Has this ongoing war changed your perspective on how you gamble?

Why should the war have a significant impact on how we are gambling, do I believe that most of us are being affected in one way or the other, but with that, it does not detach us from having fun because we have free access to gambling platforms. We enjoy ourselves by playing games without denying access.

I will advise that if we are not interested to be faced by the ongoing war through our mental abilities, then we may not have to bother much of ourselves in trying to fix things up when they are already falling apart, instead we should gamble and take it as the only alternative for us to be engaged and not to think much of the war, honestly bringing don't want to always remember there is conflict going on and try to gamble and compensate themselves with having fun by playing various bets particularly only gambling casino.

The war is affecting us presently, price of oil, petrol and other few things have gone up in price and we are not even close to the affected countries but is this affecting gambling in any way? That's a no.

I am able to made up my mind on a amount that I will use for gambling every week and that's it, both local and onlile casinos are working as expected here, the war has no impact on gambling. This is a problem that will only affect gamblers in the countries that has been hit already.

If you've been living in countries affected by the Middle East crisis, has this ongoing war changed your perspective on how you gamble? Did you take a break or minimise your gambling session so you can save for any eventualities that this war will bring?

I will take a break and focus on how can I survive due to bad economy and probably business will be affected that lessen my profit.

Lesser income means there’s no room for gambling for since it’s a costly form of entertainment. I can find other form of entertainment that is less risky and costly than gambling.

I wonder if someone can still have an appetite to gamble on that condition.

It is possible, the due to fuel prices that went up, people would spend less to cover fuel price increase. But that will do only little number of gamblers, so it wont have a significant effect on gambling sector. Generally, I dont think there will be less gamblers because of war or anything else. There are gambler all over the world, but the war isnt going over whole world.

There are always those who will see in gambling an opportunity to increase income. There will be always people who need money now and they will use gambling because it allows to instantly multiply money.

It makes no sense for me to gamble in crisis, so I don't need anyone to tell me before I would stop. I honestly don't think that gamblers would gamble in such situation because of the risk that they are still go through. So personal I wouldn't be too greedy to gamble during crisis period because I wouldn't like to be left alone in somehow. Honestly, I think a responsible gambler that knows what gambling is all about wouldn't even have appetite at all because you are still putting your life in risky situation.

It's been 14 days since the US and Israel forces attacked Iran. Although Iran's military capabilities are weakened, it bowed to continue the war and prolong the war, because its strategy is not to win the war but to prolong it. After all, a prolonged war will cost the US a lot of money.

The first six days of war in Iran cost U.S. taxpayers at least $11.3 billion in ammunition alone, according to Pentagon estimates reviewed by lawmakers, and experts say the final cost will only increase

How much is the Iran war costing taxpayers? Here's what estimates show

And to the world, the war against Iran has disrupted the energy supply of many countries, which will eventually collapse the economies of many countries relying on Middle East oil.

In the case of Iran  prolonging war so that US will spend more money, i think there is no need, because the more Iran continue to delay, the more destruction US will unleash on Iran , so there is no need because US has all it takes to fight Iran no matter how much they will spend.
During war almost every activities can be disrupted including gambling. It is possible that many gambling shops can be destroyed and movement can also be restricted given no gambler the opportunity to gamble. More also war affects economic activities negatively, the networking system can be shut down even making online gamblers to be affected due to lack of network, and some gamblers who are high stakers, if eventually there is network, they may reduce staking power in other to sustain themselves during war since their may not be other sources of income available as a result of ongoing war.
War is capable of disrupting economic activities, be it physical or online activities and can equally affect your gambling decision in a way.

I think the general public are clueless about what is/could be coming down the line from the
effects of this war so they will continue their lives as normal which includes gambling. Think
about it - all sporting events on a weekly basis are continuing so everything is continuing
"as normal".

Personally I am not a serious gambler so I will continue in the short term.

[Finestream]

My country is obviously affected with this Middle East crisis, and everything just went up so high, even those who have no real connection with this oil price hike. And to think that even those wealthy family in our society have been complaining also about the possibility of seeing everything expensive, how much more for those who have been struggling already for survival prior to this current crisis.

And if asked if there are changes the way I gamble, honestly there's none. I have been gambling already with a small and manageable amount occasionally, and I stick to that despite of the current event. But I don't think same goes for those high rollers, maybe they could make some bet adjustments especially if their income has been compromised already.

There is no doubt that the impact of the war between Iran, the US and Israel, have affected the global economy negatively especially as the price of petroleum products have increased tremendously. As regards the impact of the war on gamblers I think that it depends on the goals of each gamblers, I believe think that it won't affect those that gambles with small amounts but it can affect those that gamble with substerntial amounts. So far gambling activities won't be affected very much because at this stage most of the economies are not directly involved in the war.

The war like many think is just to distract attention from Epstein files as oil prices have skyrocketed thanks to the most dumb us president ever, the only one who thought was a good idea to hit Iran and now strait of Hormuz is closed so even here in Europe we are paying almost double the price of what we used to. For gambling it doesn't impact at all since where I am in Europe there is no war and we access platforms of gambling online, so Internet access cost is the same, nothing has changed here compared to oil prices who hurt us everyday.

On this forum, there are so many people from different countries around the world and some people here on the forum are living in those countries that got affected by the war, for example, those living in the country where internet was turned off, they definitely won't gamble because at such point in time, they are still facing a deep problem that won't let them focus on gambling at the moment.

Trump is doing something incredibly stupid, and the saddest part is that it seems to me that he actually believes he is doing something good. If we look at it globally, I see it as a struggle for resources. First Venezuela, then Iran, and in both cases oil is involved, while the way these situations overlap does not really matter. Of course, this will not affect gambling in any way, except that if people have less money, they will gamble less, that could be the only possible difference.

The OP specifically mentioned user that living on country that affected by war or a situation which you are assumed to be on that affected country to know what will be your mindset on this situation.

Personally, It will affect much my gambling since there will be an economic crisis on that specific country which necessities will be hard to acquired due to limited supply.

I’d rather save my money to by food than waste it on gambling.

I think the issue is about the mentality of the player and how he's able to have a proper understanding of the fact that in times of crisis, management skill is what will scale one through such time in a way that you don't because of the quest for money loose the little you already have.

Different people are responding to the ongoing war differently and even for those of us that are domicile in region that isn't directly affected by the war, the indirect effect still means that we should be careful regarding the way we spend and the place we put our money in.

[Ziskinberg]

Since I don't gamble too much often, I think this change of perspective does not apply for me. But it goes out for those who are still betting irresponsibly and risk all their funds like they have no chances to lose in the long run.

With the current price inflation, along with rise of oil price, I just realized that everyone should be more cautious on spending their money.

Although I understand that at some point, gambling is already part of our lives, but if you think you are maximizing your gambling funds more than you are saving or investing, then this is the right time to gamble wisely and spend an amount you can afford to lose, or else you will be the left with regret because you have no money already to make ends meet especially that the current crisis seems endless for now.

[Haunebu]

I don't reside in any of the countries affected by that ongoing war which is why it has had zero impact on my gambling conquests, but I can see how it would have a big impact on people who reside in countries like Iran, Israel etc thanks to oil shortage primarily.

If this war carries on for a lot longer, even unaffected countries will start getting affected leading to gamblers from such countries reducing their gambling expenditures too.

[lodocus]

but how about you guys, have you already felt the effect like inflation?

Inflation? In Turkey, you don’t need a war breaking out right next door to feel the effects of inflation. You could say the value of our money is halving every two years. It’s like Bitcoin, but here it’s happening a bit faster (and in reverse)

I hope the war doesn’t affect anyone’s country, and that people can continue both gambling and doing the things they love.
