At onlinecasino.ie we have on occasions been asked whether it is better to gamble at an online casino or a land based casino and there really is no definitive answer as it must be a question of personal preference. There is no doubt that land based casinos offer a lot of atmosphere and places such as Las Vegas can be a fun place to go whether you gamble or not but on the whole, online casinos can offer several advantages. First and foremost is the fact that you do not have to go anywhere which means no transport worries or drink driving concerns and you can dress how you like, eat what you like and even smoke if you like; add to that no pushing and shoving at the roulette tables or waiting to be seated because the card tables are full and the whole experience becomes much more relaxed. It must also be said that in most casinos the minimum stakes are much higher than in an online casino which may not worry some but it will others. The chances of winning will be pretty much the same at roulette or blackjack or similar casino games although it is always worth checking on the slot machines that the payout percentage is at least above 90%. In terms of choice of games, whilst a casino will have most of the popular games you will find more variation in the online version and depending upon which casino chain you are in the jackpots at online casinos will always be more than land based casinos (this is especially true in Ireland). Last but not least, your online casino will give you the chance to learn games by playing for free which a land based casino will never do. In summary going out to a casino can be fun but online casinos have more to offer.
