Top 5 Reasons - Should You be Gambling Online?
September 22nd, 2008 | by admin |
Why is online gambling the latest craze to hit the Internet? Let’s
face it the casino business is big bucks. Games played for money have
found their way into any permitting city across the world. The
epicenter has always tended to be Vegas but now a new variety is on the
increase and it is called online gambling. So why will online gambling
eventually overtake the glitzy world of concrete Vegas?
Gamble… When and where?
The
beauty of online gambling is accessibility. You can gamble wherever you
can get the Internet. With the future advent of wireless technology
through cell phones, PDA’s and wireless Internet the future is near
boundless for gambling. No longer do you have to walk, catch a train,
valet park, take a taxi, or fly to a casino to gamble. You can also use
different instant payment options which make it that much easier. Time
is not an issue when you’re gambling online, and you don’t have to be
home at 2am to see the spouse. You should set limits, but you can set
them, not others… if you’re lucky. But how secure are you gambling
online, is it safe?
Fort Knox?
Have you ever seen
Ocean’s Eleven with Brad Pitt? If you have, you’ll know all about the
security features of modern casinos. If you’re gambling online, how
safe is it for you? First off, if you make a purchase with your credit
card, your 0% liable with most credit cards for fraudulent charges.
There are other online options like Neteller (a bank account deposit
and withdrawal system), online checks, and wire transferring. Usually,
when you go to an online casino, you are asked to download their
software. This software is what makes the casino secure. When you
connect through their software you are using SSL technology, which is
what most Internet commerce sites like Amazon.com use. If you’re ever
in a bind with not being credited with your money either depositing or
withdrawing you can contact the casino, which usually have a customer
service center. Do you have a powerful ally if you gamble online?
It’s not revealed to most…
Your
online winning at a poker table, but you couldn’t at your buddies
house… Why? Secret identity. Your fellow poker players online don’t
know your history, and they don’t see you. You could be jumping up and
down for minutes with a pocket pair of aces and they wouldn’t know it.
This is one of the major benefits of being online, and it will take you
some time to master. Remember people can use this against you. So be
aware, and be on top of it, and get a head start first.
Do you have what it takes?
How
experienced are you at Texas holdem? Blackjack? 7-card stud? Don’t have
many friends that are good players? Do you want to improve your game?
You can online. With tens of thousands online at one particular time,
you can improve your game… quickly. You even have the option to gamble
with play money until your ready to move on to the real thing. You may
ask, that’s all great, but I still love just going to the casino and
throwing down some bucks. Do you deserve something extra?
Nobody gives it away for free, or do they?
A
brilliant marketing campaign has incentives, and online casinos
attended marketing school. This marketing method actually helps you!
Online casinos give away up to 100% matching deposit bonuses. For
example if you deposit $25, you are credited with an extra $25 all on
the casinos tab. Why is this great? You get free gambling money, and
you can use leverage. Instead of betting $10, you can bet $20, and win
$40! One online casino that I have frequented gave me a 200% bonus!
This is the best way you’ll get ahead in the gambling world. Signup
bonuses are exceptional, so quickly take advantage of them so you can
get that easy money!

Why should online gambling be outlawed?
Just wondering what the reasons are that people are opposed to it, and why it is even an issue. I don't see the harm in it but maybe I'm overlooking something. Enlighten me?

I think it's just the US government trying to throw its weight and values around the globe. And they're pissed they can't get all the tax money. Greedy SOBs.

It is a disgusting abuse of our freedom and rights in this country.
The House of Representatives passed a bill on Tuesday that outlaws poker and casino games online, even forcing ISPs to block hyperlinks to such sites. However, weirdly online lotteries, horse and dog racing and certain fantasy sports betting is still going to be legal. Of course white collar gambling otherwise known as buying and selling stock online is still legal.
Some 23 million Americans like to play poker online. Millions more enjoy home games and playing in casinos. In a recent poll an overwhelming 90% of Americans believed in freedom to play poker without the government interfering.
This law if it is enacted is just political nonsense that does not reflect the will of the majority of Americans. What's worse there are plenty of real issues in this country that really need to be addressed. This is not one of those issues.

I believe this is anti-american. The government should not be able to say what we do with our money as long as we are not hurting anyone. I don't see how what I do with my paycheck is the governements business.
This is what I think of what they are trying to do *(&(%^#)@^@)#%*&. I will continue to promote online gambling until they come and take my computer. It is how I put food on the table and clothes on my children's back!

They will outlaw the Hell out of Online Gambling, something that gives old, lonely farts pleasure. Take away their ability to use credit cards to bet on favorite teams and cards. Give them 5 years Federal Prison time.
Government needs to take more time arresting Child Porn sites. U.S. has their head up their asses.

They havn't figured out a way to tax it. All the companies are registered in foreign countries where the tax rates are LOW LOW LOW.

I think it should be outlawed because there is no way of knowing if people are playing a game that operates the way it should. In real casinos there is strict oversight to ensure the fairness of the games, and you have to be told information about payback on slots and about the rules of games.

It's because the US hasn't spent the time or effort to research, regulate, and tax the industry. In their laziness, they're going to try and outlaw it instead.
In addition, some of the competing industries shove millions into the politicians coffers to get it passed. They also don;t like the fact that they think it takes money from their own wonderful gambling institution, lotto and lottery. Kind of a mafia way to control their own interests.
Move to another country, I am.
