Casino Games
Monday, April 28th, 2008Well I have decided to write yet another great article on my casino blog pages just to get you aroused and interested. Many people use these wonderfull content generator script things and I have tried but am not getting very far. I put in phrases like casino games and online casino and all I get is a load of codswill about yukon gold or intercasino… nothing about casino games that make any sense. So…. I am going to write my own. It may take a little longer but I dont mind because I have time on my hands and I know it will make some form of sense… as long as you have the same warped mind as me.
Casino games is what I am talking about today. There are many types ranging from the card games, to table games and slots games. Some people just visit casinos to play poker. Games like texas holdem are now huge and the tournaments are going on every weekend. You can win big money if you are good but you are winning money from your opponents not the actual casino.
Games like slots, blackjack, roulette etc. is where you can increase your bank balance at the expense of the casino operator. These are fixed odds games where you will bet an amount on a certain outcome. The more likely the outcome is the lower the odds the casino will give you. This is true gambling. It is a game of cahnce a lot of the time but If you follow some strategy guidelines you can make these sometime short odds work in your favour.
Whether you play games at a land based casino or an online casino you will still get the same thrill. Online casinos are better for your money. Land based casinos have huge overheads for rent, staff, electricity etc. etc. and for this reason the odds are stacked a little more heavily in their favor. Online casinos do have overheads but they want you to play the games so they offer a higher payout ratio in return for a volume of players. 1 player giving the casino $100 is the same as 100 players each giving the casino $1. Online casinos go for the 100 players and manage to scrape a little from each one.
How does this work with fixed odds games like roulette I hear you ask. Well Roulette, blackjack and other table/card games will work on the basis that offering free drinks and having good looking busty dealers will keep you at the table longer, get you drunk and loosen your play. An believe me it does work. You will gamble more and loose more. At an online casino you will gamble less and loose less. It is a proven fact. In most cases online casinos will payout 95% of the bets they take in winnings - this means that while some people will lose, many will win. A land based casino will payout around 75% of the money taken. A big difference.
The biggest money spinner in a land based casino is the slots games. Slots games can have their odds stacked in the casinos favour electronically. If the casinos are not making so much money on the cards and tables they can reduce the payout on the slots. As there are more slots players than anything else this is how they make sure they never lose. An online casino doesn´t do this. If they did theye would never get any players and the independent auditors would shut them down. Payout percentages of online casinos are released regularly and they show that slots games payout in the high 90´s… some games, over a monthly period will actually payout more than they have taken.
So online casinos are actually the way to go.. they payout more. They are more accessible, you can play them when you want from the comfort of your own home. They are cheaper… you dont have to travel, park etc. The disadvantages are that you dont get free drinks and you can´t stare ate the dealers boobs… oh well.
