Let's be a little bit patient, in the upcoming months situation should be better.
I'm not for too strict suppression.imposed by governments. Yes, we have to protect ourselves from virus but not on every price, our human rights are important too.
We all miss sport events for betting and get a bit bored but soon everything will improve, hold a little bit more.

There seems quite different nowadays than the previous weeks because nowadays we have few infected people recorded and most of the heavily affected countries has been subsided. yeah, if things will continue like this, we will soon see some match up again and some sports event that we wanted to see all this time.
I hope that in all places the number of infected persons were lessen but no. Here, hundreds of positive cases were still added everyday. Then there is no sure vaccine yet even though there are lot of people working on it, even though economy is really down, and even though there are many lives that are taken. Match up and gathering of people for an event is still impossible for us in here.

We require a country where the cases have started to reduce or near negligible and a sport playing nation of the major games. this will boost it as that country can host the various games in their country and this will boost the other government as well to try and figure out how to curb it quickly so that they can also start the events sooner provided the cases are next to zero or very less. Also, for audiences this will give them some relief to enjoy the times watching their favourite sports live on TV or through any other medium.

They do if their interest is gambling, however, without a sports being played outside, no gambler would be able to do their thing, maybe they will try other type of gambling but once a gambler's passion is on sports, it will not be replace by any kind of gambling.

As for me, I would just wait until the sports will come back, I am confident we will be able to see them back soon.
I've met here who tried something new and liked it, so I'm not saying everything. Because others can't wait to return to sports betting and because they are delayed and restless. No one knows yet whether the wait will actually end, it seems that it will take longer because the current situation is still unsettled. But there is good news that there are other leagues trying to get back into sports.

At the same time, the pandemic is spreading people have a long time gambling online. Because they are stuck doing what they used to do or they enjoy outside. Almost everyone now focuses on their smartphones/desktops and you will find that many also share online gambling platforms even on social media groups. So they can't help but see it and even those who have no interest in it will want to try it out for comfort.

I think this is actually a very suitable environment for dapps. Currently, projects could be described with cryptos, betting and gambling. Thus, they would have made a very good promotion during this period when people used internet.

Excellent post Juggy777, thank you.

The sad thing is the impact of the coronavirus issue will go beyond anything we have seen before. Once the public goes back to leading a normal life it will be clearer how many people seek psychological help for various forms of trauma including that associated with violence, addiction and a lot more. Gambling addiction is something that will be need to addressed at some stage in the aftermath of the post-COVID-19 era.


Where are the live sports on television right now? Those that placed bets pre-coronavirus might have started spending their money elsewhere and the impact of their betting habits was an important reason for me to start the thread.

While staying at home for long lengths of time some people may have spiralled in to betting addiction and some may have simply kept their betting under control or moved on to other things.

@JollyGood currently there’re no live sports on the television, but very soon we shall watch Bundesliga live in action and all though it’ll be really weird to watch those matches without the fans in the stadium, but something is better than nothing right?. Also I had shared a thread out here on how people had switched from sports gambling to betting on marbles, and you’re right too as various news outlets have reported that gambling has only increased during the covid19 phase.

Now that almost all sporting events all over the world are cancelled, those wanting bet of sports events are left with having to find alternatives. What are the majority doing?

Are some giving up and trying to become reformed gamblers?

Are some gambling on casinos instead?

What are alternatives most sports betting users are now switching to?



I stop gambling during this pandemic. I chose to save the money for future use specially the lockdown in my country was extended for 2 more weeks, and its been 2 months since the lockdown was imposed. Online gambling was really the hit now. Some of my friends are into CS GO and DOTA 2 betting. I'm into those games that's why I'm reading opinions from the threads about the game too.

Gamblers in my place chose to gamble using cards while in lockdown. They aren't that informed about online gambling. They are much familiar with mahjong and tongits. They use it as a time consuming activity while in lockdown. Kind of a win solution for them while casino's are not in operation. Instead of work from home, they gamble at home.

If there's an impact it'ss not a big impact at all, there are online gambling that they can play and there are sporting events that are still being held or will be held on close doors, I don't think gamblers are just going to give up just because of the restrictions, some of them will even find a way to gamble with their families, so they will not get rusty when casinos are open.

The gamblers will find out where they can still gamble. With the internet connection available in many places and with their mobile phone, I am sure they will found one or more gambling website, whether it's a crypto gambling website or fiat gambling website. Some gamblers already gamble on the online gambling website because I saw that many advertisements on many websites that offer people to visit on that site. So I guess it is easy for the gamblers to still playing gambling on the internet Wink

It is possible to watch live on TV as the gatherings are still not available or belong to clusters of people. But those feelings are very different while watching the venue itself.

If you are used to watching live games in the venue, it will never be different, but the reality is most of us just watch in our TV and for personally, this is nothing new, the only difference is there's no crowd or fans I can watch but the game will be played, which is the most important.

When you're watching at the live games It is very different in terms of atmosphere and emotional reactions compared to just watching in TV at home or in the office. The level of excitement is different. The most closest atmosphere and environment similar to watching games in live action, is the sports bar, where people are gathered to enjoy the same sports event and bet on their favorite teams.
Though crowds are prohibited in attending sports event upon the resume of some selected sports (mostly non- contact sports), but that's better than nothing. At least people will find leisure watching live televised of sports and do online betting.

In many of the countries, they are planning to do exactly that. The matches will be played on empty stadiums, without fans. I am in favor of this idea. If the crowd is not there, the chances of the infection spreading is near zero. And at the same time, the government as well as the public will benefit out of it. The authorities will be happy if they get the tax revenue and the public will be overjoyed to watch live action on TV.
You are right, it is also possible that this will happen and allow for many possible ways to accomplish that as long as they follow the protocols. Of course, they still have to go through tests to make sure they are safe. It is possible to watch live on TV as the gatherings are still not available or belong to clusters of people.

How can there be any sports gambling, when there is no sports events around?
There will be because the sports organizers are already planning to adopt their sporting events based on the current situation.
The proposal that I read online is they will play without fans, and that I think is the best strategy for now, and with that we can again gamble on sports.

Though major sports are not yet live, I still believe soon they'll be able to come back again.

I am well agreed to you mate. The government should impose a law together with the punishment to discipline their people and also to keep them safe from the threat of having corona virus co'z we all know that even if there is pandemic now, there are still violators who kept on hanging outside the house for nonsense reasons.

Well, we cannot say that even if there is a law, people will not violate, it's a human nature, there are some law violators, but like I said, a strict law would minimize the number of violators, once you are out, you will be at risk and you could be a risk to others.
Very well said mate. You are right even if there is a law that is strictly imposed, people are hard headed in nature they will do what they wanted to do even if their life is at risk given that if they go outside their houses, the corona virus is everywhere and we couldn't even see or know if the one we are sitting beside from a public vehicle is infected or if one of the customers inside the grocery who came across beside us is also positive. So for our safety we should abide the law and don't go outside if it is not necessary to prevent the spreading of virus.

How can there be any sports gambling, when there is no sports events around? For the last two months, almost all the sporting events were either cancelled altogether, or postponed. Some of my friends were making bets on the Belarusian Premier League. But I don't know any of the players, so I didn't participated. Anyway, we have good news. Some of the sports leagues are restarting. For example, the German Bundesliga will be resuming from this Saturday onward.

Exactly. Many peoples nowadays have been so lonely and sad because there are no sports event. They didn't all just because of tge fact that they didn't able to watch or support their favorite team but most of it become sad because of gambling. Sports event has a lot or strong connection when it comes to gambling. Many people made their bet on their teams that they believe will win in the finals of different sports. It either baskteball, volleyball, soccer, billiardand etc. Many people believe that sports aren't gonna be more exciting if there are no bettings on their teams. So they allowed to have bet in sports event.

Yet we all know the pandenic we are facing today. It is true that this pandemic is so serious and dangerous and comes to affect everything including sports games. And in that situation, a lot of sports event have already cancelled this season. Many players and as well as fans become disappointed about this. As well as the gamblers who are rooting for their respective teams to win this season. They didn't just lost their betting but tha fact that the game they played. So some just doing what they can to fill in the gaps of sports betting aren't available. Some plays dice game, online poker or casino and etc.

I'm back to say thank you! I doubted, but you helped me make the final choice and I did not regret it. Although I remained only in a small profit, I received a lot of pleasure and relaxation. Wish you all the best and a good health, man!
I'm happy to know that your experience with the test has been good for you. Sometimes we also need to try different ways and find other hobbies if we have never been able to do so and there is nothing wrong with trying to gain more knowledge. I also wish for you and everyone good health.
