Online Blackjack News - Females prefer gambling Blackjack and Poker on the Internet
|
|
Recently conducted surveys suggest that about 50 percent of all the online gamblers are women. Moreover, the figures point to a steady rise in the number of female gamblers, playing blackjack, slots, poker and bingos. Yet, women seem to opt for online casinos more than for their land based counterparts, mostly, due to the unwelcoming atmosphere of the last ones. The intimidation of predominantly male surrounding seems to be a deterrent effect for many women.
Internet gambling, now celebrating its tenth year of existence, has been dramatically deployed in the recent years and the $6 billion revenue, collected yearly by the state speaks for itself. With almost 2,000 online casino websites featuring the games of blackjack, poker, roulette, baccarat, slots and more, people who in the past have only dreamed about visiting the forbidden fruit of casino gambling are now attending it at their home computers on the daily basis.
Diane Berlin, a representative from the National Coalition to Ban Legalized Gambling emphasized that females, on the general note, are more prone to go for less skill based games at land based casinos and favor blackjack and poker on the Internet. The reason is that they feel incompetent when seated at the real blackjack or poker tables due to the judgmental attitude coming from males and online they are absolved from it. However, women who gamble in online casinos are at serious risk of bringing upon themselves shame and depression.
