With IPL Suspension; Rummy, Poker, and Esports Platforms Benefit

With IPL being suspended indefinitely, the users of fantasy gaming, which entirely depends on live sports, are looking at a variety of options.

Mumbai-based Tanmay Shandilya, 22-year-old MBA student, who used to actively play fantasy cricket during the Indian Premier League (IPL) has now shifted to other games after the cricket tournament was suspended a few days ago as players, coaches and staff were found covid positive.

With IPL being suspended indefinitely, the users of fantasy gaming, which entirely depends on live sports, are looking at a variety of options. They could range from real money gaming platforms (RMG) dealing in rummy and poker games, shooter mobile games or even other esports platforms.

For multi-gaming companies like Games 24X7, for instance, that operate both fantasy (My11Circle) and rummy gaming (RummyCircle) it is easier to target existing users by offering flexibility when it comes to creating teams and playing different games.

Fantasy gaming, which depends entirely on live sports, allows users to make teams and win real money on platforms while esports platforms facilitate single and multi-player competitive video game playing as well as participation in gaming tournaments.
