Scotland and Online Casinos

Whether you live in Scotland or are just visiting, you have plenty of online casino options. As noted elsewhere on this site, you’ll have to be in one of Scotland’s major cities if you want to visit a physical casino (Glasgow, Dundee, Aberdeen, or Edinburgh). Although some people prefer a live casino experience, there are many skilled gamblers that frequent online casinos, or Internet casinos.

Aside from the obvious benefit of not having to dress up and spend money on travel and sustenance, online casinos typically draw gamblers in with better odds, more generous paybacks, and introductory offers or bonuses. Online casinos aren’t merely for newbies and amateurs, either. The more skilled online casino games like poker attract some of the best players in the world. Professional players’ earnings come from a combination of live and virtual gambling.

Scotland’s most accomplished gambler is arguably David “Vampy” Vamplew. Born in Fife in 1987, he famously won PokerStars EPT and UKIPT Champion of Champions live events in 2010. This was the year his career really took off, and he’s since had a string of successes at the World Series of Poker (WSOP) and other events. Vamplew makes a significant part of his income from online poker at sites such as PartyPoker and PokerStars. He remains a globally respected poker player.

Of course, not everyone can be a world class poker player. And even the most skilled players have to overcome the luck element and the rake (house commission) to come out a winner, whether online or live. As long as you have the money to spare, you can play online games that rely more on chance, such as blackjack, roulette and the slots. These are all games where you can win substantial money if it happens to be your day.

If you love the thrill of the casino as much as you love Scotland, you can enjoy both in any location by visiting casinos online.
