We already have few things that you can bet in Casino, but things can always be improved on so what other type of bets would you be interest in seeing? Weekly bets? Not sim related things? Or should the Casino be removed altogether?

I haven't really taken part in casino in quite a long time but it would be cool I guess to do specific prop bets on individual games? Maybe weekly bets if that would be too logistically difficult to implement but yeah I guess more variety is always a good thing

Remove casino, I hate gambling but I have FOMO about stuff in the league so I use it just because I don't want to miss out on something.

Casino should be removed of course. Hockey players can not bet of their games in the NHL so why it should be allowed in the SHL? Match fixing is a serious problem and we need to fight against it.

I think maybe the casino could be modified to include awards predictions, or things like the Presidents Trophy and Dumpster Trophy like in the seasons predictions PT.
I will admit that I don't really care too much as I have not used the casino since the prop bets were removed, which were an easy 15 mil per season if you knew what you were doing!

Do you have a casino?  There is no entry for it I can find on the site.  You give point tasks weekly and one thread to wager. Well there is one type of betting that I have found in other leagues that is a fun thing to do and that is uer bets.  Allow the users to make their own bets against each other.  Like I think my team will finish better than yours or my player will have more points.  All you need to do is open a forum thread for it and let the users go.  Oh and process the bets.

Gambling is a bad habit and even without real money involved it can trigger the nessesary neuro-patterns to kick-off an addiction.

If you just rename the casino and restructure it a bit. We could have basically the same thing as a prediction TP. Without it being linked to gambling in any form.
#9

I guess I can say that one thing that would be cool to bet on would be awards futures like the presidents trophy and the dumpster trophy. Or you could just rename casino to something else, as gambling is a serious addiction.

i think we should have a full on draft kings but SHL. we should be able to do all kinds of betting. prop bets, game lines, futures like cup winners, award winners... just go crazy with it. and the fact that we use fake money could mean it helps real life gambling addiction. i feel like i'm only half kidding

I'd love to see some o/u point totals for the top 3 forwards on each team. Just whichever 3 forwards or 2 defenders on each team have the most points, go over or under x amount.

honestly, the casino is pretty good as-is. I could see it being expanded in terms of bets you're allowed to make, or gambling on the outcomes of individual games rather than series, but as it is now, I really like it. No fuss, no nonsense, just a simple and clean, fun little system c:

"That way - no, no, a little to the left!"

"Oh, shit, not like that wait no -!!"

crash!!!

"Oh god Cake is gonna hit me again" :'0

I am not much for gambling along with some on this site. So I am not sure how I would go along improving it. Just not interested.

We should have betting ads everywhere. Just everywhere. It would make the game mor realistic for one and entertaining. I mean who doesnt love gambling ads?

I don't really do Casinos no more. I'm really not a gambling guy and I think the Casino should be removed even if people likes to gamble for the wins of a team. It's like predicting the future when you are in the present.

Here's a good quote for everyone that I love to not predict the future (even gambling):

''Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.'' - Buddha
