Sure, why not? If it's a one-off thing, I might be inclined to make a bet on it, could be fun.
Only with insects though, not about to start betting on cock-fighting or anything like that Tongue
Why don't you like cock-fighting? Many Fathers on rural area in my country are playing cock fighting. It's fun though I watched many games of it and it is more crowded than watching your favorite basketball team. The crowd is roaring and looking left and right you can see people setting their different bets.

On insect, in my country children are catching spiders and they are fighting it with each other. Those spiders only that lives on the tree not those black widows, tarantula and etc.

Whether you said it or not, it is completely crazy to see the insect is fighting and you are gambling with that fight too.

When and where you gamble these kind of games? does the investors really like to invest these kind games?

Too much confusion about this game.

LOL my oh my I would never bet my money on a insect fight.
Now I would not have any problem if children wanted to partake in this activity.
Reason being that insects arent pets such as cocks and dogs are.
It is difficult to build a emotional relationship with a ant,
Funny topic please post some videos of possible.

It's interesting that a lot of animal battles are gambling by gamblers, it's very simple, but are you all used up to play games that aim to gamble? I will not watch animals attack each other because it is not very human for me personally, there is nothing to boast about in a fight as I see that it is not commensurate with what has been issued, then stop doing it only the child who does appropriate game in gambling.

In our country kids catch spidera and let them fight on a stick. You can also see adults doing the same and guess what, they are betting money with it. The question is, will this kind of gambling catch gamblers attention online?

I know this one, but I have no idea about what OP raise is happening.
Seems very interesting to find out how it was played, I hope there are videos where we can see them fighting, like a youtube video or something?

I remembered those memories before when I used to bet with the spider's fight and with the turtle race, too. Lol. I agreed that it was quite fascinating to see some insect fights like the special ant in their country. But I was wondering, do they also allow them to fight with the stick, too? Cheesy or do they also captivate and  put the two together in one close space? How does it work?

I haven't found some videos on youtube  Sad

For sure they can fight on a stick, but I have never seen that haha I will tell the kid's to try that  Wink

How does it works: they just rub their heads to make them angry and the fight starts. And just like leea-1334 said its a death match because the ants go like crazy and they dont separate until one is death.

Another crazy thing of these ants is that they are also eaten and considered a delicacy  Lips sealed

This is just like the live mouse racing or rather these are a species of Mongolian guinea pigs actually I believe,,, that this forum has a thread for, you should check it out. I think ant fighting might be different because it is about killing each other so you will find trouble to make this a legitimate or ethical form of gambling. Sure there is no blood,,, no screaming,,, but it is fighting to the death.

Me yes i will bet on it because i always try all like even if this related to gambling so in an insect fight i think this is good to gamble like if you risk then this is easy to win but vice versa that easy to lose too still that's part of it and we know if your knowledgeable about gambling you can control yourself like you will risk really affordable for you so even risky and you can lose still you can accept that

I used to bet on this kind of games, but it was just a friendly bet as me and my buddies are fond of collecting insects and have them fight during summertime when we were kids. So I'm not sure if there is a community or a fan based on insect fights. I know in Asia it's predominant, but how about any parts of the globe? I don't think though that I'm going to bet, for me it's just a friendly game and should not involved huge money, IMHO.

yes i do . on our place we use spiders  .  both spider will crawl on a barbeque stick and if one drops  , that is one point . the match end until a spider scores 3 points but if a spider dies the game is automatically over and the live spider will be the winner  .   the bets are mostly 1usd to 2usd  . it was thrilling and enjoyable but its now illegal because nowadays  , our government is now strict when it comes to local gambling .

For some Asian countries insect fighting has been done in the past, Asian countries like Japan, China, Thailand, and Vietnam have Beetle fighting as well as Cricket fighting but I haven't seen anything about them having insect fights for ants. My guess is because of the insect type itself unlike Beetles or crickets you won't really be ae to differentiate both ants in terms of their ability or strength. Unlike beetles or crickets in which you will see see that some of them are considerably larger compared to the other. And in terms of betting its not that really big in the insect fighting community like what I have said you will only have four main countries who might be interested in it.

..I don't think that an ant fight would catch the attention of gamblers..but would you believe that a spider fight would catch attention on some gamblers?..maybe yes,because here in our country,,spider fight bettting really takes place..i thought they are just do it for fun but in the end they places bets on which spider will win the match..But insect betting is not that much attractive and impressive to gamblers specially professional gamblers..they will call it insane.. Cheesy Cheesy

I never tried but I saw others betting on spider. I don't have intention as well because it's completely illegal. They don't have any permit so they are competing in hidden place, like it's not visible in highway but still Police has an asset so it's how many years now since they stop it. You can also sell the spider you got to a gambler. Price depends in body, arms/legs length.

For me, it would be impossible to predict what insect that would win, a guess is that an insect will only last a few matches at most, so favorites are not something you can keep betting on.
Another thing is that those matches are animal cruelty, so I would not put any money on them.

This made me think ...  What would happen if this took a step forward and stopped being just a children's game?

This is the first time that I heard this kind of betting game and made me think that this could go somewhere. In the trash. No offense.

How would it be if you could bet?

I don't think that people would like to see an insect fight even though it's really rare and unique idea to do so.

How would the people see it , its just as crazy as a dog or a cock fights?

This is one crazy game for a betting game.

I cant find any good reasons to bet on insect fights. We cant analyze, we cant predict, we cant do researches of the insect. It will be pure speculation bet and obviously it wont be profitable for players as there is no strategy at all to bet on such fighting unlike the fights of dog or rooster where we can do some analysis/researches first before placing a bet.

I remember my childhood on this one. Well, its just for fun actually but some owners who have the money to bet will surely done this thing before. This kind of fight is not that good online, since its hard to know who really wins the game and there's no right place for this one. Local betting can be more possible just like the cockfighting but it will depend to people whether to continue to have fun on this, or just stop it and let the insects live on their own.

If you have put 2 insects in a certain area to fight i consider it unethical.  Insects are more intelligent than you think:

I think that it is possible to bet on that because we have seen some other bets with animals. Making an example, I have seen people betting on dog race.

There is also goats fighting and knocking their heads and horn. Back then while still young, I have seen such bet too.
