Las Vegas Casino lose profits on rise of online casinos

Thursday, May 20th, 2010

Las Vegas Casinos have seen a reduction in their profits over the last decade with the increase in popularity of online casinos. It is to be expected that as the technology advanced in online gambling fairness, financial security and breakthroughs in game development that land-based casinos would remain outside the loop. While driving all the way to Las Vegas may be exciting, seeing the city in the middle of desert full of light and noise, it is not something you can do every month, much less every week. There are gas and hotel costs, food expenses, the inevitable shopping spree that one is tempted to do on holidays plus the actual wagers at the casino. So, a Las Vegas trips has it’s good and bad side while online casinos just offer their services to anyone interested, from the comfort of anybody’s home. There are no expenses for playing online, except what you intend to risk on the tables and the cost of your internet and computer. But if you already have the latter and are just looking for leftover cash to risk at the online casinos.

There are other obvious advantages of playing at an online casino. First of all you get hundreds of different slot machines in your screen and you don’t even have to get up to change to a new slot machine. Plus, the incentives online casino give to players such as bonuses, comp points, cashbacks and gifts, are all possible since they don’t incur on so many expenses as normal land-based casinos. They don’t have as many employees as a hotel-casino does, nor do they have to treat players every day to food and drinks as most land-based casinos do. Instead, they use their extra budget to entice players to deposit with promotional money and all the loyalty benefits we just mentioned.

There is little uncertainty now as to why Las Vegas casinos are not doing so well. Perhaps they should create their own online casino sites and catch up with trend.

Free Online Flea Market Fun

Friday, January 8th, 2010

Sometimes I just feel like sitting down in front of my computer and playing a classic hassle-free online slot. I’m not in the mood for complicated visuals or story lines. I don’t even feel like having to think about the payout combinations with 20 different paylines. All I want to do is hit the spin button and watch the minutes go by. Classic three reel slots are simple since everything you need to know about the game is right there, on the same screen. The symbols, the payout, the reels and whatever special features the slot may offer.

One of the best classic three reel slots I like playing is called Flea Market. This 3 reel slot game has  1 payline and the theme is of a series of small fleas in a, you guessed it, flea market. What they’re doing here is uncertain but they keep the game simple just how I like it. However, as simple as it is the graphics and icons are well crafted and fit really well with the game. The coin size for betting in Flea Market stands at $0.05 and up to $5.00. Players are allowed to wager up to 2 coins per spin with a maximum bet of $10. I always prefer playing maximum amount because it highly increases my chances of winning. If you decided to play with max coins here you could win up to 10, 000 coins at a time.

This jackpot is mad possible because Flea Market does offer a wild symbol. In this case the wild is the ring symbol. Being the wild symbol in the game means that whenever it appears it will substitute for all other symbols on the reel to complete a winning combination. If you happen to land three of these you could score the $10, 000 prize.
