Bitcoin Forum

I don't think there is a topic created about this, so I'm creating one.

Physical casinos do not have clocks or windows on the gaming floor, and they offer free drinks like wine energy drinks, and food so the gamblers will be hyper focused this is why gamblers spend hours without even knowing they have already spent, while online casinos offer free spins, rakeback, and cashback so you can continue to play to level up to enjoy these perks.

So between the two where are you more hyper-focused and how many hours do you spend on one compared to the other?

These days, of course, I am more into online casinos. This is because it is quite easy to access online casinos anywhere you want. Been in physical casinos before but in today's situation, I prefer to go online and just play for a bit. And I guess, a lot of forum gamblers as well are more into online than in physical casino these days. Let's see how the poll results will be for this topic...

When pandemic hit the humanity, I believe online gambling became popular and some traditional gamblers found their way playing online. And up until today, online gambling continues to grow as more and more online casinos/bookies are being launched everyday.

I experienced playing in both physical and online casino. All I can say is I’m both hyper focused on gambling both since my money is involved per game so it doesn’t matter to the location because my main objective on gambling is the result of the game.

You don’t even mind checking clock even if you are playing online since you are focus on winning the game. Actually, I’m more time conscious when playing on physical casino because I need to return home on time due to the schedule of ride back on my town is only limited.

Online casinos spend more time than physical casinos because they have never been there, when they are already in a casino, whatever it is, whether physical / online, they will forget about time when they are playing too cool, especially when they are lucky, the usual game wants to continue without knowing time.

That's what I do online casinos offer more bonuses and free spins along with rakeback I think online casinos are more in demand.
But still both physical and online casinos will remain in high demand.

The first time I went to physical casinos, it was like a big theater function room with no windows and clocks and there's staff to always check on what you need betting is quite addictive too, one of the perks of being a high roller in a physical casino they treat you like a king and you have an open credit compared to online casinos where you have to deposit and be on your own when playing.

I am more hyper-focused online because when I'm playing in physical casinos, my concern is my work tomorrow, and I need to commute to go home. On online casinos, I can always see time on my PC, I can schedule my session, and I can log off and head to bed.

Most users here are likely going to choose online. There may be people who still go to offline casinos today but this I think is because they have tried and enjoyed there several times. But those who haven't really been there for a while already, I think they lost the taste of going there unless they really have a lot of money to spend and are determined to have some good times with long-lost buddies.

It's easier to get distracted when you are under alcohol effect and at public areas, so I would say it's harder to get focused at physical casinos with so much temptation around like drinks, snacks and people talking to each other. At online casinos you can turn your place into a perfect environment without any interferences, what allows you to raise your focus to your gambling session.

For that reason, it's not unsual to lose control over time when playing online. Some gamblers see a whole day passing through a blink of an eye due to being hyper focused on their bets. If there isn't someone around to call their attention, they continue deeply emerged on the gambling games as there wasn't anything else to do in life.

Hell yeahhh! I really like this movie and specifically this first movie since it’s so funny to see their solid bonding. The experience of playing in physical casino with buddies is the best experience on physical casino which I forgot to consider when I first reply to this thread.

This picture reminds me my good old days to my olds friends that is now working overseas. We do a casual gambling on physical casino and they are the one who introduced me to a physical casino since I’m shy before to enter on the casino on my own without any experience on playing.

Gambling friends will surely makes you lost track time.

When you are in the physical casino and being treated like a VIP you'll likely not gonna stop until you are satisfied or you loss all your money. Imagine, you are getting free drinks, that would lead you to be more aggressive in gambling and you can either win something or loss everything, but most of the time the latter. While when you are gambling online, based on my experience, I could quite anytime I like and not really fun with bonuses as I understand myself it's not design for us to win.

The world has moved to the digital stage now for the youths, and Covid 19 made a lot of people to understand what privacy in gambling is. I gamble only online these days and I cannot remember the last time that I gambled in a physical casino.

I was gambling in my room alone before in my room before now, and that is one thing that males me fall in love with an online casino, since you don't need to stress yourself or see anyone before you can gamble, but just with your internet and device, you are already in the casino gambling. I can entertain myself while I am gambling.

I voted the online casinos not because I'm more hyper focused on the online based casinos but because I haven't been to a physical casino before because here in my county you find casinos most in expensive hotels where few people can afford to visit.

I just thought of the windows and drinks and the other things offered in casinos and the free spin and the rest that are offered in online casinos as a bait to keep you gambling forgetting about every other thing that matters to you instead you stay focused gambling all day. No wonder after some minutes or hours of play you get a free spin just to keep you going it's psychological.

Between physical and online, I believe physical casinos has distractions as much as online casinos too, let's use married people as examples, when the kids run around it's a bigger distraction because you will certainly be concerned with what they are doing. While in physical casinos you can find drunks making mess of themselves and other things could also serve as distractions so for me it's almost same. It only depends on ones choice where to gamble not even the focus fact.

I focus most on online gambling. This is because it is very easy to access and also that I have privacy. Nobody will know that I am gambling. Offline casinos are the best in term of fun and entertainment but I visit the online casino more often because I can visit the site on my phone and laptop at anytime of the day. I also still feel excited while gambling online.

You can be distracted more on physical casinos than on online casinos. Physical casinos are more lively which is the cause of it.

Posting in the bitcoin forum expecting people to answer anything else other than online casinos?  ;D I don't really get this post.

I wish we had reached a point where physical casinos would accept crypto, but we're just not there yet. So really it's just another nobrainer. People using crypto have to play online as there aren't many alternatives. The other issue is that there aren't that  many physical casinos to begin with. So for the majority of the world options are very limited for physical casinos. No only is the legislation usually crazy, also the barrier of entry to start a physical casino business is huge and many have gone bankrupt in the past.

Surely there's some advantages to physical casinos but for me I'd rather sit and play at the comfort of my own home. Many people of older generations would rather have a physical casino but oftentimes they don't live close to one, so it's not even possible. Most of us end up resorting to online play for these reasons.

Sincerely, I don't do physical casinos, I only walked past them every morning when going to work years ago and that is how I always know that some people are into gambling and their numbers are growing, but I can say that not all physical casinos lack windows, some do have windows.

In a country where electricity is not even stable, and the economy is hard, why won't they have a space where fresh air can go through? Unless it is an underground casino that is not registered, and illegal casinos are not good even for the gamblers, because when there is a raid you are not innocent even if you are just a gambler.

If your physical casino is offering food and drinks there is a purpose behind it, coming from someone who doesn't like things like me I suspect that they are intentionally doing this for gamblers to lose their mind and do the wrong betting, whatever you choose to do, never take freebies in a casino.

I focused more on online gambling, I wouldn't be a gambler today if there is no online gambling, because I am able to become a gambler without anyone knowing, I like it this way even if somehow physical casinos are better.

No other answer, it is obvious Online because physical casinos are not available in my country since gambling is considered as illegal activity.
If I want to gamble in physical casino, I have to go abroad (maybe to Singapore) and it will cost me a lot of money LOL.
So online casino is the best option for gamblers in my country.
How many hours I spend? I can say the average because it will different from one session to other session depending on some factors such as my spare time, how much money I have to spend, how is my luck, etc.

I don't have much references in the case of physical/brick and mortar casinos, I have mostly tried online casinos and I must say they are quite good at getting gamblers hooked up on their games by several means, even though we could have access to a clock/time.
If I was to visit brick and mortar casino, I would probably not allow myself to over stay most than necessary and set an alarm on my phone, so I can leave when I truly need to.

By the way, I always thought it could be kind of a big innovation if online casinos somehow managed to cork together with takeaway food providers for them to send free meals and drinks to their gamblers, but I assume the logistic to pull something like that off must be a nightmare.

This is a "Trench" topic of the #TBT type, of course this has been discussed on this board, obviously the context is different, but the objective is the same. They are two totally different things, in fact, what needs to be clarified is that the variance does not change, and of course depending on the game, the rounds of games per hour change, the amount of bets you can make online is not same.
And! Focus/concentration is different in a live casino, you know, the focus in relation to an offline and online casino,really is very obvious.

OP I don't know if you were just exaggerating about the physical casino shops offering free beverages because here in my place there is absolutely no such services.
There is also hungry in town so I think if that be definitely the casinos would shutdown because hungry gamblers would always be ready to consume all that edibles. Lol


I am definitely going for online casinos because I can utilize those free bonuses and free spinning as privilege to keep me rolling with more chances to game.more. Luckily I could win with the free offers.

I don't care about the food and all that the physical casinos may offer. Infact, it even feels Irresponsible of me eating in a gambling hall full of people when I know it is not a restaurant. I will always have them when I get home so the online casinos offers is amiable to me.

I think the gamblers are more focused when they are online gambling as they are alone and they can better focus on the game. In physical casino one usually go with friends, and even if one go alone, many things may distract the focus of gamblers.

These distractions can include the noises and excitement in the casino and the interactions with friends or other players. Also, the overall atmosphere of the casino sometimes is enough to distract the player's intentions like wines or girls in the gambling casino. All of these factors can make it even more challenging for a gambler to stay focused on their strategy and game.

I love online casinos the more because I value my privacy and anonymity a lot. My country suffers a lot of security issues and the last thing I want to do is win huge funds on a physical casino. The last time I won a very considerable  amount in a physical casino, my whole neighborhood heard of it and everybody were  greeting and hailing me in expectation of me tipping them and buying drinks for any group of guys that  gathers together. The pressure was much on me that I was scared of my safety and had to travel for two months so the environment could stabilize and I could return to live my normal life. These unnecessary attention is what I detest in offline casinos and I believe online casinos is best for me. I lose and win with rest of mind.

The two gambling environments, physical and online casinos, are both with strategies to keep the interest of their players alive. Brick-and-mortar casinos create an atmosphere that keeps the gambler focused on the game by not displaying clocks or natural light inside the casino and providing free drinks and food for gamblers on the playing table; these make sure that the gambler does not notice how much time they spend playing.

On the flip side, online casinos use various incentive-based systems including free spins and cashback bonuses to provide additional rewards— to those seeking more from their gaming experience along with opportunities where they can level up during gameplay.

The issue of allocating time and deciding the amount of attention to one task as opposed to another is subjective. Some individuals may find themselves more focused and involved in gaming at a brick-and-mortar casino.

If you ask on online forums then people will have online casinos to spend a lot of time at and I see no one voting for physical casinos. It's different when you ask on a real forum.

I don't go to physical casinos because it doesn't exist in my country it's obviously banned so most people go to online casinos which is easier even though there is a ban here the government won't know that people are playing in online casinos by spending many hours to play.

Is it true that physical casinos offer free food? Isn't that something you have to pay for?
You don't spend much playing at online casinos especially when betting on Sportsbook, make a bet then close again and reopen the account after the game is over.

If for example playing on the slot then until the balance runs out say $20 at most it takes 10-20 minutes after that it's done.

between the two I'd probably spend more time on a land-based casino than an online casino. I mean, I rarely go to a land-based casino and if I go there I'd like to gamble, enjoy myself and have fun, my funds are also higher compared to when I am gambling in online casinos and most of the time that I am there I am with either friends or family or relatives (adult family/relative). when it comes to online casinos, I have a fixed amount of funds, I am more cautious with my money(not that I am not when I am in a land-based casino) and the time spend when I am gambling in an online casino. anyway, the bottom line is when I am in a land-based casino I am there to fully enjoy the experience of a land-base casino.

I never visit a brick and mortar casino because they are not available where I live. So when I want to gamble, I have no other choice but to gamble online. Thus, I cannot make a direct comparison regarding the hyper focus between online casinos and brick and mortar casinos.

But when it comes to the offers provided by physical and online gambling. It seems that physical casinos offer a wide variety of traditional games, and provide a different atmosphere to online gambling, because gamblers can directly interact, see and feel directly. But on the other hand, online gambling is more personal, it can be played anywhere and at any time. With the convenience provided by online gambling, I think people will spend more of their time and money in online gambling.

Thankfully I've got the discipline not to get obsessed/hyper focus on gambling no matter what, I can't recall ever gambling in a physical casino before, maybe it's an informal thing or technically not a physical casino but I can't remember. Online casinos's probably my jam because I do like it a lot, not to mention that it's more convenient for me, I can play slots to pass the time and hopefully see for myself that I might make some win but I don't put on too much hope, I know what hope in gambling does to a person, it's ugly and I don't like that it will have a possibility that might happen to me, prevention is better than cure.

I think there's not a lot of difference between the two though, feels like to me, the difference is the convenience, anything to me is mostly similar, maybe the physical casinos do have the bottle service or bottomless alcohol but that's just an online deposit in a different direction if not extra steps, they both entice you to stay longer in your gambling session in their casino.

I am more on the online casino, since I am busy with work and my time only revolves from work to home vice versa, that is why I only gamble online.
It is easy for me to access and I don't need to go to any land base casino to play, it is also easier to manage my time that way.

Being hyper focus is not a function of whether you gambling using online casino or physical casino, it rather has to do with the money the gambler is using to play, paying that so much attention focusing energy as not to lose the money so cheaply, that's where the hyper-focus is drawn from basically.

This photo just reminds me of some weekends where I had to go gamble at my usual physical casino house all because I just want to have my gambling mixed with an undiluted fun among my partners in crime (friends). The bad aspect about having this kind of crazy friends is that you can't really know where and how to feel pained after losing all your money to the house. You'll literally be having a bitter-sweet feeling in between. :'(

Aside this some people just prefer to have privacy and gamble just on online casinos. The ease that online casinos provide their customers make people that are gambling today to be more than in the old time when there was no online casinos. I am also a kind of person that is most often busy with works, I only have few time for myself during the week. But there are time of holidays and vacations that I can go for physical casinos but most often I gamble online.

I haven't even used a physical casino before in my life, so I have not enjoyed the benefits listed here; it has only been on movies and YouTube. I do see how people play at physical casinos, but there is little to nothing about physical casinos that I have seen around my country.
 
So I can only attest to what I have tested before, which is the online casino. I do love the service I receive from the ones I use; it's only traditional gambling houses that I have used before.

If not all the types of gambling I do today are all done online, and I'm happy with the energy I get from it, maybe it will change if I eventually try out a physical casino some day.

A person who is good in controlling themself will easily able to control the time they spend gambling whether it is in a Physical casino or an online casino and this is because they show strong discipline. But an undisciplined gambler who lacks self control will waste time gambling even when they have no reason to.
 
It is not a matter of where you gamble, but the state of discipline that the gambler possesses.

There have been a bunch of this the same thread.

It takes a while going to the physical casinos and if I'm living there nearly, I'd probably just spend time going there but no.

That's why I won't say that I am hyper focused but I'd say that online casino is what I prefer nowadays. The convenience that it provides to every gambler is timely.

It saves a lot of time instead of going there physically.

Online casino has the most convenient ways to enjoy your time and spending it for so many hours without any hassle. Physical casino needs effort make yourself present on the venue, you spend money for transportation and food. Unlike with virtual casino, it can be experienced anywhere particularly at home or wherever place that you're going to prefer with. However, it's just my opinion I don't think other gamblers would agree with my preference since we're having each personal perspective.

I enjoy doing online casino because of perks like free spin and cashback and besides I'm doing it while i'm in a comfortable place or area of my house, I have no time limit because it is very accessible using my mobile device unlike gambling in a physical casino that you have to ride many kilometers aways from home just to gamble. I can get the perks that I get at the physical casino even if I gamble using an online casino, it's even better because I can do other things that can't be done inside the physical sites without anyone watching or prohibiting.

I like online casinos, because with easy access we can play wherever we want and whatever we want. Also, with Kasnio online I always get cashback once a week, even though it doesn't guarantee a win, at least it can be a source of luck if you can be lucky by just relying on cashback, because I have experienced it too. Also, in my environment, there are many people who like online casinos because of the ease of access, because with a physical casino, of course we have to travel to the physical casino first.

Sometimes I admit that online casinos spend more time unconsciously when the game flow is good so that the balance maintained or even increases, apart from that, in my opinion, online casinos do have quite a lot of advantages, such as easy access with just a cellphone. course, free spins, big multipliers if you're lucky. I think currently online casinos are more popular, or indeed only in my area.

Everyone have their preferences concerning that but I think I'm also more into the online casino than the physical casino, i don't love to gamble in crowded place it's not my thing and I won't focus or concentrate properly when I'm in a physical casino especially when the population at that particular time is very much, I'll rather love placing my bets just like you, in a comfortable place at home.

 Currently a lot of individuals I'd would love to gamble online due to lots of advantages that comes with it but then It think their lot some stuffs that hinders people to go to the physical casino instead of  betting online, for instance lack of understanding of how to register or bet online and also lack of a good device to gamble online with. Some individuals are not used to modern faculties therefore it's a big setback to them gambling online.

I'm not a type of gambler who spends more than a couple of hours in 1 gambling session, but If I am to choose between the 2, I can say physical casinos are better. I have never been into a physical casino for years now since I become a family man, but I could definitely say, If a physical casino offers an enticing promo and compliments, It will for sure make someone stay longer than they usually spend time on an online casinos. It's really different when you are actually seeing people around like you making bets at their favorite slot or play PVP card games, than just betting at the comfort of your room. Boredom is inevitable when you're gambling online.

Definitely online casino is the best online casino gives more better option and features than physical. Online casino saves you the stress of not walking down the street to stake some games even if the environment is not friendly or favourable. You may decide to stay all day indoors without any body noticing your move or even know you are gambling. In other words online casino gives you privacy than physical.

Yea that is one of those things I am talking about, the pandemic is another example of the important of online gambling which is privacy. It made people to stay at home  and be gambling at ease without any interference of any kind , expecially keeping people safe from contacting the virus. So apparently apart from pandemic there are other communicable diseases which can be avoided due to online gambling compeard to physical gambling.

I prefer online casinos, because they are easier to access from my smartphone and they offer lower deposits. Maybe other people will also think the same as me, because online casinos are more attractive to users nowadays - there are lots of bonuses, offers and prizes that make people more interested in playing on online platforms. Especially for people who are very lazy about interacting with other people, online casinos will be their best choice since they don't need to meet other people and they can play from the room or place they want without getting tired.

I don't think the free drinks and snacks while gambling will make you focus to gamble, it just make you enjoy hanging around in there. Because it happen to me, whenever I gamble on physical casinos, I'm more focus to enjoy the free drinks and snacks, also have a small conversation with other gamblers.

But, in online casino I'm more focus to gamble since there's no one can disturb me.

So far, everyone voted online casino, I agree with them.

I guess I'm more focused on online casinos, but I have not gambled for too long. That will only make me experience a lot of losses. I only play enough gambling and it can give me pleasure.

I can get a drink or snack because I gamble at home. I don't need to go anywhere and enjoy my time by gambling. After finishing gambling, I can also immediately do other activities.

Be careful for those who often gamble for too long. This can make them unaware that they have been gambling for too long and there is a risk of losing more money. We have to be responsible when playing gambling and don't need to use a lot of money.

Everything will depend on individual conditions, I personally would now clearly prefer playing and betting in online casinos, after all I can play very relaxed and can really play while resting.
Don't care about the profits that can be taken from physical casinos or also in online casinos because now the main goal is to have fun and entertain yourself, in online casinos I also slowly and indirectly increase my VIP level for weekly and monthly profits.
After all, I gamble according to my wishes and also how much money I can use, so time will never be consistent for how long because when it time to stop then I will leave the gambling site.
Even though there is money remaining in the gambling site account balance that I have, if it should have stopped I would still leave, this is the attitude I have taken for now and has been going on for several months.

Real advantage in gambling is about the fun and entertainment that we can experience, apart from that the rest is just number of bonuses.

I had a pleasant experience, as well as a less pleasant experience playing in a physical casino. but, that was a long time ago. in the last few years, there have been two different things for me from the perspective of physical casinos and online casinos. I rarely visit physical casinos because it is prohibited in my country, but once I visit a neighboring country, occasionally I take the time to have fun playing in a physical casino. as you said, there are different facilities provided by physical casinos and online casinos. I enjoy playing time, depending on my needs and the time I have. I mean, I have scheduled the time I have, because I play and don't plan to get rich overnight. playing in a physical casino is fun, yeah, seriously it's really fun. especially for me, because I visited for entertainment purposes. which means, I can't play at a physical casino every time I visit because there is distance, money and time that I have to prepare.

Now, the era of online casinos dominates. yeah, it seems so based on my assumptions. Understandably, I don't have the data and research for this. Playing in a physical casino is more flexible, there is no need to budget large funds to start playing. just with the devices we have at home, we can play with the smallest bankroll and adjust it to the lowest bet in a game. In online casinos, the platform provides various features for its users, some of which you have mentioned in this post. nothing else, online casinos provide it to their customers while inviting new users. yeah, regardless of the promotional management they implement. So it's clear, right now, online casinos are the ones we often visit to gamble. Regarding the issue of time, it all depends on each individual or gambler. If we don't have gambling management, or gambling regulations that we implement, the impact is that someone can play excessively. ideally, many variables and discipline are needed so that it doesn't have a bad impact.

No ones cares about food or drinks nowadays,most people can go to the neighbor market buy what they like and gamble like kings in the comfort of your home.That is what I do,I buy snacks and energy drinks and enjoy my gambling session from my workstation in my studio at my home.I believe the majority to be like me and very few people to be still enticed more by offline casinos,maybe old school persons who find change difficult to embrace.I don't go to an offline casino since the distant year of 2007.

Online casino still, well its givem because right now if you have a stable job you can't have or make a time to attend to a physical casino its because instead of going to physical casino and getting tired I will prefer to be on home or anywhere I'm comfortable and do gambling, and also I started gambling using online platforms so I think I would be more on online gambling, its more convinient and more efficient for me, yes there's a risk that I will be addicted but I already pass that, meaning I already exprience being addicted and wake up from it, it doesn't matter on good you are at controlling, if you can easily access gambling then its hard to resist, but in my case I manage to set limit and boundaries so I will know when to stop, and all gamblers who does use online casino should also do that.

It depends on who we are, some people like being around others when they want to gamble but I am someone who loves the indoors more than the outdoors, this is who I am so online gambling suits me more than going to physical casinos.

There are other reasons why online casino is better.

1. You will be safer, in my country if people get closer to you as in the picture you shared you will get robbed without knowing, they can take your wallet or your phone, as a matter of fact I don't like this closeness.

2. It is not a new thing that people don't like minding their business here, once they sight you at a gambling location they will spread the news, gambling indoor is more secured and secretive than the outdoor, only you will know that you are into gambling.

3. If you win no one will follow you home, there have been cases of people losing their lives after winning some large amounts of money from gambling, and that is because they used a located casino and someone followed them home, the fact is casinos have every good and worse people you could ever think of, even killers and criminals gamble too.

I focus more on online casinos because I'm not the type of person who likes betting in a crowd of people. And access to online casinos also does not know the location let alone the regulations in the country I live in casinos are still illegal. So it's not a problem because we have an online casino that can be accessed easily anytime, anywhere. Playing alone and not many people know. In a day I only spend 2-3 hours at most, only spending a few dollars and nothing more just to look for luck. It's that simple and doesn't really make it a means of chasing defeat. After all 50% of my betting is focused on the sportsbook.

I only playing gambling in online casino and not in offline casino. If I playing gambling in offline casino, I am afraid that I can spends too much money because I will buy some food or drinks to stay me awake and focus to playing gambling.
Besides that, I can spends too much time which can makes me spends much money to playing gambling. I can lose more money if playing gambling too long and that can makes me upset if I lose much money.
I am lucky that I don't hyper-focused when playing gambling because I don't playing gambling too often so I can still manage my time in gambling. I don't spends too long in gambling and maybe less than 1 hours because I knows that the longer I playing gambling, I can lose much money so I must limits myself.

I don't think that hyper focus describes the situation well but physical casinos make you more likely to feel that you are part of a new world. There is a very nice atmosphere in casinos: Nice environment, nice girls, nice attitude toward you, nice snacks, nice drinks. They make an ideal environment for people. Sure, it depends on which particular casino you visit but this is commonly what anyone will experience.
Physical casino can offer more thinks that will hook you up compared to online casino. Like you said, physical casino can offer free drinks (booze makes you feel good), free chit-chat with beautiful girls in real life (many men significantly lack this), free food and so on. Online casinos can only offer you better promotions, bonuses and rewards, that's all. In terms of higher chance of win, I think that online casinos have an edge but in terms of experience, I would vote for physical casinos.

I have never been to physical casinos and I don't even find them useful, I personally like gambling on online casinos because they're good for someone who don't want others to know that he/she enjoys gambling.

With online casino we can enjoy sometime by placing bets and these days when we can do it from home then why we need to go somewhere else. I often place bets on sports book and that's why I'm fully into online gambling and would never ever think about offline casinos.

People are less concerned about physical casino even though those features are being offered over there at some point they could still feels like leaving the casino house to their home but with online casino you can gamble at your convenience and still enjoy the bonuses they offers. One could still go for break and have breakfast or lunch and dinner and still continue the gamble at home with their mobile device or desktop. Usually I hardly go for landbase casino and spend time of there since I don't like involving myself with a crowded place instead I love privacy to stay at home and do my gambling online.

If my country legalized physical casinos maybe there would be more gambling players there, but unfortunately since when Covid hit almost all gamblers turned to online casinos and we all know that casinos are popular when everyone is working from home because of Covid, besides that there are also the ban on physical casino gambling is illegal in my country, so almost everyone in my country focuses more on playing at online casinos including myself, perhaps because of the convenience that makes everyone comfortable in online casinos even though both have good and bad sides.

I don't want to differentiate between which is the best, but from my habits and focus, I currently prefer gambling at online casinos, but that doesn't mean that land-based casinos aren't fun, both are equally fun, I'm sure there are quite a lot of users of online casinos compared to physical casinos because of the ease of accessing gambling at Cell phones make it easier for everyone to gamble without having to leave the house to gamble at a physical casino. I think that's what makes people lazy to leave the house to gamble at a physical casino because they prefer to sit in their room or on the terrace of the house to gamble.  ;D

I am aware of the fact that clocks dont exist on the physical casinos and doors and windows are also kept minimal, but I did not come across that "hyper-focus" term, what I prefer to use is the "drunken gambler" because of so much booze and at times psycho gambler because of the effect of some drugs (invariably) and energy drinks with caffeine in them.

Indeed those increase the health hazard and your fatty liver. So better to stick to online casinos that offer more in terms of bonuses and not consumed drinks and you got your device clock to refer for the time of the day.

Online casinos it is.
I like the free money more than energy drinks and no time limit. Also, online gambling can be done at home with free water, less expensive food, and healthier if you cook it on your own.  :D

Physical casinos are an expensive habit. I've been there and I can say that anywhere you look at means "ka-ching". Yeah, you will spend money on anything they will offer you or you see.
No rakebacks too, no weekly and monthly bonuses that could give you a chance to get your money back. Although it is lonelier playing alone, I actually got used to it.

I think that the answer can have something to do with the extroversion/introversion traits of different users. While introverts may hyper focus more on their smartphones, tablets or computers, the extrovert may feel more comfortable in a more exciting environment. The first needs little stimuli to engage, while the latter much more. But without further, scientific research, it's a mere theory that intuitively makes sense.

Lol.
I read something like this on the internet some months ago.

Why do we have to blame our gambling recklessness these insignificant things rather than on our indiscipline?

How many of actually look at a wall clock in a day? These are not the things that make a person hyper focused on the gambling game. The things that makes us hyperfocus is our mindset- what we have fantasized about the game before going in to gamble, our plans - most of us gamble without any plans, no risk management plans, no budget plans etc. and others.

Let's always tell ourselves the truth. That is the first step to being free from whatever hold we think that casinos have on us.

Most people here are vote online casino no wonder because I believe some people here are related with online casino just like me hahaha like in my previous post I actually never go into offline casino like in the movie or youtube videos I just curios till now how it feels

Tho I believe some people who already been into physical casinos are like there because the snack wine or etc. Online casino maybe suitable in people like me who introvert and dont like other people around and make more focused somehow

So far, the survey from the OP shows that out of 22 players, absolutely all 100% prefer online casinos. This is not surprising to me, because with online gambling you don’t even need to leave your home. You also need to take into account that the survey takes place on the Internet, and not on the street from random passers-by, there would be more answers in favor of offline casinos, because we all live on the Internet here. I have only been to an offline casino once in my life, which was about 15 years ago, but it made a great impression on me. I had very little money and my friends and I went there because one of them wanted to bet a large sum, I don’t even know where he got it. While he went to bet it, my friend and I went to the slot machines and placed the smallest bets. At the beginning we were very lucky, but then everything was lost, classic. And if I liked all this, then I never went there again in my life because for me it’s just not convenient compared to my home.

Yes, both gambling have advantages, online, there are advantages and physical ones are no less, but each person involved in the gambling arena has their own way of getting enjoyment and focus from gambling.
Gambling in physical casinos I can say that not all places where drinks and food are free, you have to pay for what you order, at my place drinks and food are actually more expensive than those sold in physical casino houses, the price can be double.
Online gambling, all of us here know, if we want to bet, of course we are free to choose any place, the important thing is that the internet runs smoothly, regarding food and drink, of course we can buy whatever we want.

Conclusion: for me gambling does not depend on food and drink to focus and feel comfortable, gambling tastes are varied, for those who like to show off of course physical casinos are their choice, but for those who are shy and don't like to show off, online is definitely their choice, if I personally am clear on linemore focused, calm and comfortable.

In physical casinos, there are many distractions that make you can't focus into the games. Can you become really focus when you see there are hot chicks hanging around you? can you focus when there are many gamblers talk loud with each other? can you focus when someone talk to you?

In online casinos, you might get distractions like someone message or call you, but if you don't want to see it, you can just hide or block the number. Which make you have no distractions, so online casino is better in terms of focus.

If you havent been able to experience on going into those physical places then for sure you would really be that mostly be preferring into playing into online as these things would really be that too simply for you to be able to play within a snap or point of fingers on which this is really simply having that easy access. For those who had been getting used to offline casinos then they would really be definitely sticking into that.
There are ones who had been that playing on offline casinos but switch up into online just because of the easy access and availability on anytime without needing to go in physical places but since we do know that when it comes in overall experience and ambiance, then there would really be that significant difference among the two.

For me, since im not really that getting used to play on physical casinos then i do stick with online ones.I dont like for my Credit/debit cards to be used and i do much
prefer on making use my crypto coins rather than on using my bank account.

For me, playing at the casino is not just a way to have fun, it's my vacation and an opportunity to relax after a hard day's work.
Of course, many people prefer to visit physical casinos, but I prefer to play in the comfort of my home. In a physical casino, it is harder to concentrate and listen to your inner feelings because of the constant atmosphere of tension, noise and fuss. At home, I can create a comfortable environment, choose a convenient time to play and enjoy the process without unnecessary distractions.

In addition, playing at an online casino allows me to control my expenses and not waste time on the road. For me, this is the perfect way to relax and spend time usefully.

There are some societies where gambling is considered a bad thing especially living in those societies where it is almost impossible to go to a physical casino to gamble so I think online casinos are fine for those societies. In online casino you can easily gamble using your mobile or laptop and no one will know about it unless you share it with others. If privacy is concerned then I must say online casino must protect your privacy. But if your society considers gambling as a normal activity then you can go to a physical casino and gamble.

I don't play physical casinos. It is time consuming and requires a certain amount of space which is why I am not interested in wasting time using it in this digital age. I always play online gambling and my focus is always on this. Online gambling can be played hidden anytime anywhere which is very comfortable. So I think this is the best. But yes, physical casinos have a different kind of fun that online casinos don't. However, I think that online casinos are the best in many ways, so my focus is always on online gambling

 
The COVID-19 pandemic affected the social lives of many people adversely. Many people including me find it difficult to go to physical casinos because the lockdown has taught us how to stay indoors. Online gambling is now the order of the day due to its convenience and variety. But it is still difficult to forget the wonderful time spent in physical casinos. It is time-consuming but highly entertaining. It is always a time to hang out with friends and discuss mainly sports games. The physical casino has many distractions from friends and even the casino workers. There are times you will start having an emotional attachment with the female attendants and it will serve as a distractions. I focus more when I am online betting because you are in the comfort of my home or other convenient area that has fewer distractions.

In online casinos you can turn your place into a perfect environment without any interference and you can gamble safely. Besides online gambling has a lot to enjoy as you can hide your identity and play gambling. Because in many countries it will not serve you directly as there may be severe legal penalties. Moreover gambling requires a deep attitude so losing may not be normal among other people. After you lose the character will not be normal so it is important to be alone.

All these perks both in physical and online casinos are only for VIP customers and not every gambler, as far as I know, because if they start giving out free drinks and food to every gambler on the floor, the casino will have to spend all their revenue on these things or at least a good chunk of it, and I don't think they would want to do that. They only serve VIP customers at VIP tables and all others have to order food and drinks or go and buy them themselves.

The same goes for online casinos, cashback, free spins, and all other perks and benefits are only for those who reach VIP status and not for any regular gambler. So, being a regular gambler, none of these things make me focus on my gambling, and I only spent a small amount of my time in a casino whenever I feel like gambling a little bit.

Because my country prohibits gambling business places so I will answer as is, I have never even felt what it's like to be in a physical casino. Some people say that physical casinos are more interesting because there are many people who participate in them and many people interact and have friends there so can create comfort, to be honest, if in my country there is a possibility that I will occasionally visit and see the difference between online casinos and physical casinos, it seems that both have different attractions, but if we talk about focus like online casinos we can focus more if we play it at home and not chat with anyone because it focuses on online gambling.

Regarding how many hours I spend on gambling, I don't know for sure, it's definitely less than 1 hour because I have another job and don't just focus on gambling. Moreover, getting too carried away with gambling will make us lose control, so I don't stay long when gambling, not because I'm bored, but because I limit my expenses, if the money I have prepared runs out, I will immediately stop and not continue.

You nailed it, sometimes visiting physical casinos and seeing people going out to buy food and ordering what to eat keeps me dumbfounded and think that they do so to feel comfortable gambling or placing bets but it's otherwise an irresponsible habits and I can't spend up to an hour gambling I just do what I have to and leave provided I know what I'm in for.
It's also applicable to online casinos I don't spend more time betting I just stay focus on my game sometimes.

Before, when I was still young, I don't know that online gambling existed but I'm already involved in different types of gambling in the real world. The experience was fun and exciting, and sometimes profitable. Couple of years has passed and I finally discovered crypto and a couple months after, I found out crypto gambling.

It started with dice and the crypto casinos eventually add more games on their platform. Later on, non-crypto gambling sites are also starting to make name and I moved to them. I stick on them up to this point. Even if there are clocks on the casinos that we are playing or no freebies, the experience on the games alone will still be enough for us to keep on coming back at them.

This time around, I occasionally gamble even on the online casinos and physical casino but most of the time in this period, I am always gambling online because of lack of free time to go out to physical casino shops. What makes me go out to physical casino is my friends because if we are out, we usually have fun, drink and chitchat and it is usually a happy moment which doesn't get us addicted to gambling and doesn't also affect us even when we are losing.

And also going into these places are something that is really that off to me. Why? im just a small time gambler and going into these places in together with those whale or rich people will really be giving out that kind of uneasiness on which i do decide to play into gambling online platform but actually it would really be just that depending into someones preference because not all would really be sharing up on the same selection on which of course it would really be that there would be people who could easily switch up on between. It will really be just that depending on the availability or would really be just that depending
on the money that you do have because not all does have the money in going into those physical casinos or having that no availability. There would really be several reasons with those things.

Every gambler has his style and preference when it comes to Gambling activities. For gamblers that gamble on more of a solo basis, they usually do it online since it is still very possible to have fun online with having physical company. Online gambling has one of the biggest advantage of flexibility both in terms of the amount of free time the gambler can allocate and also based on the number of countries or regions from which the gambler can gamble and place bets at ease.
However so other gamblers focus better during offline gambling activities where they can easily go to a regular casino and probably place bets while chilling out with friends. It's very important to be focused and in a proper mental state before carrying out gambling activities.

They like to keep the drinks coming so that you make rash decision, place higher bets and then ultimately take all of your money. In some of these places if you're a member there are some serious incentives and amenities to enjoy! For me I would definitely say that I prefer going to the actual casino, I think the experience is so much better & its something that you can plan to go with a group of friends and have a really fun night.

I have to admit that the atmosphere and accompanying amenities in traditional casinos including beer, alcohol, strong music and girls can make us forget time and may not remember anything about winning or losing. Online casinos can make us more focused because most of us will play in places that are quiet and familiar to us, not affected by too many things.

However, there are also people who have more unusual habits than the majority. I have a few friends who feel more focused in environments that give them stimulation, such as cafes with music playing or casinos with loud music playing. One factor we need to consider is that online gambling may depend on connection and internet speed as well as the device to gamble. If one of those factors is slow or the connection is lost, it can cause our gambling to be interrupted, thereby leading to more distraction.

Then maybe if you know that  this is happening then better not to accept any offerings coming from them since you already know what will happen if you get drunk while you are in their place. We just need to control ourselves so that we can decide so well on each time we place our bet and no can can take advantage on the situation since sometimes there are some pressuring factors that you need to show up since there are so many people watching and you need to get or ignore their intimidation attempt so that we could not lose a lot from those physical casinos. That's why sometimes I prefer to gamble on online casino since its giving us less pressure since there's no other people watching us.

This is called spamming. I checked and you are a newbie and It is obvious that you do not read rules before making posts here. By the way what you have done is advertising and you should have created a new thread for this post of yours on service board so that members could see it for themselves and approach you if your service is needed. Doing it here is very wrong and as a matter of fact you might likely be tagged if reported.

If you are a representative of the organisation that you are promoting here it would be better you do as I say before it is too late and moreover, this advert of yours is too real to believe as I find it fishy. Do well to follow instructions before posting next time.

Probably for this reason, visiting a physical casino is often more of a reason to have fun with your company. The goal will be to spend time with drinks and fun on days when money is simply wasted. But there are also reasons why people will prefer online casinos. This is because, in some countries, casinos are simply prohibited. But for avid players, there are always online casinos to the rescue, although these may also be blocked by some countries. Honestly, after reading a lot of fascinating stories about online casinos, you involuntarily begin to take a closer look and try one online casino, then another. Fortunately, the choice is now huge, no matter how many governments want to ban some.

It's not a question of focus, I haven't been to a land-based casino for years, so I only play online. Focusing on the framework you want to establish, my 'focus' would be online, so to speak.

Physical casinos have certain components that can make them attractive for certain situations as the OP said, but for me the main thing is a game with friends. I wouldn't go alone, to go alone I stay at home and play online.

I see it winning by an overwhelming majority online, as befits these times.

You have said it all already; it depends on gamblers preferences. There are some people who prefer to play at a physical casino, but due to too many activities, they don't have a lot of time to go out to gambling, so they make online casinos their next second choice. Despite that, there are still many people who are good at going to the physical casino to gamble. I once said that there is no time you will visit the casino in my place that you will see it empty; it is usually filled with people. 

Just as the trend of development proceeds also is how we move together with every form of technological development happening in the society, people no longer go for physical casinos as before because they can easily gamble with the comfort of their mobile device without having to worry on anything, it helps have privacy in gambling, it also make every gambler afford to gamble without having any form of barrier no matter what as long as they can have access to their mobile device and get connected to the internet, gambling is made easy for everyone everywhere.

In my case it has to be physical casinos, but not for the reasons you may think, after all when I gamble online I have the freedom to decide how much time I want to spend gambling, and in the case of a sport bet this can be as short as a few seconds, and I can just do whatever else I want with my time, however attending a physical casino has a series of opportunity costs, like the time spent on the road, which makes it unlikely you will just spend a few minutes there as you want to make your visit count, then it is way more likely you will spend hours there and you may make use of those perks offered by casinos.

Since I never had a chance to gamble in physical casinos, I don’t have any experience to compare between online casinos, however, when we think logically about which one of them gives us more hyper focus to keep gambling, I choose the physical one, I guess dealing with real machines and being in front of dealers will give you more energy and entertainment.
for instance, online casinos can be played anywhere as long as you take your device with, so you really feel comfortable and without the need to interact with the dealers or being called which i believe can be a reason for you to lose focus.

You're right, both physical and online casinos use strategies to keep you playing longer - it's all about trying to make you lose track of time, and money.  Online casinos can be worse cuz they're faster paced and so easy to access.  Just a tap on your phone or click on the computer and you're in, so you dont got that physical barrier to maybe make you stop like at a real casino.

I feel like with online ones, since getting money out or putting it in is pretty simple, it's a lot easier to keep playing without thinking.  And those sites load so quick and games go so fast next thing you know hours passed.  At least with real casinos you gotta move around and see real people occasionally instead of just staring at a screen losing track of everything else.

Because I am someone who doesn't like crowds, I prefer and focus on using online casinos, because online casinos can give me comfort and freedom. And besides that, I can also play in a quiet and quiet place like my room, so I can play with focus and play with full awareness, so I don't play too much.
For offline casinos, I don't really care and what is certain is that it is very busy there, smells of cigarette smoke and is also noisy which has the potential to make me unable to focus on playing.
Even though for some friends or other people it is more fun to play offline casinos, it will make most people lose consciousness which results in spending more money apart from betting, they also spend money on other things including the costs of getting there. And these costs can actually be enough capital to play online casino.

Keeping Gambler's active and energized via their supplement treatment is part of the business mechanism of casinos most especially the physical casinos sometimes this treatment may become a way of attracting customers to the casinos, and also making them comfortable enough to waste hour's of the days in the casino without feeling exusted.
Although this may not work for every casinos since local regulations may limits some of the things the casinos can offer to the customers while in the casinos be it in form of food or drinks, sometimes even free women too.

I'm a lazy gambler so I prefer to do it in the comforts of my home and spend as little time on it as possible. There fore I don't go to physical casinos at all, so the answer to whether I'm hyper focused there is pretty simple - I'm not because I don't go there. I don't live in the city center, so If I were to drive there and go to a casino, it would take at least 30 minutes + parking fees and all that. I'd rather use my computer. Also, I don't like noisy places so I'm more focused when I'm alone, or with one or two close friends.

I hate moving from one place to another place.  I also not too fond of loud noises and crowded places.  I love to enjoy the silence of my room so I am more interested in playing online casinos.  Besides, playing at home made me avoid traffic jam that consumes a lot of time which eats my fun time not saying the frustration when caught in traffic that almost doesn't move.

Aside from that, I also am not fond of free drinks and snacks since I don't really like the tastes of liquor.  I would rather have perks from online casinos like free spins, bonus deposits, rakeback, and cash back than those freebies offered in the physical casinos.  Since the bonuses given by online casino can lengthen my gameplay and might possibly extend my fund to hit a huge multiplier.

I learned how to gamble from a physical gambling hall, but along the line I find my self betting on an online casino more than the physical gambling hall I started from. However gambling online gives you the privilege of gambling at your own comfort because no matter the kind of environment you find yourself, as long as there is an internal access there you can gamble.

I believe that each of them has its advantages and disadvantages, and the evaluation will differ according to the circumstances and aspirations of each user:

Physical casinos: For those who want to maintain the greatest amount of privacy and enjoy a nice time while gambling, these casinos will be their best choice, but they must take into account that the temptations provided by these facilities can easily lead to involvement in addiction. Also, the problem with physical casinos is that none of them support cryptocurrencies, apart from the fact that they are not available to everyone.

Online casinos: They are the option available to almost everyone and they support cryptocurrencies, meaning that any user from anywhere in the world can enjoy gambling services, regardless of his circumstances or the type of currencies he has. However, one must always take into consideration the aspect of privacy that these casinos do not support, and caution is always necessary due to frequent cases of frauds.

When talking about physical casinos and online casinos the difference is big, you yourself have already talked about the points that differ between these two casinos, but we have to take into account that it is unlikely that the majority of people who go to physical casinos are lucky enough to live close to the physical casino, so we have a scenario in which the majority of people who frequent physical casinos are going for tourism, they go with friends for a walk just like they do when they go to a beach or a trip somewhere, they know that they don't go to the physical casino every days because it's far away and you have a job, so every day you have to go to work and work, but when you have a day off or on vacation, you take the opportunity to go and play at a physical casino.

This is the casino Casino di Campione, Italy:

source: https://www.juancarlosgongora.com/the-10-biggest-casinos-in-the-world-in-2023

when people see this photo and read the article, people become interested in visiting the casino on the day they travel to Italy, the rich who like to visit the best places in the world, when they see this photo and this article they soon travel to Italy to go see this casino and play in it, people from Italy who are in other cities will also travel to see and play in this casino, nowadays physical casinos have become tourist spots where people go to visit and take the opportunity to go for a walk, have fun and play a lot and then the same people will go to other places to visit other casinos.

whereas in the case of online casinos it is the same people who are playing there every day. This is because in the case of online casinos, players are playing with clear objectives of making money, they are thinking about profit and nothing else.

A lot of us too once started with physical gambling but right now, we barely visit the physical casino because of the convenience we enjoy since we got to know about the online gambling platforms. I am also a very lazy gambler who rarely goes out, except for few days I go out with friends to nearby casinos. Online casinos which are readily available as long as I have my devices with me, has made me enjoy gambling better. Anyone who enjoys gambling with online casinos have to be extra careful because online casinos can be very addictive with lots of regrets accompanying it.

Personally I choose and direct all of my focus to the online casino a s this is because of the privacy I tend to get from the online casino and the ability to maintain a healthy gambling habit around the online casino although for others it may be totally different but I know for sure that for people whose environment has some personalities amongst which they wouldn't want to be aware of their gambling habits, they may most likely result to the online casinos.

The benefits both online and offline give sometimes when placed side by sides you get to find out that somehow at some point that cancel out because since the online casinos cannot get to give you drinks a d food just like some of the offline casinos does they substitute it for the bonus and the free spins to attract and kept you in their casinos long enough trying to be able to see how much you can make off those bonuses which in some cases you eventually end up going to loose to the casino again or if you eventually win you can be able to afford the food they would have given you if it were to be a physical casino.

Summarily both casinos have got their peculiarities of which if they appeal to your personality you can go ahead to choose from which you are going to definitely work with, if you are such a person that can deal with not really having to care people's opinions when they find you in a physical casino then you can get to work with them to have your kind of fun but then if you care much about it then the online casinos is there for you to still maintain your cool while having your fun still.

I am having a hard time defining the term hyper focus, is it spending more time without realizing how much time you have been doing it?

Everybody have their mobile 24/7 do irrespective whether there is no clock or window it doesn't stop you from seeing what's the time so its the choice we took when we decided to gamble and there maybe some saying that the casinos don't have clock so people forgot how long they have been playing.

Online casinos are equally engaging in other forms since it does operate 24/7 at the palm of your hands.

just like you, i also prefer to play online because it is much more efficient and easier. we don't need to be tired of going to the casino just to gamble, because just open our smartphone and we can play as many games as we want directly from our smartphone, it's not complicated and much easier. especially for people who don't really like noise, playing online is much easier and more fun, because i can play from my room or living room while listening to music or watching tv.

I think it also depends on the individual but I will discuss on how each platform can have their respective focuses:

ON PHYISCAL CASINOS:
Like what you said OP, physical casinos give lots of complimentaries in order to compel the individual to stay for as long as they can on the gambling establishment. This includes drinks, free staying on the hotel, free food, etc. and any kind of amenity in order to really capture the person on staying on the establishment.

ON ONLINE CASINOS:
While there may be no free amenities being offered or complimentaries, online casinos have bonuses and rewards (e.g. free spins,etc.) in order to entice the gambler on the online casino. In addition, these online casinos offer the best convenience- which is to gamble at your own home or place, etc. Also, the convenience of paying through online MOPs are efficient.

First, I do not have a choice but to focus on online gambling but if I have the chance patronise the physical casinos because I am a busy person and the proximity of the standard physical casino to my house is like a journey. So this is always discouraging and since there are standard restaurants and bars around me, there is no urge to go for the standard physical casino because those are the extra I target going there, not the gambling per se.

However, it surprised me with the free food and drink remarks you attributed to physical casinos, personally, I've not witnessed such before. Good, those extras are there but for a certain access fee, so you do not get that without the payment. It could have been another VIP package as well. I'm not saying in particular that this is not true but saying that it is not so in most cases. And the casino must be so big for such to be happening even as the company must have indirectly charged for the food and drinks elsewhere.

Before I voted, I thought that many more votes would go to "online gambling" and that probably many people who started to gamble online don't even think about returning to physical casinos. I'm one of those people who won't go back to physical casinos. And the score is 32 to 1 for online gambling... I don't count how much time I gamble, I do it when I can, probably shorter than some and longer than others.. one of the beauties of online gambling is that I can do it whenever I can without a big hassle.

But does the rest of the world think about online vs physical casinos? The numbers are only growing and the gambling market is expanding in all directions. If we can believe the statistics, online gambling is constantly growing:

Source:https://playtoday.co/blog/stats/online-gambling-stats/ (https://playtoday.co/blog/stats/online-gambling-stats/) Interesting reading...

An interesting question would be whether online casinos will generate more money than physical ones one day. And if it is possible when it could happen.

You are right for people who don't want to be tired and don't want the hassle and prefer to play online gambling at home because apart from not being noisy we can focus more on gambling. I also prefer gambling online compared to going to an offline casino because I am also very lazy to travel. while we can enjoy it at home without having to go far, and for people who are tired from working all day, they definitely prefer to do it at home rather than having to travel further which will waste their energy while at home they only have to sit holding a smartphone or While lying down we can do whatever we want.

Whereas in a physical casino we can't lie down or do as we please and if we need food and drink we also need to spend more money so for me instead of spending more money on petrol for a long trip or buying food it's better to gamble at home. we can eat and drink for free while enjoying the gambling we play, even while listening to music, as you said.

Hyper-focus, man! It exists and casinos are proficient at using it as a weapon. Nothing except this endless space where you lose track of everything but the game: no clocks, no windows. They keep you in the zone and you wager well over your budget by feeding you alcohol and stimulants. It is a well planned attack on your senses intended to increase your spending. Internet casinos? Goal same, strategies different. By offering free spins and cashback, they try to get you to play "just one more round."

Me? I can focus anywhere, anytime. Emotions can, nevertheless, play a part. The way you react to those triggers will determine how much of an impact the surroundings have on your mental health. It's about your own plans and your own resolve

I also prefer to gamble in online casinos. I don't want to go out and get into the hassle of the traffic and commute. Here in our country, traffic is crazy and when I say crazy, you might be surprised. Those that are living in a country that has a good transportation and don't have much volume of cars. I'll tell you how crazy it is to commute here, I live in the city and 20 kilometers of travel will cost you 1 hour, rush hour or not. And can you imagine that? While the physical casino is within the city and you'd get stuck in the middle of the traffic and before arriving to the casino, you're already haggard and exhausted.

Gambling is an interesting activity and I have gambled on both online and offline gambling platforms before, but I prefer to gamble online. Whenever I visit any casino house and I decided to gamble, I easily get distracted whenever I see people around me. I prefer to be in my room and gamble with my mobile phone, I do offer myself snacks and drinks just to make myself feel relaxed, and not to make me get tired of gambling. I know we all have our preference, but I prefer to gamble online rather than visiting physical casino to gamble.

from this we can know that why the casino in your city is in the middle of the city, it's because they want their casino to be more accessible and at the same time it makes people who want to get there stuck in traffic jams and that makes people more tired, so it will reduce concentration them and make these gamblers only think about coming to the casino and spending their time there. it's really very ineffective and inefficient playing at a physical casino and i don't know why so many people are willing to spend hours stuck in traffic just to play there.

Having never been to a physical casino so I don't know how it feels to play there and only play at online casinos then online casinos are my only choice, and also which one will be the choice for gamblers is how they want to get a better feeling, physical casinos will be allows gamblers to interact with other players, while online gambling will provide more comfort because you can play anywhere and anytime, as long as you have money and time you can play straight away, also changes in lifestyle will make players prefer online casinos, especially since you don't need spent time to go to a physical casino, but for those who like traditional things physical casinos will be an option.

I think this is the usual reason why many gamblers switched to online gambling. Ease of access, cheaper drinks and foods by buying at the store and consuming at home, and they are not used to many people in one room or one place anymore which happened after the pandemic lockdown. No one is to be blamed for that and I think it's better that way, no disrespect to physical casinos. The environment is really different because it's more fun in physical casinos but still, people do change and if they find it way better to just gamble in online casinos then so be it.
There are still gamblers who would prefer the traditional way but sometimes when it's too far then one would pick the easier path by just opening his smartphone or computer and gamble that way.

You have your answer mate and that is given and that is Online casino because the vote
stands 35-1 and that means there is only one from here that hyper focus in physical casino lol.

but comparing the hours given when in each casino? of course I spend  more in physical casino
you know why? because of free drinks that we shared by friends while losing our money haha.

Lol those compliments from the physical casino indeed seem to be an interesting reason why some gamblers spend time in the casino. Consuming those drinks a lot can get the player drunk and cause him more losses. However, it's just a good thing to go along with friends to the physical casino. It's all fun, but not surprised to see that lots of people chos the online casino over physical ones.

They are multiple reasons to it, one being that this is not the right place to make such comparison. A lot of online casinos exist online and everyone here prefer doing things online. Assuming in a place, where it is made available, a good number of offline gamblers you'd notice a difference in the results. Online casinos also provides easy access to the casino and doesn't require much effort to begin. I mean nobody teaches a new gambler how to wager his money online. It's all simple and the process isn't ambiguous.

Actually there are plenty of topics discussing our preference between land based and online gambling platforms. Majority of the people in this forum would most likely prefer online gambling sites simply because of the involvement of cryptocurrency as the mode of payment on web 3 casinos. Also, the convenience it gives is priceless than to go to personally to the casino. Has something to do as well with where would a player be comfortable to gamble and in my end, I definitely have this with online gambling sites because of lack of distractions which allows me to have better decision making as I place my bets.Absolutely. In most instances those who prefers gambling personally on casinos are those which are seeking "true gambling experience" but I guess that's subjective. In both online and landbased casinos, risk is present and that's enough to give you that experience except the actual interaction with other players.

Don't rely too much with the poll because there are other gamblers that are focused with physical casinos but don't vote in the poll.
Many of us are both gambling physically and in online and we preferred both of it based on the experience that we have.

Those complimentary drinks. They are also a good incentive if you're going to visit the physical casinos than of the online. But in online, they also have a complimentary but not a drink but bonuses and promos depending on which level your account is or how much you have wagered already on them. There's always the thought that when we gambler whether online or physical, there's the big tendenct that we'd lose money and that's not new to most of us.

Yes, they want to do it on a business district where it's in the middle of the cities because it is accessible. But you know how terrible the traffic in our capital and that's why I don't want to get stuck in the traffic for hours sitting driving in the midst of it. It's too exhausting and I have been there and done that and that's why I know how to avoid them. But this time, it just became worst because there's almost no time that this traffic congestion's existence. It's like everywhere I go in the capital region of our country and even if the physical casinos are accessible, you'd feel the rush in the traffic and commute and you'll regret why you go there.  ;D

A true gambling experience, sounds ambitious enough to experience what it's like to do gambling in a private casino compared to an Online casino.
Going head-to-head with other gamblers gives quite a different adrenaline rush and that in my opinion is also more challenging.

But I have never gambled in private casinos because such places are prohibited in my country,
only do gambling at Online casino tables and yes, maybe you already know how the difference is.

I'm not surprised that, in voting, we see more votes for online casinos than for physical casinos. When playing in an online casino, we are own masters; we decide what and how we should do, play, or give time for a break, unlike in a regular casino, where the staff requires constant play if you are on the territory of the casino. But the biggest thing in my opinion about the preference for playing in online casinos is that we cannot disclose our affection for visiting some casinos to the public since we cannot always correctly explain to people why it is sometimes necessary to receive a certain dose of adrenaline by participating in games.

In my opinion, that is where the advantage of online gambling is, we can easily access it just by using a cell phone, and we can do it wherever we want. I myself also prefer online casino gambling because it is easy to access and I can do it anywhere. whatever I want. for those of you who like to do it in your room and accompanied by snacks and drinks, of course it is very comfortable, because basically, in my personal opinion, when we gamble we should be able to enjoy it, I also do it as you said accompanied by drinks or coffee and also with snacks but I do it outside on the balcony of my house while enjoying the evening or afternoon breeze.

For physical casinos, of course we have to step in first to be able to do it, but there are many purposes besides gambling, of course we can communicate with each other, between ourselves and other gamblers who have their own attitudes, we can also see other people gambling with those who win. or lose, but maybe physical casinos are suitable for those who want to experience the thrill of gambling but don't have enough money to bet, they can go to physical casinos to see people gambling and get winnings, and with online casinos I think this is suitable for those who reluctant to travel far and comfortable with solitude, like myself.

 Most individuals currently would prefer the online casino, thanks to the Internet and technology that's made it possible for people to gamble at their comfort anywhere with their devices, someone who's at the office could just log into their online gambling account and place their bet, without leaving the office to go bet in a physical casino, it's saved cost of transportation amongst others.

 As for me I think I prefer the online casino, it's not about the free wines or food items to attract customers, i can't afford wines and order foods or cook at home, sit comfortably in my house and gamble with my laptop, I'm a kind of individual that doesn't like crowed place therefore I see that as a distraction moreover why would I go there when I could create an account with any good online casino, fund it and gamble with it.

That's because many of us more familiar playing gambling on online casino than offline casino. We found a comfortable place to playing gambling and don't wants to meet other people or playing together with other people. We can search for the online casino that we wants and no one can asks us to go to the casino because we search for the comfortable casino that can satisfy us in playing gambling. Yes, we are the masters so we decides where we wants to playing gambling and we know how to select the right casino for us. Visiting some offline casino can makes us feels strange, especially if we are not familiar with the casino and we can't gets comfortable by playing on offline casino. Besides that, when we playing gambling on online casino, we can playing gambling from anywhere and use many devices so that helps us to enjoy our time when we are at home.

It is true that comparing the two online casinos is definitely easier physical casinos require a person to be physically present. There is no such problem with online casinos a person can bet from wherever he likes and no one will easily get any information about it. Online casinos are gaining more popularity with the advancement of technology. Researching different online sites makes it easier for new gamblers to know the rules of gambling easily.

We are seeing this happening on many other industries as well and not only on the gambling industry, it was not long ago in which people still did most of their purchases by going to many different stores and buy what they needed, but now most of our purchases are done online, and if anything this tendency will do nothing else but get stronger, since it is by far the most practical option and you can find exactly what you want this way.
