We are all aware of the present situation, there's a pandemic and most of the sports are not permitted at the moment, however, with some news and rumors going around in the space, I have a feeling that sports will resume soon.

The sports that I like to bet when sports will resume.

1) PBA (our local basketball organization)
2) NBA
3) Boxing especially on popular boxers.

Maybe it may take quite sometime before everything gets back to normal which includes hosting a live sports event since there is still no vaccine or medication being discovered that will cure or stop the covid-19 pandemic. But there could be a possibility that there can still be a soon response on this on which sports events might be conducted in a "new normal" manner in which only players are allowed in the place with no audience and if there will, social distancing and other health protocols will be needs to be strictly conducted to avoid the spread of virus

I have read a post in this forum that at this month of June sports betting on boxing might be held which will follow strict health protocols.

Slowly, sports events will come back in a "new normal" manner while there is still no vaccine so betting on sports book will sooner or later be back once again. Let us just all wait until such time for there are alternative ways possible so that we can still be able to have sports betting.

Unlike most of you guys, I'm bet mostly on Cricket and I'm happy that I'll be able to watch some cricketing action between England and West Indies starting July 8 if everything goes as per the new schedule. So it's just 33 days to go for me  Tongue

The way to slowly get things back to normal is just to do our responsibility which is to be aware of the pandemic in order for us to do the right thing to prevent from getting infected of the virus.
Well, there will always new normal practicing which where we still need to have social distancing and make other behavioral changes. It also the same for all sports events, there will be a change of all even it will start sooner or later but it will depend on the sports have. Moreover, physical contact sports are still can't able to resume, unless if those players will have under quarantine as required days before they will allow having a match.

Just like the country of Australia, they had 15 principles for the resumption of sports and recreation.

But if the sports event and all things become normal, it will not be the same as the previous time before the pandemic.

We are calling that the new normal because whether we like it or not, the virus will stay for awhile since the vaccine are still on process right now and there is no assurance yet that it could really heal the people infected with the virus. Well, as what the scientists are saying that they found an effective cure, but until it's distributed and tested by people, we will remain hopeful.

The way to slowly get things back to normal is just to do our responsibility which is to be aware of the pandemic in order for us to do the right thing to prevent from getting infected of the virus.

   Measures are easing in the last couple of days. From yesterday there can be 1000 people on one place,
sport events are opened, with few rules to follow, like the one 1 meter between people! I saw couple of
games, but I didn't place any bets yet. I will let it for a while, to see where are teams and players now
because I am sure that this pandemic affected all of us and players and teams will need time to get back
in previous shape.
   Slowly we are getting back to normal! The next few weeks will be crucial, and without many new cases
we can expect things to go back to normal!

Of course, this pandemic will affect all of us, including the players and teams. I think when one event has started, it will introspecting to see what it needs to fix more to be better so from time to time, and the sports event will have a better looking and have new normal in the middle of the pandemic.

We hope that there will be no new cases this month and the next month, so the sports event and the other things will not have an effect. But if the sports event and all things become normal, it will not be the same as the previous time before the pandemic.

This June a lot of good news from the world of sports, especially from the football branch of several countries have decided to start again
closed the doors match. Even the German Bundesliga has started since May. With this good news, of course I, as a sports betting fan,
will start again soon. And if it starts I like to bet on EPL, La Liga, Serie A and the NBA.

This is still experimental if all the players are not infected for the whole duration of the first phase of the events they can still continue, this is a contact sport, and the only way to prevent infection is for all the athletes to undergo swab testing from time to time and the results should be release in a matter of days.

They definitely know the risk, and therefore we can expect that they will do what is necessary just to ensure the a certain league will continue to go live again. The longer they stay to get rid of the covid-19, the bigger the hole will be created because they don't have an income, and this world would not progress if we don't know how to balance between battling a pandemic and developing our country, and we are in the recovery mode now, so hopefully things will not go wrong otherwise, we will be back to based 1.

Hopefully we wont really end up on getting back to the beginning if things or protocols havent been followed properly.You are right on saying that management or association would really do their best to follow up measures or procedures to get rid of the virus while they are continuing to start events since they do need to income then its normal for them to be strict with the compliance.
For gamblers out there then this would be a temporary solution and its totally different to look up the new normal (events do happen in fields with crowd).We see some sports are resuming
now and can already bet on some books which is great.

As long as there is no vaccine  yet that's the only solution, people love to watch games and gamble at the same time so these sports organization that are running their game has to be extra careful so we both can enjoy while we are still waiting for the usual normal to come back.

It's hard but we have to accept the reality, and although for the organizers this is not what they want to give for us, but that's the best thing they can do at the moment, at least they tried something to bring back the games that we are longing to see.

I agree. A league will never push their comeback without serious preparation. They are not playing a childish sports game here that's why I don't understand why others are negative about the sports that might resume next month. It's not just about business but people need to go back to work.

We can't just apply here the "what's the 1-year break if, in exchange, the virus will be eliminated" because, in the first place, the virus won't be eliminated completely at least for years. People need to work, the business should come back, the economy should be saved, the result for stopping all activities for a year is much worst compared to the pandemic that can control as long as strict guidance of health protocol will follow.

I hope that every people who involved in the event will be okay, and I hope that they can make sure people feel safe to watch at the stadium if that is allowed.

If some sports event succeeds to start the event, I think that can encourage the other business to start, and we will see new things in many countries.

After the quarantine and lockdown and they need more months to be sure that is no corona virus to resume the events and activities in all games in the world. We know if they resume the game without audience it is boring and It is not good to watch because audience is one of the way why the games become enjoyable and excitement.

Why the concern about being boring should be raised. What matters here is, they are coming back slowly as they really need to.

Didn't you know that playing without the live audience is the best safety measure that is necessary to implement.

We just have to accept that for now, we won't see the usual game environment we used to see before.

In any sports audience plays the key role and no way deny that without crowd sports matches are less enjoyable. Specially for them who love to watch live matches in the stadium rather then watching from home. In current situation its quitr risky to allow audiences where entire human civilisation is facing centuries biggest pandemic covid-19. Like so many sports lover i am also missing the real taste of many favourite sports but we have to wait little more time to get everything better like past.  

Due to corona virus attack many sports betting platforms are losing their regular users but sooner or later they will get them back for sure. Personally i am also waiting to place some bets for my favourite teams and now just passing time by watching wrestling on TV with naughty home kids.

I guess I do not need sportsbetting anymore. Yes, I have already found the alternate for sportsbetting and I am very much comfortable with my current gambling activities. I mean I am already into esports betting which is providing all the comfort of what I actually do expect from my gambling. Fortunately many gambling houses have already started esports betting which must be another reason that I do not have plans to switch back to sportsbetting.

Previously I have switched from dicing to sportsbetting for the reason of no strategy in dicing was profitable to me and this pandemic times around, I found esports betting as an replacement for my sportsbetting as no real sport took place. Unexpectedly esports betting is profitable to me compared to how I have performed in sportsbetting. So, I guess I may stick within esports forever here after. Hope many people here already have decided like me Cool.

Im really excited if it does happen and NBA announced that they will resume basketball games this July.
July? So meaning we need to wait one more month to witness the start of NBA again?
Any supported link of this announcements as proof?

We all know about Corona Virus Pandemic. It's in this situation that a pandemic is spreading not only in our country but also around the world. We're all looking forward to watching again and betting on our favorite sports. Although I'm excited to be watching sports again and betting who will win. Just like Boxing, NBA, and PBL because like you. I'm also one of the betters in these sports. So with the news of the reopening of sports, I was overjoyed.

Have some links according to that July thing but all of those are just presumptions and rumors but the entire association is targeting that it would be resumed out this year hopefully.

https://www.hoopsrumors.com/2020/05/nba-hopes-to-resume-season-in-july-or-august.html

I was also thinking it will start next month, but I know it's just rumors, it could be next month or August, we never know, only the NBA will know and it's not an easy decision since this is not a one on one game only like boxing. When they return, they will have to ensure everything is properly plan so there will be a continuity going to the playoffs then the Finals, as long as this happens, it would be more than alright, even if no fans in the arena.

For me the possibilities of the returning of the NBA in this current year is too low, the U.S.A has the highest death toll because of the virus and it already reached 100,000 deaths in all over the states. I'm sure that the management of the NBA will considered the risks and there is no game that will happen as long as their is still no vaccines that are been developed.
There will only be risks if they are not careful, of course things will never be the same, one thing that will be sacrifice is the crowd, there will be none in the propose set up. some NBA teams have resume started to practice already AFAIK, that simply means they are preparing for something and I'm pretty sure that is the resumption of the NBA season.

According to Trump, the scientists of the U.S will create the vaccine but it will take more time and the forecast date is January next year. I also now too bored in the house because I cannot bet in sportsbook that I always doing before. I am sure that there are many betters like me who are now trying different gambling games to kill the boredom.
NBA can resume even without the vaccine yet, other countries have done that, so if USA is a great country, they can also do the same.
We don't look inside the box only, sometimes we need to look outside as their, we can find a lot of solution on how to combat covid-19 even without a vaccine.

I think it will be longer with contact sports like this.
NBA might even take longer since the number of positive Covid19 patients is higher in USA.

Although they already letting practices to happen, when it comes to the real game it will be difficult since they will be in contact with other players and sideline personnel.

For the vaccine got failed provably that will be happen their hopes cut when this news came WHO suspended hydroxychloroquine trials and might the whole physical sports will get affected with this since the Covid-19 still hitting on, And I truly believe that there's no game gonna happen once theirs no vaccine produce. Maybe next year we can see the action again and lets hope for it.

Just calm down and be optimistic, we will wait for the progress next month, if boxing event will resume, then probably NBA has a chance to resume too, boxing is a contact sports too, same with basketball, so if possible with boxing, it can also be done with basketball.

When I feel the situation is better then it will be a sign for me to start betting again on sportsbook because with the experience I have, betting at a time like this or returning to the game after a long break at least it will be difficult for me to predict, as we know in The recent Bundesliga results have been very unpredictable and I have personally predicted that if this would happen so I refrained from lust to bet on those first days.

I also believe that sports betting will be back soon because like any other business or wonders, they can't also just wait for the pandemic to cease because that's how athletes make a living. But I don't think PBA will resume any time since we know that our country is still struggling with the pandemic, and every day the number of cases is increasing.

Other countries may resume their sports event, especially countries with lower reported cases. They can resume game events without an audience to avoid the crowd. But compared to other sports, basketball requires a group of players and the same with boxing, they require close contact which is what we are trying to avoid. Maybe other sports can begin again aside from those sports. But if other countries had started reopening such sports, it's fine as long as they can follow safety protocols.

But for me, maybe there are some people who already switched to some eSports after some sports got postponed due to this pandemic covid 19.
Just like me, I got to used to bet on some eSports game, so I am not so affected of the some sports being postponed.
but i heard some dota matches or some match related to esports were cancelled too . being online doesnt mean that those guys play only on thier homes on thier own but they must gather  on one venue  and that venue can compose of many people such as  fans , members , staffs , etc but the one that got mainly affected is the original sports games   .  idk if when will the covid end but i can see major improvements of recovery so this means all gambling kinds will resume soon   .
Yep, most of the stage tournaments are canceled due to this COVID 19. But some of those canceled tournaments made some alternative so the tournament will still proceed like they changed the stage tournament to Online tournament, which team can participate online or per region (to avoid high latency), this already happens in Dota 2 recently.
But now most of the tournaments are online, some of the team are in the same house or venue playing together but there are also some teams that composed of players that located in different venues like they are only communicating via team speak.

Hopefully it really continues, but im seeing increasing numbers of people getting infected so my guess that it would be still be tentative and if it resumes i may not bet in a few games because i need to see which team is still in condition and haven't loss their touches.
The increase of cases cannot be prevented anymore, especially in US where over 1 million of people are already infected, but business has to continue, otherwise USA's economy will just simply die without a fight, the current government would not allow that for sure as Trump himself is also a businessman so definitely he understands this.

And not just that, the best example is football and soccer. Some games already resumed so if they can, basketball is possible too.

These sports that involve several players in the field, arena, or court can be played without an audience to lessen the risks of more people getting infected.

There is someone here, on other thread, who shared a football game wherein no audience involved. That's the part of the new normal in sports that we will always see from now.

Exactly, I am sure it will not be hard to make a measures for these games since in other countries these games are already played, regardless on the number of cases in a certain country, the government can still make this games possible to resume if they work on making a guidelines the organizers will comply.

With poker, especially our bitcointalk championship https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/2-bitcointalk-poker-series-005-btc-big-btc-ticket-sponsored-by-swc-poker-5245365, with other games I totally forgot about sports betting. I don't watch tv much, so I don't catch much news about current events in all sport competition (football and basketball are the most interesting for me, European). As it seems some started with trainings, they are discussing how to continue, but for now there's nothing specific. Probably I will wait more before I get involved with sports betting again.
Until then, we can have fun with many other gambling games. I know I do, and who like to play poker should join us, we can play poker together and have fun!

We will soon to see a new normal in the next months, no matter if the pandemic still is there or not because there will be some protocol that people needs to obey if they want to go out. But still, it is a risk to go out if we don't be careful, especially if the sports event is a resume, and they allow some people to watch live at the stadium.

And if the sports event starts again, the sportsbook website or place will also begin to, and that makes people bet on their favourite teams or players. But that will be different than before which some of the events will not have an audience. Perhaps, in some countries, the government will allow people to come to the stadium to watch the match.

but i heard some dota matches or some match related to esports were cancelled too . being online doesnt mean that those guys play only on thier homes on thier own but they must gather  on one venue  and that venue can compose of many people such as  fans , members , staffs , etc but the one that got mainly affected is the original sports games   .  idk if when will the covid end but i can see major improvements of recovery so this means all gambling kinds will resume soon   .
Yesterday one dota match from ESL's online tournament got cancelled but it rarely happens. Not all teams are playing in the same building there's still teams that play far from each other you'll mostly notice it from dota teams as they have stand ins, roster change, etc every now and then.


As long as the sportsbook would offer something interesting while other sports aren't available i'd continue gambling but not too much since most of them can be unpredictable even with the stats available.

We are all aware of the present situation, there's a pandemic and most of the sports are not permitted at the moment, however, with some news and rumors going around in the space, I have a feeling that sports will resume soon.

Probably it will resume soon after all the players are tested.  But the main concern here is the audience, would they operate with just 50% of the audience watching?  They may end up losing instead of taking profit from the sold tickets.

The sports that I like to bet when sports will resume.

1) PBA (our local basketball organization)
2) NBA
3) Boxing especially on popular boxers.

I do love to see these sports resuming again because this list is one of my favorite e-sports to bet aside from online games such as Dota 2 and League of Legends.

Online games are usually played for fun but match games are a lot of fun There are a lot of fans here and it is closed due to the situation but it is going to open very soon Many countries have come under control in terms of virus control It's not a rumor the situation is going to get better.

Waiting for NBA to resume, just NBA because this is the only league that allows me to bet on a daily basis, of course a game that I know very well.
Hoping to see the playoffs soon too, hopefully Amazing things will happen as that is what NBA is.

with the news that US has already found the vaccine and developing it already, this is a go signal that they will loosen a bit.

as to when, maybe next month, I'm very optimistic.  Grin

The situation, despite the covid 19, requires adaptation, quarantine was the defense method and in some ways has been effective, but stopping contagions at zero became very difficult in practice in the short term, so it is required An adaptation in the way of life but with social distancing.

Sports are going to start in a phase without an audience, in that sense soccer, the NBA golf sports that are registered as the main ones to start in the short term, but in the case of the NBA the main theme in a At the beginning it was to cancel the season but the economic damage would be greater, so they are looking for ways to save the season, which is why if it becomes official they plan to start by the end of July, taking ESPN Wide World of Sports* as the venue for all the teams, but even this may change in the coming days.

Boxing I follow only in the big events or big fights and this sport in that sense is perhaps one of those that could expect a great fight next year, of all the sports in the so-called top 10 in which boxing is found, I don't see how a great "fight without an audience" can be performed, come on it can be done, but the essence of the public in any sport is really essential but in boxing it is very fundamental. I think betting on a great event and with great boxers they will have to wait for 2021.

In general, July-August is seen as the beginning of some of the main sports and, consequently, sports betting.

Well, I didn't stopped betting even during pandemy. There was still some football leagues running like Belarus or Nicaragua. So, I was betting on it sometimes, because I really missed sports betting. And now when Bundesliga returned, it's such good feeling when you can watch top level football and bet on it. There is quite many football already running, so there is some options to bet on. I just can't wait until La Liga will return.
1. PBA is Philippines league, right? If yes, I have no idea how much Philippines were affected by virus, so I won't answer it.
2. I would predict that Nba will return somewhere in July.
3. I haven't folowed what's going on in boxing lately and don't know when major events were scheduled to happen. But I think in June we will see some events returning.


Overall pandemic situation is not getting lower actually. We are at the last stage of first wave only and second wave is on the way. I don’t think in this kinda situation affected countries will take extra risks to start sports on their region rather than keeping everything paused as it is for next couple of month. Already WHO declared that after europe covid19 gonna massively spread on Africa and Asian territory where large number of people will get affected for sure. Already its started and most concerning thing is that it can reverse to other countries like it did from China to all over the world.

Definitely corona virus will stay longer than we are expecting and results will be massive if people don't follow proper guidelines which are provided by their government.       
It's getting better, not as fast as we would like, but it's fact, just look at charts. And second wave - it's just predictions. Nobody can guarantee that it will happen. Or if it will happen, nobody knows how serious it will be. For me sometimes it feels that all talks about second wave are made to keep people in fear.

3) Boxing especially on popular boxers.

Those on your list are the usual sports I've always betting on.

1. NBA is now in preparation for their comeback. There is a high chance that the league will resume in a few months. Guidelines is expected to announce a few days from now.
2. PBA is also observing the situation and will announce their decision in August if they will resume the season.
3. As for boxing, Top Rank CEO Bob Arum announced that they will begin fights next month.

And as far as other sports league, some are also in preparations for their comeback. Sportsbetting sites will surely be back again on their usual activity this year. But I hope that while they are slowly coming back, the spread of the virus will now be slow too. I want to see our usual normal soon, not the new normal.

Right this is over the news and I think they are tackling in the issue right now on how to adopt in new normal so that they can successfully open up the league also the match, provably in upcoming months we will see them go live as Manila is underway to go ecq since most of the mayors agree to it, Hopefully they will be successful for that plans and no another wave of covid cases so all things will be consider.

Oh, we've in the same sports after all. Obviously, when the time that they are all resumed, that's it. I can freely place my bet.

Same here also. There is no difference before and after on what sports will I place my bet.

As long as it resumed, I will do my usual betting like before.

In the Philippines, there is humor probably next month, but it is limited only for those person-to-person sports events. They must go under 14 days quarantine and it can be done by their private indoor. This might Explain very well, EXPLAINER: When can sports resume amid coronavirus pandemic?

For boxing and basketball, June will be good month according to the industry analysts. There will be several other esports next month, so I doubt June will be worse than this month regarding gambling opportunities. Anyway, there is always some live event awaits on the corner of the site for gamblers.

For betting in the NBA, i think it's safe to say that in July, probably we could already bet on NBA games as the rumors of resuming basketball is on a high gear. For boxing, Bob Arum is cooking something to the fans of this sweet science. He will bring back televised boxing next month and the plan is that it would be in a crowdless arena first. They may be copying the template of what UFC have done few weeks ago in Florida.

Bottom line and my fearless forecast, we can start betting in June and it would be in boxing.

Basketball seem not possible yet. Sports event attracts crowd so much and if one Covid victim mix up the crowd, everyone could caught covid too before they even go home to their family members.

One sports production UFC of Dana White took the risk. There's still MMA every weekend despite the Covid risk if this is the kind of sports you watch then you can bet on it. Everyone I guess had noticed Tokeweed's UFC thread where they update us of the games.

I think next month will resume all kinds of sports events and gambling industries like betting probably back to their business and continue. Probably we can see that they will back slowly to their career and there are a lot of changes to it. I am sure that there will be a new normal implementation protocol before they can play again as an athlete. Nevertheless, this is not a big problem
Yeap expecting same from my end and honestly its being quite tough to spend time during lockdown without sports event now.  Although i am die hard football fan but have average thrust for boxing, basketball, horse racing and cricket. Lets hope for the best and sit tight to watch full crowded live matches soon. Hopefully that will enable options for sports betting platforms to continue their business again.

if they will follow all protocols and guidelines on how to have precautionary measures each person involved in that game, just like rapid testing and a couple of days in implementing self-quarantine.
Its the best we can do now until WHO prescribe any proven cure for the entire world.

For boxing and basketball, we can expect some updates by the month of June onwards. While waiting for those matches, haven't you tried betting with esports? It's also a common betting game for bettors and gamers at the same time.

There's no need to be good at analysis, as long as you can familiarize yourself to the teams roster, individual players, and their opponents, that's already your basis what team to bet. Do you know Dota 2 and counter strike? they have ongoing matches that you can bet.

Boxing is already coming back as early as June, with the MLB, NBA, NHL and other leagues in North America following suit as soon as they iron out the guidelines and other prerequisites in order to continue the tournaments. Football (soccer) leagues are also considering on continuing the season sans the audiences on the bleachers, and quite possibly ask for payment on viewership to at least get some profits. Anyway, most sporting events are on the horizon, provided that they are met and held with guidelines that prevent the spread of the disease further.

If there will only be a vaccine. I think those sports will invest in it even with an expensive price since they can get it back easily.

Many of us here do miss betting in our sports games. NBA is my game and betting in it gives more fun for me.

Well, they can continue the sport right now.

If they want to choose a sporting event without support and visitor at the venue, so only the organization, team, and some media can attend to the event. Avoiding a crowd of people would be good to prevent the spread of the virus if they want to continue the sport event.

This is the reason why the possibility of having matches like boxing is very possible next month. The less number of people, the better. So we may see some sportbooks alive again by next month, though only few sports will definitely make it. Badminton and table tennis are actually having their betting already.

During the Covid-19 pandemic, many gambling industries are closed, especially sportsbooks that always involve so many people directly in one place. It really gives a big impact on the owner, holder, industry, players, and also gamblers including all parties related to the sportsbook. The rule must be obligated. They are closed. However, as the OP said that some sportsbook industry will reopen again their sportsbook although that is still in the pandemic.

1.  PGA Tour
This is scheduled to open around June 11. They will continue the tournaments in Fort Worth, Tex. However, some other major PGA Tours will reschedule the tournaments longer than it should be. Some of them will be extended at least until September 2020, or the other is canceled.

2. NBA
While NBA nd two other NHL and MLB will also have interesting ways to still continue the tournaments. The way is by gathering the team on the stadium but without any audience or fans of course directly.

And many more.

Actually, seeing the most sportsbooks are closed or postponed due to this COVID-19. As reported on the Betfair website. Almost all sportsbooks from football, basketball, golf, cricket, and many others are postponed.

To prevent being stressed, much online sports betting try to resolve the problem. The way is by joining in the online sportsbook. However, the result may not be satisfying because it is something different.

Group games with physical contact might take a long time to resume. Although it will depend on which country you belong to. There are already countries which might open group or team sports in the next few days and weeks, but there will be no live audience.

"What they plan is that probably next week we'll announce the three events we're gonna be doing, starting June 9. We're gonna do three events that week.
