Sports betting has come to a complete halt now, because hardly any matches are going on due to the COVID 19 outbreak. I used to make bets in cricket, football and boxing, but for the last 2-3 weeks, almost all the matches have been either postponed or cancelled. And even worse, here in India the government has declared a 21-day lockdown and as a result we can't even get out of our houses now.

Sports betting all over the world are on hold now, the effect of COVID-19 is massive, the sports betting world can only wait what's going to happen while the world is racing to find a cure,unless this virus is contained or we find a cure for it, there will be no sports betting for now.

Cure is the first step so everything will be back to normal, making the vaccine will also take time so at least we can get some news saying that the vaccine was already been found and our government are on the process of reproducing the vaccine, but for now, we have not heard anything like this year.

So no option for now, stay at home and wait.

I think lockdown is practiced all over the world because if it is not prevented that way more and more people who are infected with falling deaths will increase this pandemic is scary especially since we have to stay at home for weeks.

Only casino and dice bets that I still run at this time even though gambling bets are a favorite but we can't do anything to do that so I will try gambling which is still running at this time the casino might be a challenge for us to implement the strategy.

That is the thing. People are surely focussing to gather things and the food they needed for months of quarantine in their houses. I don't think they would even think of their gambling activities right now. I can say that because of the pandemic, casinos and other gambling places are closed and people here don't really think of gambling but thinking how long will be the quarantine to last.

Also they will focus to find side income, in the quarantine day there will be some people who will not have an income especially for day laborer, they didn't have any income so as they will look for first a place to be use as an income and gambling is not suitable to be choosen. Gambling is more prefere for those who have intention to wasting their money, you just need at least 5% to win when you play gambling. So there is no choice for those people, they need side income and forgot gambling for a while.

I don't think they should focus on finding a side income right now since the government is finding a way to give their salaries to them or the 13th-month pay to them so they can rest easy in their houses. The problem here is those people that are unemployed and those people that are homeless. If gambling is your problem with this pandemic, you should consider yourself lucky.

If you are just relying on governments help then there's nothing gonna happen to you and imagine how big the numbers of family they needed to help and what if when your turn come and there's nothing left due to lack of supply? you will strive to hunger in that matters that's why you need to find a side job and if you are in big trouble interms on financially better not to gamble at this moment since we don't know on when this pandemic end and it will affect us in long term if this will not be controlled or totally eliminated.

Well, I am not but they are. What can someone possibly do in a place specifically a barracks for a side job? They can't even eat well, their only entertainment is themselves in there and they are stuck there for weeks. Without the early announcement of the government of releasing the 13th-month pay they should be starving in there by now, with that they can stay longer there. You may be sitting in your house comfortably right now but I know a lot of people that are stuck in a place where they have almost nothing but themselves. Their only source of food is their salary they are saving, a pit of water, luckily with fish in it and they are sharing it with others. Just imagine how bad it is if you will still sell those fish so you could just earn money there.

With the casino's close and cancelled sports. It makes me realize that a lot of employees are not working, and they will not be paid. I hope the companies are doing something for their employees. It will be fine for those who have have safety nets and those people who can stock groceries they needed for months. But how about the employees who don't?

Casino's should support their employees, it will take a toll to their economic status but during this pandemic, its their responsibility. Read this article about how Nba teams and players help their stadium workers during this lockdown.

This virus has effected all sports around the world along with the sportsbooks however I can see something new come out of this and that is virtual sports that we can bet on. There are some virtual sports right now like horse racing, greyhound racing and cock fighting, I think this can open up the doors for more virtual sports which I think we'll start to see in the future. Just imagine seeing a virtual football game and being able to bet on it.

Yes, many traditional casinos and gambling site has been cancelled their games or their operations due to the lockdown and it I think it opens the new opportunity to the online casinos, because if people wanted to gamble but can't go out in their houses there will be an online gambling site for them, I think they are earning a lot now since there will be a lot of players online now.

We can also assumed that online gambling sites are making good money because of the recent pandemic. Remember that those who have gambled a lot in a traditional based casino I would say is around 30 and higher age bracket. So majority are not that highly inclined to sit in their table with a computer. They might be having a hard time navigating around online casino websites. So we can't say if casino's profit did increase unless they published their reports which I doubt they will do.

it's not too difficult to understand web sites for gambling, and I guess that they will be easy to adapt.
I think online gambling sites have increased revenue because the average online player is increasing every day.
I have tried to browse several sites and it is accurate.

Probably but we can't really be sure with that, maybe those gambling sites like dice sites because people can't gamble in sports now, so some gamblers just stick with playing dice games, and we know in dice games, money are instant, either you loss or win but they'll win most of the time due to the house edge. This is a good time also for some gamblers to finally know about crypto online gambling, and hopefully they'll find it easy to use.

I think virtual horse racing has been existing even before the covid19 comes out except the two.

In what casino specifically you're betting with those? I've seen the virtual horse racing before with a new site two years ago but AFAIK they've closed eventually.

It affected the whole gambling industry big time. Traditiona casinos, sport events had closed down temporarily and cancelled. Everything has been affected by the virus businesses, travel, the market almost everything. The number of affected indivudual is increasing in aome countries, let's just hope that this would end sooner than we think and for everything to go back to normal.

The effect on the gambling world of this virus will be enormous, in my country casinos were already ordered to close their doors and I can see this happening all over the world, many people also like to bet on sports and for the most part that is not possible anymore, so the only alternative left for those that want to gamble is to do it online but I suppose there is even a decrease in the activity of online casinos as people prioritize other things like buying supplies in the case of an even greater emergency.

Corona has really shattered the gambling economy since people are unable to enjoy casinos and bet on sports because no sports are being held anywhere in the world. We common people are simply ordered to remain at homes and people have right now many other preferences than gambling.

Unfortunately this was inevitable, this virus is very dangerous and now the effects not only can be felt in the health of those that have been infected but now also the economy is suffering, in my country many restaurants are on the brink of bankruptcy and this is because people do not really want to spend money there not only because of the virus but also because they are trying to save every penny and it is likely the gambling industry is also going to be severely affected by the economic crisis that is coming.

I'm sure covid-19 have a huge impact on sportsbook as the operators or the owners are forced to stop or postponed as the sports or games are being cancelled or postponed due to covid-19. Some will have less time spent on gambling because of having a hard time to buy bitcoin using fiat especially if using bank accounts are not available to buy bitcoin. Also less money will be spent on gambling as they are focus on other things because of the quarantine but for those who have enough bitcoin and have enough fiat money to survive then he/she will be able to gamble but in my opinion it is much better if you keep it in case you run out of fiat money.

Those who are also living to this kind of activities they will use their crypto to continue playing not even there's a Corona virus, this people who are leaning to this industry are not cared if how things might turned out the important is they will try their luck if they'll able to win and earn something from this activities.

The effects of covid-19 will actually have positive impact on the gambling platforms and will eventually increase her revenue generation this trying times on covid-19.

This needs to be confirm, I haven't read an article yet stating the same thing.

What we are doing now is just speculating that since physical casinos are close, they are now shifting to online casinos, but what about their source of income, if its affected then eventually they have will not gamble as there is a shortage of income or funds.

That is the thing. People are surely focussing to gather things and the food they needed for months of quarantine in their houses. I don't think they would even think of their gambling activities right now.
