Online Casino Gambling --- Casino News

Same, Same, or Different?

There’s a pretty contentious debate in the gambling industry about just what gamblers “get” from the online casino gambling industry in contrast to the experience offered at land gambling venues. Brick and mortar gambling venues are quick to point out that gambling with real live smells and sounds around is an entirely different experience than the more sanitized experience offered at online casinos. There is certainly a point to be had there, internet gambling is certainly more convenient for many people all over the world to take part in the pastime, but they are not getting the same experience as the real live gambling venues serving up some alcohol, pumping the A/C, and the inviting glitz as far as the eye can see.

That begs the question then, are the online casino games as good as their land gambling counterparts? The answer really lies not only in the desired experience, but also in which specific game is in question. Slots games translate easily to the Web because they were already computer based terminals and now the interface is just a keyboard in laptop screen instead of the actual slot machine sitting in front of the player.

Roulette is also a key game gaining excitement at the online casinos as the user-interfaces become more realistic and gamblers are able to watch the roulette action unfold on their screens…but perhaps this is one of those games that just isn’t the same as in person roulette gambling. Sure, the mechanics of the game are the same, and some brick and mortar establishment have even taken to automated roulette wheels with video-interfaces, but traditionally roulette with a man spinning the wheel is still it’s own kind of excitement and one that is similar to the online gambling world, but different in the end.
