Bookmakers on the agenda… Brasilia is mobilizing to put into practice the laws that regulate bookmakers in Brazil, both physical and online, each with its own specifications. Understand taxes. The government is keeping an eye on revenue. The fan / gambler, in getting rich. Or at least earn some extra money. Brazil is a country of gamblers. It is enough for lotteries to accumulate considerable amounts from one game to another for lotteries to form queues. Everyone has their faith.
The Brazilian will enter this market… Outside, in Europe, especially in England, the bookmakers are already sacrament. Some sites that advertise in Brazil are based in London. Betting embraces all competitions, from football to tennis, through many other modalities, and a range of specifications.
All kind of bets… the first goal will come out before or after 15 minutes of play. Everyone bets on everything. Brazil will enter this without doubt. The subject is popping up. The first steps have already been taken. The project goes on.
There is distrust… It happens that, like other countries, we have had problems, for example, in football. In matches results. Arranged games. People benefited from these scams. There has always been a lot of distrust in the sports lottery, for example. Reports have already been made in this regard, one of them by Placar Magazine some time ago. At the wheel of betting, there's always that game that no one knows for sure why it's on the list. This distrust will continue to exist when bets are released in Brazil.
There is also VAR… In the case of football, there is still a new ingredient: VAR (Video Assistant Referee). From what we have been following since the video arbitration system was made official in the Brazilian Championship, it would not be too much to suppose that we will have problems. There are a lot of details to fix, lack standardization, referees are questioned all the time. Penalty then, do not speak! It is the Achilles heel of arbitration. All of this will be directly linked to bets when they are regulated and can be very confusing.
