where to start?

lorena williams · #1 11-24-2009, 05:23 PM

One thing I've always found hard as an avid player of online casinos has always been where to start and which games to play as a new player.

As a player

I've found that the overwhelming selection of games may make it hard for most new players who have never played at online casinos to select and choose an online casino game to play. With the model for the online casino lobby it's kind of difficult to know where to start.
I think that as a good general rule of thumb it's always good to start out with some of the latest games that they're offering is always a good move for the new casino players.
Once you get into the groove and you have a selection of games that you like playing and play often you'll see that these games will appear in the "Favorites" section that can be accessed in both modes of the lobby views.
Another thing that is good which unfortunately they don't offer anymore was a description of all the key features of each of the games within their suite which for slots for example includes the number of features, primary jackpot and secondary jackpot, etc...
My other suggestion is to really try playing the casino games that spark your interest for free in fun mode before proceeding to bet and play for real money.

Thanks for posting that info!! I always like to find all the new ones to try. The new ones are most of the time marked new on them. But if you have a favorite see if they have it on the site.

I would only bet the ponies ands sports online. Please take into account you are playing against a computer program this is programmed to take your money. If every hand or bet had a chance of winning they would go broke.

Well, yeah, most of the time. But we don't play for "most of the time". We play for the few times the house doesn't have an advantage and hope we have the courage to walk away when we're ahead. Kinda of a good metaphor for life.

But I do agree with lorena, the latest games tend to be pretty exciting, and you really can't beat that "fresh out of the box" feeling.

Good Hunting!

You are right about the computers beinf set to take your money. There is no doubt about it. Thats how they make money and remain open for business. But thats also why you should always know that it is the luck of the draw. Nothing is for sure. Only play for fun and never spend more than you can afford.

Well for a new player it always has bee a big problem like from where to start, and which game to choose. As each game is a new game for that player. So it would be hard for him to choose among different games. So it would be better suggested to choose the game which is requiring less or no luck like slots machine and must practice other mind tricking games like poker, blackjack, on free casino games providing sites like Fulltilt Poker, PokerStars and Bodog. This way he would be able to both playing the casino games and also will be learning the others remaining games.

I personally won't put money into anything that I've never even tried before. So I look for places to play where you can try the new games for free. At least get a feel for the game and see if you even like it before depositing.

I don't play blackjack online. I go play blackjack in Las Vegas with real cards and real chips.

I've played at Bally's Casino, Bill's Gambling Hall, and a couple others during my travels to Vegas, and blackjack is best played on a real table where you can chat and get free drinks for playing.

I have only played Blackjack a few times and it was either practicing online or on a machine in a casino.

It would do me no good to try it at a table. People would be throwing things at me because I dont know the first thing about table Blackjack. And if I did have a free drink, I would be asleep on the table, and again, unhappy blackjack players. Lol
