Do you mean you can't go out for gambling because of the Covid-19?

Yeah, Covid sometimes can be a blessing because you cannot go to casinos like in Las Vegas. If you are addicted to casino gambling, it can be definitely good for you. But sometimes, it is still bad because when you go online, you can even go to casinos by browsing the web. LOL.

hahaha yeah online gambling will be on more demand right now :D
But better for you I guess you can limit yourself on betting or gambling anything on the casino while you guys are not allowed to be there :D

You'd be surprised, there's plenty of online casinos and gambling sites. A lot of people simply moved onto there if they weren't already. However people who strictly gamble in a casino then yeah they've certainly been cut off.

Couldn't agree more with this post.
An addiction is something that takes over your life, it doesn't just "end" because COVID19 closed a few Casino's..

Are you on doing online gambling in these times of Covid-19


RE: Is COVID-19 helping gambler to overcome the addiction? - AmineB - Oct 8, 2020

No i think it is a not a good opportunity to overcome addiction because addiction of something happens when you mainly stressed

I've always gambled online, so no this is just making my situation worse.


RE: Is COVID-19 helping gambler to overcome the addiction? - Green Dope - Oct 10, 2020

absolutely not.

You can disagree but here's my take. From experience.

Casino limits are higher. Blackjack tables in my area are $25 minumums at $25 increments.

Roulette tables are $5 minimums on the inside and no singles.

Plus with everything else closed, where else am i going to spend my money?

Since covid ive been gambling more than ever at higher stakes.
