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?

Still gambling. The pandemic can't really stop gamblers since we people will still find ways to gamble. If people will not be doing physical gamblings, they would be gambling online.

Quote from: JollyGood on March 18, 2020, 09:55:03 PM

Are some giving up and trying to become reformed gamblers?

It is not that easy. You might be able to contain yourself in your house for a month but that would not stop gamblers from gambling.

Right now, no. Casinos are closed because of the pandemic.

Quote from: JollyGood on March 18, 2020, 09:55:03 PM

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

Right now, some esports bets. Doesn't mean sports betting are not available, they will stop on betting. They still do online bettings like poker and maybe other live bettings.

Sports Gamblers would either quit now or simply look for the alternatives for their cravings.

I have no plans of quitting, i know I can do my usual thing soon as things will be better over time.
Eventually the vaccine will be release and everyone can go out from quarantine.

There is nothing that working like sportbetting though, has the provably fair technology even exist in the racing games on casinos?

This one I have no idea as I am not playing racing games.

Quote from: cabron on March 19, 2020, 02:15:51 AM

The only reason why I bet on sports games is because I followed the athletes. My option is to just play dice and blackjack21, I guess it will work to kill time.

Same here, we are having fun while we are betting and because we know the athletes, we feel we have the advantage and we will have a chance to win in the long run, and even though we can't prove it but the fact that we know the game and we re optimistic, this is the reason why we are challenge.

Gambling is the only thing that can bring happiness to most of the elder people and we have nothing to do but to let them enjoy their lives. So based on my observation, it is not bad to gamble when you have money to spend for. But the only essential here are the lives of the elder people who are more prone to the virus and their immune system is not enough to fight the virus. Let us remind them to stop gambling for the mean time and be patient until the Covid-19 is eliminated. Although we don't have the exact time when the vaccine will be discovered but let me assure you that it will happen in a mean time. Stopped gambling for now and spend your money to necessary things.

Interestingly there are some games still going on, why they are doing it on face of death I will never know, even if players do not die from it, they could get infected and than infect others, this is a very big problem right now and nobody should take it lightly. Even esports events are getting cancelled nowadays so I do not understand why phsyical contact games are still around, most of the major ones are already cancelled it, so should the other ones as well, I do not understand why they haven't.

In any case, we could simply just wait, wait around and eventually sportsbooks will come back, most of the time even summers are filled with games so many people gamble I can understand that but for now just wait around and not gamble, if you are addicted it is a great time to stop, if you are not addicted surely you can wait couple of months.

Officials in Turkey for a long time all sports, they insisted played without spectators. But as things continue to get worse, they have temporarily postponed all competitions starting this week. All athletes put pressure on social media to postpone the competitions. Even Trabzonspor football player Obi Mikel has terminated his contract due to the decision to continue the matches. We don't live in normal times right now, and I think the best decision is to keep people in their homes. The whole society.

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.

They will surely regret their actions if one of them will be badly hit by this virus. remorse is always at the end when something goes wrong. they should respect that others will be affected by their hard headedness. Anyway, they should understand that not only sports are being cancelled but almost all mass gatherings around the globe. They are not alone in this dilemma. They should think that others have no jobs and no money to buy food, so their problem of not holding their sports can be considered a luxury in these times.

indeed the sports match is stopped because of this virus maybe you can try other alternatives such as blackjack, dice, crash game or poker, whatever it is that makes you comfortable, if you don't like the game, you are forced to wait for the plague garbage to die.
but I think they will do the game until the sport is reopened.

I can't say that I am sure that they are giving up because you can still go for online casinos.

Quote from: JollyGood on March 18, 2020, 09:55:03 PM

Casinos are absolutely affected by the pandemic because they gather a huge amount of people they are mostly closed right now to prevent the further spread.

Quote from: JollyGood on March 18, 2020, 09:55:03 PM

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

You can do online casino, but if it is not in your liking then you might as well distract yourself with other things such as reading book, watching tv series or what not. This situation is a very good oppurtunity for gamblers to reform or atleast reduce their addiction.

Unfortunately, I also do not see alternatives to the types of gambling that were before. I like to play live, online does not cause me so many emotions. But if you look for positive moments, then now is the time when you can do many other things - education, reading books, talking with loved ones etc.

For hardcore football fans there is still the Australian league, one can bet on those. They are played behind closed doors though.
There seem to be many football friendly matches scheduled for tomorrow, mostly involving Scandinavian teams. But overall, it is not the best time to be a sports gambler.

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..

1. Probably some of them are finding alternatives for them to gamble.
2. Probably some of them stopped and focused on their family and their needs as they are experiencing this shitty virus.

Quote from: JollyGood on March 18, 2020, 09:55:03 PM

For sure, most of the casinos right now all over the world are closed already because of the virus. Most of the countries right now are already affected by this stupid virus. Maybe if there are some countries who aren't affected right now and has a casino then probably they are still operating until this time.

Quote from: JollyGood on March 18, 2020, 09:55:03 PM

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

For me, none. Instead of finding an alternative way to bet, it would be better if they will just stay in their house and spend time to their love ones. Watch TV with them or anything that can make them happy as long as they will not gamble. For sure, their health is their priority right now.

On the other hand, if they are just addicted into gambling and they really want to gamble then online sites probably the one they are switching now.

House gambling,

, me and my friends and families are playing poker, just to pass some time because we are already in a lock-down, curfews are implemented here. But the money involved is not that huge, it's only friendly games, instead of doing nothing.

But yes, the only options for us is go online, dice, slots etc.

Very nice idea with house gambling. I'll take a note! We like to play board games.. Agricola is our fav one.

I saw the news that if casinos in US do not open within 8 weeks, the budget will lose 21 billion profits. And this is only America and only gambling. If you take the full impact of coronavirus on the global economy, you can be horrified.

I think the most thing of the gamblers do as of now is betting and playing on online casino. There are many gambling sites that is not associated with sports or e-sports. So I think, those gambling games like poker, blackjack, dice, roulette are the majority. Gamblers don't easily give up and they will have another way to play gambling and earn money.

It has a great impact on sports betting as a lot of events are being postponed.This also impacts the sport section of online casinos leaving gamblers with only a few options to bet on.It does not have an impact in slots and other casino games as they don’t pose any risk to our health.

Definitely because only sports are being suspended, it could take time so that means we have to wait a little longer now.

There is no negative impact on majority of the gamblers since most of us are losing in sports betting but on sportsbook, they are losing a good amount of money because of the suspension on sports, therefore casinos now should try to add more games and does not only focus on sports betting so they can still operate with profit.

The virus will spread due to the obvious reason and there is no cure for this pandemic yet. If the whole process continues like this, I guess the cancelled sports will be more than the expected. The few more months and the online gambling industry will grow like never it has been before.

Perhaps, we will see a long time to break in the sports so that impact with the gambling industry. We cannot do anything except follow what is happening because they don't want to see their player gets infected so I think that is the step that really needed to prevent the virus spreads. I agree with you, and I am sure that after the vaccine can get found, and many people will be cured, the sports game will continue, and it will grow bigger than before. We need to be patient and follow what the government suggest against the virus, including all people who are involved in the sports industry.

Even Esports events are also cancelled Dota 2 the largest and most popular MOBA game just announced that the upcoming major wont be happening. I guess for me, this would become a break for gambling games for the moment.
Hopefully the vaccines gets approved, also i've seen some news that japans medicinal tablet is effective in fighting the virus.

I guess these virus would only take a month max, so everything would be back to normal.

For the first time ever this is the most intriguing pandemic than what usually happens in the past. Most big or small events and establishments are cancelled/closing due to the NCOV that forces everyone to stay at home because it is dangerous to go outside. I guess we could just play gambling games in our own house together with the family. I hope this virus thing will only last a month because it's affecting everything of our daily lives.

Oceat we can play many online games, gambling and all other games too. We can bet on sports, and nobody can say how long this will
last. Some championships are postponed for next year, even Olympic games are in question.
I play dices and other simple gambling games, with 1 satoshi bet's, just for fun. Not often, when I have free time. Anyone can find
a nice gambling game for crypto-currencies, there are many of them. Now when people are closed they will be more interested in
online gambling.

There are really alternatives for those people who do like play yet they can search and able to online.The thing here is that they differ on games that offered.
Most sportsbetting site now is shutdown or closed due to current pandemic and we know that not all gamblers on this field would really like to bet on
luck or casino type of games so its a matter of preference or interest to those people.Impact is indeed big not only on gambling industry but also in others as well.
