Rise of the Live Online Casino

September 1, 2012 by Sally

Going online to gamble in a virtual casino has become a popular pastime amongst a huge variety of people from all walks of life.  The sheer nature of the Internet has allowed people to do this 24/7, from the comfort of their armchair and without any need to dress up. 

Recent advances in technology and information security have moved the online gambling scene into a new era.  Today’s online casinos are well designed, easy to use and extremely safe – in fact, more safe than land based casinos.  Some also have the added benefit of being able to participate in ‘live’ casino games that you would previously have only been able to play by visiting a real life casino.

 

People do it to have fun and experience that buzz of adrenaline that only playing live can provide.  With online gaming and gambling being a favourite pastime of millions of people, it was only a matter of time before people went online to play it ‘live’.

 

The exponential rise in live casino sites has created a vast array of gambling sites offering exciting games to play.  This choice can be baffling for anyone new to the scene, and as with most activities, there are perils and pitfalls to be aware of before jumping in with both feet and handing over your hard-earned cash.

 

Live Casino offers a wealth of information about live casinos, what they are and how to get involved.  Here are three of their top tips:

 

Try before you buy

One of the main benefits of playing online rather than entering a land-based casino is that you don’t have to be an expert.  There are plenty of online casinos that allow you to try your hand at several games before committing any money.  You don’t have the embarrassment of someone watching over your shoulder, so are able to protect your pride as well as your pocket whilst you learn the ropes.

 

Bonuses and Promotions

The online casino world is a highly competitive one, and there is likely to be several sites vying for your business.  They do this by tempting you with seriously attractive offers, such as free cash, casino credits and cash-back rewards designed to test the willpower of even the most experienced of players.  However, as with most things in life, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

 

Remember that biggest doesn’t always mean best and you should check the deposit and play qualifying requirements, and ensure it includes your favourite game, before committing to anything.

 

Better to be safe than sorry

Site safety and security are major concerns for the majority of online players.  They want to know their information will be protected and safe before sharing financial details with them.  There are a few checks that can be carried out:

 

  • Is the site digitally encrypted?  This is the highest level of security available and is most commonly used by banks.
  • Does a recognised authority regulate the site?
  • Does the site offer a Secure Socket Layer (SSL) for payments?
