Topic: Cockfighting? - page 8. (Read 3863 times)

Crypto casinos will never add a cockfighting option to the betting options they have because this is the same as horse racing which uses animals for competition but cockfighting seems more cruel because the owner brings two chickens together to fight until one of them is completely helpless or even die on the spot.
But few days ago I had access to a fiat casino owned by several countries in Asia and there was a cockfighting option there and the betting method for the winner was usually by using color and usually it was (meron) or red and (wala) or blue.
I tried betting but failed I lost some money from this bet it was really ridiculous and it was better to bet directly by watching the cockfight openly.

These cockfighting superstitions are  fallacy.  There are no proven statistics that prove that these superstitions really work.  Even my relative who used to raise fighting fowl has his own superstition but in the end stopped because most of his fowl lost.


Lol, I think these casinos made a feasibility study and found out that cockfighting is not popular in the area they service or the regulation is too tight and not worth the risk.

Can you point out on which those "Chicken" casinos do say that they might be considering on adding it up? 

So far, after all the years that i've been lurking around on this market or forum, then i dont really see any crypto based casinos which are really having plans on adding it up.
Its not really that shocking though yet its not really known worldwide on which means that demand is less, therefore it wont really be shocking that these businesses or platforms wont really be
having those kind of considerations for some possible add up.

Somehow, into those people who do really like on betting on cockfight then they could really be always to do such thing on which we know that there's really a specific
platform or site on which you could really make out those bets but of course it is really just that solely created for cockfighting and there's no other
games which are available. You could always have those choices on what to deal with.

I heard that many of the crypto casinos were really considering it for a while, but in the end they were just chickens hahahaha 

LOL, if you talk about superstition, I did say that this is something that is very common in most parts of the world, and it revolves around a lot of things, not just in gambling or cockfighting in particular, Different people and tradition believe different things actually, but this you said is actually hilarious.

What tradition is there in cockfighting that they need to follow for God to give them luck? unfortunately, your comment is not detailed enough.
Since you say they are your friends, I believe you know the details, please elaborate more on this, I personally would love to learn a thing or two from this.

have so many friends that known to be superstition about cockfighting , they even believe that God provide them Luck if they follow the traditions .

What you meantioned there is the local sabong which have legal permit but the one I discussing it he online sabong which is continuously banned by Philippine goverment check it here https://www.bworldonline.com/the-nation/2022/12/29/495913/marcos-continues-ban-on-e-sabong-operations/ this is last year article and I believe they are still imposing this ban to this activty since the controversy happen especially on missing sabongero still not been solved by them. And I don't think E sabong will be back anytime soon since they already see the heavy implication or the negative effect it can bring to their peope.

If they want to play sabong they can still do that physically since there are coliseums that are permitted by government to run this activities but for sure they are been regulated and not everyone can get in especially those minors. I also think that even if they ask for permits to make this a legal operation for sure to many legislator will not allow them to get a license since for sure they already done with it and don't want any more any huge controversy regarding on that illegal gambling activity will show up.

The bettors will always be there to support any type of bets, what is needed is for them to just say bets and that's it, there are many things to bet on, even with a heads and tails, seeing this from the connection that means they are making or trading with animals and it is until one of them dies, I think it is a traditional custom for some countries, some towns, or in some specific place, it is something that cannot be denied, customs, traditions are something that will always be maintained However, things when it comes to how to do so that they can establish better ways of placing bets are already there, we all know that there are many animal defenders, and they will not accept that there is or exists any type of animal abuse regarding them, no matter what. animals that are eaten or not, have a life, I think those things are what everyone bases themselves on not accepting betting activities on this, I also think that things can go in that Direction.

Well, considering that every day Things get stronger with animal protection rights, it will practically be impossible for a player, a person, or several groups of people to be able to access rooster events, as well as horse events as well, because for some people horse racing is very exciting, but I understand that there is a very strong Associated animal abuse, this type of thing sometimes causes people to become very sensitive, because basically it is a living being, there are many that they do not accept seeing any living being suffer and it is normal, it is like a gesture or something on the part of humans to avoid suffering, and now in this world the way things are going, where there is almost a war, well, they can show all these types of Acts as not acceptable, I personally like animals , I have never been in the presence of a Cockfight, or a horse race , I don't know what it will feel like to be there.

AFAIK, there will be a lot of strikes from the animal welfare groups that will make a noise from those government-supported or licensed casinos that will have cockfighting on their books. They are very active in dealing with those because they think that it's no good for the animals to have their drops of blood shed and fight while there's an audience playing to bet on them like an organization named PETA. And there are governments too that are against on it so, that's a good initiative for those countries that don't allow this to happen because they've got ethics and belief on it that it's no good so, they're not allowing it to happen even if it's being done somewhere else that they don't where it is.

Those countries that are allowing it probably are making a lot of money from it. They cannot ignore that there are many people hooked on it and that's why they just can't stop it wholly. If there are local authorities allowing this to happen and they're all good on it, then there is nothing people can do about it that are against it unless the organizations that I've mentioned will step in and will call for it to be stopped. That's what they can do if they're subject to it and whether there's gambling or not on it as long as it's exchanging fights and lives, they'll for sure going to take that into notice as that's their mission and advocacy.

The e-sabong had been banned by the Philippine government but the local cock fighting is still legal in the country as long as they have the license to operate.
https://www.bworldonline.com/the-nation/2022/12/29/495913/marcos-continues-ban-on-e-sabong-operations/

Cockfighting is allowed in the Philippines as long as they have the license and comply with the regulation.  E-sabong or online cockfighting is banned because of the scandal where many people where kidnapped and probably murdered since these people are still no where to be found.

Its not been totally banned but rather they are pertaining into those illegal operating places on which cockfighting is been held.We do know that there really that arenas which are legal which cockfighting gamblers or enthusiast would really be just simply going there and would really be neither be tending to make out some bets or would really be making their roosters have some fight.In speaking about license or permit
then we could check on this one out.

https://www.dilg.gov.ph/legal-opinions/Issuance-of-a-cockfighting-or-sabong-special-permit/1365

Which does simply means that it is really that been allowed or something that not that banned but only needing up some permits or license for them to operate.
It would really be just that so normal that if the government would really be implying those permits then of course those operators needed up to follow.
Any operation which it didnt get in line with government laws and regulations would really be always considered illegal and something that could really put you up in prison.
This is why it is really just that important on seeing this kind of consideration.

It's basically business for platforms or service providers, they are always in the lookout for what's popular in a region so that they can offer that to the residents. Now the local betting shops or platforms know that people there love cockfighting and it is a very popular game among the masses that live in there, so they understand that if they offer bets for the cockfights, they can easily earn a lot of money from that because they obviously take some commission for the bets and lost bets are also kept by them.

You can barely find any platform offering the opportunity to place bets on an international level because the game is basically banned around the globe and it's only some countries where it's still allowed and it might not even be allowed but local authorities allow it and they don't get those arenas seized.

There's only one problem with this cock fighting gambling events especially on Philippines since the government ban this activity that's why its not accessible to majority of cock fighting gamblers as of the moment. To many irregularity happen and crimes which is still unsolved that's why this industry has been shutdown by government since they don't see any good relevance that this will stay since it cost to much damage to the person who gamble.

Most traditional gamblers would provably support it but they need to go on physical places like cockpit arena before they can gamble since they cannot seek legal sites offering this. I guess this is better action done by government since this is rampantly endorse by anyone and we see a lot of unfortunate stories happen due to gambling addiction towards this cockfighting events.

Aside the lifespan thing which you are talking about, which personally believe to be one of a valid reason why such game should never be on a global gambling casino, another valid reason which have been actually discussed multiple times is the fact that in several parts of the world, anything that could cause any kind of harm on an animal is considered as animal cruelty, and we know that before a game like cockfighting to go into global gambling casinos, it first have to become a global game that catches the interest of at least the majority of the world's population.

And you and i know that, if cock fighting is considered to be animal cruelty in some parts of the world, global recognition of such game will never be possible, which also means that , global gambling casinos will never make such game available to gamblers for betting.

So for me, i would say that, we should just forget about cock fighting ever becoming a global game for the chances of this happening is very rare.

More on traditional and gamblers who mostly support the game are those who also wanted to watch it live, though online access is already being patronize and there are many online sites who offered betting but the majority who really supporting or enjoying it are those who go and gamble inside the arena, they are more on trusting their guts seeing the roster in flesh compared to those gamblers who just purely basing their bets on luck.

I know it's difficult to explain, as everything is according to your luck, but there are gamblers who follow traditions and superstition,
things that only cockfighting so-called experts can put words on their own to explain what it is or if it's really exists.

For me, I will say that this game is far more better if allowed to be played local, and not what could be had on casino or any gambling site, due to it's tendency of having a short duration and lifespan of cock. Because I'm sure for an individual to be able to gamble on such game, he/she is ought to have a clue on the strength & weakness of each cock, to know which is capable of performing better in a fight, which all those can never be possible within the short life time a cock has to stay before death

And not only that, but the fact that a horse has a long lifespan (i.e 25-30yrs), as compared to cock (i.e 5-10yrs), that alone is good advantage of people organizing a sport around it, since with such period, any user should be able to know the strength and weaknesses of each horse to know which best to gamble on base on past previous performance, unlike in the case of cock that has a short time frame.

As a local resident of PH, I think the masses in our country are more familiar with cock fighting rather than poker or at least in my area. There are at least 2 physical cockfighting arena in my city and it's neighboring city and there's no legal casino around. I live on a province in the Philippines and it is easier to find cockfighting arena than casino to be honest. Even my late grandfather raise cocks to fight in those arena! This is why I didn't get shocked when an online cockfighting casino rapidly grow in our country. I think cockfighting is a norm here.

online cockfighting is legal in  several countries and so you can easily find it over the net. and still raking billions of dollars. and it seems that PH is leading on this one. then india, indonesia cuba, or france.
one can check this article - Countries With Legal Cock Fight Bets in the World just don't mind the gambling site they are recommending here. do your own search of the site.
the existence of this betting type seems to be more on the tradition of the area. how they evolved thru time and sustain this traditional gambling game.

The country where I live is a pluralistic country so that in one country there are various tribes, cultures, languages and religions. So the views related to cockfighting are also different. However, because the majority of citizens in my country are followers of the Islamic religion, where in that religion there is a regulation that prohibits gambling and cockfighting activities, so the opinion of the majority of people is that gambling and cockfighting are bad things to do. .


Yes, that's true because basically cockfighting is a type of traditional betting. Betting and cockfighting have become normal and commonplace because these activities have been carried out and held too often so that cockfighting activities are no longer something strange to show.

Each countries does have its own set of rules and regulations and in regarding about citizens views towards things. If the government you are living or place on which animal cruelty is really that highly frowned upon then
expect that people who do live on it would definitely be having on the same views and on the time that they are seeing someone who are really that engaged into such activities but for those places who do really get used to this kind of gambling or betting then it would really be just that part or normal on which its citizens would really be involved with it. Some had already elaborated that this had been already that a traditional things for
them on which it is really just that normal neither they would engage or not.

This is why it would really be that depending whether a certain individual would really be engaing or not basing up on where he do live or if its allowed or not. Lets just respect on what other gamblers been dealing
with.It might really be that a harsh thing about animal cruelty but it turns out that this is really just that a normal thing into  these places and they do make out bets out of that.
In the place on where i do live, then this kind of betting or gambling is really that allowed, it turns out that it is really just that prohibited when illegal online betting sites
are really that taking place or running up.
