Do you still go in a physical casinos?

[LogitechMouse]

This question is for everyone.. since online casinos are the trend now, who here still visits physical casinos?
----

I want to go to a physical casino just because I want to experience gambling on it.

As somebody who lives in a province and in a remote area, physical casinos are pretty much non-existent here in our place. The only part where physical casino exists are in the cities and unfortunately, we are far from a city. I want to feel the vibes when playing in a physical casino because ever since I started gambling, I most of the time am doing it online. I guess the number of people who are going to a physical casino nowadays has decreased significantly because of the fact that there are many gamblers who prefer gambling online since it's more convenient for them.

That's how I feel as well, but as of this moment, I just want to enter to a physical casino because I haven't been in my whole life.

Its the same in my country, the casinos tend to located in the bigger cities
although there are betting shops in mose decent sized towns too. I too live
in the countryside but occasionally visit the city, I have passed by a physical
casino recently during the day and had a quick look inside and it was VERY QUIET,
quieter than when I used to go to Casinos regularly.

So no I dont go to Casinos regularly and I suspect they are less popular now
than they were say 10 years ago, its way more convenient to go online but
there is no socialising online.

In our country, there are a lot of physical casinos that are near to attractions and malls. Even the casinos themselves became malls and places to dine with some fine dining. It's in our plan if ever we go to that biggest mall that's near to these local casinos in our country OP, we'd check out if they're kind of good or not. I haven't been there for a very long time and kind of a bit older now and forgotten how it looks like. This is how good online casinos are, we're forgetting to go to the traditional ones because it's been so good and convenient.

Don't know if this is common on places where gambling is been legalize by government but in our country we have limited access to that places. Although tried to gamble on that place and somehow enjoy the experience. The only problem stop me to gamble their is the accessibility that's why I don't gamble regularly on physical casinos.

Good thing online gambling has been introduce since its really giving us convenience compare to traditional gambling places. That's why right now I choose to gamble on online casino because they also offer what physical casino have.

Also what's important at all is security since we don't need to worry anything since we can gamble safe at home.

I don't like carrying money in my pocket, it seems risky to me. I don't even use physical banks. I only visit them when I am going to convert my cash into a physical commodity or real estate. In my opinion, casinos are full of criminal people who want to take your money from you somehow. I don't think it's a very sensible choice to be in a place where there are criminal people instead of online...

It totally depends on your country and area your are living, I don't disagree with your that sometimes criminals could just disguise themselves to come into the casino looking for people that will win big money so that they could track them home to steal the money from them (it happened last year) but this is not happening in every country, when you say you don't like to carry cash around you failed to realize that even at some of those casinos, they have point of sales machine which you can easily use your debit card to pay. Even if you decide to go along with cash, it's not a lump sum your are going with, you can go to the casino with  small amount and that's would not cause any problem for you.

Those that have private cars or those that will intend to go there through a private commute are the ones that can get there. Although it's not that far from the public and common places and I think that there is a taboo from most that only those with money can enter their premises. And  we both agree about online gambling, this is ease and comfortable and we don't have to go with the commute that's definitely out of this world if we're talking in our country.

You can never replace the full experience of going into the casino. It's just better than online gambling. I think online gambling is good if you want to improve the experience of watching an event, it gives extra excitement to the result as you are just waiting for the result to be on your side and make some money, so if used in moderation it is great, but you lack the social experience, which is the best thing about going to the casino. It's like online gaming vs meeting with mates at the LAN parties that used to happen back then. It's healthier to get out and meet people than be inside gambling and gaming. Unfortunately LAN gaming locals disappeared because nobody wanted to go there when you could play at home, but casinos have survived.

I think you're right but that lesser people in there means not that there is actual lesser people in there.
With what I saw, I still think that there is still a lot of people because many are also introduced into this way of gambling.
But if ever they will sail to both sides of online and physical gambling, their perspectives about online gambling will change.

Physical casinos now are kind of just visited not for regular gaming but for usually once in a while experience. This is why physical casinos should really invest more in their infrastructure or architecture because that is what will pull more customers. If the physical casino looks bad and doesn’t have good service, no one’s going to be visiting that anymore.

This question is for everyone.. since online casinos are the trend now, who here still visits physical casinos?

From the beginning to the end, I personally have never gone to an offline casino.
because it is illegal and prohibited in my country. 'so if there is offline gambling and it is discovered by the police or authorities, then it is certain, I will go to jail if I am discovered and caught. because of that, there is no way I would risk myself with all that.

However, for online gambling, it is a way out that we can take advantage of and follow even though we are in a country that prohibits gambling. because basically, as long as we do it privately and still have self-management, yes, we can still enjoy it more wisely and optimally.

Depending on the level of corruption in your country, I could almost guarantee you there must be some underground casinos running in your most important cities and being kept by corrupted authorities themselves, for the sake of money and profit.
There was a similar situation here in my country for several years, the government officially banned gambling and casinos, but that did not stop those with ties with the government to open their own gambling houses.
The money always ended up in the pockets of those politicians and a slice of the pie for those who were the front people of the illegal casino.
Though, I don't know what country are you from, so I cannot give a full opinion on your personal experience.

You are probably right, but I think I would be too afraid to walk into these underground casinos. You have absolutely no protection against anything and are doing something illegal yourself and that would prevent you from having any possibility to get what is owed to you. In a worst case scenario you find yourself with a gun against your head.

If you don't know the people very well who are hanging out there, don't ever go there. If you win big and there are no rules as everything is illegal, I don't know whether it feels great to leave that place with a bag of cash in your hands.

In my place, we don't have much casino. What we have in betting shops to help user facilitate their bets and anyone can open it with a small kiosk, doesn't require big capital and such places people don't visit them to spend much time, they do it to book their game and go next about their life. If you see people around, it's must be a bigger shop where you see people that play another type of bet called virtual games, our physical place are not attracting to hangout.

Now that technology with phone has advance, people prefer to used their cell device to do the game betting they want and go their separate ways. Some people don't even use average popular casino again, they prefer to use other international casino where they can bet with other currency and as well as Bitcoin option, the versatility makes gambling fun unlike the one around them that makes them gamble with local funds, not everyone fancy thier local currency.

We all know gambling’s about fun, but like malls or shops that were packed before, barely anyone goes now because you can just order online. Is the same thing happening to physical casinos? Are they getting crushed by online gambling?

If you’ve tried both, share your experience!

I’ll also create a poll for you to vote.

Several years ago, offline casinos were banned in my city. What was the reason for such a decision? It is difficult to understand this issue. Most likely, the entrepreneurs did not want to share their profits with the city administration. So the authorities decided to take such radical measures. Corruption is very widespread. You have to share not only taxes with the state, but also give part of the profits to those in power. Without this, it is simply impossible to do such a business in a small city. Everything is arranged here and has already become a part of life. If you want to do business in such a way that no one bothers you with excessive checks, then be kind enough to share the money with those who can put pressure.

That's why in our country, just like hotels, casinos are very classified as well. So the big ones are in the city proper like in Metro Manila or near high rise community in Bonifacio Global City. But I have played to not se decent casinos too, and obviously their is contrast in experience.

So if by chance anyone want to experience then I would suggest that it's better to really go to those big casinos like Resorts World, City of Dreams or Solaire. Each of this casinos are under the management of famous casino operators that's why they are world class.

I sometimes visit a physical casino.  Since there is a nearby physical casino in my place  which is located in front of a mall, I have the luxury of visiting it whenever I go to do some shopping in the said mall. 

I agree that playing in a physical casino brings a new atmosphere, excitement, and fun, probably because of the ambiance, so I do not think that it is just a waste of time visiting it. It is worth the visit if we talk about new feelings from playing online casinos and possible new acquaintances.

Bro you are lucky that you have a nearby casino that is located in front of a mall, I have never got the chance to have that. And so with that, if we ever will want to visit a physical casinos, we will have to travel for hours just to play.

But in any case, it's worth it, specially if you win big and then you go home. But the trauma of losing and then you have to drive for hours, Lol. Anyway, just like others, it was for the experience of it. But since now we have online, then might be better to do it at home if no one has the time to play and drive.

Both online and physical casinos have their own pros and cons. The fun in a physical casino is the environment and the social aspect which makes you feel happy and excited but accessibility might be a problem. However, online casino is always with you in your pocket everywhere you go, you can easily place your bet making it more convenient. Technology has taken over the world. I gamble online mostly.

In the last few years I have been gambling only online and not because it is a faster way to get my risk needs satisfied. In my country there was a ban on gambling activities outside of designated areas. Going more than 1000 km to play in a land-based casino does not make any sense. And I never liked playing in illegal casinos because the contingent there is not very friendly. Therefore, I have to settle for online gambling or gambling in the circle of friends, which is not so often due to lack of time.

But if you did not have to travel 1000km to gamble offline, and have a physical casino nearby, would you gamble there? Or you prefer online gambling because it allows to gamble whenever you feel you want to gamble? There are people who love gambling, but will never go to a physical casino, because they feel uncomfortable on public. Some people are so focused on a game or process, that they dont like to be bothered IRL.
