A draw is the most common result between top players in the world. Soon the tournament will start in the Netherlands, Tata Steel chess tournament. I would never bet on blitz games, those games can go in any direction. At a classic pace of play, the better players generally emerge. There are also often games that quickly end in a draw. You should think of games between compatriots or that they can secure a shared tournament victory in this way. There might be some value in that.

Chess tournaments as well as checkers may be a good sports field for the betting industry. I know I would bet in a chess match as I already did that against a friend. We have gathered a group pf players in my neighbourhood. Thrn we started with a betting game where we could bet on the winner ot we could bet on first player going for a check. Ithe experiment worked out fine. So, if there was a site where you could bet on checkers or chess would you go for it?
personally i would not bet on a chess match, its so complicated to predict the odds of winning.
I myself am not very happy with chess betting and if I see there has never been a bet on an online site about chess gambling. If there is, I probably don't know.
For me, a chess match is very annoying, I have to always think about a very complicated strategy, and sometimes a chess master can lose to a new player. so I don't really like chess bets.

Chess is something an interesting game but making out bets would be only be possible or could really be seen locally or physically but not we can able to see up online.
There are several factors which would give out some hindrance for people to play, one is fairness which they would be that mindful whether they are fighting with a bot or a real person.
Next, the house or a platform cant really make money much on a long duration type of pvp game which means that it isnt something or doesnt look interesting for any company
or would consider on adding it up but rather they would be adding fast pace games like dice and other casino games.

Chess event = YES

PVP feature CHESS = NO

Better to risk money on chess events if bookies will list it instead of playing directly a chess match in an online gambling platform.

Since chess, if we played it online against an opponent, can be subject to the use of bots, our skills are all useless against the bot's algorithm.

This is true.

Did make some research and we should at least know the standard time for each game.
Casual games usually last 10 to 60 minutes; tournament games last anywhere from about 10 minutes (fast chess) to 6 hours or more.

For Chess enthusiast then having a betting site or something you could play against with other players then it would be a nice add up or advantage but
pretty sure that only a few whose really interested on this one.

Cheess is a good game that few people only knows how to play. If there is a sirmte where we could bet on Chess game and winner then that would be fine but what would make many gamblers not to consider that as an option is because there may be no individual chess player record where we can check and guess a winner based on there precious history. Of this would be available for gamblers just like we have in football matches where analysis are based on the club formation and different past matches to compare what would be the outcome on the future in current matches.

Chess games is believed to be a kind of game that requires experience and lots of calmness and thinking to strategies the pattern to use in playing, it also help understand the process one van safeguard himself against any intruder, but it surprised me why many casinos are not including this into their list of acceptable games to gamble with, also maybe it's a kind of game that is believed to be commonly played by the rich men.

hard to really analyze the skills of chess players when they get to thier career where they are both known in chess. with only one false move, they could just surrender in a game that started less than a minute.
I would say it's hard to analyze them from games because they are so much more better then me.
I can analyze athletics even if they are better then me but when it comes to brain work, how can i analyze someone who thinks 20 moves before me.

I's say i am pretty smart but when we talk about genius level players, i completely lose the scale on how smart they are compared to each other. I might bet on some low level games though.

We have quite a number site offering chess betting opportunity, the issue is just that it isn't that popular because the sport itself isn't very popular to encourage gamblers to try their luck. Chess is a skill game as such anybody betting must have the skills to understand how the game is going. It isn't a luck based game like many other betting opportunity that gamblers rely on their luck game for them to win.

Chess betting won't have many gambling participating as it isn't a common sport so I see no point of it been on every gambling platforms to make it popular. I have played chess once and it was too calculative for me to love it. I don't think I'll buy into the idea of relying on players that I don't know their ability to win the games.

Coming from a country where chess is one of the sports here that has a chance to compete with dominant countries, yes, I would like to place a bet for a chess match that involved our representative. Asia's 1st Grandmaster was also here in our country, Eugene Torre and there are lots of current GMs here that are working on their ELO rating.

Unfortunately, because of the poor handling of some athletes here in the country including the sport of chess, the famous Wesley So who is a product of our country decided to switch his country of representative several years ago or I think almost a decade now.

Anyways, sharing a chess-related thread here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/chess-fide-candidates-chess-tournament-2022-5404544

I don't think people would make bets on a game that bores them... and we all can agree that watching people playing chess has zero entertainment value. Checkers ain't any different. It is just another boring board game.

I think people rather would bet on e-sports  like DotA, CS, LoL etc. These games provide more entertainment to the youngsters especially.

And old people who like playing chess are usually wise enough to not make a bet on anything.

I have heard from friends that the game of chess is one of the best. They say it is a game for the wise and royals. But I wouldn't bet on any game that I don't have any experience in. I don't know how to play chess, infact I don't have any interest. The only way I could try it is when I learn about the game or at least have foundational knowledge about the game. Including it in gambling sites might be a good idea because gamblers that are well grounded in the sport might find it very fascinating. After all, having many sports or games on gambling sites makes betting more interesting.

As a chess admirer , I would prefer this sport to be outside of betting because Chess was not meant to be for betting.

Chess is a game and any game can be used as bet since it involves different party or persons involved in it and competing to win against the other person for price or position. So it won't be taking outside of betting. I foresee a time that this will be added in the betting option like the popular games we know.

I have been playing chess since I was in my elementary days so I know how the entire game works. It needs analytical skills and strategy to win. It's good to include it in gambling but one of the hard factors that could affect our decision is the struggle of choosing players to bet on because it's like a mind game so we can't determine their capability easily. It could only attract gamblers who are also into playing chess.
I also understand that playing chess used to be often played with friends to hone my mind and skills to build strategies in this game but I have never bet and don't know how to do it, if this really existed?
I just enjoyed the game first while for other bets in chess I didn't really pay attention and if it was in a casino maybe I would try it to bet.

Well, I actually do not know if it really exists, but this post is just for that. For anyone who knows any site offering this sort of bets to post here. As for betting in chess, I actually think that it could work like any other sports, hence my post.

In gambling that I can be able to analyse, I go for just few ones like sport, I prefer football and table tennis. There are other ones but I prefer those two, especially football which I spend more of my money that I can afford to lose on. I am a busy type but I like casinos too, the one that I prefer more is roulette. I like playing chess, but I can not gamble with my neighbors or friends, there should be some sites that may support chess, but I have not checked that before. What I just noticed is that I have fun with football, table tennis and roulette. If I see any betting site that support chess, I may try it to see how it is, but not likely that I may like it, it depends on the outcome and how fun it is.

Yeah, I actually do not know about gambling sites allowing users to bey in chess or checkers games. Do you know any!? If so, please share as I would love to give ot a try.

I, like many people, used to play chess and I think this game is very good, but personally I am not interested in betting on chess tournaments as well as watching other people play. In my opinion it is much more interesting to play chess yourself, but only if the game was not online (without the ability to use artificial intelligence).

I think I would give it a chance.
I am not well informed about chess as an intellectual sport but sounds like something I could get used to after a while. I would not watch the matches in live time though, I would wait for the results too come out and then watch the replay at high speed.

I used to play chess myself, but I was never good enough to be competitive.  Tongue

As a chess admirer , I would prefer this sport to be outside of betting because Chess was not meant to be for betting. I'm not on a great level when it comes to analyze games and see what strategy each player is using when they play but those who can track moves like this , can easy score some free winning bets if Chess was for betting or live betting especially.  Grin

Due to how fierce and fascinating checkers and chess tournaments can be to watch, it's feasible that some individuals could be interested in placing bets on them. It's crucial to remember that gambling may be risky and addictive, thus it's crucial to play responsibly and stick to one's budget. If you do choose to gamble, it's crucial to make sure you are doing it on a respectable and reliable website.



if there was a site where you could bet on checkers or chess would you go for it?


Indeed, I can bet if I will participate in the game. As for the bet on others, of course not, because I do not know much about the famous people of the game
