The Evolution of Online Gambling |
Barely 10 years old, the online gambling industry has gone from strength to
strength and continues to grow each day.
The advent of online gambling has given people around the globe greater choice
about how, where and when they wish to gamble, bringing the best online gambling
casinos and games onto their PC's and, in some places around the world, onto their cell phones.
Traditional gamblers can now gamble from the comfort and privacy of their own homes or
offices, without incurring the high costs of travel, accommodation and meals
associated with traditional land casino destinations such as Las Vegas, Reno or
Atlantic City.
The online casino games run off virtually the same software you would in
land casinos, slot machines, video poker machines and progressive
jackpot machines for example.
In terms of the odds governing online card, dice and wheel games, multi-million
dollar online gambling software vendors, such as Playtech, Microgaming and
Cryptologic to name a few, ensure that all of their games are encrypted with the
best RNG software.
RNG or Random Number Generation software ensures that all online games are conducted
and paid out fairly and completely at random, exactly as if you were physically playing the equivalent
game in a land casino.
What land casinos do that online casinos don't is offer their players 'comps'
(complementaries) in the form of free hotel accommodation, meal vouchers and
show vouchers.
However, what online casinos offer their players to make up for this and to
incentivize them, are Welcome or Sign Up Bonuses. These are free bonuses that are
added to players' playing funds, depending on the size of the funds they
initially deposited.
As is the case in most new industries, the online gambling industry has spawned
many non-profit online casino 'watchdog' organizations and associations to
monitor and advise casino operators and suppliers.
These organizations, such as eCOGRA for example, ensure that the rights of both
online gamblers and the online casinos are protected and upheld, and that the
online gambling industry as a whole is legitimate and upstanding.
