Topic: Interesting Facts About Online Casinos - page 3. (Read 366 times)
Fact number 8 is a well known one.That will continue to be the top for many years to come and the reason is simple,in slot machines we have a huge variety of slots,themes,sounds,graphics and what is most important different bonus games mechanics in almost every slot,almost all of them have a unique bonus.Beside this in most of these games you can have the option to buy in the bonus game or feature game when you are feeling that luck is not on your side at specific times so you don't go away bored without trying the bonus game.
Fact number 7 is probably the surprising fact for me since i've been playing at Evolution gaming countless times already and I still haven't seen that tipping feature. I would've tipped a few dealers if the feature was more visible or maybe it's only limited to a few tables or casinos.
The last one was obvious but it's still an interesting one knowing it has a high house edge you would've expected fewer people to play the game but it still remains popular as more providers make different variations of slots.

My curiosity drove me to research and create this topic. Covid -19 saw the proliferation of online casinos and the statistics of have been increasing by the day. Today, my intention is to with you some interesting facts about online casinos. Some you may know while others you may not know. I hope you learn a thing or two.
FACT 1: The First Online Casino Hit the Web in 1994
It’s hard to believe that online casino gaming has been around for more than 25 years, but that is in fact the case. Developed by Microgaming, a company undoubtedly ahead of its time, the first online casino popped up just about 100 years exactly after the first slot machines started making their way onto the casino floor.
FACT 2: At any time, 1 in 10 internet users is gambling.
11% of internet activity worldwide is made up of gamblers using online casinos.
FACT 3: Roulette is “the devil’s game.”
Roulette is sometimes called “the devil’s game” because the total of all the numbers on the wheel is 666 hence it is often associated with the devil’s supposed number.
FACT 4: In some places, citizens can ONLY gamble online.
There’s at least one place in the world where residents are banned from gambling in person, but they can still get their kicks online. That place? Monaco. Yes, Monaco with the glamorous, world famous casinos that feature in James Bond movies. It seems only tourists and superspies get to step inside that elegant world.
FACT 5: Online gambling and gender
Online casino gamblers are predominantly male. It is considered that about 11% of those people who access the Internet actively use gambling websites. Annual statistics say that over 80% of the people in the online casinos are going to be male. Of course, this does incorporate all forms of Internet gambling, so betting is also included. Another interesting fact is that gamblers tend to be over the age of 30 years, and this serves them well because gambling problems are predominantly in the younger male gambler who is 7.5 times more likely to become addicted and have a financial crisis than their female counterparts.
I must add that this is dependent on the location. For example this research suggest that more than half of all active Swedish players are women
FACT 6: 90% of slots players opt for online casino gaming than at land-based casinos
Only 10% of punters choose to play slots at a land based casino while 90% of the players choose online casinos. This means that it is more interesting to play games online.
FACT 7: You can tip the dealer in online live casino games
Just like in land based casinos, some operators like Evolution gaming provide the player to tip the live dealer in appreciation for good service in case they wish to do so.
FACT 8: Most Popular Game
Not only are slots almost exclusively played online these days, but they are also the most popular game. Perhaps the rules of table games such as roulette and craps are too hard to get the hang of or maybe people just like the mindless fun after a long day in the office. But whatever the reason slots are by far and away the most popular games to play.
