big majority of good casinos are on quarantine now till the april so I'm waiting until they open

No choice friend, we have to wait, and i think this is good for us since we will not be able to spend our money, instead we can allocate this on our basic needs to survive this crisis, I've been consistently betting in sports, but since no sports available for now, I can say I'll be able to save money.

Very true words! and we really have no choice, but lets see something good here: we save our money, nature rests from us, we spend a lot (even more than lot) time with loved ones.

To be honest, I did not expect this virus to become a worldwide pandemic. This is very scary what is happening now. And I can’t even imagine how all sectors of life will be able to recover from such a blow.

It seems to me now no one even makes forecasts, everyone says that everything is frozen for an indefinite time, right..?

I think this is the time when people will remain alone with themselves and I hope they will have something to do during the period while everything is in quarantine and gambling as well.

The only thing I can say is that it’s difficult for me now to combine online work, online education, a small child and everyday things. There is not enough time in days. But I think those who do not have children really have more time and they can get bored. I hope they do not get into strange addictions because of this.

I hope you and others refrain from excessive gambling while staying at home during these difficult times of constraint because of the coronavirus pandemic. My fears about people who never gambled before (and those that may have done so but within affordable limits) remain the same - I hope there will not be a wave of gambling addicts created as a result of people staying at home in front of their PCs for long periods of time trying to keep themselves occupied.

Even with all sports betting cancelled people can go on to online casinos to bet on slot machines, card games and other games. I hope people do not start placing excessive amounts of bets just to start passing the time because there is a real risk of addiction during the periods people are spending more time at home as a result of the coronavirus.

What exactly do you want people do in this stay at home policy by the world government, this trying time will make many gambling addict's. This has be my worries during the banned movement in our country. Few days ago, I got into gambling which caught me unaware with my stakes. A whooping sum of #30,000 (NGN) was lost in the process, this fund wasn't meant for that purpose (gambling) but for the family upkeep. Sincerely speaking, this was my very first time to experience partial addiction ( if there is anything like that) and I regretted my actions after the ugly incident happened.

Bet you that; the numbers of addiction in gambling will definitely increase beyond our imagination after this pandemic come to an end. My fears still remain that, I be able to cope with this policy of stay at home and not be an addict at the end.

Almost all sports branches stopped due to coronavirus, international flights were restricted. Coronavirus becomes easier to spread due to the spectators, all sports should wait for a while except for e-sports, we are having a hard time, i wish the best of everything.

No, esports have it rough too. I don't know why people think that if it is an esports it will always be online. There are a lot of tournaments being done on Lan, and online tournaments are not that done particularly since there are also those people that still do (hack) in the tournaments. A lot of esports majors and minors are cancelled, delayed and postponed too, not just sports.

Stay at home due to the pandemic has kept us away from many things and that includes gambling. Online casinos are the best option for players while normality is recovering. Keep safe!

For now, if you really can't stop yourself from gambling then gambling online is the best choice.

With this, the revenue of online gambling sites will surely rise and at the same time it keeps the gamblers from getting the virus as they aren't going outside just to gamble as long as they have internet connection and a smartphone / computer. Lets keep safe broski. This will be over in Q2-Q3 as my prediction and I hope it will

Basically the impact of coronavirus will be heavily felt and many will be positive while some will be negative. But base on the thread; the impact of coronavirus will be positive to the gambling industry as the cure of coronavirus is be search for. Online casinos will be heavily impact positively than the traditional gambling platforms because the government have ban the movement of citizens to avoid the spreading of the covid-19. In my resident country, almost all the gambling centres have been shutdown and only the online casinos are been use through the internet for those who still intend to gamble, this is the only means to gamble now till the revoke of government orders.

As for me it really keeps me away because there is no sports to gambling, I just usually bet at home but since sports are also prohibited at this situation, this is also a touch times for us sports bettor, of course we can try different games but for sports bettors, it's not something as entertaining as sports betting and it does not challenges us.

There are still some games that are going on say 5-6 football matches daily but I wouldn't recommend betting on it unless you have knowledge. Like yesterday there was some friendlies in Sweden and both teams have played like in never (one last played in 2008 Grin

) and I won my small bet.

There are lot of eSport games going on if you are interested in that. Also there is Table Tennis Cup and Volleyball matches in Russia. That's what is going on right now.

We don't need to force ourselves to bet in sports if we don't know the sport, we have no advantage on that and we will just lose.

The reason why we choose sports betting as our game is because we are confident that we can win knowing that we are familiar with the league and that help us to increase our chance of winning.

The coronavirus had already postponed sports events and its for good cause but lockdown is juts going to kill working class family. With nothing to eat, gambling is the last thing in mind for those smaller guys and getting a virus isn't their concern nor whatever happen to sports gambling. Its what food to put on their tables is going to matter this days and when desperation kicks, there will be killings.

Apart from the fact that a lot of leagues and competitions are postponed we should not forget the fact that this might have a great impact on athletes' health.
They are getting out of form during this period of stagnant sport activity. As a result, they might be more prone to injuries after they start again - with intense pace in order to cover the lost time.

Yes postponement period due to the virus might affect their health. But as a player I think they have exercising equipment in their home so during the quarantine period they can do their exercise. They can use this time wisely. In that case they will be healthy. As a player I think they know what must be maintained. In addition, they can get a regular 8 hours sleep.

Sports betting gambling is currently on hold as sports activities in top flight leagues have been postponed till further notice. Before the Coronavirus breakout, I used to placed bets every weekend while watching some interesting weekend games. Now, Its just my same boring weekend routine. I can't wait for the action to resume soon. I'm not a huge fan of betting on other games outside of sport events (dice, blackjack and others).

if i am to choose?yeah i want to become a reformed gambler but the problem is i am not a total gambler so i need nothing to be reformed lol.

but for the addicted gamblers?better to take this opportunity to be with your family and make your best days to stop addiction.
this is once in a lifetime chance because casinos are being closed by governments so we cannot do anything but to accept.

dont try online gambling for now instead to functional things in life for a mean time.

Its obvious already that they did it to prevent further transmission of virus and it is really for the good of the players and the country as a whole.

There are no other ways to prevent the virus from spreading rather than lockdown and TBH, lockdown can just lessen the number of cases but it can help to decrease the spread of the virus in the long run. There are other people who are doing bad things right now just to have money to eat but luckily it is not the case here in our place. There is a lockdown but people were given relief goods to support their daily needs as the lockdown has been implemented.

Not only on the current ESL pro but also in Dec 17th - Dec 22nd 2019 ESL which Vitality won that tourney. They might be top #10 at the moment but they are a strong team.

I think they might even win the series.

They just lost yesterday to Astralis and I do understand that since it is Astralis, one of the best teams in the league right now. They are leading the score in this league and followed by other teams including Na'Vi and Team Vitality. I hope this will be a good tournament for the rookie, this is his first tournament, hope it would really improve the team as a whole and not just focus on their superstar, Zywoo.
