We all know that even though more and more women make it big in what is still a man’s world, people simply look differently at bad habits with ladies than the exact same habits with men. I am far from what you would call a ‘feminist’, but still we have to look at the facts. If a woman drinks, she’s labelled as an alcoholic, while if a man drinks – even excessively, he’s simply going to a rough time. Granted, perhaps things now are not as bad as they used to be many years ago, but I still get stared at when I sit at a poker table where I am the only female player. I guess taking their money doesn’t make it easier on them to accept me, but it sure feels good. Anyway, bottom line is this is merely one of the reasons for which I prefer online gambling over dressing up and going to some fancy casino in London.
Another factor that made me turn my attention towards the online sector is the comfort of getting up in the morning and enjoying a nice bingo session in your jammies. Warning! I do not condone nor do I suggest the first thing you should do is gamble when you get up, but it does save you a lot of time and energy. Besides, the chances of running into your mother in law at online sites is slim to none. Yes, that has happened to me and believe, it wasn’t pretty. And the funniest thing is she came up with a lame excuse that some friend of hers works there or has a nephew that works there. Anyway, she got away with it, while I had to explain to my husband what I was doing in the casino, when I was supposed to be having a drink with the girls. Oh, well, few months ago he said he was going fishing and was actually playing poker with the guys, so I guess now we are even.
Truth to the matter is it is simply more comfortable to play online, not to mention cheaper and faster. Of course, let’s not forget that there are many bonuses and fun promotions that you can take part in also, while land-based casinos do pretty poorly in this aspect. And if you decide that you don’t feel comfortable playing with real money, online casinos also offer a demo or play mode, so you can enjoy the games without having to wager anything. Pretty neat, huh?
