Don’t be Misled By Online Casino “House Players”

Great fortunes are both won and lost daily at online casino sites, and when it comes to websites such as YouTube, you will find no end of channels that are dedicated to those who gamble online and can watch as those channel owners set about playing casino games online.

In fact, some of those gamblers have a huge following, but sadly there are a handful of them at least who are not actually gambling with their own funds, but they are best described as “house players” whose bankroll is actually supplied by the casino sites they are playing at.

As such you will often see them playing for some huge and unbelievable stake amounts, and in turn, they are simply shills for those casinos they are gambling at and are paid for pumping out those videos of their gameplay.

When they win big, which they inevitably do when gambling for huge stake levels, that often leads to many of their channel subscribers believing that they will do the same, and in turn, they sign up to the promoted casino, and often go on to lose their bankroll, and occasionally much more besides.

If you are thinking about gambling online, then please do not base your decision on which casino sites to sign up to on the recommendation of some Social Media “influencer” or someone who has a YouTube or Twitch channel, do your own research by checking out, for example, a website that offers an index of sister casinos.

By doing so, you will be able to make a much more informed decision on which sites are going to be best suited to your own personal wants and requirements, rather than a casino site that is paying someone handsomely to promote them by giving them their stake to gamble with.

As for just which games are going to be worth playing, if you do want to try out an online casino, the first thing you do need to ensure is that the ones you sign up to and become a new customer of are licensed, ideally in your own home country.

By doing so and sticking to playing online at licensed casinos, you will have the peace of mind in knowing your funds are safe and just as importantly that the games you will have access to are completely random, fair, and true.

Plus, many gambling commissions have rules in place that state all online casinos they license and any gambling sites that offer casino-styled games, must make known the payout percentages attached to all of their games, that being the value of their stakes that players can expect back as winning payouts, over the long term.

When you look those payout percentages up, you will discover it is games such as video poker that do tend to offer the highest paybacks, and other card games such as Blackjack do offer extremely high paybacks and low house edges.

Slot machines on the other hand, will all have their own long-term expected payout percentages, and with that in mind you should make a point of looking up the higher paying ones and stick to playing those games, for over time you will get more of your stake money back as winning payouts.

You can of course beat the odds at any time when gambling online, and for those of you who fancy becoming a big jackpot winner, you should make a beeline to play some of the progressive casino games that offer life changing jackpots and can often be played for some relatively low stakes.

Base your decision on just which games to play on the paybacks each game offers, not the recommendation of someone on YouTube or Twitch, for as many of them are paid by casino sites to promote casino games, the ones that they may be playing could indeed be the very lowest paying games, that offer players no real value.

You could be tempted to sign up to a casino or for that matter any other type of gambling site purely based on the value of their respective sign-up welcome bonuses, but be aware all such offers do tend to come with a set of terms and conditions.

You should always read them through and digest them, for by doing so you will soon discover whether you have any real chance of winning when claiming a set of bonus credits or whether the play through requirements mean you have very little chance of actually winning anything.
