In the beginning, basic games were available online. Games such as Scrabble or Chess were some options. Some fantasy games were also played. They were, in a sense of the word, the grandfathers’ of today’s role playing games. As technology advanced, so did the internet; therefore allowing gamers to have better access to online casino games. Games such as: Texas Hold ‘Em Poker, Blackjack, and slot games are fan favourites. In Blackjack, you want to get a number as close to, or actually get the number 21, in the hand you are dealt. Aces are worth ten points or one point, whichever is better for the player. Face cards (Kings, Jacks, Queens) are typically worth ten points. The dealer is also playing the game with you. You want to beat the dealer. In Texas Hold ‘Em Poker, the gamer is betting, checking, or folding. You aim for your hand to beat the opposite players’ hands. The highest hand dealt is a Royal Flush. Playing games online is so much easier to access, which is what makes these games so popular. Over the past decade, the popularity of these games has grown leaps and bounds. There are many explanations for this phenomenon. First and foremost is the accessibility. Gamers can play in the comfort of their home, sitting privately in their underwear playing Blackjack until their hearts content. It is not just that easy for avid gamers to purchase plane tickets to Las Vegas every time they wish to play any casino games. Secondly, casino games are a distraction from the everyday humdrum of the world. Distractions are always welcome. Last, but certainly not least, online casino games are just plain fun!
