ONLINE GAMBLING

Your Guide to Online Gambling


This online gambling guide offers information on how and where to gamble online, what games to play, from poker, to routlette, to blackjack, and how to bet and win!

With the advent of the Internet, a new form of gambling has risen to worldwide prominence. No longer do you have to plan a trip to Las Vegas or Atlantic City or Monte Carlo, or visit the back room of your favorite bar. From the comfort of your own home, any hour of the day, you can participate in Online Gambling.

Everyone gambles in one form or another. If you have a casual bet with a friend over the results of a Super Bowl game, that's gambling. Join the office pool on when that new baby is due? Play the lottery? These are all forms of gambling.

Online casinos are relatively new, but are already giving land based casinos a run for their money. One reason is that online casinos allow you to play for fun, not just for the money. Walk into a casino in Las Vegas, and they don't care if you are a beginner or experienced, you must pay to play. With online casinos, you can play for fun, until you feel you know the game well enough to play for money.



Winning and Losing

Online gambling is fun and easy, and there is a potential for winning a lot of money. There's also a potential for losing a lot of money as well. Here are a few simple facts to make your gambling experience more worthwhile.

First, budget your spending so that you don't spend more than you can afford. Remember that the online casinos provide a service and need to be paid for it. Their payment depends on the amount you gamble. When you play in the online casinos, you will eventually lose a few games, even if you win at first. It's important that the casino make a profit of some sort, or you will soon be looking for a new casino to play at.

Second, understand the basics. All online casino games have the same basic principles: odds, rules, and bets. Since bets are the most important thing in any casino game, no player can afford to try and play the game without understanding what casino bets are. Odds vary from game to game and you'll often find them included in the game rules. Rules for all casino games are readily available. Do not play a game without fully understanding the rules of the game. Remember that online casinos allow you to play for free until you are comfortable with the rules and your knowledge of the game. And,you can always use the "Help" feature if there's anything you aren't clear on.

Third, understand the specifics for each game you play. Some games are centered around the bets, while others are about gameplay. For example, in Blackjack and Poker you make decisions about how to proceed, but in Roulette the only decision that is yours is how to bet. The more you know about odds, payouts, bets, and special moves, the better your chances for winning. Often this knowledge will come to you as you gain experience. And the same strategies that work in land casinos may not apply here.

Fourth, be careful about people and schemes that advertise "safe," "guaranteed," and "instant methods" of profit in the casinos. None of these will deliver the results they advertise, and you will do better to study the games and interact with other players. Save the money these packages cost so that you can spend it in the casinos - you'll probably be better off.
