Who watches online gambling livestreams? Short survey on the topic

Hello everyone!
Since a few months/years gambling livestreams (mainly on Twitch) as well as gambling videos on YouTube gain more and more popularity. For my thesis I am looking for exactly such people who like to watch gambling livestreams.
If you watch livestreams where slots or other casino games are played, you are a very big help to me!
Would also love to hear your opinion on gambling livestreams below this post!

The survey takes about 10-12 min and can be answered in English or German.

I am very grateful to share my study here! For the people who are interested there is definitely a summary of the results.

Thanks a lot and all the best!
Paul

Link to the survey, if people wish to participate.

I watch the Jackpot Gents (formerly the American Casino Guide) on YouTube because they are entertaining and I enjoy the father/son banter. I guess this doesn't qualify since I watch on YouTube, and you are looking for Twitch viewers, but ultimately I like the mix of video poker and slot content, as well as looking at slot machines that I might want to play on my own. There are very few video poker live streamers and most of them are solo operations. As a live streamer you are constantly talking to keep people's attention and avoid copyright strikes, but talking to yourself or to an unseen audience continuously is boring.

I watched a blackjack video this morning where they were playing red rock poolside.they ended up down. Blackjack paid 6:5 very cute brunette dealer. I think dealer only got 1 blackjack...6 deck shoe.entertaining video Vegas gamblers channel about 13 minutes

I may be wrong, but from what I understand, this guy wasn't even streaming gambling on twitch.

I watch gambling videos on YT so I can learn about the rules of the game, the game play, table etiquette and mechanics, especially on games I have no or only mild familiarity with and that I might like to play in the future. I might watch a prerecorded livestream (contradiction in terms, I know) at a later time/date at my leisure. I do not watch livestreams as they are being streamed, well, live. I tried to take your survey but do not qualify. Best of luck in collecting data.

I watch pinball on twitch on very rare occasions. I'm just too busy with gambling. There's all the e-girls on twitch who I don't watch because I'm watching them on Insta. Really, getting into twitch takes too much time.

Maybe I just never knew where to look, but I felt like there was hardly any gambling on Twitch to begin with. I followed a few slot channels that stopped streaming a long time ago, and I could never find anyone streaming Roulette or Baccarat. Most slot streamers were kind of boring, there were maybe one or two BJ streamers of any interest, and Poker is on TV constantly nowadays so there's no real reason to watch that on Twitch.

I don't see this ban as a big deal, because it didn't feel like a big gambling streaming place anyway. Seems to be way more content on Youtube.

It's probably a big deal to the streamers making a living doing it.

Yes, I just meant for Twitch, the company, it isn't much of a loss. Gambling isn't their bread and butter by any stretch of the imagination.

It's an overreaction on their part due to this situation. It's just an attempt to show they are doing something. As I said, I don't even think this guy was streaming online gambling content. Perhaps he was inspired and started his gambling addiction due to other streamers who were. I thought there were already gambling policy restrictions anyways.

New twitch rules start October 18th. Stay tuned. Legal US gambling may be allowed but offshore rip-off sites may be banned. Poker, sports bets, and fantasy sports may still be allowed.

As if that's going to solve the problem. Not all Offshore are rip-off joints. They should never allow places with bad reputations a platform to advertise.

Yes, the infamous 6:5 game at Red Rock where the rocks refer to what are under the dealer's skin.
