Sports betting has always been one of the hottest commodities in Kenya. It is fun, exciting, thrilling, and with the bettors’ love for their respective sports on full display, the stakes get even higher. However, the recent COVID-19 pandemic has led to the suspension of sporting events and live games, leaving bettors and punters with nothing to place their bets on. The sports betting industry was crippled with the leagues and associations no longer playing and prioritizing their health. However, one of the popular alternatives to live betting is virtual betting in Kenya.
Virtual betting is very popular during the off-season. Now that everyone is practicing social distancing and staying at home, it is bound to pick up where it left off. Virtual sports are essentially fantasy sports that you can liken to casino games in that they are electronic and depend on a software to determine match results. A random number generator is used to determine the outcome, and it ensures that there is no cheating.
Live betting and virtual betting have a lot of differences. Real-life betting takes more time as bettors need to do their research in order to ensure that they have the best chance of winning. On the other hand, virtual betting does not require a lot of attention since the outcome is random, and it only takes two to three minutes. Bettors can go ahead and bet on another game once they are done with their first one.
Engaging in virtual betting in Kenya can be a fun way to pass the time and have fun. However, without the basic strategies, you may end up losing a lot more than you are spending. Make sure you are considering all factors before making your bet on a match.
