Topic: Would you bet on climbing challenges - page 3. (Read 1378 times)

Probably it will but the first few days, months and years of this sport being available to sports betting sites will be problematic because it's a niche hobby that will probably have a hard time getting an audience or it could have a reverse effect like exploding in popularity which is the better of the two.

You can watch some videos on Youtube to see how the sports looks like including the betting.

All information you want to see is just there.

But if I'm not mistaken, this sports or events didn't listed yet even before on crypto-gambling site so you might find it hard to bet using your crypto.

Although I love sport climbing which is very interesting but sometimes a little bit stressful but I wouldn't mind to see more of this. I would love to know more about it entire interface in which gamblers can place a trade. Climbing challenge would still be very interesting cause I could remember when we do go for mountain climbing in my state during those years I was in high school.

I suppose there are records about who won past competitions and the results each climber has gotten over another, the problem is that most likely this information is hard to find so even if you could find a casino where to place your bets then it is going to be problematic to determine who is the winner, and the next problem is that bookmakers have the tendency to give themselves an even higher edge when they offer sports in which information is scarce which means that it is going to become almost impossible to overcome the house edge if you are someone that is trying to bet on a professional level.

This sport is indeed a very extreme sport, but did you know that philosophically this sport has an effect on everyday life. such as patience, strength, and courage.

I've tried it, with a low height because I was still a beginner at the time, and as far as I know, this rock climbing gym has different types of climbing, such as speed, boulder and lead.

With the existence of a gambling site that bets on this sport, I believe it will be a strong driving force for the world of rock climbing that will attract the interest of many people.

Climbing challenges are not very popular here in our country but I read we have a small group of climbers dedicated to market, it will become an Olympic medal event next year, so I'm sure the popularity will explode, I have watched some climbing events and it's not an easy sport, you need to have a tone and strong body because you are carrying your weight and you have to think quick because one step you will slide and lose the competition.

Generally walls are graded. So, although you might not have the same climber on the same wall, they will have a grade. This does actually introduce statistical analysis, but it also introduces a element of luck based on the fact that climber x, and climber y haven't actually attempted the same wall, but have got times on the same grade level.

Although, this would only be true for competition type events, since a lot of climbing is self done, and there's no judge so it might not be entirely accurate. Therefore, only records held on competition walls could be considered.

You may say that it's not the type of sports you are expecting but the fact that they used pure skills plus a death defying act specially on a real mountain/outdoor that's is enough to tell who's willing to win the challenge. I don't think this type of sports doesn't have a statistics record for both old and new challenger. Each type of sports have their own data of collecting those who are worth it to bet their money. But I've never tried to bet this game once but if there is I might have to.

I love climbing. Both doing it, and watching others achieve new routes. So, if there was an option to bet on it, I'm sure I would. Although, I'm much more interested in setting new records, rather than competitive side by side, climbing. I'd like to see some betting on new records on climbs in the Yosemite, although I understand that your referring to the more, competitive indoor climbing than outdoor.

I believe climbing was to be included in the Olympics before Covid postponed it, right?

There's definitely statistical analysis to be had in the world of climbing. For example, how they deal with a overhang, how x performed against y on grade x climbs. Climbing isn't about luck, in fact much of the luck element is removed. So, what your saying is you prefer sports with more luck based elements. Since, climbing tries to remove luck as much as possible, otherwise you fall. This is especially true when free soloing or outdoor climbing as there's a greater risk of injury. Even when roped up, outdoor climbing has more risk of smashing yourself against the face generally.

If you've ever seriously climbed, you'll find yourself mapping out the route, spotting, and figuring out the least luck dependent route possible. Although, there are luck based elements in there. For example, sometimes you have to make a jump to continue, and depending on the circumstances that could well include a lot of luck.

I cannot think of a cheat how rock climbers will do just for them to get the upper hand. But even with that said of being far cheated, there could be really people that will try to think of tricks as they're into it just like any other sports that we have and saw the tricks that's being done by people associated with it.

It is not a common sport so there's really no casino that would take part on it if there's not yet demand from their players. If they'll add it, they should have a survey and poll to ask their players if they would love to bet on it and they should have a good provider for that sport.

I dont really see this to be entertaining and this is of course talking about pure skill because climbing does involved on how you do make out
ways on where to take the fastest track for you to win but is this something interesting to look or see upon?
This might look to be interesting into some eyes but not for me and i would rather see that being discussed slapping tournament
rather than on seeing these climbing sport tournament which i would see a bit more interesting than on this one.

Yeah, this is not really fun to bet on the climbing sport even it may be an interesting sport.
however, I am not sure that winning is only pure luck. I know that climbing skill is very important here, the experiences, and also how they can see every chance to use the track of climbing. It is about the skill and speed, who are speeder and also more skilful, they have more chances to win. So, it is not only about luck.

Even if there is a bookie that offers climbing bet I don't think I can bet on that type of sport betting, personally I prefers any sport that has statistical analysis and base my bet on past records,  eg soccer, basketball, lawn tennis etc as such climbing sport doesn't fit into these criteria, in this type of betting wining will be based on pure luck just like dice betting thus there is the tendency of losing many bets although the sport will be of interest to other people but betting on it will be very risky.

As we know there are many ways to cheat, one of the oldest and easiest is rigging the games, you only need two people to come to an agreement about one of them losing and then both of them using a third party can pool their money and then make a bet towards the winner and make a lot more money than what they will make otherwise by competing fair and square, I am not saying this is happening but it is a possibility that always exists.

I think cheating can happen in any sport and it just requires some tactics and corrupted volunteers for the competition.
May be people are less interested in betting for such sports and that's why the gambling sites would not have took the burden to add this sport.
But as climbing gets more traction in upcoming years may be the gambling sites would start considering to add the category for betting.

I really like this sport, besides football, rock climbing is one of the hobbies I do on holidays with my friends, I think rock climbing is a sport that is far from cheating in its competition compared to other sports that really often involved in the form of cheating, just like you, I also searched on several gambling sites but did not find any sites that made this sport a form of online gambling and it seems that rock climbing is not a sport that can be used as a bet because it has few criteria in judgment to determine winner.

But still, as climbing competitions are not too popular compared to the other sports, not many casinos will give people a chance to place a bet on the climbing tournaments. But after I tried to search for a while, I can not find any betting site with a climbing tournament. Even though a gambling site offers that sport, maybe you can not use crypto to place a bet as the sports do not have many fans.

That's true, if there's interest then expect that someone will start the bet and you'll find out that it's already starting to facilitate.

I don't see any crypto related gambling sportbook who offer this kind of game from their list, maybe it needs to have wider market.

The only possible way if you really wanted to gamle from this sport, you may find someone local who also have the same interest.

If there's completion and there is a winner, I am pretty sure that we can see some group or people will find a way to gamble. And yes there's a competition for rock climbing albeit not really popular since it's a pretty niche and expensive sports to be in and if you can count, it's also deadly.

So far, all the gambling sites I'm playing do not offer to bet in climbing challenges, if there is one,  it's going to be challenging, it's one sport that needs discipline, our country has an organization for sports climbing and they are becoming popular here in our country but it's an indoor kind of sports climbing.
It will soon become part of the Olympics and will be introduced in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics but due to the pandemic, it is delayed and will happen the next year 2021, after it become a part of the Olympics its popularity will soar and might be included in many sports betting.
