For many years most people in Ireland who enjoyed gambling concentrated solely on sports gambling, more often than not on horse racing or football. Some did have access to a casino and were able to enjoy gambling on the few casino games available at these casinos, usually limited to roulette and blackjack and the occasional poker tournament. Other than that our gambling probably consisted of the lottery, bingo or the odd slot machine in our local pub or club. Then along came the online casinos, bringing casino gambling to a whole new audience. Suddenly anyone with a home computer could enjoy gambling on an ever increasing range of casino games in comfort and without the need to travel. As more and more online casinos entered the online gambling market, the range of gambling games we could play became more and more extensive, and the competition amongst the casino operators for our custom became more intense. Visit any of the major online gambling sites and it quickly becomes clear where the battle lines have been drawn, it is of course the slots and video slots, with each site promoting their own particular versions of slots games usually accompanied by welcome bonuses and rolling jackpots. It is in this field of casino gambling that the various online casino operators can distinguish themselves from their rivals, and most of them really concentrate all their efforts and space on persuading us to play their versions of what are of course the quickest and easiest gambling games to play. There is no doubting the appeal of the slots for new online gambling fans, they do not require any skill or experience and can be played for very small stakes. Many of them are also designed to appeal to our other interests, such as sports, television, films and even comics, but the choice is vast. If you are a fan of slots gambling, don’t forget that the slots which are highlighted on the home page of most online casino gambling sites are just the tip of the iceberg in terms of the range of games you can play, and it is always worth clicking on the ‘other games’ tag to check out the full range.
