This might just be a 1% of the total profits the casino would have made which is nothing to them even though it seems to actually be a huge funds size for us looking at the figures involved. I remember in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic which led to compulsory temporary pause of many major sports leagues, yet one of the local sport betting company in my country were announcing their profit for just one month to the tones of billions in our local currency and what baffles me was that they called it a low profit. Casinos are really making massive profit that their loss is nothing to equate with.

Since during and after COVID lock down, alot of casinos have witnessed high traffic and this resulted into huge profits and revenue generation for the casino, and for sure losing such an amount to a big global casino like Stake is very small and unnoticed loses for them, compared to how much their may have gained within that same market period.

Absolutely, online gambling platforms saw a massive influx of traffic during the Covid-19 period and even after the pandemic was contained and activities returned back to normalcy, still, a lot of persons got hooked to the online platforms, making it their number #1 option for their gambling activities, especially after finding out how convenient and private it is when comparing it to physical gambling centres. Hence, this raised the profit net of online gambling platforms.

I’d put it this way:

The pandemic clearly accelerated the growth of online casinos. A surge in users, changing habits, and the convenience of online gambling created a long-term effect. For a giant platform like Stake, even large individual losses are relatively insignificant compared to the overall increase in revenue and don’t have a meaningful impact on the business as a whole.

For a while, I was wondering whether Stake would follow the last 3 years bonus pattern or not. Because they had delayed the pre-monthly bonus a little this time. Finally, it had arrived on the 15th of December. Now I'm optimistic about getting the 2nd monthly bonus from Stake for the Christmas celebration. There is no guarantee, but the possibility is very high for the 2nd monthly bonus.

No need to worry. It's gonna be same.

Christmast are big event, and they having the same patern or style promotion in the last few days. We only have a different with poker table these, but for monthly is gonna be 2nd monthly no doubt for it.

Just wait 25/26th for the monthly. They will share.

Now it's pretty much 99.9% confirmed we will see the 2nd monthly bonus some time soon. The players at .us got their xmas monthly some hours ago so there should be something coming to the rest of the world in the next days. No clue why of all places the Americans would get the bonus before Europe since they don't even celebrate xmas on the 24th, right?

Yeah, that was the time when the online gambling industry boomed. Infact, there were very few departments that got boosted in that covid-19 era and online gambling was one of them. However, we saw a lot of casinos popping out at that time but only the one who were keen to provide good services survived and the rest fade away.

Even after the pandemic was under control, many gamblers realized the ease and comfort of online gambling and they remain stick to the online gambling and never returned to physical gambling casinos. It was not only about convenience but also other things like better privacy and easy access.

It looks like the pandemic really paved the way for the gambling industry to earn huge profits through online casinos. And if we think about it, even now, gambling has become even more rampant and much more convenient compared to before.

We can clearly see this today because even poor people now have the means to play at online casinos, unlike before when that wasn't really the case and only those in the middle class were capable of gambling in physical casinos.

For sure. Gambling and predictions markets are the two things making more money alongside with AI markets like OpenAI and Anthropic.

I think its only a matter of time for Stake to release a prediction market to bet on normal things like companies results and also results of events that are not from sports or slots. And they will make even more money because they get a cut of everyone betting everything.

The pandemic really changed everything, including the way people playing gambling. The online business gets a good time to grow and expand so many people across borders can reach them. With the ease of Internet access, people can visit Stake and other casinos giving them a way to play online gambling. They can't go to physical casinos but they have another option which is playing in an online casino. All casinos are aware of this so they will improve their business and expand into more markets to ensure visitors to their sites are satisfied.

From a technical point of view, this is clearly not a problem for them, but I am not sure that Stake can launch a prediction market under its current license. After all, from a legal point of view and depending on the jurisdiction, prediction markets are interpreted differently than sports betting. This means that other licenses need to be obtained.

Pandemic really help online gambling but it’s inevitable even if pandemic didn’t hit since that time social media is growing rapidly which is the main reason why online casino boosted presence during pandemic when people frequently browse on social media out of boredom at house.


Influencers, streamers and vloggers shill hard online casino that makes it’s popularity grow past. We should give credits too on the real reason for the online casino growth.

It is now 25th for me so I hope the Xmas Monthly bonus will come today (max 24hours) from this post
Otherwise, it can be called as a late xmas bonus since 25th should be the perfect day to release the bonus for .com users
Anyway, I would say Merry Christmas to any Stake's users who celebrate it, may the joy of Christmas bring happiness, peace and "profit" to you.

Many prediction makets do not have a license or do not need a very hard to acquire license. It's a lot more easy to launch a prediction market than a gambling website in the USA and other countries and this is why they are booming, because they can offer things like sports bet with a different name that is not banned in many states where gambling is.

There are many articles saying about this like this: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6826803/2025/12/23/prediction-markets-sports-what-you-need-to-know/

Seems like we have to wait a bit longer, trolling of .com users has now come to xmas also.  Instead we got "increased rain", the worst of all "events" imaginable. This xmas promo really is the worst I have seen in 5 years. The drake streams have been terrible and aside from the monthlies there has been absolutely nothing mentioning, not even a race. Also, my host still owes me a big bonus but she is on sick leave since Sunday. Of course the backup host can't help for whatever reason.

The hype surrounding prediction markets is just beginning. As we know, regulations are always a few steps behind and adopt a wait-and-see approach. We might see a different legal response once a certain market volume is reached. After all, this is just another form of betting that is heavily restricted in some countries.

Let's hope the regulations remain this relaxed for a while longer.

They sent an email about 3 hours ago with subject "Merry Christmas", I thought it is the email for the xmas monthly bonus but I was wrong as it is just an email about Christmas Promotions LOL.
Seems that you are right that we will have to wait a bit longer but 25th is not finished yet in my country, still 7 hours remaining till moving to a new date 26th.
As I remember, most bonuses were sent in the morning in my timezone, so high likely the xmas bonus will come after 12 hours from now.

[Betwrong]

7,000 seats filled? That's amazing! Poker on Stake becomes really popular among gamblers around the world.

Nah, IMO, most of these participants are only freeroll players. ~

I want to participate in those freerolls but haven't had a chance yet. A couple of days ago I played in a $10 buy-in tournament on Stake and took 12th place with 331 people played:



In my opinion it's a good prize, especially the bounty for kicked out players. I think I'll be back.

I can't play in those free rolls, unfortunately, because we have only a few hours of electricity(and internet) per day,

Few hours a day only? Man, where are you living? 

I live in Kyiv, Ukraine. It's because our infrastructure is severely damaged by drone and missile attacks.

Will this Christmas without bonuses? I don't get email notification for bonuses as Christmas moment and not any updating yet at Stake twitter official account for the Christmas.
Just increase the wagering amount maybe if want get monthly bonuses but if lack the wagering activities will get nothing, I wish the Christmas have special moment for Stake user maybe earn special bonuses without waiting the monthly bonuses.

[Symphonized]

Merry Christmas from Stake's Team!

[ryzaadit]

Will this Christmas without bonuses? I don't get email notification for bonuses as Christmas moment and not any updating yet at Stake twitter official account for the Christmas.

Just wait around 5:00 WIB - 7/8:00 WIB.

In my local is around next 1 hour. They mostly shared on these timeline. Sometimes they shared a few hours before the next day. Like last 1-3 hours for the next day, just try to wait. Still worth it to wait for the bonus.

If none, then that's crazy haha.

This really opened the door for online casinos during the pandemic, because everyone was stuck inside their homes. Of course, many people didn’t have a source of income, so their option was to gamble online hoping they might get lucky in their games.

Throughout the whole pandemic, casino owners were able to build a large gambling community online, and even after the pandemic ended, the growth of that online community still continued up to now, honestly.

Just wait around 5:00 WIB - 7/8:00 WIB.

Check now, double monthly is out.

They sent on 5:37 WIB. Just like my estimation, they always do these send the bonus on the last few hours before the next days. They never send it at the time early hour on the days but they send it on the last few hours.

Good luck people.

I immediately checked my email and indeed there was already a monthly bonus that I got.
This Christmas is really different because some of the offers and bonuses given by some sites certainly make us happy.

I will postpone the game because I have enough to play for today but it can't be denied that even though the site is different (not stake) my luck feels for today where I get some change from the slot game I did.
Now I will just enjoy the day well and will play another time.

Here we go! All nighter was totally worth it. Time to hit the reels with grandpa 

Hunting for big multipliers is so much fun. Don’t forget, Stake has some Christmas promos going on. Who knows, we might hit a huge multiplier.

What christmas promos they are having that you like the most? I don't use stake but I can try if they have nice seasonal promos, maybe for new members that want to try the casino for the first try like myself.
