052 Make money with Online Gambling – The Casino

This article is the first in a short series dedicated to the different ways to earn money through online gambling. And since we have to start somewhere, let’s talk about online casinos first. Later we will also look at sports betting sites and the national lottery.

What does it mean to make money playing at a casino?

When we talk about casino, we immediately think about poker, slot machines, blackjack, roulette, etc. These different types of games are indeed numerous and well present on the online casino sites. To play them, all you have to do is sign up and then fill up your game wallet from which you will have to draw for each bet on one of the games you play.

The winnings are also real as you can get them back in the form of money and not gift cards or other bonuses as is sometimes the case on some other types of gaming sites.

The great thing about online casinos is that they allow anyone to play from anywhere since all you need is a smartphone, an internet connection, and then download an application or go to their website, to be able to play.

The possibility of winning money relies primarily on chance. Well, this is true for physical casinos because online casinos rely on algorithms since chance does not exist in computers world. But whether it’s one or the other, you will have no form of control over the outcome of the games you play.

There are, however, techniques for maximizing your chances of winning. These techniques are often more interesting in online casinos than in physical ones as we will see later.

Beware of addictions!

I’m going to put a big WARNING here because this kind of site can quickly become addictive! Gambling addicts are numerous, and it’s even a disease that has a name: “Ludomania“. People who suffer from it develop a compulsive and irrepressible addiction that often plunges them into great psychological distress but also financial difficulties.

If you think this could happen to you, then avoid this kind of site. There are plenty of other ways to make money. And if you are already a victim of this evil, here is the link to the help center for the US, UK, Canada, and Australia. For the others, a small Internet search will help you find it quickly.

Who can play at online casinos?

As with physical casinos (like those in Las Vegas, for example), there are 3 conditions that must be met in order to play at online casinos:

  • 1You must be of legal age, which varies from country to country, but is generally the age of majority.

  • 2You must have money because without money you will find it difficult to gamble. Also, most online gambling sites require a minimum amount of money, which varies by platform.

  • 3You must not be on a “black list”, which means that you must never have had a problem with online gambling sites (scam, addiction, etc.).

Of course, gambling must also be allowed in your country. Even today, gambling is prohibited in many parts of the world. So if you want to know for sure, a little Google search should shed some light on the subject. I know that there are ways to get around this restriction, especially through the use of a VPN, but it’s up to you to see what the risks are for you in this case.

Are online casino sites safe?

Even though online casinos are highly secure and closely monitored by government agencies, scams do exist. It’s best to research about each site before signing up.

The types of scams that can be encountered are diverse, and among them are the impossibility of withdrawing winnings, insecurity of transactions, manipulated algorithms to prevent users from winning, leakage of your personal information, etc. To find out what users think you can always check out sites like Trustpilot, but be aware that reviews are sometimes biased as some users rush to this kind of site to express their frustration when they have lost money.

There are also tests on various blogs, or even some comparators that will show you a top X of the best online casino sites, but be aware that many are far from being of exemplary objectivity because they will display those who make the most money (via a commission) first. The best thing to do is to test this out yourself by just betting a little money and see how it goes for you. You will see that you will have better luck at some casinos than others.

Finally, consider checking the legality of the casino. Each one of them must have a license which should be easily accessible on their website. You will usually find this information in the footer or in a dedicated section accessible via the navigation menu.

How to find a good online casino?

Security is an essential parameter to find a good online casino site, but it is not the only one to take into account. You should also pay attention to the conditions for receiving bonuses, the withdrawal methods offered as well as the speed of execution, the efficiency of the customer service, the variety of the catalog of games offered, etc.

Because in addition to the mythical games such as poker, blackjack, slot machines, etc., most casinos also offer all kinds of new games specially developed for their platform. It’s up to you to decide which ones you want to play.

Finally, you should know that the casino keeps part of the winnings, in the form of a commission that is usually around 5%, and distributes the rest to the player. This rate can vary from game to game and from casino to casino, so it may be best to choose one of the less “greedy” ones.

If you’re not sure which casino to choose, here’s a small selection of the ones I found interesting.

Please be aware that online casinos may be banned in certain countries, while in others such as the United States and Canada, they may only be available in a limited number of states or cities. Also, keep in mind that many of the websites listed here may also be accessible in other countries/languages.

The classic casino

If you are old school, if the mere mention of the word “Internet”, or any other word referring to any 21st century technology, triggers an epidermal reaction in you, you can always go to the good old physical casino—if there is one not too far from your home.

You will be able to taste the pleasure of playing various games such as poker, roulette, baccarat, blackjack or other games such as craps or bingo, and all this in an atmosphere that sometimes reminds us of those old American thrillers of the 50s.

The principle, as you probably know, is very simple: You buy chips in cash or by card, these chips are used to place your bets, and when you have enough, you go to the counter to withdraw your winnings in the form of cash.

There are techniques to increase your chances of winning, such as card counting in Blackjack, but in most physical casinos these techniques are prohibited and closely monitored by security guards.

How to maximize your chances of winning at online casino games?

In order to maximize your chances of winning at online casinos, it is important to know the rules of the game you are playing and to practice regularly. This training is possible thanks to the demo versions of the games offered by the online casinos or by tutorials and videos available on the internet and YouTube in particular.

This documentation will allow you to find the possible flaws of the games and to acquire a complete mastery of the rules. You can also learn some mathematical techniques, such as counting techniques for blackjack.

Be careful, however, because the demo modes may differ slightly from the live modes, especially for the slot machines, which depend on the algorithms. The stress level, which is different when playing for money, can also be a factor.

It is also important to play responsibly in order to avoid big losses. You can do this by setting win and loss targets for each session. You can choose to bet only a certain percentage of your capital (20%, for example). Don’t stay focused on a loss for too long either: They are inevitable in this kind of game, and the important thing is that they are not too big.

Finally, you should know that there are two types of players: the specialist and the generalist. The specialist is a player who decides to focus on one particular type of game while a generalist will play a little bit of everything. Many players start out as generalists and end up playing only one game, or even two or three. But you’ll find that out when you start playing yourself.

Conclusion

So, are online casinos a good plan for making money? Well, it’s pretty hard to say, but as this article explains, the more you practice in a field, the more you will acquire certain skills. Which translates into: The more you play, the more you master, and therefore the more often you should win. Now, this is theoretical and may only be true for certain games, but some poker players, for example, have become millionaires thanks to this.

If you like to gamble, don’t have money problems, and don’t have any serious addictions, online casinos are a great way to make money and have fun at the same time. As for how much you could win, that will depend entirely on you and your luck.

But if your goal is to win money quickly, without taking too much risk, then forget about gambling. There are many other ideas that could help you make money, and you can find them easily with our search filter.

EcoTips

Environmental and climate change issues are more than ever at the heart of the concerns of this 21st century, which is why I am proposing a few ideas that will enable you to limit the negative impact that the implementation of this idea could have.

These solutions that I suggest are sometimes largely insufficient to compensate for these negative impacts, such as carbon offsetting. Unfortunately, there is not always an ideal and 100% efficient solution, far from it. And if you have others, please do not hesitate to share them in the comments below.

Like all Internet sites, online casinos are hosted by servers that consume a lot of energy. Their impact on the environment, without being catastrophic, is no less significant. And as far as I know, there is no eco-friendly solution. Not much to do here, except to limit your playing time, perhaps.

Pros

  • It’s fun
  • You can play from anywhere
  • The payouts are potentially high

Cons

  • Losses are potentially high
  • Beware of addictions

Disclaimer, please read this Legal and administrative aspects of the ideas you'll find on Sweekr are rarely discussed because they vary greatly depending on the country you live in. I would advise you to check with your local government before starting any business. Keep in mind that if you make money, the state will ask for "its share" in order to guarantee the proper functioning of schools, hospitals and other public services. Therefore, you will probably have to acquire a micro-entrepreneur status, or any other similar.
