Sports betting casinos under threat

[Pandu Geddon]

Do you think this will affect all casinos that offer sports betting?

Sports betting and prediction market enthusiasts will have their own customers. Perhaps in the market they could be said to be competing, but in reality their customers might have their own interests.
Casinos that also offer sports betting have better competitiveness. Because it is likely that their customers can enjoy both casino games and sports betting. I think there is nothing to worry about.

Hmm, another thread where Polymarket is mentioned. No, I don't think so.

Sports betting focuses on sports, and some people like it that way. They don't want anything else that will probably confuse them or urge them to gamble for that kind of prediction, especially if they don't know anything about it.
Prediction markets can stick with what they are popular with, and that's mostly politics and other weird lines. Sports betting, on the other hand, will also keep what they do best.

Do you think this will affect all casinos that offer sports betting?
What do you think will be the worst-case scenario for casinos?

No, in fact I see in several sources that people involved in sports casinos specifically betting on sports betting will increase in 2026 compared to 2025, this proves that sports casinos are actually high in popularity at the moment.

Most of those who gamble on sports in general that I see are addicted and fanatical about certain sports clubs, in contrast to betting on the Polymarket site, in general I see that the betting period is long, different from sports betting, 90' bets are completed while betting on Polymarket can wait months. For example, betting predictions for the US president in advance betting on Polymarket can already place bets.

I am sure that sports casinos are increasing in number of gamblers day by day, if you don't believe me just look for sports betting statistics.

‎I don't see it as such a big threat, yes there's gonna be competition in the market and sport betting casinos will most likely lose some of their smart bettors as they'll find advantage in these prediction markets, but I don't think the change will be that massive to hurt sport betting casinos.
‎
‎I believe these casino companies are also smart enough to adapt and include crypto payments and also launch their own style of prediction market.  prediction markets would likely force sport betting casinos to evolve.
‎worst case scenario: ‎casino losses smart gamblers and are left with casual gamblers

I dont think i know a single site which offers only sports betting and not a casino

Regardless they should be good unless they already are a dead site, every site has loyal players who only play there for some reason or the other and house always wins anyways

Their margins may decrease but they keep winning as always
