    i still prefer land based casinos over online, i like the feeling of cash in my hand when i win and no waiting, drivers lic. sign my 1099, pay my taxes on it and im happy and ready to move on online makes it easier for those that cant make it to the b/m casinos or just like the thought that gambling is just a click away, which sometimes can be too easy and cause problems, but this could also be turned around the other way, alot of peeps have lost homes, marriages and worse from gambling at both places......................laurie

    I also look at it this way for myself and few friends that play slots with me its 4 hour drive. So if im going to play online i can deposit 25 here or there and if not hitting move to another online casino or stop for the day but damn if im going to drive 4 hours and play with only 25 dollars and say nothing is hitting, ill drive home now and try tomorrow. I most times stay there for over 20 hours, if nothing hits down 800 900 where is online you can control what you spend easier then land based if its a drive. Land based also have comp hotels and meals and concert tickets and so on another good way to spend few hours if slots arent paying. At home you clean walk your pets lol

    I lived in Las Vegas for about 10 years and I loved going to the casinos- But when I started popping out all my girls ( I have 4 ) I couldn't go to the casino's but still wanted to play. I got hooked online, I think land casino's are great for the fact if you hit big the money is there immediately. I think I prefer online for comfort of playing in my own home.

    Thats true they pay out right away but i also wanted to point out and with reading a few threads on here i have had to show my id in land based casinos on wins over 1000. And yes was more then just my drivers lisc. health card social insurance number and yes they did ask me to let them photo copy a bill to have on file in office. With gas prices right now thats a extra deposit into online casinos right there hmmm maybe thats what ill do make my 3rd deposit this week.

    Thanks a bunch! I was just looking for a casino with the good players' odds, and it sure hasn't passed my mind to look for one where the player and the house share their equal odds! :-)

    When we could play in the US I would vote for online play. I felt the odds are better, your favorite machine is always available and I usually could recoup a bad session quicker. No taxes online either and you can play in your jammies!Land based are a hassel, you have to plan the trip, drive and I agree I am not going with $25! I usually stay about 10-14 hours so I have to have a good wad of cash. But since I don't have a choice I have gotten into a routine of going every Friday night for some VP & slots and I have done OK. Only had to pay taxes once so far. But don't ya just HATE the drive home?? It seems so much longer than the drive there!

    The dull lights, the neverending tinkle of coins, the senior citizens bashing the roll button like its a life support feeding machine. I'll take the comfort of my house anyday despite free drinks.

    I rather go out then go online lose to much money IMO. I know which slots to play and don't have to worry about not getting online, software crashing, sending documents over to complete strangers. Sheesh I don't know why I started in the first place. I rather go out at least I would do more than gamble.

    For several reasons I gamble only online
    - there are so many recommended and good casinos available
    - nothing beats the comfort of playing in your own home. If you want to play
    slots for half an hour you dont have to prepare, dress up and drive
    - you can always find good bonus offers or cashback deals
    - slots payout ratio is much higher from my experience.

    Cheers Balky
