There is no doubt that the internet has been a beneficial influence for most of us, even though there are of course dangers associated with some aspects of the content. Nevertheless most of us are now comfortable with shopping online, booking hotels and holidays, and even banking online. We communicate with friends and family via the internet and many people also spend much of their leisure time taking advantage of what the internet has to offer. The internet has vastly increased the options we have when considering what we do with our leisure time, none more so than in the online gambling sector. When the big bookmakers first set up their online sports gambling sites the most obvious feature of those sites was the huge range of sports and sporting events which sports gambling fans were suddenly able to follow. They were no longer limited to horse racing, greyhound racing and football, which tended to be the only sports featured in the betting shops, and they could even follow events from all over the world. The next development in the online gambling world was even more startling in terms of the increased options it provided. We are referring of course to our favourite topic here at onlinecasino.ie, the introduction of casino games online. The bookmakers were looking to get the maximum benefit from their investment in the technology and software to set up their online sports gambling sites, and decided to add a few gambling games with the idea of encouraging their customers to spend longer on the site and therefore hopefully spend more money. It very quickly became apparent that the idea of playing what we now generally refer to as casino games online was hugely popular, and all the leading bookmakers who were operating online gambling sites began adding more and more games to their sites and the online casino was born. The range of casino games we can now play online has continued to expand, and many of the big sites offer as many as two hundred different casino games for us to choose from, ranging from traditional casino games such as roulette and blackjack to bingo and of course a huge array of slots games. The rapidly increasing number of online casino games is why we decided to publish the rules of many of these games on our individual casino games pages, but the site operators themselves also realised that their customers might need a bit of help. Their answer to that problem was the very welcome free online casino feature. Nowadays almost all the online casino operators offer a free online casino option on some if not all of their games, which allows us to try new games without the need to risk any money while we learn how they work. Of all the innovations we have seen as the online casinos have developed, the free online casino feature is almost certainly one of the most important. There is no point in offering a huge range of casino games on an online casino site if people are not encouraged to try new games. Many people who started to play casino games at a real casino will probably remember losing money because they did not fully understand how a particular game was played, and there was no other way to learn. The online casinos can afford to offer us the chance to play their casino games free of charge, at least for a short while, whereas a real casino with much higher overheads could not even contemplate the idea.

The free online casino option is a feature which all of us can take advantage of, even those of us who started playing casino games at a real casino. In Ireland most casinos were only able to offer their customers a choice of roulette or blackjack, with maybe an occasional small poker tournament, so very few of us ever had the opportunity to play other traditional casino games such as baccarat or backgammon. Now that these popular casino games are available online we can begin to understand why they are so popular in casinos in other parts of the world, and thanks to the free play option learn to play them at our leisure. Some of these traditional casino games are of course easier to learn than others, but it is still a good idea to play a few trial games before playing for real money, if only to become comfortable with the graphics. Craps for instance is clearly not a difficult game to learn, but new players need to know what betting options are available and where to place their bets on the table. The same is generally true of all the slots games, which again are mostly relatively easy to play. There are however some slots games now available at our online casinos which have so many betting options and winning combinations that a few free spins are definitely beneficial. When it comes to casino games such as backgammon the free play option is definitely a welcome feature. This is a casino game in which although the number of moves is decided by the throw of the dice, experience in how to move the checkers around the board will invariably count in the long run. Experience is also important when playing another of the traditional casino games which is now readily available online, the game of poker. Playing some forms of poker at an online casino against the house remains relatively easy to learn, and few free hands may be all you need. Playing Texas Hold’em poker at one of the many online poker platforms however is another matter entirely. The rules of Texas Hold’em poker are reasonably easy to learn, but almost every poker expert will tell you that the experienced poker player will usually be the winner in the end. Texas Hold’em poker and backgammon are certainly two online casino games best learnt by playing as much as possible before risking any serious money, and where the free online casino option is most valuable.
