If you are going to bet online on matches, it is not really a problem. However, if you are playing with large amounts of poker it is very annoying if the connection is lost or not stable. Not much to do about it. or use a hotspot as a phone as a backup.

If from the beginning you have already spot it on that you have an internet connection, why would you play with large amounts? As a gambler, your concern is also lying on it and your decision at the beginning will also come out that you're liable if something bad comes out as an output.
Because if you have already experienced trouble in your connection and you've noticed and aware of it yet you continued, you're at fault.

Actually somewhat of an underrated topic.

With the advent of live games that require player input such as Crash, this has become an increasingly prevalent issue.

I've personally lagged because of a crappy internet connection which led to losses a few times on Bustabit. But this is the risk that you run when you are playing on these sites.

Yeah, crash game requires good internet connection too as you need timing to win if you loss your connection, that's an automatic loss, I guess this is one of the best example and personally I tried playing crash game few times and I know lots of bettors fall in love with this kind of game.

Quote

The T&Cs of each site protects the site owners from becoming liable in these events - and there is really no recourse for you if this does happen to you unfortunately.

Internet connectivity issue mostly affect only the bettors side, it's our fault so they'll never be liable.

Internet connectivity used to be an issue with sports betting and casinos. This happens with sports betting when we go for live betting. With live betting the odds keeps varying, so the bet won't get confirmed at times. With casinos we experience lag, and this lag sometimes looks like a cause for the loss. In reality the result gets delayed and at times when we're in losing streak it makes us get disturbed.

In my opinion, not only online gambling requires a stable internet connection, but all of our activities that are carried out online require a stable
internet connection. So internet connectivity is now an important thing that must be considered in our lives, choose a provider that does provide
a good internet connection. Even though I have never experienced a loss when playing gambling because of a bad internet connection, still annoying
if when playing gambling our internet connection is bad. Usually I postpone my wish to play gambling, if I know the internet connection at home is bad.

Phone hotspot is a good idea to get back online quickly, unfortunately we can have similar problems with the internet there too. The biggest problem I have with the issue is that internet provider is not liable for these issue, in his ads I always see how great and fast the internet is, but once there are issues it is not his fault anymore. I tried to get some money back I lost due to a drop in the internet, but there was no chance. The contract says it's a flat internet line, which should be working 24/7. And if there are some issues then atleast there should be a slow internet connection. But being completely offline is pretty hard.

Have you guys experienced any loss/win out of the issue with internet connectivity. I've mentioned about wins/losses, but mostly people get affected negatively when there is connectivity issues. I personally believe that the internet connection is also a reason with our gambling wins. Here it is about casino games and not sports betting.

Most of the time I gamble using the mobile device. The connectivity speed varies between locations and I've encountered with the rolls taking more time as well as the the rollers moving within the bar with sudden visibility. When I check the provably fair functioning, it does right. But, my mind has a thinking our loss is due to the internet connection.

Does any of you have similar experience or thinking.

Internet connectivity is not altering your win or lose in anyway, when you press roll or bet st that time you git internet then that is the end if the story there, the outcome is solely based on the scripts not by the data speed but you may feel like losing more when the network is slow its simply because of the loading screen which induce our minds to think in that way.

We can say that, but even if we use optical fiber, which is more stable, the connection can sometimes get disturbed because of many things, such as the cable is loose. ~

The cable may not be sealed, but this does not affect the signal loss. In addition to two polyethylene sheaths and Kevlar protective braid optical fiber is protected along the entire length of the acrylic sheath, which protects it from sunlight, the fibers themselves are in a hydrophobic filler that protects them from water and welding sites are protected by polyethylene sleeves. This completely eliminates the loss of signal. The speed of signal transmission is limited only by your tariff plan and terminal equipment. In addition, all base stations of mobile communications are connected to each other into one network using optical fibers and communication between the continents is organized by fiber-optic cables, so it is simply inappropriate to compare them with mobile communications.

Maybe that is the arrangement of internet connections using fiber optic, which can be applied to the big city. But I am afraid that not all countries will have that set up like in the big city, although they say that is a standard thing that their company used. I do not know about that, but I think in all countries, many countries still do not have a good internet connection or have a stable connection to make trouble for the customer. Maybe the tariff plan will be the thing that will affect to the customer.

Yes, the internet is very influential when betting and it will be very annoying if the internet connection is lost, and when reconnected the bet fails or causes losses, and will become emotional because the bet we choose has a winning feeling.
choosing the right time and supported by a good internet connection is the right and comfortable choice when betting.

Internet is influential when using the internet,,, not internet is influential when betting. I think you guys are all just making a big deal out of this,,, sorry but fast or slow does not change my emotions:)

The only thing I can think of is live betting, which even I very rarely try because firstly of my not-so-good internet, and second because I know my own secondary connection makes it even harder.

No, you don't get the most important point, in some games it's very important, actually it's mostly important in sports betting especially if you are doing a live betting where you are looking for an opportunity to bet and just like trading you are looking for great timing but with bad internet, that might ruin your plan.

Few times, i have experienced the same problem. I started a crash game and i was unable to stop it because of slow/no internet. This caused my bet to be lost.
Now i only play gambling when i know that my internet is stable so i don't have to bear this unfortunate loss.

We are just taking the slow internet as the reason why we lose but our bets are pre-generated under the fairness system of the said site.

The slow internet makes the display laggy and because of that, we think that's the reason we lose but the result will be the same even there's no disconnection or slow connectivity happened while we bet.

But it's an old classic problem nowadays that someone still experiences a high ping while playing in gambling sites. It doesn't need much bandwidth to compare to online games or a standalone app.

I have experienced it once and it made me feel really upset because I didn't expect that I would lose in gambling that time just because of the slow internet connection. It really made me feel angry that I even blamed the internet provider. From then on, I learned to check the internet connection speed first before betting. We can't deny the fact that the internet is a major necessity that we should be mindful of before we bet.

Another annoying thing is that often when we check at the start it's good but in the middle, it's bad 'lol'...
I also understand that home internet should not be overpriced. if we want high speed we have to add even more costs.

That's what we have to ensure especially if we are putting a serious amount in gambling, we should not let our internet connection affect our game and bring bad results. If we can afford to spend at least $100 a week in gambling, I'm sure we can afford to spend $50 to $100 a month for internet connectivity, I think that could already give us a higher plan and a stable internet connectivity.

Technically, in terms of provably fair, slow internet issues don't affect everyone's winning or losing probability rate. There is no way a slow connection can affect those algorithms and random hashes.

The problem with these slow internet connection is the delays and lags that leads to some gamblers to put wrong or mistakenly bet since they thought it wasn't pushed through or mistakenly hit that 100% bet or whatever.

As always, we don't want that to happen as not just it can lead to losses but it destroys the entertainment why we do gambling. Fortunately, I never experienced that before so I hope it won't happen to me as casinos will surely not take that as a reason if ever we try to contest it in an event of mistakenly placing a decent bet.

Nothing is great or good experience when you do have lagging or choppy internet it would really be creating lots of errors when it comes to pressing some buttons which you do thought that you had
already pressed that one but you missed out actually due to lagg and that really sucks big time.

When it comes to chances or odds of winning then internet connectivity has nothing to do with that, so simply its a no thing or not a valid thing for you to blame on.

Well, you have a point there --we should check first our internet connectivity if it is on the stable status or perhaps do some internet speedtest that even give 10 Mbps will be fine, but if you are using your phone and accessing gambling website not using Wifi but instead it on mobile data, that is will perhaps have a chance that your internet connection will corrupt sometimes. I do not gamble anywhere, I gamble at home when I was on my PC, it will consider if you will visit a gaming site while on travel, but placing a bet is too risky.

This is actually very insightful specially when you work as a gambler. There would be moments that some of my coworkers experience this when they are hosting a cock-fighting event. They heavily rely on data usage on their mobile phones because the places where the event is happening does not have a good coverage of Wi-Fi connection. They did not expect to lose so much profit by not having Internet and it really brought their business down by experiencing that. As a gambler or even an event host that provides gambling opportunities, they should always be ready with back ups because some of the events can happen in far places and this situation is one thing that we have experience because of Internet connectivity.

Its also another thing when waiting for the final minutes before betting on a match. You should always bet when you have the opportunity because betting before closing time is one of the thing most bettors avoid specially when they know a match is a sure win for them.
