The recently conducted study indicates that nowadays more people enjoy online casinos and every once in a while visit land based casinos to get fun, entertainment and social experience (Vegas and Macau are one of the most popular place to go gambling).

However, attention was paid to the fact that lots of benefits of land based casinos are being found now in greater quantities in online casinos. Online casinos have many of the same games as the land based places, but there are also other benefits (your own furniture, ability to smoke and wear your pijamas, less conflicts) that cannot be found in land based casinos.

The online gambling world is becoming more and more socials. Online casinos are adding live dealers or avatars to make the gambling experience more real. In addition to that, the space in online casinos is unlimited. It is more likely when you log in you’ll find either new games or new options.

There is one more thing that explains the preference of current gamblers: playing online, you can learn how to play, while going to a land casino you’d better be prepared.
