What's The Better Place To Gamble: Online Casinos vs. Land Based Casinos.

Although traditionally, land based casinos seemed like the only solution to solve your gambling needs, the appearance of online casinos allows any potential player to take a walk on the wild side, and venture into the world of online casinos where privacy is their focus. Let's look at some points that make Internet casinos the better place to gamble.

Competition
Running an online casino is less expensive (but not in any way easier) than a land casino. Lesser expenses means more online casinos and more online casinos means competition between the Internet casino houses. The competition means better service and more fun and that's where you win. Choice means you can stick to what you like, find an online casino that offers the best as it suits you - the player - and if you didn't like the experience, just dump them. Try another online casino. Online casinos will strive to provide you with variety of games and conditions - against machines and other online casino players. It doesn't matter if you are a gambling beginner or a high rolling casino veteran as you are equally welcome whether you are a new player or a seasoned casino guru. The business premise of an online casino is just like everyone else's: they lose if you go. The big difference is that you've got somewhere else to go and it doesn't take a whole lot.Online casino sites come and go every time - the online casinos that give crappy experience or run by amateurs simply don't survive. Only the good online casinos stay. Which brings us to the next point:

Safety and privacy
An online casino will not try to film you and whom you walked in with. You wouldn't be kicked out of the online casino if you don't observe the dress code (we don't have a dress code!), if you win too much (like they always do in the movies!) or if they simply don't like you. You can play games in an online casino while wearing boxers and flipflops. And you can do it with beer in your hand, a cigarette or whatever is it that you prefer to consume. The online casino doesn't care. No one has to know that you do it, and no one does. It's absolutely your business and not anyone else's. The online casinos know better than abusing your trust: they just don't get the opportunity to cheat you. Besides, all serious online casino businesses employ latest state of the art encryption technologies to protect the players' privacy. When entering an online casino, study their privacy statement! The hard core security technologies that online casinos employ are designed to protect the player because it is the player that is the most valuable asset of online casinos.

Environment
While the luxury of a "real" casino is infallible and can't be completely reproduced by a piece of internet software however sophisticated, it serves you no good when it comes down to the thing central to the casinos - gambling. The casino athmosphere is trying to dissolve and distract you... from your money. Think about it! In a "real" casino you'd be competing not only against the groomed dealers and other players but also against the casino crowd. They'll be watching you and you will feel their sights on your back, the pressure and the push into making your move already. Have you ever thought why a casino would never have a clock - anywhere? When you step into a casino, it grabs you and distracts you. Free drinks, beautiful people and seemingly welcoming comfort of a casino will relax you and draw you away. When you choose an online casino, you remain in control. An online casino can't outdo you in the comfort of your own home and frankly, it doesn't want to either. You can play throughout your work day or work throughout your play day. No online casino will ever tell you when to come and when to go. Like they say: your home is your castle.

Ease
A player can get into an entire new life of online casinos in five minutes even if you are not really a people kind of person. Even if you are lazy ( most probably if you are lazy!). There's no embarassment for newcomers, you don't have to go anywhere or dress anything and it doesn't really matter if you've played it all before or this would be the first game of your life. Click-click and you're in. Online casinos have all the help, support, certification and technology to satisfy you. Everything online is under your fingertips, one Internet search away. As you can chat with other players and look up the reputation of a particular online casino if you want to or even submit a testimony, online casinos will do everything to please. The paradox of online gambling is that the industry that is traditionally associated with cheating and crime in minds of most people is in fact one of the cleanest, safest and most successful Internet businesses ever. Online casinos are there more for you than for themselves.

Fun
Online casinos are instant fun and an awesome experience whether you choose to just compete against the computer or have fun with other real players.

Money
Not the usual casino plastic chips - real money. In "real" casino you buy chips; in an online casino you would create a casino account and transfer funds into it. The fundamental difference however that in an online casino you know how much money you have at all times. The chips are only used for bets and the entire thing isn't as puzzling as it would be in a land casino. By the way, online casinos always provide you with an opportunity to play without any money at all - for free or with "fake" money just so that you get the feel of the game and understand the rules, maybe work out a strategy or build a preferrence. Moreover, the competition forces the online casinos to try and attract the customer in every possible way - and that includes sometimes unbelievable offers and bonuses. Imagine walking into a casino and getting free chips? It's real. The games are as good and the chances are even better. Where land casinos are tightly controlled by the authorities, online casinos are kept in check even tighter by an even better authority: the players and the laws of market. You can actually go to an online casino and win real money without going anywhere - without risking unwanted exposure and your money.
