As far as I know, Horse racing isn't that much a popular game after all, though here in my country, some local casinos used to make the game available to bettors, but right now, it's hard to find a casino to bet on horse racing, this simply means that the game is probably dying off little by little.

And what i do think is that, when horses were a pretty much always available commodity, the game of horse racing was pretty popular and one that was enjoyed by very many people all over the world, but today, horses have become very scarce, and pretty expensive for those who still have it, so instead of spending so much money to host horse racing games, people now refer to spend less to host even games that are more interesting than horse race, as we have a lot of options today when it comes to sports.

I don't think that the scarcity of the game has anything to do with the scarcity of horses, and horses aren't scarce at all, they can be found all around the world, and they are also not so expensive that the sport would start fading away because people can't afford to buy horses. I think it's just that the game was more ancient and vintage people and societies used to like watching the game and since there aren't a lot of people interested in being spectators, the game isn't played that much.

People these days are more interested in modern-day games like football, cricket, baseball, tennis, boxing, and a lot more that are played and liked on a global scale and there is high demand for these sports which is the reason why most countries are interested in having these games instead of those that are fading away with time.

But here it seems like there is little interest in this, is that because horse racing is just unpopular or is it because, well,.... the casinos that sponsor most signatures here are not promoting it?

I come from a country, where horse racing isn't popular at all. I mean literally nobody gives a sh*t about horse racing where I live. Sad

AFAIK, horse racing in popular in the anglo-saxon countries like the UK and USA. I don't know why. I don't mind betting on horse racing, but I just don't find it interesting. I can't predict which horse is better than the other horses and can't analyze the performance of the horses and their riders. I don't think that crypto casinos actively promoting horse race betting around the forum would change anything. This sport simply isn't popular in certain parts of the world.

horse racing does not have the turnover bets that other sports have.

bet the one in the first race and you are done till the first race ends.

bet a basket ball game.

over and under each quarter.
point spread each quarter.

money line each quarter.

thats 12 bets.

half time score over under money line thats three bets.

15 so far.

same three for final score we are at 18 bets.

next fantasy teams in basketball

you can have three players from one team and two from the other.

so one game can have many many many complex angles to the betting.

I think this hurts horse racing. As the two or three minute race does not command you time like a two hour basketball game does.

There are countries where horse racing is popular but there are many countries where horse racing is not popular and here in my country I belong to unpopular in actual game which means that, casino and gambling site here in my country don't have that game. anyways some of my fellow countrymen invented a game which known as Karera and when you bet 1 bucks then you have a chance to win 100x or more when you win but sad to say it's hard to win that game.

Horse racing is only popular in certain areas and maybe they watch horse racing just for entertainment, horse racing is rarely used as betting because interest in horse racing gambling is very low, casinos need to assess the level of interest of gamblers for traditional sports because casinos have to pay development teams to add horse racing gambling. However, if interest in racing gambling is low then the casino has lost funds that could have been used for other costs to improve the security of the gambling system.

- Do you honestly think running a prediction game (run with my own funds) would attract genuine interest in this and not just shitposting quota?
- Would let's say 1-2 mbtc (per event, about one or two per month) be enough for people here to at least open a few links and take a look at what hoses are running and what their timeform is?
- Is anyone here actually gambling on horse racing?

I have never watched or gambled on horse racing in my life, this is something I only know from movies. To me it seems that it's very different in other parts of the world and it depends a lot on the country you live in. In the biggest regional city near my hometown, we don't even have a race track for horses anymore, it got removed 20 years ago to build more houses. It's also very rare to see horses in my country, there are few people who keep them as pets and ride them for fun, but nothing competitive or professional. Same goes for sports like Polo, it's not common over here and people are also not interested anymore in betting on it. Maybe online this sport could attract more people, but I am a bit sceptic. At least for me I wouldn't start with horse gambling anytime soon. I prefer to bet on sports that I know and where I have an advantage, with horses I know nothing and I don't see myself becoming successful with it.

~ Betting on horse racing is estimated to be over €100 billion annually.!!!!
And here we had users telling me betting on horse racing is dying.! Roll Eyes

~

€100 billion annually? Wow! I didn't know about that!

As for your questions in the OP, I've never bet on horse racing before, but if it's free or you propose much better odds than anywhere else, why not, I would try my luck, I think.

My only worry is, what's in it for you? I'm afraid you'll be just losing your money, my friend.

Anyway, thanks for opening this topic! You've mentioned "shitposting" two times in your first post and it appears it helped to avoid that kind of behaviour here.

In some of the countries the horse racing was still legal one,because some of the gambling site had totally ban the horse race because of the animal was affected by the horse race.Some horse rider was injecting the drugs to the horse for the better performance.After the origin of the many online gambling sites,the horse racing interest on the gambler was oxidised over a period of time.Some people started the case for the usage f the animal in the gambling and also the gambler affecting huge by the financial loss by the game.

I have not really come across any gambling site that have listed horse racing before not to talk of those that have ban the games on they casinos, this is because horse race is one of the most old popular games, but the only problem with this game is that, the physical event requires a lot of preparation and also need many manpower to guides and officiate the games at some point and as far as I know, it much more of a local event than it is at an international scales may be fhat be the reason why those horse or other animal games are mostly unpopular in online casino.

horse racing is still somehow popular and legal in other countries. In our country, it indicates that approximately 65% of wagers of the community are related to racing particularly horse racing as this is the most popular. the statistics demonstrate the significant role that horse racing betting plays in our country's gambling culture making it an essential component of the industry. Some gamblers in our country engage in betting as a means to earn money, while others do it for leisure.

Horse racing still in some countries of the world horse racing is organized as a tradition of the country in noble old rural areas. But all those competitions do not get international recognition. Moreover, some of the competitions require large areas of horse racing which are very expensive and therefore horse racing is generally not desired by the authorities.

Some country still considered horse racing as their traditional activity,So they also import the horse from the Arabia,Persia for the same.In the ancient time,the horse racing was belong to the villages,after the civilisation the horse race was made in the most important cities during the colonisation of the country.After the country get independence from their colonisation,the most of countries made their own style of the horse racing.At the beginning it was origin for the entertainment;after later days the same horse race was mean for the gambling using the animals and huge money was involved in the horse race.

Even though horse racing is no longer as popular as it used to be in several countries this type of sport is still popular and is used as favorite sport.
One country that still has great enthusiasm for horse racing is England and Ireland although there are still several other countries from Europe.
Even the world horse racing championship is still active today it just that in gambling circles this sport is no longer very popular.

Most horse racing fans bet directly or place bets with bookie who accepts bets when a competition is taking place.
Moreover, those who bet on horse racing are usually people with quite fantastic wealth and who bet with fellow horse racing fans.

When you talk about horse racing being unpopular you have to be specific, in terms of what category of the game seems unpopular to you, and also why have horse racing not being in physical casinos, or its limited presence in physical casinos is because horse racing is not a game that you can easily organize and it work in a limited cycle, no sometimes, horse racing game can cover up to 20 to 10 miles and that requires a special route for the game, this is the reason why most physical casinos don't list such games unless for clubs such golf.

But the online gambling sites have had a tremendous increase in terms of game designs that give the player a unique experience in both the virtual that make you get the same excitement as if you playing in the live games, so that settles the issues of the unpopular of horse race to some extent.

The horse racing was famous in the old ancient times,but it was loss his importance because of the emergence of online gambling sites.Even the horse race like online games was in build in the gambling site itself.The online horse race will reduce the time for the gamblers,it also gives privacy to the gambling people.The online gambling sites help to secure the online gamblers from the society.So the win or loss of the gamblers will not around the world as the news.Most of the gamblers fear for the society at the time of loss,because they need to convey all set of family members and friends after the loss.The loss reasons to friends and family members because of regular gambling sites.

Yes I have read about horse race for long before even becoming a member of this forum and at some point why the game was popular in the ancient time is because then, there was no online casinos to provide alternative to physical casinos also in the ancient time, the rate of development was low in terms of infrustural development and this made it easy for the horse racers to have enough free land to conduct their tournaments freely without any interferences but things have changed now and such activities is becoming unpopular with many now migrating to online casinos.

Privacy is indeed one of the fundamental requirements to maintain a healthy gambling life, and since horse races are becoming an online thing, privacy has indeed increased significantly

Horse racing is basically a vintage sport, it was very popular back in the day when people used to take a lot of interest in the sport. I know that there are still regions where there is a lot of interest in the sport, but that's not the case everywhere because horse racing isn't as widespread nowadays as it used to be before. People are more into modern sports these days like football, cricket, tennis, baseball, boxing, and a lot of others that are loved by a global audience.

I believe this is the basic reason why there aren't a lot of people in the forum or around the globe these days who are interested in horse racing because they barely see or watch the sport, It's been years since I saw a horse racing competition on TV or anywhere on the internet, it's that rare nowadays.

That depends on the country, there's probably not a lot of horse racetrack in your country so it's not as popular or there's probably a lot of track but the betting would probably be needs your physical presence and given the current climate on animal rights, there's a lot of people on the Internet that are against any form of human entertainment that involves animals so they're probably staying off online, if you actually know where to look for, you can probably find a television channel where you can find horseracing. For me, I only read about horseracing results on the sports section of the local tabloid.

Indeed, in my area here in Nigeria, Horse race and Dog race used to be very popular sports to bet on till around 2015 or so, i remember a friend mine playing and winning some really nice amount of money from dog race at the time, he actually had a bet or two on both horse race and dog race, luckily for him, one of the bet on dog race paid off, he a won a nice sum of money, but like most addicted gamblers, he didn't do anything good with the money, he still spent everything playing the same games.

So yeah, this niche used to be very popular, but it's unfortunate, or should i say fortunate, that people have shifted their attention to modern sports like football and the likes, I personally never used to like any sports that involves animals after all.

Well this might happen on underground gambling scene but on legal arenas for sure this injecting of performance chemicals to their horses is not happening. And we can't see those illegals been streamed by legit bookies since they always adopt those legal sports event for better audiences also revenues. Some might don't have an option to bet on horse racing but for sure there are some casino offering that and you can try to check the list on this link https://www.bitcoin.com/gambling/betting/horse-racing/

It may not be popular to other some people but for countries who think horse racing is a sport to them then they can go to those casino recommended on the site I link and they can bet there favorite jockey.
