Casino needs to open up to more options - just take a look at the PBE and all the available options for betting as a template for what you might add to the SHL for people to lose more money

For me the casino could be removed. I do not like to gamble with cash I can not afford to lose. And I can not lose any cash in this simulation. It is all needed to make my player survive another season.

In terms of the SHL casino I think they are doing a great job in adding extra entertainment to the SHL season. Something new that would be cool would be weekly bets.

I think if we were to add anything to the casino, a good addition would be some random weekly bets based on specific players could be fun. Who will score more goals, assists, takeaways, etc.

Not a fan of sports betting at all so I wouldn't mind if it gets removed, but I also don't want to rain an anyone's parade.

Should have bets on things individuals do. How many days before Wally makes a trade, how long before so and so gets banned, etc. That would definitely spice up the betting around hete.

I don't play casino at all anymore and haven't really kept up on what has or hasn't changed on it.  My opinion is that we should abolish it and throw the SHL a pizza party.

The casino is fine as it is, one time a year you put a few dollars up, whether you only bet on your team to win or like to try and predict the champion. Anything more than that I think would be too much, don't want the site to be nothing but gambling ads everywhere.

It would be cool to see some prop bets or maybe betting on specific games, but I know it would be a lot of work to manage betting through a whole season.

I didn't really played the casino yet, especially since my bank balance is still low. But I think that being able to place bets on singular games would be great.

To be honest, I did not know that a casino was a feature in the SHL. Even if I did know of its existence, I personally am not a gambling type of person.
#57

I would love to be able to bet on an over/under on the final league position of every team instead of only being able to bet on the number of wins. Choosing division winners would also be a great option.

I've been in the league for several years and I barely ever used this feature, I have very little interest in it so I wouldn't lose any sleep over its removal if it comes to that.
But if it stays, I think it should be revamped to be more akin to a sportsbook.

It's probably not popular, but I'm on team remove the casino. I don't think it adds much, and I'd rather users made money by creating content for the league, or otherwise contributing. A big part of my dislike for the casino is because in the early days it was free money, so maybe I could be convinced that it's fine now.

Sports betting is so ubiquitous at this point that I can't really even watch live sports anymore. It's just a constant barrage of gambling exposure: ad breaks, constant pushing of gambling and lines during halftime shows, people bringing up lines at the starts of games... it's been so normalized at this point without concern for how it affects kids. Get it outta here.
