Most countries don’t have a big problem with their citizens gambling online. Even nations that have tougher laws on internet gambling, such as the United States, don’t often take legal action on the matter.

In fact, they use the Great Firewall of China to prevent citizens from accessing non-government approved websites. Regardless of if you’re visiting or living in this country, you can’t just hop on Google and find what you’re looking for. You instead must use specific Chinese apps…

Most craps players treat rolling the dice as a completely random occurrence. They may wear a lucky shirt or say their prayers beforehand, but they don’t do anything unique when rolling the dice. However, a small subset of players believe that they can actually control the random craps’ outcomes. They claim that by holding the dice in a certain way and rolling them with a smooth motion, they occasionally manipulate the results. Dubbed “controlled shooting,” this strategy promises long-term profits through craps. Unfortunately, controlled shooting (also known as dice control) is a complete lie. I’m going to discuss more on…

Baccarat is popular due to its simplistic gameplay and low house edge. You can lower the house advantage to 1.06% by betting on the banker hand winning every time.
