Who's Really at the Online Casino?
The online casino has attracted people from all walks of life all over the world. The US has the highest volume of gamblers, UK comes in second and the rest of the planet is not too far behind. With every passing day more and more players join the excitement that is the online casino. But who is really sitting next to you at your favorite poker room? There is no way to tell, anonymity is key, but as a recent survey discovered, you may be surprised by whose beating you out of your money at the online casino.

But as you know assuming makes an… well it's just not a good idea. In fact, over 51% of all online casino gamblers are women, and it is the anonymity that attracts them most. It is not surprising that most women are too intimidated to enter a poker tournament, as many men consider it a mans game, and try to purposely remove a woman from the playing table. The online casino allows these female gamblers to feel the excitement of doing well at poker, black jack or craps, without the stares or comments from other players.

In addition, the online casino is a fantastic way for all players to build up the confidence necessary to do well in the stressful gambling environment of a land-based casino. There is generally less pressure on a player at an online casino, as games such as blackjack are played solely against the dealer; therefore your choices do not have any consequences on the other players. This is probably why an overwhelming number of women enjoy online casino play; they have the ability to build their game and poise, to take their skills into live play gaming. So next time you find yourself one on one against an amazing player, remember that you may lose to a girl.
