For sure casinos in Las Vegas are now closed because of the lockdown, but I'm sure that the gamblers there are finding ways in order to spend their money. I know that they are also aware to online gambling sites and casinos and they are using it in order to kill their boredom. Those gambling addicts will find ways in order to gamble their money because it is now became their lifestyle.

What will most gambling addicts do when they can no longer gamble at casinos, and what do you think they'll do when the casinos reopen in several months from now? Will most of them be finally cured of their gambling addiction, or will most of them return to their old ways?

Possibly many gambling addicts will switch to online casinos to have their fun or crushing on their addiction as normal. Many have already started making statements on how they have lost to gambling platform. Some have used their funds which was kept for their sustainace and that of their family. Addiction is addiction and may stay for a decade before it can be control. Many gambling addicts will regret their staying at home due to this pandemic that forces the government to banned movement to enforce stay at home policy.
There are a lot of things that a gambler can do because even today while the virus is still spreading and some of the rules released by the government is to have a home quarantine and most of the gambler today will choice the online gambling or the e-gambling because it is more convenient and easier because today there are a lot of gambling website supporting the use of bitcoin as their payment method and it is good because it is secured and less hassle just you need is sending the funds to the designated and then it is already done you can now play all the games you want that they offer.

Maybe some of them are spending their time with their family and they've stopped gambling for the moment and focused right now on their family.
Even though there are some who temporarily stopped gambling because of the virus, there are some who are still gambling online.
Maybe there are some gamblers out there who are spending their time playing online games and some are just sleeping and eating the whole day
.
Different gamblers have different things that they are doing right now.

I have this in my mind upon reading the subject of the OP, is it a sort of a rehab for gambling addicts that usually play in casinos when there is still not pandemics yet?
Well, it is a big win for us to try to invite them playing online gambling through cryptocurrency but it somehow gives us the feeling of guilt that we have taken away the free rehabilitation for them to just stay indoors and stay with their family.
Any way, going back to the topic, I think the gambling addicts are now trying to find a way on how they can still play casinos, so we have decision, would we teach them or not, it is upon us but for me, I think I let them figure it out for themselves.

As long as they have internet and basic surfing knowledge they can/will gamble as before but only casinos seems operating at the moment since sport events are getting cancelled and postponed due to the corona.Casino game lovers will always win maybe not the money but the enjoyment.
The chance for the esports to shine maybe?
Most of the majors and minors are usually done on LAN and right now with the pandemic that is happening, tournaments are cancelled, postponed and delayed. No idea about those minors and majors being played online but right now, that is the only place you can do sports betting. Other than that? I guess Dice games and other popular games.
eSports betting was beginning to become established but the eSports community are in the same problem as other actual sports. Online play has less weight due to latency and connectivity issues which is why betting on LAN matches were more popular. I highly doubt there's gonna be gamblers that are going to throw money on online matches where connection might be the reason you loose money. A few years ago in FPS circles, people would bet on league matches online then DDoS the teams they had stakes against so it wouldn't surprise me to see it happen again.
Yes, that is so true.
My friend told me about this but the term DDoS is not the term he is using. This is possible especially for those tournaments that are huge and done online though I hope this will not happen with the current ESL Pro League 11 that is happening right now since I do have a lot of bets on it. Been quite disappointed with the match between Team Liquid and Swole Patrol though.

Gamblers who missed casinos are probably spending their time gambling online. Online casinos and e-sports are their best options as of now. After this pandemic has stabilized, we can go back to our previous hobbies. With the government's approval, gamblers can go back to casinos, and sport can resume, and we can go back betting. But right now, the only thing we can do is to stay at home.
After this crisis, some gamblers will probably go back to physical casinos days or weeks after they are back in business. I don't think that this long break will enable addicts to quit their addiction because it will make them more eager to gamble. I'm sure that after this, they will be going back to their previous vices.

I think as of now, as casino gambling buildings are closed now, they are at their home, doing some stuffs and some are doing online gambling, that is the best option that they may do especially if they are gamblers. There are so many online gambling that they may try at home, that is more convenient than casino gambling because they can still play even they are eating, lying or anything. They are more comfortable while playing because they are at their home.
If this virus has been killed and some casino gambling begins to open, for sure the casino gambling will be crowded because of being missed by many gamblers, of course playing online gambling and real life gambling is such a different thing, it is more exciting while playing real life gambling compared to online gambling.

Hopefully the situation would help them to find a peace of mind and eventually realize their mistake, at this situation we are experiencing now, the life is moving so slow so we can think and the good thing is we can also spend time with our family, that would help to gambling addicts as they can get some advise and hopefully they follow it and maybe be responsible when they resume gambling.

As you may know, casinos all over the United States and the world have begun closing their doors to slow down the spread of the Coronavirus. While this has taken a financial toll on casinos, cafes, restaurants and hotels, etc, it has put the kibosh on problem gambling or at least made a serious dent in the lives of hopeless gambling addicts.
What will most gambling addicts do when they can no longer gamble at casinos, and what do you think they'll do when the casinos reopen in several months from now? Will most of them be finally cured of their gambling addiction, or will most of them return to their old ways?

This trying time is a period I am sure anyone has not witnessed in his/her life time that have changed the way we have come to know about things. The addicted gamblers should just see it as a period of reflections to ensure they put a control to it. In the sense that what they think they can't stop is only there because of the current situation and now that nature or happenings around the world has done that for them, now is to focus on other things.

It's easy to find way to that, there's online gambling where they can gamble and still continue their addiction and how they live. There's always a way if you want to! And I think if the casinos is going to back again on their operation, there will be a lot of gamblers that will go there, maybe a small part of the gambling addict will be cure but, I am sure that, the majority will still be a addict and going to gamble there and continue their addiction.
For people who like to go to casinos and do not enjoy the online gambling would find it difficult to adjust to this because they are those people who would love to meet new people, enjoy the ambience and have a fun time. Those do not enjoy sitting at one people in alone and gamble online so it is going to be a difficult time but even this phase will pass out soon.

I think they are forced to stay at home and find other things to do to entertain them.
They could go into online gambling or just spend more time with their family.
Tournaments are being cancelled and offline casino's are off limits so they have no other option.

There's still table tennis available for sports betting but from my experience it's way too unpredictable compared to esports.Most of the majors and minors are usually done on LAN and right now with the pandemic that is happening, tournaments are cancelled, postponed and delayed.

With not that many options available for sports betting, esports is the only viable option for those people looking for competitive matches. Since the last few weeks of online matches there were some pauses happens here and there but i've never seen any DDoS so far though.

If this was the past then gamblers and gambling addicts would really stop from gambling. But unfortunately this is the modern age and everything has become decentralize including casino's where you can gamble online with more convenience or order food from a restaurant and have nice dinner at home.
So the shutdown of physical casino's isn't really an issue.

The actual feedback or reaction from previous gamblers will have much to do with the economy of their respective nation as of when the outbreak is been declared defeated. If the economy is in recession resulting to lack of jobs and they have to provide for their wellbeing and that of their household (for those that have family) they'll have no other choice but to result to their old habits whucyis gambling for fund.
Irrespective of how cure you might think they're, as a result of them not gambling for as long as the lockdown stay, the chances of them going back to gambling the moment they get the opportunity is quite huge since they'll need to get some cash for their basic needs.

They will just resort to online gambling for the mean time to satisfy their hunger on gambling. There are always different avenues to channel one's addiction for as long as the addict is dedicated to pursue his addictions. Mind you, there are tons of online gambling casinos right now that are fully-operational and give good bonuses that traditional casinos don't have. Due to this, I expect that some of the supporters of physical casinos would dwindle if quarantine times are prolonged and people learn to embrace online casinos at the comfort of their homes.

If the addicted player are player of the gambling through onlin they still playing for sure unless they don't have enough money because they don't have job right now. But for the addicted player of the traditional gambling they are the main affected of that because it is not operational right now.
But if they find that they can still playing through online Im sure they do all ways to play because of their bad habit but I hope those addicted players after the quarantine will become normal player who can able to manage their money using it.

maybe they are starting to have realization now as weeks passed without casinos on their itineraries so basically they are in family bonding now or at least solo in room thinking what they have done in past.What will most gambling addicts do when they can no longer gamble at casinos, and what do you think they'll do when the casinos reopen in several months from now? Will most of them be finally cured of their gambling addiction, or will most of them return to their old ways?
