Europe is becoming one market and online gambling is another proof of that. There are many online gambling players that are trying to enter the market but a few will be the winners at the end of the day.
This is just an exciting moment for poker players, casino players and sports betting players as they will have access to many more opportunities to play and this will be to their benefit. When you think about it, let’s take the example of Germany, there used to be one public player to offer all those services. One day and this day will come up soon where everyone will be able to use betweek 10 and 15 players in Spain for online casino games! This is great news because this is gonna change a lot of things for the customer… And this story will happen in France, Italy, Greece, Belgium, Sweden,… This represents a market of 370 million people. This is quite exciting!
One thing that players have to be careful though… There will be a lot online gambling players but a lot of them will not offer great services for the right price: will they pay if you win? will you have issues with the country where you are resident? how are they using your data? is it safe to use this site? what about the pricing of the bets? what about the use of your credit card details? tax issues?
At the end of the day, just try to find the site that is right for you. For poker, the sites with the most players are probably the best (the more liquidity, the better). For sports betting, the most established websites are probably the best (the more established, the better). For online casino, the sites that are transparent make more sense for you.
Have fun gambling online in Europe wherever you are!
With the development of online gaming, there are more and more opportunities to enjoy bingo cards. It is a very simple game. Be careful not to be confused with the game bingo. It’s a card game but it’s different from bingo cards.
Let’s consider a specific example: 75 ball bingo.
75 ball bingo cards have 25 spaces, with five vertical rows (with letters B, I, N, G and O) and five horizontal rows (5 x 5 = 25). Each of the 25 squares contains a number form 1 to 75 (except for the center square).
Numbers are distributed along the following rule:
- column B: 1-15
- column I: 16-30
- column N: 31-45
- column G: 46-60
- column O: 61-75
Finally the highest number in this game is 75.
On the web site of the Ontario Problem Gambling Centre (OPGRC), you can find the following report “A D2 Antagonist Enhances the Rewarding and Priming Effects of a Gambling Episode in Pathological Gamblers”. It is an interesting and detailed paper on the effects of dopamine on gambling.
“In Gamblers, haloperidol [a dopamine antagonist that blocks a specific dopamine receptor, the D2 receptor] significantly increased self-reported rewarding effects of gambling, post-game priming of desire to gamble, facilitation of reading speed to Gambling words, and gambling-induced elevation in blood pressure. In Controls, haloperidol augmented gambling-induced elevation in blood pressure, but had no effect on other indices. The findings provide direct experimental evidence that the D2 substrate modulates gambling reinforcement in pathological gamblers.”

Johnny, a golfer from New York comes to Las Vegas for vacation.
He golfs all day and then gambles at night. One night, he has a lot of fun and drinks a little too much. The next day, he wakes up in a random hotel room. He looks to his left and realizes there is a woman next to him.
He looks right and sees a marriage certificate framed on the bed stand with his name on it (along with a name he doesn’t know). At that point, he realizes he might have made a mistake…
He says to her: “I don’t really remember last night, but did we get married?”
“Oh, yes” she responds, “It was so romantic”
He replies, “I believe in the sanctity of marriage and I willing to stand behind my commitment, but I should warn you, I’m a golfer and while you’ll see me in the evenings, during the daylight hours I’ll be out on the course”
She says, “I appreciate your honesty, so I should be honest too. I’m a hooker”
“That’s okay, just turn your clubface outward…”

Bingo is quite a funny game. It is a basic game of chance. Selected numbers are drawn. Then, players have to match these numbers with the ones appearing on a 5×5 matrix. This matrix can be online or printed. It is known as “card’. To win, it is pretty simple. If you have a card form a specific pattern (straight line or diagonal), you win! You have to yell “Bingo!” to tell other players in the room. Online Bingo is quite a fun game. There is also a specific game called “bingo logic”. It is used with scratch card games. In this game, the numbers are pre-drawn. Then, they are hidden until the card is scratched.
You can play it with your friends or family and enjoy it for a few hours. It is a pretty popular game all over the world (United States, Malaysia, Japan, Italy, Spain and even the UK).
To give you some history about this game, it is a very old game. It has been created in the 1530s in Italy. Back in those days, it was called “Lo Giuoco del Lotto d’Italia”.
