Free Online Casinos For Everyone

People have loved betting throughout history, then be it the ancient kings, or be it the current generation. Gambling in some form or the other has always been alluring people. But it remained a craving for people who were not living around casinos, or were unable to go to one for whatever reason. Introduction of casinos online was like a prayer answered for thousands of gambling lovers. And even after online casinos captured all potentials, they still lusted for more. They wanted more revenue, and they wanted more popularity for their online casino. This led them to ‘invent’ the idea of free online casinos, which has been super-successful.

There can basically be two types of free casinos – one, which lets you start up without any initial deposit and instead offers a hefty bonus just for signing up, which becomes the person’s first casino balance and is technically free casino gaming (for the person). The other type, which is actually free throughout is mostly referred to as a ‘free play casino’.

Casinos offering conditional free play, like the ones that are offering bonuses on sign up, are not really free for long durations. They’re more like an offer of free casino for a limited period. The reason is, although the player doesn’t have to make any initial deposit and is instead supplied with a real money balance to begin playing, the balance has to be replenished (by the player) with ‘real money’ once it exhausts.

The online casinos that would truly be classifiable as free are the ‘free play casinos’. Free online casinos can be also be categorized into two types on the basis of their interface – those that allow their games to be downloaded, and those that allow the free games to be played online.
Certain online casinos or downloadable casino games are exclusively and really free, and generate operational costs and profit through advertising revenue. However, the majority of such ‘free online casinos’ are either online casinos that offer free gaming as well as money wagering, while some others are procreates of other online casinos that provide gambling for money. Why they do this, will be discussed in the ensuing.

To begin playing with a real ‘free play’ online casino, users are given some ‘free money’ (unreal money) as their first fund to play with. The ‘free money’ also called ‘free chips’ can be used like ‘real money’ for playing the casino games. The chips can be used as the wagered amount for games, entry fee for tournaments and stakes for the casino games. Winnings result in increment of the ‘free money’ balance with the winning amount and balance exhausted due to fees or lost bets can be replenished for ‘free’ on the website.

The reasons that bring people to these free casinos online could be many. Some may just be regular gamers, wanting to play casino games for a change, while some probably want to enjoy the thrill of casino games, without the risk or gambling (betting with money). But, the majority of people that use free casinos are really there to learn and practice their gambling skills before they move on to money wagering. Using these free casinos is really the training ground for most people, where they can learn the games’ rules, procedures and winning strategies, and practice enough before moving on to money wagering with confidence. In fact, it is estimated that as many as 80% of free casino players, end up as gamblers (for money).

Interestingly, this is exactly what the purpose of providers of free online casinos is. They instill confidence in the gamer and either frequently tempt the gamers to wager for money, or redirect them to their procreator online casino for money wagering, which was their real purpose of creating the free casino anyway.

So, taking advantage of the free play casinos is advised, but cautiousness should be maintained before moving on the real gambling.
