Online Gambling Versus Traditional Gambling

[yanlap]

For regular gamblers though the online casino is always the feasible option.

I agree with this, those who still visit offline casinos are doing it for just some mood change or as a status symbol.

For people who see it as an opportunity to make money, they will compare both options. With more and more online websites entering this field, the competition among online casino is also increasing. Thus, they give these tempting offers from time to time to attract more players.

I think they are not visiting these traditional casinos due to their status instead of that they are visiting these casinos just to continue with their addiction. The addiction of making more money takes them to these casinos where they gamble most of the time and lose money more than they win. Yeah! Due to this competition, believing any of the online casino is very much difficult.

What are the differences between online and traditional gambling ? Which you like the most and why ? In my opinion both the types of gambling have got their own advantages and disadvantages. You can try both for some time and then choose one based on your convenience.

If you don't want to be known then online gambling would be preferable because no one can see you doing it especially during the times when your family members or relatives are against it. There is a disadvantage in this setting though because you can just easily access your online account and then transfer some funds in case you are out of funds for gambling and you can be prone to being addicted if no one knows that you are gambling so you have to face the battle yourself.

As for traditional gambling, some people go there because they just want the kind of ambiance they feel when they are in a casino and they can enjoy for themselves. There are also times that the people they wanted to meet are there that's why they are in a casino. If you gamble physically, you can enjoy it more if you are just there to release your stress and forget your problems for some time compared to online gambling but when it comes to anonymity, there would be a possibility that someone would recognize you especially if you have an important position in the society.

Maybe the difference about this two is the accessibility because online gambling can be done anywhere as long as you have internet ,gadget and funds then you can instantly plays.
While in traditional gambling you will be needing transportation,money and much time and ofcourse physically fit to play in this.

I love online casino ,because what i am earning in my campaign goes to betting and playing to unwind from the weeks of stressful job.

[Shinpako09]

I like the online gambling more as I can play with any amount, I can play anytime I want, I can play no matter what I'm wearing and no one will get to know if I lose or win a large amount of money. It is more comfortable to play as well if there's no other people with you.

[futile-resistance]

Ofcourse the accessibility,online gambling only requires internet and budget,then you can start playing,while traditional casino requires transportation,money and physical presence that needs more efforts.

I prefer online casino because im a busy person,every single minute for me is important so if playing gamble makes me happy i will giveit small amount of time to unwind thats why playing in my laptop is I preferred most

This is really depend on how you see things, some people don't want to play online since it is more risky to do so as technology controls the game. There is pros and cons of online gambling as well as the traditional way of gambling. Well If I have to choose, I will go for traditional gambling which you can really feel the excitement of making profit and feel it literally.

In gambling only very few people can win it applies to both traditional and online casinos so by doing traditional gambling you can't increase your winning percentage.so it all depends on the user preference and confortness but online casino is good for the people who are very busy so they can spend little time at the hand to play online.

I think this is just a useless discussion. If you want to compare these two sort of gambling, it is just resembles with the comparison between which killing is better, suicide or direct shooting from someone. Brothers we have to understand that this gambling is just a negative aspect that seems to become source of income for some stupid people. They are continuously losing their money but they don’t want to quit this.

Online gambling is much better because you literally can do it at any time, even while sitting on the toilet. You don't have to leave home, care for your outfit or looks. You can do it in pyjamas while eating popcorn and the result will be the same as in a real casino.

with the increasing popularity of online gambling and those of us who need something more practical, it is obvious that more online gambling is in the market. and the internet becomes the biggest factor where we consume it all the time. it's also what makes more online gambling in the favor. although sometimes we have some concerns with some of the worries that our money will vanish with the deceit we may encounter

I know due to easy access to gambling, people like to gamble online because they can easily make bets while sitting in home and don’t have to go to casinos so that they can play gambling and if were spotted there by someone who is relative to that person, he would have to face embarrassment at that time. But I think there are still some people who love traditional gambling more than online gambling.

You are right that online gambling is better than traditional gambling and the reason is that online gambling provide you lot of choices for gambling while traditional casinos have just a few things and most people gamble with cards on a table which is most old fashion gambling. Now there are many sources of gambling which you can find in online and not in off line casinos.

It has not been so long to see the online casinos and that most of the gamblers are only aware of the casinos and the traditional gambling. There are not even aware of this thing that any such thing even exists and that it will take time for things to change. Online casinos are good and that they will surely take lead over the traditional casinos but this will take lot of time and efforts.

I do not really like going outdoors and in order to fulfill my love for gambling, I gamble online. But my gamble is mostly on football matches because I have been watching them religiously for almost a decade now and can make an educated guess about the matches. I was able to successful predict the result of quarter finals and semi finals of Champions league and hence was able to make some amount of money. So I prefer online gambling more.

[Johnzky]

I like online gambling for sure. It's convenient compared to casinos where you have to suffer traffic and the danger of getting robbed if a syndicate just waiting for a jackpot winner to leave the place.

Rightly said. In case of traditional gambling, you will always be worried about your money being stolen. There is no such issue with online gambling provided you have used strong passwords and have installed good anti-virus on your computer. Most of the online casinos have advanced protection against hackers and thus your information is also private and confidential there.

I beg to differ. There is still the possibility for you to lose your earnings in online gambling. It’s possible to have scams or phishing schemes in the form of these online gambling sites, so it’s not yet 100% safe and secure as compared to traditional gambling. It may still be susceptible to hackers even with the presence of strong security and protection. Needless to say, nothing is 100% safe and there’s the possibility of losing your money anywhere.

Yeah right,so it means both have same risk on losing your money so the thing is how you keep secure the funds,and talking about gambling theres no such thing as 100% but losing because in gambling theres only 70/30 lose/win.

Thats why if you dont wanna lose anything from your pocket,then stop playing gambling so preventing losses is indeed

I live in a place where it will take me 2 hours driving to reach the nearest casino (traditional brick and mortar) and before I even enter the place I would need to go through a lot security checks and I have to show them that I have enough money to spend before I can come in. This is one of the reason why I would rather play online than in real casino. I don't need to dress up and no one knows that I gamble since I do it inside my man cave. 

[kateryana81]

We all enjoy gambling but we have different opinions based on our own experienced. For me, I much prefer traditional gambling. Why ? The thrill is different when I am or I can attach with it personally. More thrill more fun. Aside from that I feel more the game so different happiness is brought if I win the game, and I think I can really control the situation.

The experience of the traditional casinos is different from the online casinos. At one time visiting the physical casino was something of a status symbol. Though it gradually became a derogatory objectification later on once people understood the evil within gambling addiction. Those who realize that early the better.

Still if you ever visit some place like Las Vegas, you will be visiting the casinos there as a part of the tour schedule. That in my opinion is a different experience and as long as you dont waste money in gambling there - you should be fine.

I did not know that gambling has remained as a status symbol for people. How anyone could be judged on this ridiculous game. It is so insane and lame. No matter how rich a person is, he will never be respected due to habit of gambling. As far as the difference between both traditional and online casino goes, it is just the environment. Moreover, it also depends on individual which one suits him.

If you wanna compare then online gambling is better in all aspects
1. With online gambling you get the most important things which traditional gambling never had , a fair mark which ensures that your result wasn't pre determined
2. You don't have a huge house edge , casinos do have big house edge but in dice maximum a site should ask is 1% which is the industry standard
3. You can gamble anonymously in online gambling
4. You also have no tax policy in online gambling

But traditional gambling still has one advantage

If the casino refuses to pay your profit if you are in USA you can sue the casino and even ask for compensation

Yes, as I can understand, the number of advantages that we can get from online casinos is much greater than the traditional one. And the most important thing for me is due to the anonymity we can get although not 100%.

It is not about scam or phishing techniques. Impersonating oneself to be someone else is not required to take away money from gamblers as this game itself is a big scam. It gives hopes to player that he can win big amounts but then what happens. A gambling player tends to lose more than win, whether he is a part of online gambling site or visits some land based casinos. His money is not safe here.

[Pan Troglodytes]

Oh definitely I am into regular gambling - there is nothing like a game with a group of good friends. The money is not really important in that case. Gambling with machines (and online gambling in particular) has a completely different flavour to me, it is not my thing, really.

Yeah traditional gambling is more fun when you play with your friends because earning profit is less more important. It can also be played with your family which can become a family bonding but of course there are people who thinks badly about gambling. It maybe because of norms/religion/personal beliefs/knowing the negative effects of gambling which in result make gamblers become sinners to the eyes of other people. These people who wouldn't want to let others know that they are gambling especially to their family would prefer online gambling than the traditional. Others who do gambling online, maybe don't have the time to perform it traditionally. Besides, online gambling can be quite attractive now because of the bonuses and the environment of the gambling site which can make you feel like you are in a casino too.

[anntlevel]

Another benefit of online gambling is that you need not tip any employees. In case of traditional gambling, you will have to tip waiters and dealers for the service.

This all could add up to big amount if you gamble frequently. I am surprised no one else mentioned it before here.

First of all, it is not compulsory to tip the waiter or other staff that provide pleasing services to customers. It is all up to individual whether he feels like tipping anyone or not. The concept of rewarding someone this way is showing one’s satisfaction. No one will punish him for not doing so. Secondly, losing money in useless bets is more dangerous than the mentioned point and only this matters really.

[Betwrong]

At first glance online gambling looks more dangerous because practically everyone, regardless of their financial situation, can be engaged in it. I'm sure most online gamblers wouldn't be allowed to even enter a land based casino considering how they dressed and what amount of money they have with them. But with online gambling someone, being poor, can blow their last twenty bucks in seconds and then borrow another $20 and blow them too. Such things would unlikely happen in a land based casino.

But on the other hand, there are types of people who are attracted to exactly what a land based casino is giving them: luxury appearance, nice girls serving free drinks etc. For those types online casinos lack what they love the most and they normally are reluctant to use them, while they can borrow big sums of money to be able to play in a land based casino, and this is even more dangerous because it won't be just twenty bucks.

Any casino, either online or offline one, can be dangerous to enter for unprepared people. But if you are prepared and you know the first rule of gambling which is "You should not gamble with money that you cannot afford to lose", then you can be okay with both.

If we talk about which one is better, then if think it will vary from individual to individual. All of us have our own taste, likings and dis-likings, so what I like might not interest you even a bit. All we can do is give the basic difference like traditional casinos are crowd and a person has to go there while online casinos provide remote access to all games so a gambler can gamble from anywhere. Ultimately, both are ridiculous.

You are right my friend, it depends from individual taste, some people like one way, other like other way, and there is no way for anyone to say what is better, everything has its pros and cons! What I like about traditional casinos is the feeling when you go there, you can`t go in pijamas, you are well served, when its about poker you see other people, and its totally different game play. What is good about online casinos is that you sit at home alone and you can do what ever you wish beside gambling, different feeling from going to casino.
I like both ways, both are good. I think its easier to gamble online with any amount, going to traditional casino require a little bigger bankroll, its like that in my case, online I gamble for cents sometimes, but in traditional casino I go with full as possible wallet.
