People everywhere love to gamble. Every day, all over the world, millions of people from all different walks of life are hard at play, furiously counting and stacking their chips, throwing the dice, and dropping coins into slots. It's almost a universal vice whose appeal has spread like a brush fire.
In the United States alone, for example, the past 20 years has seen an unprecedented increase in both the popularity and social acceptance of gambling as a form of entertainment. What was once considered akin to the Devil's work - completely banned in all but two states - has now exploded to include 48 states and generate revenues in excess of $60 billion a year, a staggering sum that's greater than all of the money generated from spectator sports, theme parks, cruise ships and recorded music combined.
Despite such enormous growth, the type of gambling available from one region to the next is, no pun intended, a craps shoot. While some places allow casino gambling, others restrict play to one of the more genteel varieties, such as charitable bingo and state-sanctioned lotteries. Until science develops a method that allows people to instantly travel from one place to another at the touch of a button, such a thing is rarely, if ever, feasible.
Online gambling, also referred to as Internet gambling and I-gaming, is a recent phenomena. The next evolutionary stage of the gambling industry, it is the marriage of the world's love affair with games of chance to a burgeoning technology that provides 3-D digital realism and real time actions. Through this exciting new venue, gamblers can use their credit cards to bet on their favorite games of chance or sporting events, play the lottery, bet on the ponies or almost any other type of wager they can imagine. It's a tremendous advance in gaming technology and a boon to the travel-weary gambler who need no longer be a victim of distance.
With that, we welcome you to the world of online gambling, and wish you endless hours of gambling entertainment, good fortune and most of all, prosperity.
