as the loss of the football community. Gamblers will just try the same things on other sports where to bet, just like the old days of a typical gamblers and typical gambling games.

[Natsuu]

A global ban on football or restrictions on participation could definitely shake up the gambling scene especially sports betting and casinos heavily into football betting. Without those matches to bet on, sportsbooks might see a drop in revenue and lose some popularity. But hey the gambling world's pretty diverse like there are tons of other games and activities out there. While losing football betting would sting, online casinos, poker and virtual sports could help fill the gap. So yeah it'd be a hit but the industry's got tricks up its sleeve to weather the storm

It depends on the country we are talking about, there are some countries in which soccer is so popular that it is basically a religion there.

What do you think it could happen in a country in which the main religion was banned overnight? I would expect nothing less than riots and complete chaos happening overnight, with the current government being overthrown in a matter of days, and the new government restoring order by making soccer legal again and even investing money in it to appease their citizens.

Nah, I think they will still be popular with slot games or any other card games for that matter. And I think I will disagree with you, it could be that there are many slot games players, roulette or baccarat or black jack > sport bettors. I could be wrong though, but sports bettors is a niche, not everyone can be a sports bettors, but any newbies can start with playing slot machines as there are no rules, you just have to deposit some crypto and spin that's it. With that, the casinos are going to thrive and it will still be a billion dollar business at the end of the day.

[Nrcewker]

Yes definitely, football is the most popular game in the world. So if football is banned, then many players who place regularly bets on football matches will stop gambling. If this is done, then the gambling casinos will definitely face a huge loss from it. Their revenue will be decreased, and they have to offer other marketing strategies in order to make the gamblers stay and bet on other games. But it’s really hard to ban a game like football in reality.

[pinggoki]

I don't think it will, the number of people that are betting and a sports fan isn't a lot anyway, there's still more people that are just a fan and would want to just watch, the gambling industry would definitely suffer but it's not worth a lot and they'd probably regain their losses as there's no sportsbetting anymore, people that have been addicted to betting would find other ways to gamble, they're going to need that fix really soon and I don't think that they're going to stop just because betting's gone, they would find other ways to gamble and the gambling industry would be back on its feet again, although there's a small percentage that would be really done with gambling but that's losses in business for you.

Just one sport getting ban would not change the interested of the gamblers to gamble. If there's no more football games, there are still a lot of games where we can bet, we can name it as basketball, volleyball, and even billiards. Man, this world would be boring without gambling, so it will never affect the sportsbook or any gambling entity as people will still gambling.

If you want to see a massive disruption then the government has to ban gambling.

[Makus]

There are lots of casino out there that are not after sport betting, though sport betting a a large number of gamblers on it, because they think making your own analysis and predictions will bring about an easy win. So definitely gamble entirely will loss some of its gamblers while some of the gambler will definitely switch over to casinos and other gambling other than football/sport betting because a gambler will alway remain a gambler useless he decides to fully quit.

[entertheabyss]

I don't think it will, the number of people that are betting and a sports fan isn't a lot anyway, there's still more people that are just a fan and would want to just watch, the gambling industry would definitely suffer but it's not worth a lot and they'd probably regain their losses as there's no sportsbetting anymore, people that have been addicted to betting would find other ways to gamble, they're going to need that fix really soon and I don't think that they're going to stop just because betting's gone, they would find other ways to gamble and the gambling industry would be back on its feet again, although there's a small percentage that would be really done with gambling but that's losses in business for you.

Betting is among the activities to indulge in but we need to be extremely careful when dealing with the market. Losses are made when the predicted games doesn't pull to the accordance path, moving inverse ways will issued out losses to gamblers but it move directly will bring profits. There's a big difference between been a fan and a gambler. Fan just exists to watch the crucial game and having all the fun needed more like entertainment while gamblers are these set of people that are willing to engaged with every bold moves to gamble.

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

I don't think so. Even though football will be banned in some countries or around the world, I don't think that the popularity of sports betting will come to an end because there are a lot of sports that a player or bettor could choose from, and not all people will have only one favourite sport to bet on. So yeah, I don't think so. Even banning football as a game or sport is impossible.

There are a lot of games a player could bet on, and I don't think that bettors will bet just because the betting app has the sports they want; they bet because they want to, either because they hope to win or because they are just betting for fun or to be entertained, so if, for instance, many sports are being erased or banned in sports betting, I don't think gamblers or bettors will stop to find sports that they can do a bet on.

Sport betting is one of the number most popularly played game and to me is the major gamble plays in almost all casinos. Football is the heart beats of all casinos that attracts lots of costumers and bettors to their site, although even though sport booking is removed from gambling then people has to adjust since changes is constant and we can easily adjust as human and go to another most common games.
But however from history of gambling sport betting which includes; football, basketball, hockey game, tennis and racing has become one of the most popular games preferred by gamblers so, if football is being removed today then gamblers may likely switched to another sports game. Hope this is what mean?

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

I don't see any possibility of sport itself being removed from the earth. Even if one country would ban games like football then all the professional players would just migrate to a different country and play in their leagues. Even now there are countries where the local football teams are quite weak and still, they have a lot of fans of international teams. The English premier league is a great example for that, fans all around the world are watching the games. I would expect the same to continue even if football in your own country is banned. It won't be possible to prevent people from watching football games as long as they have access for the internet. As for gambling, this might be a different story. If all the bookmakers in one country are getting banned then it might be hard for people to place their bets. There will mostly likely be a black market that allows some form of gambling. Unfortunately, it won't be as safe anymore as before and everybody has to decide for themselves if he really wants to bet larger amounts of money in unlicensed casino where there is no legal framework if it comes to issues. Let's hope no country would actually go so far and ban all the sports betting.

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

That would be a bad news for the entire Gamblers and the footballers and fans. but there will surely be another way out. Like horse racing, NBA, colour games, cockfight for physical games, wrestling or boxing. There are many gambling options aside from footballing so in it would not really affect as though. An I don't think football can be ban anytime soon or in the future because football is life and ending football is like ending human happiness.

[SeaCoinCollector.]

If sports betting is taken away, it would definitely affect the gambling industry. They may lose some customers especially those sports enthusiasts. Although, there are other games that people would still play. And for sure gambling industry will finds new ways to entertain or make new offers to keep people to be still interested to play, and gambling would likely continue in some form.

I know very well that there are other sports like basketball, volleyball, tennis, rugby and so on. The works will definitely adjust, but the game we love do much will be actively missed. I don't ever wish to wake up to such a reality. It will affect not only the casinos, it will also affect serious individual businesses like football journalism, coverages and so on. Back here in my country, no viewing center ever gets patronage from showing basketball matches or other forms of sports, the moment the fixtures are football, you'll see people from all works of life trooping in to satisfy themselves with 90 mins of purest excitement and social connection with fellow viewers.

Football have really impacted our lives positively, and its no doubt the most enjoyed, and the most popular sports ever. Like I said earlier, I don't wish to wake up to that sad news of the extinction of football. Personally, I might lose interest totally in sports.

[bakasabo]

Dont forget, that casinos today offer a large variety of games to play. If sports betting will be banned, there are still plenty of way to gamble. If a specific sports becomes banned and would be unavailable for betting anymore, there are still plenty of sports to watch, play and gamble. Imo gambling industry is so developed, that will find a solution to this issues and will always offer gamblers something in exchange.

I don't think so gambling has a lot of alternative to it, gambling wasn't really just sports betting on football so even if football was banned globally I don't think it is going to stop gambling at all, for sure there might be a small effect for others who bet on football but I'm sure that it will just pass at time goes by and we will move on to it, Football is not just the sports, we have baseball, Basketball, horse race, tennis etc. it will continue for sure even though football is banned.

It would not lose popularity for sure but football fans are not going to be happy about that, and the whole gambling on football is gone as well, that might affect some but if they are gambling I could see them going on other sports to bet, Not to mention that gambling is not just sports betting there are a tons of card games like blackjack, poker, etc. Then we have lotteries out there, dice games can't even count because there were just too many of them.

This is just hypothetical, in reality, I don't think that there was a possibility that Football was going to be banned at all or gonna die, I mean Football was really popular around the world it has a lot of leagues on it, unless no one is playing it already it might be forgotten through the history, but with this fan base it's almost impossible to die or get banned.

Your country rules and law can't be the same with mine, a what is acceptable as a norm might be a grave crime in your own country.

Global ban on football can never happen, because in some country, football is like their culture or gods, for example Brazil, who dares ban football in such a country? Is what if is too much to even fantasies about, not possible.

Or let's pretend it could, what benefit will the banners gain from it? Because there are many benefits that countries and the government make from football alone apart from other sports.

Football doesn't cause damages in any ways, for billions of people, its already a healing practice, something worth living for.

this will surely disappoint many people of course specially gamblers because Sports betting is one place in which gamblers can nurture their favorite sports at the same time they can do betting , supporting their  team and supporting their vices .

but surely after some time? they will change into other gambling of course because gambling is part of their lives and banning sports will not hinder them to gamble completely .

[danherbias07]

If all sports are banned to bet for, then I think that's crazy.
Gambling has been a part of it for ages and if they banned this kind of thing they are just wasting a lot of money because most of the bookies will try to do it illegally.
So what is better? Let them do it where the eyes of the government can see it, or prevent their people from gambling and just let those illegal gambling sites take the profit? Without tax of course because there won't be a license that is needed.
Letting it play out is a win-win situation for the government. They get taxes which they can use for their projects and they get to see who are the people doing it and this avoids money laundering schemes.
2 birds in one stone, so I don't think they will just try to stop it. Just imagining how much crazy money is coming in and out of gambling sites is already a sign that stopping it won't happen at all. There's just a lot of money at stake.

[DaNNy001]

Just as the title stated, what do you think will becomes of gambling enirly if we wake up one morning to the news of global banning of football,  or a country ban it citizens from participating in football both as a game and also a sport.

Football is not the only sport we have in the world. While it may be popular in one country, it may not be in another. In a country like India, Cricket is like a national sport. You will have the majority of sports book talk about cricket. We also have places where horse racing is also more popular than football.

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

Yes, of this happens in a country where football is their national sports. No if it happens in country where they have other sports more popular than football.

I understand your points but I think if it's a global scale then it would definitely reduce the activeness of many casino because football is the one sports that touches almost everywhere if not everywhere even. But people will still adjust because that's the number nature of humans but I believe many countries will be affected but for like countries like where the participation isn't that much then the effect would be also felt that much.

Yea right, it won't affect casinos because majority of them some provide sports betting to their customers, you will only find casino games on most online casinos, but there are betting platforms that rely entirely on sports bet especially football.

Gamblers will always be gamblers  , if one sport is down there are a dozen more to go, even people who hated other sports like Rugby or car racing will have no choice but to start looking into such sports.

Football is one of the most popular sports in the world, it will surely affect many gambling platforms, I believe that football betting has a big place in the world already, and taking it off the table will affect every betting business that ever existed.

Still, it won't stop people from gambling, some gamblers don't even place bets on sports games, they are good with Roulette and Slots games, in the long run, those football fans will find their way to other sports games or casino games.

[piebeyb]

Indirectly, gambling users will switch to other sports because sport is not only football, although I know this is just an illustration of gambling without a sports betting bookie, perhaps many parties will also be harmed, not only sports bookmakers but athletes too, especially since football is a sport. which is most interested in by the whole world because there are many matches available in leagues from several countries, to be honest it would be boring because I am not too interested in gambling on other sports betting let alone playing casino games.

I always lose when gambling in casino games, especially in sports betting which I don't understand, so it will definitely be very lonely and abandoned by gambling and casinos without the sport of football, even though there are many other sports that can be played for betting, but I'm sure everyone would be happier with that. football sports betting because there are so many gamblers who bet all the time for small leagues and big leagues such as the Bundesliga, Laliga, Italian League and even the EPL, which is clear that gambling would be even more boring without the sport of football.

And let's say that would happen, there is a thing called "adjustment".

Bettors will be used to gambling without those sports as time passes by and sooner, they will just do their usual gambling habit without involvement in sports betting since that was all gone. These bettors will still be gamblers and will just simply shift to other gambling types.

Gambling in general isn't possible be lose interest by many. The only way it could happen is if the whole world will ban gambling but that is impossible.

[acroman08]

There is no doubt that casinos will lose gamblers but I doubt they will lose popularity. Gambling is a big industry while sports betting a very popular market it is not the entirety of gambling, there are other types of gambling games than sports betting that gamblers likes/love to play. also, if you hypothetical scenario did happen, pretty sure those sportsbettors will find an alternative to sportbetting.

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

I believe that if they did a survey to find out how many people play at the casino and look for gambling games that depend on luck and how many people like sports betting, I believe that the number of people who play gambling games at the casino that depend on luck would be much greater than the number of people who place sports bets to the point where the difference in this number is absurd, so when people stop placing sports bets due to government bans, this will not affect casinos much, because the number of people who are in sports betting there is a small number of people, to give you an idea of what I'm talking about, this is an article from 2 years ago

As more states legalize the practice, 19% of U.S. adults say they have bet money on sports in the past year

Around one-in-five U.S. adults (19%) say they have personally bet money on sports in some way in the last 12 months, whether with friends or family, in person at a casino or other gambling venue, or online with a betting app, according to a new Pew Research Center survey.[/b][/u]

Men are more likely than women (24% vs. 15%) to say they have bet on sports in some form in the past year, as are adults under the age of 50 when compared with those 50 and older (22% vs. 17%). There are also differences by race and ethnicity: Black (27%) and Hispanic adults (24%) are more likely than White (18%) and Asian American adults (10%) to report doing so.

There are no significant differences in self-reported sports betting by educational attainment or household income level. For example, 18% of college graduates say they have bet on sports in some way in the past year, as have 20% of non-college graduates. Similar shares of adults in upper-income (22%), middle-income (19%) and lower-income households (19%) say they have bet on sports in the past year.

looking at this data from this article we can see that most people choose gambling games that depend on luck because they can play with little money and if they are lucky they can win a lot of money and how people want to win a lot of money even though they know that this can lead years of playing and even then they may never win that much money, still people prefer this path, while in sports betting people don't win a lot of money unless they also put a lot of money in and obviously putting a lot of money in sports betting means risk d lose a lot of money easily. It is enough to see that it is difficult to hear that someone became bankrupt because they were buying lottery tickets, but it is normal to hear that someone became bankrupt because they were betting on sports.

[Hispo]

Well. Needless to say that such ban would be probably very hard or impossible to enforce in an international way. There will be always people to break the law for the sake of sports and also for the sake of money and gambling. Hence, that is why to this day we have illegal activities like dog fights, Ilegal underground fights, illegal racing, cockfighting, etc.
But assuming the governments of the world somehow manage to enforce the ban in an effective way, then I indeed believe the casinos would suffer a very sustancial lost percentage of their volume.
Though, the urge for gamblers and bettors to wager money would be still so big that I believe people started to bet on animal races, on the weather and other things which are completely unrelated to sports.

To some people, betting is such of a big deal in their day or week that even if their passion sport was to be taken away from them, that would not spot them to try to make a quick buck off their chances.

I think this will be difficult to happen when football is not just a sport, but it is almost a religion, it is very difficult to ban it. If it does happen, it will only happen in a few countries and will not affect the entire world's football industry. With the current explosion of technology, casinos can operate everywhere, without borders, so the impact of some countries banning citizens from participating in sports betting is only very small.
Besides, casinos have many games, sports betting (soccer) is just a small game among them. Therefore, the popularity of gambling is not lost. You should remember that the predecessors of gambling are traditional games such as roulette, baccarat and blackjack that have existed since ancient times. Then new forms of betting based on sporting events and horse betting appeared. Not to mention the popularity of poker today, it has developed into an industry of its own with tournaments, live and online events, and even television shows, contributing to its rise and popularity of the gambling industry.

[Hirose UK]

Football is sport that has really been attached to and is loved by everyone from various countries with any background, after all, no matter how bad the problem is and no matter how complicated the conditions that occur in football, it will not have global impact.
Moreover, every problem will always have solution and in football there are lots of problems that occur but up to now it has never affected anything globally that would cause  ban on this sport.

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

There is no doubt that casinos will lose gamblers but I doubt they will lose popularity. Gambling is a big industry while sports betting a very popular market it is not the entirety of gambling, there are other types of gambling games than sports betting that gamblers likes/love to play. also, if you hypothetical scenario did happen, pretty sure those sportsbettors will find an alternative to sportbetting.

It is important to remember that none of this will happen, if it does, perhaps only in certain leagues or competitions and not as whole.
In addition, sports are not just football because there are various types of sports listed in sports betting, so if there is problem in one type of sport, there will still be other sports options.
Popularity and volume of the gambling industry will never be affected, and I think this kind of thinking is going too far, having the idea that global problems with football would cause ban is ambiguous.
Yes, you are right, there will always be other alternatives in gambling that allow gamblers to still bet and have fun.

There will be a shrink and that's a normal thing to see if that has happened all of a sudden. But you can hope for the gamblers that are also die hard fans that they're going to find a way to enjoy themselves with any sports that are still doable to gamble.

In the long run, there will be a recovery for sure but we don't know what actually it is going to be until we see it happens. But at the end of the day, gamblers will remain gamblers and will find a way to bet out of something.

Sport bets constitute a great deal of the business casinos generate, and soccer is the most popular sport around the world and it is not even close, so you can bet that many casinos could go bankrupt because of this, as I doubt they could find a way to replace that lost income, since many gamblers only care about soccer and no other sport.

However this scenario will never happen since soccer as a sport will never be banned, not only because of its popularity but also because compared to other sports soccer is relatively free of any major controversy, so there is not much that those that could be against it could use to argue for its ban.

If sports betting gets banned, it will simply continue to exist, but in the grey/black economy. Online sports betting platforms will host their servers in offshore territories, where sports betting is allowed and those online platforms will become VPN-friendly.
I do think that gambling and the casinos will lose popularity, because banning them means that the normies will stop using them. However, the hardcore gamblers will always find ways to keep gambling, even if gambling becomes illegal. There will be way less casinos/bookies and their income will be way lower, but gambling cannot cease to exist.

betting has been in existence quite long ago before sports betting started and the word adaptation is one powerful thing God has blessed humanity with which generally means that we can adapt to whatever situation we find ourselves in. Even if soccer is banned globally betting will still continue but to be realistic, thier is no possibility that sports or soccer would be banned any moment from now. Soccer is one of the most popular sports since the existence of the world and it's not in any way affecting the world negatively to even attract any opinion regarding the possibility of it being scrapped so thier is absolutely no point of conversation regarding this.
Soccer Stays till the exit of the world.

You don't need a sportsbook to gamble, so if it's taken away, people will still gamble as long as there's a game. Game is created first, people gamble with friends but sportsbook sees this opportunity to facilitate bets and make some money from commissions, so if the government will decide to make sportsbook illegal or simply make them stop their operation, gambling still would exist though not on the same manner.

The thing is, why would the government do that when they can make taxes from casinos/sportsbook they regulate, so these sportsbooks are here to stay and will continue to serve us who are looking for some real entertainment.

[moneystery]

even though this is very unlikely to happen, if it does happen it will probably have a big impact on the sportsbook platform, since football is a sport that is very popular with sportsbook users, and of course the absence of this will be felt very significantly on the sportsbook platform.

even though there are alternative sports such as cricket, ufc, or others, football is a very popular sport among bettors and usually football bettors don't want to change their bets to other sports, so this will certainly be very detrimental to the sportsbook platform since they will lose a lot of users.

I'm sure we all know that almost all gamblers in sports betting bet on sports betting such as football and are rarely interested in other sports because maybe they don't have experience in other sports. I think if football sports betting is closed it will definitely have an impact. also on the sportsbook platform which allows the loss of many gamblers because it is confiscated, even though it is difficult to happen, but that is what will happen to lose many gambling users because it is confiscated.

This is certain to happen that gambling/casinos will lose their popularity and even be threatened with bankruptcy because in my opinion gamblers who bet on sports betting are very much in demand throughout the world so it is only natural that it affects gambling/casinos because they have to accept the loss of many users who gamble there. . I'm sure people won't try betting on other sports betting because it's full of risk betting on gambling but don't have experience and information about the sport in question because the majority of gamblers in sports betting bet on football matches.

I never imagined something like that would happen because it could be said that it is impossible to happen, because sports betting is gambling where the circulation of money is very large because there are so many enthusiasts and that's not just now but has been for a long time, because people really like betting that's why it exists also a type of gambling that is almost the same as sports betting but betting on competing animals such as cockfighting which occurs quite often in Asian countries, especially Southeast Asia such as the Philippines and Indonesia.

If that happens, I think bettors will channel their passion for gambling into other types, but if that happens, bettors can still bet in PvP with friends and the casino is very likely to lose a lot of clients because not all bettors like casino games or other games besides sports betting.

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

You must have dreamt so deeply to think towards this angle, but first, it can never happen, this is unless gambling is entirely banned. People losing in casinos often find solace in sports betting, and if this is now removed, then it means that the government is wicked because it can be the only one to announce and enforce such a ban. However, I bet it, casinos will lose a huge chunk of their customers. Such a decision will anger many gamblers and leave immediately. But to some others who would stay, playing casino games alone and always losing will soon get them tired and leave.

Notwithstanding, there will still be some people gambling no matter what, and it could be either for the fun or for the money because casinos are not totally useless but only risky. This means that some people will still be winning through luck which will motivate a few others too. Regardless, in all, the gambling industry will lose at least 35% of its customer base, in my view.

Eliminating sports betting won't kill gambling. As if blowing out a candle can halt a blaze. Gambling dwarfs sports. It's been around since the beginning and will be after we're gone. Humans are wired to gamble and seek danger. We wager on horses, cards, politics, and even the weather

Casinos won't simply die either. These locations adapt well. They can feed the addiction and make you feel good even when you lose. They'll modify the game to keep you interested

As gambler, we can always adjust, if there's no sportsbook, for sure other popular casino games will earn more wagers. So simply eliminating sportsbook is not gonna kill this big industry, in fact I doubt a government can eliminate a sports betting industry when it's a billion dollar industry and they are benefiting from it.

Let's accept the reality, it's just the world we live in, gambling is here and will stay forever, it's just up to us if we are willing to take a risk.

Is it just football or all forms of sports as a whole? If it's just football, gamblers will keep gambling on other sports. A lot of people including me don't bet on football alone. Football, Basketball, hockey, and tennis are other sports I bet on. Some people gamble on more.

If all forms of sports gambling are banned entirely, surely casino companies will take a hit because a lot of people gamble on sports, but that could mean most of these people will start gambling in other areas.
The gambling industry will be fine without sports betting. Gambling activities may reduce but with time, the numbers will come back.
People want to gamble. It doesn't matter if it's for fun, to make money, to try their luck, or to waste time, what matters is that they'll look for ways to gamble.

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

You must have dreamt so deeply to think towards this angle, but first, it can never happen, this is unless gambling is entirely banned. People losing in casinos often find solace in sports betting, and if this is now removed, then it means that the government is wicked because it can be the only one to announce and enforce such a ban. However, I bet it, casinos will lose a huge chunk of their customers. Such a decision will anger many gamblers and leave immediately. But to some others who would stay, playing casino games alone and always losing will soon get them tired and leave.

Notwithstanding, there will still be some people gambling no matter what, and it could be either for the fun or for the money because casinos are not totally useless but only risky. This means that some people will still be winning through luck which will motivate a few others too. Regardless, in all, the gambling industry will lose at least 35% of its customer base, in my view.

Hey hummy thanks for mentioning me on this one because I was already far away from this thread but got notified that I go mentioned and when I checked I was my friend Victor nice, any ways I wasn't dreaming when I mentioned that and that is why I made this discussions for us to just ramp our head about such possibilities,  because anything can happen, take forum administration Theymos announcements,  of new merits system which have thrown the forum into a legions with high spammers 😆 😆 hahaha and loud mouths.

Any ways enjoy the 01-04 fun mate, but ob a serious note let look at a possibility of having football removed from casinos.

what do you think will becomes of gambling enirly if we wake up one morning to the news of global banning of football,  or a country ban it citizens from participating in football both as a game and also a sport.

Being a sportsbettor, it will be removed but being a gambler will remain as there are still lots of games that a gambler can bet. Casino games are popular, dice, roulette, plinko or any of those fun games that are going to test your luck will remain.

Do you think gambling/casinos will lose it popularity since chunk number of their clients are from sport bookies section?

In the physical casinos, there are the poker tables, roulettes, slots and any other games that their customers prefer. That means that even if there are no bookies out there and they're banned globally as the government have made some interconnected and mass banning on it, most of the gamblers will still find fun into other games. Some developers might even develop as quickly as they can those games in a virtual and AI type. As long as the fun remains to the gamblers and whichever they prefer to bet with, removing this specific type of betting won't stop them from gambling.

There is no doubt that casinos will lose gamblers but I doubt they will lose popularity. Gambling is a big industry while sports betting a very popular market it is not the entirety of gambling, there are other types of gambling games than sports betting that gamblers likes/love to play. also, if you hypothetical scenario did happen, pretty sure those sportsbettors will find an alternative to sportbetting.

Sport bets constitute a great deal of the business casinos generate, and soccer is the most popular sport around the world and it is not even close, so you can bet that many casinos could go bankrupt because of this, as I doubt they could find a way to replace that lost income, since many gamblers only care about soccer and no other sport.

However this scenario will never happen since soccer as a sport will never be banned, not only because of its popularity but also because compared to other sports soccer is relatively free of any major controversy, so there is not much that those that could be against it could use to argue for its ban.

That is because sports part is huge and I think before gambling was invented and its games, there were already sports but we can't deny that casino games are dominating later on, especially now in the online world. That was only in terms of gambling because sports still has it's own charm. Each country has their own favourite sports, so some won't agree with you when you say soccer is more popular than others.

This makes the betting platforms survive even if soccer was removed as one of its games. Never heard that such sport is banned but rather what can be banned here is the betting platforms. That is the ones that can make them go bankrupt.

Betting is among the activities to indulge in but we need to be extremely careful when dealing with the market. Losses are made when the predicted games doesn't pull to the accordance path, moving inverse ways will issued out losses to gamblers but it move directly will bring profits. There's a big difference between been a fan and a gambler. Fan just exists to watch the crucial game and having all the fun needed more like entertainment while gamblers are these set of people that are willing to engaged with every bold moves to gamble.

Hate to break it to you but you can be a fan and a gambler at the same time, it's not like there's an invisible force or the technicality police force that's going to enforce or prohibit you from being a fan of a team and at the same time betting on them in an upcoming game. You don't also need to explain things in a complicated way how losses occur, losses in betting happens because you've made a bet on the team that lost although it's not your fault as no one can predict the outcome anyway.

Well for the main time that is what it will look like. It will obviously be like clothes were striped of someone and get them naked of something as that should happen.

Although, I know it is an hypothetical question that we are meant to discuss and if that happens, yes casinos will lose popularity for the main time before they begin to restrategize on bettering other games. I think that will even give room to more creativity in the area of sports. Of course it will be artificial and more AI in sports will be introduced.

Just as the title stated, what do you think will becomes of gambling enirly if we wake up one morning to the news of global banning of football,  or a country ban it citizens from participating in football both as a game and also a sport.

There will always be alternatives.

It is a certainty, that the news will surely discourage some gamblers, but I believe that a larger number of gamblers in this category will seek alternatives, other games that they can gamble on.

Gambling has become a part of some people's life, and unless gambling is entirely stopped, some gamblers will never stop.

That is actually true, it might weaken so many people and make them lose interest in gambling, but the truth is that alternative measures will be put into place, or they will improvise for the game. Sport betting is one of the major focus of so many gamblers and if taken away will affect so many of them emotionally and otherwise. to be sincere global banning 0f sport will more or less affect the whole world at large because ordinarily sports have affected the life of so many people in the world, enabling them to ease off their emotions, having fun, social interaction, reduction of societal instability and also helps to increase our health status positively, but if banned the reverse will becomes the case. no one will be happy to wake up and found out that there is no sports or bets because it will affect so many people psychologically.
