Gambling has been known as the most exciting pastime for centuries. However, as money is almost always involved here, some countries prohibit this activity. Nevertheless, after the Internet invention, each one, who has a net connection, can visit an online casino and bet there. Gambling has become a part of life for people of certain countries and regions.
Great Britain
British are known for their traditional love for horse races and sports betting for years. Meanwhile, they are known as the most active online casino gamblers. Statistically, they invest (and lose) in gambling over 15 billion pounds. They bet using all kinds of games but slots and Bingo are chosen most often. Officially, there are over 9 thousand legal bookmaker companies. Over 100 thousand people work in the gambling industry!
Ireland
Irish and British have something in common. For instance, each of these nations enjoys gambling. To understand how a real-money play excites them, it is enough to look through the Ireland gambling statistics. Annually, Irish say “goodbye” to 2 billion pounds, sending them to casinos accounts. On average, one person loses half a thousand pounds a year while betting.
Despite their strict laws that limit some types of gambling, Irish people ignore them (simply these laws are too old to be used nowadays). Besides, considering these changes in modern life, many of these laws were changed a bit. Now, renewed casino rules, especially for online gaming resources, are followed.
Finland
Until 2011, Finland was the only country that let people start gambling since the age of 15. Later, the law was corrected, and now, as in most places, only a person who is 18+ can register for a money-mode play. Nevertheless, the changes in law here did not have the desired effect. They say, over 40% of Finnish people do gamble at least 1 time per week. However, the guys, who live for gambling and who open an online gambling site to make a bet every day also exist, and their number is constantly growing. When a person looks through offshore and international online casinos, he will see than most of these resources are happy to welcome new customers from Finland. National lotteries there are also in trend.
Australia
Green Continent players stay active despite the location of their country. Online play lets them do it. Australians call slots “pokies” and it differs them from other guys who are not indifferent to games of chance. These online pokies are extremely popular, and even land pubs have a bunch of them. There are over 100 thousand officially registered gaming machines there, and it is supposed that in reality, this number is bigger.
Singapore
Gambling appeared officially there only 10 years ago (the government wants to protect its citizens from gambling and losing money). However, it has started developing so fast, that no, some people travel to Singapore only with one aim: to stay at a luxurious resort and combine the best ever rest with gambling. Locals cannot play in land-based casinos for free: they have to pay an entrance fee. It is done to protect Singapore from losing much money.
