Are sportsbook users turning into casino users over time?

[sompitonov]

In fact, sports betting is now far from being a classic. There are many options available for placing bets in real time as the games are being played. In a way, live betting in sports betting gives people the feeling of playing a casino game. For this reason, those who bet on sports may not need to choose casino games, but those who want much faster results will of course prefer casino games over sports betting. It would be surprising if someone who bets didn't play casino games.

I also think it's all connected, and casinos were the last gambling games I'd ever consider playing. However, when I was playing poker and placing bets, trying to develop strategies and control my emotions and risk like a pro, I was constantly presented with offers, promotions, and bonuses encouraging me to try slots, roulette, and other similar games. And the most interesting thing is that they succeeded, because when I couldn't control my emotions while betting, I went to roulette and lost my entire deposit on tilt. This, of course, was a huge blow for me, and it took me months to recover; it was very difficult. Basically, I want to say that you should only play games where you have an advantage in any form.

Most gamblers who transition from sports betting to casino games and vice versa are not really in for fun; the goal is to seek for different gambling games that will generate profits faster. While some gamblers might see this as being strategic, it can destroy their bankroll faster. The strategy for both gambling games are different; sports betting drains the bankroll slowly while casino games drains quickly. With the adrenaline rush and quest to make money, it will be difficult for a gambler who combines this two to be able to regulate himself.

I think this is a correctly pointed out trail of events. While waiting for a game to get over, the player goes to slot machines to pass the time and lose money on that too. It can be either to kill time or to cover up the expected loss from the sports betting.

Either of which shows they have poor control over their emotions and that is something that needs to be controlled for any player.

If a gambler is not sticking to the games they understand, they are increasing their risk before knowing it. The casino's profit continues though.

[WhoYouCantKill]

This shift is quite common. Those betting on sports mostly move to casino games because they are quicker, always available, and do come with bonuses that seem more rewarding. The speed may be enticing, mostly if one is waiting for matches or trying to pursue losses. On the other side, some players of casino drift along sports as they want what feels more analytical and with less randomness.

Many people do not switch as a result of strategy. They switch because of boredom, curiosity, or the hope of winning faster. And normally, they less estimate the different risks levels.

I played free spins when was waiting the result of the game. Some time later i understood, that slots can be useful for relax time to time. That`s all. Iknow about gambling for about twenty years, mostly played poker, in sport betting about 3-4 years and still don`t interesting in casino games. The only exception is slots with minimal bet for half an hour sometimes after hard day. And i don`t see any reason to play casino games - they too dull for me.
So you can like or dislike it. If you like - even making bets can make you casino gamer.

[SFR10]

So I wanted to know whats been your guys experience or if you know of people who have made that switch?

As someone who has been betting on sports for the past year, I've only tried a few casino games when I first started, but that's it... I wouldn't consider myself as someone who has made that kind of switch ^{[I prefer not to spend a lot of time in gambling platforms, since they're somewhat addictive]}.
^{- Despite not personally knowing anyone who has made that kind of switch, I'm pretty sure they exist since a lot of platforms offer both.}

[Ishicryptic]

I’ve actually seen this happen a lot especially among bettors here in the Philippines, most people I know who started purely with sports eventually ended up trying casino games. Sports betting can feel slow because you’re waiting for matches, cashouts or odds to change so during that dead time it’s easy to click over to slots or live casino just to have something happening before they realise it they’re already playing more than they planned but I’ve also seen the reverse. Some casino players shift to sports because they want something that feels a bit more skill based or predictable where they feel like they at least have some control.

There is no reason why a gambler cannot do sports betting and play casino games alternatively, whatever makes you happy as a gambler there is no reason not to explore it. Sports bet takes time before you can get the results of the games you bet on and since switching to casino games are not far off you can start playing slot or whatever instant result games while you wait for your bet results. I don't think we can know the percentage of gamblers that started with sports bet then switched to casino games or the other way around. What is important is that they are gambling responsibly with amount that they are comfortable to loose.

[michellee]

Gamblers can shift to other gambling games if they want without any reason. They think that they have more free money which they can use to play other gambling games.

Sometimes I do this when I place a bet and still have free time. I don't want to leave the casinos and see around inside of my account. I can play slot games but mostly, I leave the casinos.

We don't know their reason. But no matter if you shift to other gambling games, you should control yourself and not spend too much. You must remember that the loss will be behind you if you continue playing gambling.

[ginsan]

It won't be a big mistake when you can do both, occasionally play slots and occasionally bet sports books, both can be used, as long as you stick with a predetermined amount of money so that you don't make a big mistake at a loss that you can't accept in a casino, I say it's a hybrid.

Sports betting is also inseparable from luck, the skill that exists in sports betting is to increase the odds, therefore this skill is very useful to see the potential, but there is no guarantee that it can win.

This is your own conclusion, but I believe as a gambler, only stick to what works for you. You don't have to do everything in gambling. If you are a sports bettor, bet on sports most time and do the casino games only when you want to have fun.

A gambler with the intention of having fun can play both sports and casino games, but one with the intention of making a profit will only play games they are more familiar with. One where good luck can be expected.

This means that no one can be sure that what the OP means can happen, because it has two answers, it can be yes and no, but of course the person has an optional choice, he can play in the casino and can also bet in the sportsbook, depending on his wishes, there is no definite trend, but usually I think it depends on where he wins more, that's where he will stay longer.

For example, if he doesn't win much in sports betting, but when he starts betting in casinos and gets a big win, I think he will play longer in casino/slots games, even though he was a sports gambler before.

I've been considering something I've noticed in a lot of bettors, it seems that a lot of gamblers who first concentrate only on sports then try out casino games.  Sometimes they take it lightly, and other times they take it much more seriously than they had anticipated. Do you believe that this is a typical shift?

Both Sport betting and playing of casino games are all gambling, and as such, it will be very hard to find someone who only plays Sport betting and don't place a bet on casino games once in a while, most especially when they are using a casino that has both types of games. Because in a nutshell, while Sport betting requires an intensive skill and knowledge about you been able to analyze and come up with the right game prediction. On the other hand, Casino games such as slot, roulette and plinko are all games of luck. Which is why when a gambler might have place a bet on Sport game, they also come to casino games to try their luck. And in the process of trying luck, they may end up spending more. Which is why it's always good to gamble responsibly.

[DaNNy001]

I bet on both sports and casino games but I don't focus too much on casino games because I know that winning is based on luck a lot of times...it is easy to just get lost playing casino games after losing your bets but there's nothing wrong in trying to get lucky as long as you are staking moderately...casino games can be very addictive that's the reason why you must always be learn to gamble responsibly

[Nwada001]

I don't see any problem with that. It's normal for bettors to look for new ways to bet; I like sports betting, but I spend most of my time playing slots and blackjack, for fun. However, you can do both. There's no right or wrong.

I know there is no right and wrong in which game to choose to be playing and which one not to choose; as long as we, the players, know exactly which one gives us what we want at every given time, then we should be good with it. One thing that I'm even enjoying the most with the new era of these casinos is that you can get both types of service in just one casino.

[Odogwu-Blockchain]

I don't know about others, I can personally stick to sport betting because it lets me understand exactly what I am doing and gives me the time to think before taking decisions, gives me the space to analyze and wait patiently for the outcome, I don't care about the time it takes before results, the carefulness and skillful knowledge it comes with gives me joy.

While some gamblers who cares about time of execution would rather flow to casinos, casinos life draining

The choice of games is actually determined by the desire of what we want to undergo at a particular time and hence convenience is the most important thing when choosing the game. The elasticity of the modern casino generation causes the experience to be more spacious as well when a single platform contains several games. We are able to change our mood without necessarily traveling long distances and this will enable us to having fun in rather a practical manner without necessarily stretching ourselves.

However, it's also possible that some casino players transition into sports because they seek something more "skill based."

I've always had this perception. Casino players migrate to sports betting, due to the belief skills are determining in sports, instead of luck. That was a phenomenon quite present on the transition between the early crypto (or dice) websites to the new age of gambling industry, when the boom of new gambling platforms happened, including on mainstream channels, like for an example the gambling businesses which sponsor soccer championships and clubs.

I don't think the opposite is frequent, though. Who is into sports hardly ever will into traditional casino games, because what would be the logic behind that? Unless they are tired of sports betting and want to have fun with another gambling category, I don't see any other reason for that.

Do you believe that this is a typical shift?

From what I've heard, the following reasons are given: casinos offer extra bonuses and rewards because they see people playing slots nonstop. Since sports betting feels slower, casino games fill up the "dead time" and make it simpler to pursue losses on slots or other rapid games. People become tired waiting for live matches.

So I wanted to know whats been your guys experience or if you know of people who have made that switch?

Ive noticed the same trend, and I think it’s pretty common. A lot of sports bettors eventually dip into casino games just out of curiosity or boredom during downtime, just as I do. Sports betting has those natural gaps, like waiting for matches to start, halftime, and long breaks between events. So some people fill that space with faster casino action. And of course, promotions and bonuses make it even more tempting.

In my case, I’m definitely sports-first. That’s where I spend most of my time and bankroll. I’m using bet105.ag. But yeah, every now and then if there’s a good promo, I’ll jump into the casino side, mostly table games since I’m not really a slot grinder.

Ive also seen the reverse happen when some casino players get tired of pure RNG and shift toward sports because they want something that feels more strategic and less luck-dependent.

[Lida93]

Am dense with sports betting which no form of gambling would complete interest me the way sports does, at least for now I have seen that other game. Not that I don't play casino games like roulette and blackjack or even dice but I seldom play these, compared to how much I do with sports betting. There was a time I played one casino game for the first time, I lost my money in less than 4 seconds, I couldn't understand what happened unlike football where I can watch the game and know about what and why this team or that team lost.

~Snip~

So I wanted to know whats been your guys experience or if you know of people who have made that switch?

I tend to gamble on slot machines more often than on sports betting. In fact, the first time I ever gambled, it was on slots, not sports. It’s true that casinos give out more rewards the more you play and the more you spend, that can make the experience addictive which is one of the reasons I often find myself playing slots. Most of my friends also spend more time on slots than on sports betting. When I asked them why, they said it’s because slots are simple and fast to play. Unlike sports betting, you don’t need analysis or strategy before placing a bet you just press a button and play.

[Mindyspace]

From what I see, this really does happen. Many people who start only with sports betting end up trying the casino out of curiosity, for the bonuses, or simply to pass the time while waiting for a game. But it's a very common change; some go just for fun, others end up taking it more seriously than they imagined. And there's also the opposite: people from the casino who migrate to sports looking for something more strategic. You understand? In the end, each person ends up finding the rhythm that suits them best; I hope to find mine soon...

As a gambler the switch between the 2 is somehow necessary because you will need both to strike a balance. Not totally engrossed in a any one of them in such a way that you are not totally lost in one alone. You can be more on the sports more of the times but its still necessary to suffle between the casinos . You need the bonuses and extra cash that would certainly come from there to make up for the losses that comes from the sports bets. And this goes either ways. I.e is Vise Visa
