Land based casinos are phasing out. They're a relic of an older time so perhaps some nostalgia exists, but the online gambling industry will overtake them and consume market share.

  • Increased Chances of Winning
Online casinos have cheaper operating costs because they do not have the same overhead as brick and mortar casinos, such as rent and personnel. On the other hand, the Return To Player rates on online gambling slots is far greater than those on slot machines in traditional casinos. Online slots have an industry-standard return on investment (RTI) of 94% or higher, but stationary slot machines have an average return on investment of 70% to 90%. A UK gambling session at an online casino is significantly more advantageous when one’s primary concern is winning a reward.

Perhaps this applies to some slots but the RTP on table games is the same online as they are in land based casinos. I'm aware that nearly all online casino providers outsource their table games so the RTP are essentially standardized no matter what the casino is. They're identical to land based casino odds.

The downside with online casinos is that you need to put a lot of trust into the platform if you want to deposit your own funds. Land based casinos are bound by strict regulations if they're legal operations (I'm aware of underground operations, I exclude those for obvious reasons). I don't have to second guess the casino if I'm depositing on land based. On the other hand, I'm forced to research an online casino so my deposit doesn't get eaten.

My reason why I prefer online casino rather than Land base is:

  • Easy to deposit
  • Anonymity
  • Could play anytime anywhere

And of course the promotion bonus that we could get from them.
Even before pandemic I already prefer online gambling than land base casino due to those reasons.
I very much agree with this, it is kinda hard for me to stay anonymous in public, I prefer more time alone and gamble anytime I want in online. I feel more safe for myself in online as well, I think it is because I am comfortable in online gambling rather than in real life casino, I don't know if there's anyone has the same reason like to me.

Another reason I could add there is "you'd have less chances of getting infected with covid" since thousands of cases are still being reported in several countries and even though we have solutions it's better to go play online than to risk getting the virus.
I agree, health and safety guaranteed indeed.

If you can't stop yourself to gamble, the best option is to stay at home and just gamble with those crypto casinos that you know and you're good doing it while at home.

The covid virus is still there and unlikely to be eradicated and will be with us until it becomes a normal flu and there's already a vast number of medicine that can easily cure it.

More people are not going to casinos after Covid so sure it's safer at home. There's a YouTuber who went to Vegas I saw it months ago, where he also noticed only a few people, unlike the post covid days. People will always want to be safe.

The adoption of crypto also contributes to the influx of users on crypto casinos whether they use BTC or altcoins, the gamblers turned into an investors of crypto also.

That's it!

Everyone understands the importance of safety from being contracted by the virus even if they're all allowed to go outside in the physical casinos.

Health is important and it is our wealth, no matter how strong you are right now but once you're able to get that virus, you can't do things anymore.

There is no doubt that there were reports that the number of users for online casinos have increased.

  • Accessibility
Although getting dressed up for a night out is exciting, having to do so when you want to spin the reels of your favorite slot machine is not always convenient. Nothing compares to the simplicity with which you can make a simple online minimum deposit £5 and be rewarded with massive bonuses and huge payouts, security measures, quality casino games, and customer support. Technology has enabled a great online gaming experience that is not available at land-based casinos, don’t wait, start now to enjoy casino games from your PC or mobile device.
I prefer online gambling just because of two reasons, firstly due to easy accessibility, I can be at anywhere and gambling, I don't have to visit any gambling shop before I can gamble, sometimes I might not want to go out and I will want to gamble and have fun, with just my mobile phone and internet connection, I can easily have fun.
Secondly, in my neighborhood if people notice that you are a gambler, they will start thinking you are bad person, they always think gamblers are bad people, which is wrong I don't see anything bad in gambling, the only thing I know is that we should gamble responsibly. So i prefer gambling online because nobody will even know that am a gambler if I don't tell anyone, I can be having fun on a low key level.

    There's a reason we visit our favourite online casino more than the land-based casino, whether next door or a couple of blocks away. There is a reason we recommend our favourite online casinos to friends. In this short article, I will highlight some of the reasons why online casino games are becoming popular. Lastly, I hope users will also share their thoughts on this.

    • Accessibility
    Although getting dressed up for a night out is exciting, having to do so when you want to spin the reels of your favorite slot machine is not always convenient. Nothing compares to the simplicity with which you can make a simple online minimum deposit £5 and be rewarded with massive bonuses and huge payouts, security measures, quality casino games, and customer support. Technology has enabled a great online gaming experience that is not available at land-based casinos, don’t wait, start now to enjoy casino games from your PC or mobile device.

    • Savings on Expenses
    It is not simply the time and money you save by not going to a land-based casino that you appreciate. It’s also the food and beverages you’re likely to consume when out and about. You’re unlikely to spend an entire night at a casino without indulging in all of the enticing extras that make it difficult to say no. Traditional casinos confine you to a single location where you may bet and try your luck. Thanks to advances in technology, you may now play casino games from anywhere in the world. To play casino games on an online casino platform allows you to do so from any location, including your home, at work during your lunch break, at the airport, at a restaurant, or anyplace else you want. If it is still early in the morning or you are lying in bed before going to sleep, you may launch your preferred online gambling app and start playing right away. Because you are not constrained by time or distance when gambling, you may create your own timetable.

    • Games of Various Types
    Land-based casinos will never compete with the sheer number of games accessible on the internet nowadays. The 500+ online casino games available in an online casino will be readily apparent to everyone who enters the online casino sites. It’s simple to get extra money by joining the next casino lobby and taking advantage of another 1000 or more dollars there. It’s hard to estimate the precise number of online free casino games that are accessible, so you’ll have to be patient while you work your way through them all. It’s impossible to grow tired of this collection.

    • Plenty of Deposit Options
    In contrast to land-based casinos, which only provide a limited number of payment alternatives to players, online casinos offer various payment options. It’s rather unusual for you to forget about a payment option you have previously signed up for. In addition, even if you are playing from a foreign nation, most online casinos will take your money, as opposed to land-based casinos, where you must first locate a currency conversion kiosk before you can begin to gamble.

    These are just a few of the most compelling reasons online gambling is getting more popular nowadays. As a result of these factors, it should come as no surprise that online gambling will grow more popular in the future. With technological improvements, new features will inevitably be introduced to online casino games, making them more exciting and enjoyable to play online casino games.

    • Increased Chances of Winning
    Online casinos have cheaper operating costs because they do not have the same overhead as brick and mortar casinos, such as rent and personnel. On the other hand, the Return To Player rates on online gambling slots is far greater than those on slot machines in traditional casinos.

A UK gambling session at an online casino is significantly more advantageous when one’s primary concern is winning a reward.

    • Promotions and Bonuses for New Players
    While land-based casinos provide VIP programmes and bonuses to high-rollers, online casinos reward you for playing with as little as £5 in a single transaction. The online gaming and online gambling industry are incredibly competitive, no exception. There are so many operators to pick from that they try to tempt you by offering incentives consistently from the minute you join up. Online casinos offer a wide variety of promotions and bonuses too.

    • Increased Chances of Winning

     
    Even though mathematically we can say there is slight better chance in terms of RTP but welcome to the reality even if the chance of winning is 99% still the 1% can decide our fate and we will lose the bet if we are unlucky at that moment. Online casinos have other expenses like security development which needs high paying workforce, license fee, promotions which all are going from the casinos pocket so it can compensate the rent and salary to some extent.

    Online casinos keep your gambling life private i.e nobody knows you are a gambler, when you are gambling and how much you stake with. Unlike land casinos that people sees all your gambling activities.

    Online casinos gives security i.e saving you from bad guys or robbers when going back home after gambling. I know of someone that won big on land casino,on his way back home he got attacked by bad guys. He didn't go to that particular casino anymore.

    The funny thing is that even when you visit or live in a country that banned gambling, you can still gamble without no one knowing. Only if the casinos expose you to the government but since you are a visitor, you can be fined or pardoned.

    Security. When you play at home through the internet you don't have to worry about being followed on your way back to your house after winning big on that day. On the other hand, that may happen if you play at a land based casino, especially at dangerous, desert areas or at countries where gambling is forbidden, so you have to stick with clandestine casinos.

    No one can compare the benefits of online casinos to offline ones, yet both still have their fair share of benefits depending on what the gambler wants. The easy access and comfortability of online casinos can't be overemphasized, and it gives you the opportunity to your privacy if you so desire. My issue with them is mostly about their fraudulent acts in some cases, they are trying to hide under the umbrella of being online, and believe they are not within the immediate reach of any gambler. But if you use the good ones, you will be just fine.

    It might be better if the OP put a poll in the beginning, at least we can vote why we like playing online as compare to traditional based casinos around.

    I think having a poll about that seems doesn't need anymore as we already know that most people here are not interested in going into land-based casinos. I strongly believed that even though the pandemic didn't happen, I'm sure online gambling is still preferred by the majority here.

    For me, if there's a chance, others should try giving a shot at visiting land-based casinos, maybe just for experienced. Of course, it is just optional. I've been gambling for many decades now that's why there's excitement for me whenever I play in a physical casino. As I mentioned previously, these casinos are not those usual big casinos that everyone thinks where the luxury standard applies. There are small to mid casinos around.

    Of course online casinos and betting shops have some advantages for gamblers, which mainly save our time, but none of them can not convey the atmosphere of the same Las Vegas or other major entertainment centers, where you can not only play a variety of gambling games, but also to spend time in a friendly company.

    Convenience is one of the reasons why most gamblers prefer online casinos over physical ones. Through our gadgets, we're able to enjoy gambling anytime and anywhere. Its accessibility makes our gambling journey easier and we will also be able to save a little as well as control our funds since we could play comfortably where we can focus and create better decisions alone.

    Is there something to add here? I think OP covered it all.  Cheesy

    Accessibility is the biggest reason why I prefer online casinos and sports betting now. Just imagine how much money and time you have saved instead of waiting in line, gas consumption, and the hassle of going to the betting side just for one bet.
    The other perks are a bonus, like the option for payment and VIP treatment if you reach a certain level or wagered amount.
    I think this will go on even if land-based casinos are starting to open up.

    But I still miss playing poker physically. So I may still visit the place when it's safe.

    Goodnight, ohh Leo!!! 🦅
    Alot of Peeps don't like getting stressed at all; you know how much time and energy it takes to sit under the roof of a casino-house ?? Sometimes, you've got some stuffs to run-up for yourself and also, a game to meet up on time; So you'd have to abandon whatever you had on your schedule and run to a casino shop, isn't that crazy?😂
    Doing anything from the comfort of your home is something that anyone would prefer over the latter; infact, if it's possible to sit a-home and work in the government offices, then we'll have peeps doing that intermittently.
    You see....ehhhhh.....the joy of being in a compacted edifice, with different profound gamblers --just like yourself, having multiple gazes at different stakes and ways another gambler would prefer to bet on the same game you have in mind, that'll be much of fun and encouragement.
    The both have their impartations; depends on what you want.

    You forgot to mention security and privacy. This is the most important advantage of online casino to Land based casino because you don’t need to worry for your safety once you win big amount on online casino since no one knows your identity unless you broadcast it publicly while Land based casino will give you danger if ever thief is watching your win history on casino and steal your profit outside the casino and worst if your family become involved when this thief intrude your house for your money.

    I can't pick either online casino or land based casino because each of them are different.

    Usually if I want to gamble with my friends, I will going to land based casinos since it's more exciting to see someone hit a jackpot on the machine slots and we can chill together talk about anything we want.

    While if I want to gamble alone, I will choose online casino since it's easy to access and I can sit on my couch to enjoy every spin I click.

    So anyway, I applied as a merit source :)
    Getting access to a casino from your bedroom is defenitely a good option for those who are privacy concerned added to it the chance to deposit with cryptocurrency as an icing on the cake.

    Land based casinos should not be compared like that, those are different experience mainly attracting tourists and big names. More like a one night outing to a club and hence have their own space. Of course addictive gambling at either of these are bad and has the same outcome, but if done as a once per year thing, I think its worth the experience.

    Some local casinos are often the haunts of many local gamblers. They would always go there for the ambience, the people and the locality. It becomes a personal preference only then.

    Online casinos are very convenient for lazy people who like to lie on the couch drinking grog and betting at the casino. 

    The Internet and virtual reality have made a wide variety of entertainment accessible to people.  And this is very good! 

    However, real offline casinos, in my opinion, have very big advantages compared to online casinos. 

    Off-line casinos are primarily valuable for their atmosphere.  Men in tailcoats, beautiful girls in evening dresses, imperturbable and dexterous croupiers, charming waitresses... All this reproduces the atmosphere of the James Bond movie "Casino Royale".

    In an offline casino, you can imagine yourself as an aristocrat, and going to an offline casino is an exciting adventure!

    Your points are really simplified and factual .
    One of the benefits of online casinos is the fact that it also saves you the possibility of engaging in an argument with other players a d your safety when playing as one plays the game at the convenience of their homes.

    But remember that wat ever has advantages also lies disadvantages as online casinos are mostly for developed countries with nice power supply and a strong network, as undeveloped countries would need the presence of landed casinos to be able to play game.
    The OP mostly spoke of the advantages of online casinos and remember when there are advantages, there are also disadvantages. Below are the disadvantages of online casinos
    * Convenience & Comfort
    * Risk of Rogue Operators
    * Cashout Times
    * Lack of Personal Interaction
    * Transaction Fees
    * Legal & Regulatory Issues
