One encounters many dubious claims in the world of online casino gambling, and perhaps number one on that list is the constant ranking and listing of supposedly “best paying” online casinos. What are you, the serious or casual player of online casino games, to believe?
When it gets right down to it, the online casinos are all more or less consistent with their odds and payouts. In the highly competitive world of online casino games, nobody can truly afford to be too generous or too stingy.
The same situation exists for the physical brick-and-mortar casinos. However, the online casinos have two specific benefits, which may or may not be obvious:
- Firstly, have you ever — even once — visited a brick-and-mortar casino that let you play for free? If you have, let me know…I’ve lived in Las Vegas for over a decade and I have yet to see a dealer say “Nah, sit in for a while. We’ll just use Monopoly money this time.”
It just won’t happen. But any of the best online casinos have plenty of free games. All the addicting and fun games that you know and love from your last trip to Atlantic City…but free. Yep, totally free. Whether your choice is free no download slots or free online tournament poker, they are exactly the same games that you’d play if you were at an online casino. Because that’s where they come from.
- Second benefit of an online casino versus a “real world” casino: the online casinos do not offer you food or drink, they don’t have to keep up a hotel property, and they only need to hire enough people to run the business side of the website. No housekeepers, no busboys, no pit bosses and (well, you can’t have everything) no cocktail waitresses.
What this means, of course, is that online casinos only have to offer you, the player, better odds, better payouts, and perhaps most importantly: better bonuses. Without the “actual” casino to own and operate, the players have a lot more room to really clean up.
Well, I’ve said my piece. Next time you wonder who online has the best paying games, you can be pretty sure it’s any of the online casinos that I’ve mentioned above. To get more specific details, you’ll just have to visit them and compare them for yourself; each has specific benefits that may serve you better than the next guy. But all will do a little better for you than a trip to Vegas. Having said that, I am going to miss that cocktail waitress, though…
