Gambling has become too ingrained into the sports scene. While I do believe people should be able to make their own decisions I am very much against the advertisement of it. Since we do not require you to be of gambling age to play we should remove the casino / gambling and look for alternatives to provide monetary rewards.
Indifferent on the casino. As a 1st year player don't have the cash to blow but I could see how it's an awesome feature once you're more established and all your media earnings don't go straight to trainings.
Weekly bets would be very interesting to me. It would create more jobs for players on the site. Honestly it could be a neat introductory job. It would be cool to get an automated system so we could place prop bets. But long shot.
Sooo im a broke SHL user, okay. But I like gambling, which is what I did ! And well, turns out I regret it because I lost 600K while doing so. I guess thats my loss right there but, havent got too lucky so far. So yes, please remove that before I go insane and spend all my money on that.
I would love to see some prop bets. How many faceoffs can a player win, how many points, goals, etc. Really any stats where we can bet on an over/under for their stat totals would be a lot of fun!
I don't really like to bet, not even with my fake earned money. I don't really have any usefull ideas on what to do or what to bet on instead. So good luck with the ideas.
I love casino. I'm not exactly sure how you could improve it, but if I spent some time on it, I'm sure we could do some kind of weekly betting. Maybe get @luke to develop a whole new website at link betSHL.simulationhockey.com
I personally love having the casino around as long as the earnings are somewhat capped. That said I'd love to setup a weekly bet series with a friend (i.e fr every week of the season my team has a higher win % i get a point, person with the most points after the season wins the bet)
While I don't have the funds for casino betting on this player, I think having a lot of player-based bets would be fun, in the form of over-unders on certain stats.
I just started using the Casino a couple seasons ago. I think it is fine for what it is. Weekly bets could get a lot of people in trouble. I think either leave it as it is or get rid of it all together and find new ways for people to make money.

I want to be able to bet on how many changes GMs make over the course of a playoff series, I bet it would be the over every single time. I like it, nothing screams out to me to change otherwise
It feels like casino in its current form heavily favours older users over newbies, so I wouldn't mind seeing it go away all together. But that's just me.
as someone thats doesnt gamble much if at all. I am fine with casino how it is. we get hit with enough gambling and ads in real life we dont need it taking over our sim leagues too.
