Measures has been implemented and to think that there are players who got infected for sure the other sports categories will suspend until the virus will controlled but sadly we don't know on when this thing end up and for sure the sportsbook owners are feeling crazy to see this coming up.
I think sportsbook owners will be fine, just maybe because there is no football match they stop for a moment.  But in financial terms they have no loss or profit because no one has made a bet.

Gradually all of this will pass, but no one knows when it will actually pass.

Maybe it would be a good suggestion to gambling addicts for a while playing online gambling like
  • Slot machine
  • Roulette
  • Blackjack
  • Baccarat
  • Sicbo

If you are into esports, there are still some games that are ongoing, better bet on it now since you might lose the chance to do so.

So you are saying that soon there is a possibility that we cannot bet on esport too?
This isn't like sports betting that people gather to play, I guess this is purely done online and its not possible that corona virus will spread in this game.

can you please educate me on about my question.

What about online gambling? Online poker for example.

There are a lot of gamblers turning to online casinos or gambling sites.

As our government is strict about the policies to keep us safe from the virus, we are stuck in our houses and the only alternative that we can run to is obviously online casinos. There are still games that can we bet but most of them are postponed or canceled. If you are into esports, there are still some games that are ongoing, better bet on it now since you might lose the chance to do so.

Their chances to recover is much better because these athletes has a good immune system compare to other who are caught with this, I hope these athletes recover they have a career to get back, I've read one article that a football coach died from this virus but they found out he already has an underlying ailments and because of this, his immune system deteriorate.

Not all athletes do have a good immune system, also had a good immunity to disease, some of them are just fond of using steroids to get their body strengthened to play on various games. These people are more prone to disease from what I see, because they overwork themselves too much, during play, practices and exercise. Exercising our body is definitely good for us but for these athletes they're more likely to be a work for them.
So instead of a boost, well as they been trying to accomplish something through expanding their limits, they get weakened.

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 guess most of them are gambling on online casinos. They are just playing dice, slots or other games that they find interesting. Though yeah, its actually a prime time for them to reform their gambling habits and if they are addicted, stop for good.
I guess there are simulated sports games out there that they can place bets on. They are probably playing over there  Roll Eyes.

Sports gambling will be difficult since the activities linked with it was halted. The online results of each game is very important in order to gather data as well. This is very important for sports gambling, but due to corona virus pandemic we should comply those certain precautionary measures.

United State
Australia
Israel
and China

these four countries claim that they have found the Corona Vaccine , we do not know whether the news they convey is true and also we do not know what they mean by claiming this when panic is still very high.

The world really needs this so that all sporting events begin again, many big game matches are postponed because of the large spread of this virus. it's better to play online gambling for now...




Yes, right. Better play online. I also saw news about the vaccine, but it will take a lot of time to test it. It seems to me that eliminating all the consequences will take at least a year..
Corona virus has been treated with different medicines and most of them were working or even our immunity is capable of handling this virus and get us fully recovered that is why most of the affected people from China are getting recovered.So this is not a deadly disease but only we have to breakdown the transmission chain to stop the spread and cure the affected ones and let the remaining world in peace.

Coronavirus impact is way bigger than I thought on gambling as a lot of bookies closed their doors because they have no clients and they don't have a casino inside so they could keep their betters. Also the laws in so many countries were to shutdown a lot of stores including betting houses.

For now only online casinos are working normally as people are kinda desperate to trow money into gambling so they chose casinos. Besides this , its hard for me to find out how many millions of $ are they losing right now.

It is really hard for sports betters to know that every sports events had been cancelled and postponed like NBA due to the pandemic of corona virus, that is why since most of us are staying inside of our houses the best alternative way for sports better to do is to play in online casinos or maybe play video games like NBA 2k
The current situation corona virus was affect the many peoples so current economy was down in entire world.  May be this is the best time to play in home, but everyone was human only top traders are stop the current gambling. Many waiting for the world expo 2020 at the same time peoples are running the current virus issue, so this is not a right time to concentrate sports gambling. I think many other gamblings are active in current traffic.

This thing is going to get a lot worse if the officials don't take measures. They need to lock the country down immediately.

Nobody should get of their homes unless it is an emergency. It will be a lot worse than what it already is otherwise.
Very true. With the deaths rising up in numbers and touching the peak today (i.e 325 in Spain and 627 in Italy) I believe there would be more panic in upcoming days in the areas which are least affected as well. With the current numbers I believe there would be severe measures undergone to prevent the spreading of virus to higher numbers and to people with lower immune power. I don't think it would be safer to play gambling right at the moment when you are in need of fiat for emergency purposes.

If people tend to play in physical casinos, there are higher chances the virus would spread to other individuals as well and it might cause further distress among everyone.



...snip...

The gamblers would probably move onto roulette, dice, blackjack and similar kind of games. If gamblers tend to continue the same during these adverse conditions, it's quite evident that they are risking their money for fun. Casinos have closed at some of the popular places to prevent public gathering.

There are no sports matches, so I think gambling addicts can switch to other gambling and that is a reasonable choice for them. If they dont like to bet other than sports, stop for a while until the virus pandemic is resolved and use the time to gather with your beloved family.

The point is the lockdown is currently being carried out in almost every corner of the world I think will not limit gambling addicts to bet and gambling will continue even if there are no sports matches.

For Sports, because of the crowds of every sport. Then it cannot be forced for a match, and all must obey the rules in the country concerned.

And as you said, if you want to gamble then it's better to gamble online. And fill in lots more time for a new atmosphere in every gambling game.

Gambling on casinos is not an option, many casinos are now closing because of the Pandemic and I don't think they will become a reformed gamblers just because of the crisis, when the crisis is ended they will likely go back, their two best alternatives are playing online games and playing casinos online, I'm sure they will find gambling online their best option because they are familiar on it.

It surely impacts so much because of the situation right now all sort of sports that have a gathering audience need to be suspended in the times like these but I heard that one gambling site the BOVADA have offer weather bets on their sites, for example of this is what would be the possible temperature on a certain place and people would surely notice this a little but BOVADA have recently stop this for some reason,

But the idea's like this would surely keep some gambling sites to be alive and going on, even without sports betting and some have put their self in political bettings instead and some would take their moment on reality shows well I think some sportsbooks are thinking ideas on how they can ease their time with the recent outbreak that we had.

There are two possibilities that will occur, when sports betting for now no longer exists. First, maybe gamblers will rest for a while and wait for updates related to this virus. Second is maybe they will play gambling, but not for sports but for other gambling games. which can be done online.

It has many impacts on the sports industry and will have a lot of loses.
Everyone focuses on the gambling side of it and I can understand it since we are in gambling discussion part of bitcointalk. However, we are forgetting how much it is affecting the economy of the teams as well, these are huge companies as well, we see them as sports teams but they are actually big companies that deal with hundreds of millions of dollars.
Yes agree, if we think about the teams and other events, there are many profits to lose since all of it are cancelled because of COVID-19. Major events, especially on eSports that have a huge prize, is already cancelled and players will not be able to compete, therefore, no payment for them this year. There are also major companies that invested or sponsored that specific event and no promotions will occur.
A coffee shop buys coffee and sells it, a team buys players uses them and maybe even sell them, players are the products of those companies. Now that there is no games, no viewers, no tv rights, no merchandise, basically no income at all and they probably still have insane amount of cost just to keep it going, they will be losing money. I don't know how much THAT will affect the teams, that seems like the biggest thing here.
Not only in the sports industry, the artist of entertainments also experiences that kind of situation since they're always promoting a product.
