    Stick a fork in offshore books
    They cannot survive this....

    Regulated U.S. outfits at least have casino and some poker not to mention brick & mortar.

      bricks-n-mortar = fixed costs, junk bond debt interest costs.

      online sports betting = send employees home..........

      not saying no one should be concerned about online sites.

          Yeah, every single sports franchise will now go belly-up because no people will be in the stands and they aren't going to make any revneue much less any profit right now! All sports teams will go bankrupt. J-O-K-I-N-G!

            Massive incoming withdrawls will expose every book.... BOL might be able to weather the storm with their poker platform.

            The rest are up eventually

              They will stop "trucking" at some point and stores will shut down everywhere........"see Italy". Does that mean every single company in the world will go bankrupt? Common. These books make multi-millions a year. They will be fine.

                  i would guess many dont have enough cash to cover all their deposits if there is a run of withdrawals.

                        Exactly. Surprised how many guys aren't getting that this is the real issue. Think what happened with Full Tilt after black friday. Think the books keep enough capital on hand as a contingency in case all their customers suddenly withdraw their balances at the same time? I fking doubt it

                            do you want to take up a collection and then you can send an envelope to some of the affected families of offshore employees?

                                      There should be a huge uptick in their casino action though... tons of people who will be working from home more often now, playing during downtime, and many others who typically go to the regular casinos will switch to online.

                                        A lot of people will empty their accounts in the online casino. You underestimate action junkies and addicts.

                                        Horse betting and esports betting is huge business in Europe, along with random soccer leagues that are still going on, so that'll soften the blow for UK books.

                                              I would assume that they will shut down for a couple months or so. There's virtually nothing to bet on. What would they be paying employees to do?

                                                  what books should do imo:

                                                  offer 100 percent cash matches with lower than normal rollovers right now. allow multiple uses of the bonus as long as the account hits zero. allow bonus up to at least $500. say it is a way to reload before sports make their comeback. use some advertisements thru sbr so marketing money is minimal. maybe send an email blast.

                                                  some will be responsible enough to deposit and let it sit.

                                                  others will need action and play the horses or poker or another sport and lose cause they don't know the game or sport well. those same people and/or others will be tempted and end up giving in to play in the casino. they will lose the quickest and feel the need to reload cause of the 100 percent cash bonus. then repeat above.

                                                              many us books are losing money including fandual and draftkings because of enormous costs and advertising

                                                              offshore books are FUKKIN RICH...100 million +++ profits

                                                              extreme low costs they can care less if no sports for a month
