The giant disadvantage is you can never realm leave because you're just a click away from being back. Plus you can click your life away in one night. I think that is too powerful. Casinos are always more fun and exciting than where you live.

Very true. The money is so abstract and the venue so accessible that you can find yourself making stupidly large wagers deep into the night while tanked up on JD.
Been there, got the t-shirt.
Also, even the casinos with solid reputations can still rip you off if they invoke their universal 'If we decide you are not playing in good faith, we can close your account and retain the balance' Got that t-shirt too.

If you are enjoying the game, you're already winning.

My nephew and my GF's little brother were playing small limit poker at 13 and 14 online at Bovada and a few other sites. They both won a little bit and moved on to other things like girl's
Now in their 2O's they have good jobs families and don't have any gambling problems. They both like to gamble occasionally but no more or less than the average American male.

Axel,

Your example of confirmed family and friend members falling perfectly into the American dream after starting to gamble ONLINE at the early illegal age of 13 appears to be suspect to me. Especially after these kids had a winning first time experience gambling at an age certainly uninformed about the actual facts of life, and yet how they eventually pulled the winning plug out of the drain and moved onto a more serious life. Most adolescent kids if they made $50.00 would try to make $100.00 and on and on until great success or ruin.
Instead of setting a more mature example at that time for the kids (8 yrs. shy of legal gambling age) your demonstration of being a good uncle and friend also comes into question. Did you help with them to cash out their winnings? Did you provide beer while they were gambling?
Regardless of the important point I’m making above, you just always seem to have the perfect example or story that will always fit into any condition or narrative when it comes to gambling. No matter what negative points are brought up about gambling you always have a counter to the positive. I’m not talking about negative bad AP plays which of course you already would have been aware of and knew about, I’m talking about everything else about gambling. It’s like your always trying to justify you chosen life style of hustling.
One last question or two or three or four if you don’t mind. When you knew the children were playing poker ONLINE why didn’t you jump in and teach them how to AP? Wasn’t that the time millions were being made online AP’ing? Why didn’t you take them under your wings and show them all the money they could’ve and should’ve made?
Did you make millions ONLINE when the ONLINE dream existed for AP’s, and if not why not? I read somewhere that the money to buy this site and others by the new owners was made AP’ing BlackJack online. Do you think that was a rumor started just to promote online gambling?

Disadvantages
You can be cheated in the course of play, and you would never know it.
Colluders, or one person playing multiple spots, can exploit you, and you would never know it.
A collection of poker pros could use their combined knowledge to scam thousands of people out of millions of dollars (but gee, that would NEVER happen).
The website can vanish like a fart on the wind, along with your money, and you would have no recourse whatsoever.
The site's location is in some overseas location that you often can't even discern, and it's usually someplace like the People's Mango Republic.
The site could hack your personal information and resell it. Your personal financial information will be protected by all the safeguards written into the laws of the People's Mango Republic.
I recommend that instead, you sign up for my Blackjack by Phone casino. 100 percent guaranteed kinda honest-like.

There's no need to socialize. You're just there by yourself. Socializing is healthy. People who are glued to their smartphones all day long whose eyes never rise to meet others have lost something and they don't even know it. And yes, the loss of and lack of trust with an online entity is significant.

If you question my story, my Nephew and his girl are actually in LV now on a mini Vacation visiting his in laws and their newborn. If it's important to you I can have him confirm that story I told with one or more WOV members.
Since he was not 21 at the time it would be difficult to learn or exploit AP. And since didn't live in Vegas it would be difficult for him to learn. He's successful working in the oil business and was making 100k + a year since he was 18. He actually has taken advantage of a few LV promotions during his trips to Vegas. This time he wanted to do the loss rebate at Plaza. I don't know if he did because unfortunately I was heading out of LV a few hours after he arrived.I Had just enough time to hook him up with rooms from someone, and hang out as I played a promo. He plays his local cash poker games and tournaments on some weekends and seems to be moderately ahead. He's taken advantage of his local small limit BJ games where dealers are sloppy as hell.
I didn't help him cash out his online poker accounts, his parents did that as it was their accounts he used. I did give him advice playing $20 heads up turbos. It's not like he was depositing thousands and feverishly clicking away 24/7. I wouldn't need to buy him beer since I think the legal drinking age in ND is 13 ....If you get what im saying? Personally I think kids should be exposed to gambling at a young age and learn the odds and know what's good/better to play and what's terrible to play.
As far as online gambling goes I was not willing to invest large amounts of money online like some people did. I deposited and played amounts I felt comfortable with and I did just fine. I was fairly picky what casinos I played at. People who made millions had a network and did lots of multiaccounting. I have already said before that it was a mistake not going for it big without reservations, however I could say that about lots of stuff like not investing more or at all in things like Bitcoin, gold, Facebook, google or microsoft. Also if I was solely doing that I would've missed out on other things.
I understood there was a significant amount of money to be made with online affiliate programs, I dabbled in it a bit, however I didn't understand or know what it took to get traffic. It's hard to do multiple things at once, I concentrated on what I knew how to do and my social life.
As fas as specific numbers go I would never discuss such things especially with a stranger online. It wouldn't matter anyways, I could just lie and inflate stuff, as many people do online. There's always someone more successful, better car, bigger house, smarter, better looking, more fit, happier, with a hotter girl/guy or cooler than you or the next guy.

♪♪Now you swear and kick and beg us That you're not a gamblin' man Then you find you're back in Vegas With a handle in your hand♪♪ Your black cards can make you money So you hide them when you're able In the land of casinos and money You must put them on the table♪♪ You go back Jack do it again roulette wheels turinin' 'round and 'round♪♪ You go back Jack do it again♪♪

If you question my story

Personally, I think your imagination and slickness is second to none. Was waiting to see how you were going to turn my negative post into a positive. Good job.

I find your response pretty insulting. You're barely in bounds at the moment, and I may reconsider.
There are people who don't need to lie, because the truth is fantastic enough. In my experience, Axel is one of those people. He lives a big, outrageous life, and talks openly about much of it.
There is more than a bit of what he told you above I can vouch for, though I've only known him a couple of years. The rest he has no reason to lie about.
I grew up gambling as well, playing bj for money from age 6, and poker for money from age 8 or 9. Not regularly, not as a job, but yeah, we didn't play for matchsticks either. If we'd had Internet gambling, I don't doubt we'd have done it.
I still managed to have a normal.life with a career, a marriage, owning houses and cars, not throwing my money away on gambling. What's so hard to believe about that?
If you have other things you want for your money besides games of chance, you don't play for significant amounts of money. If you're addicted, you bet the rent, borrow beyond your means, whatever it takes. I don't personally know anyone like that, or at least know that about them. But it takes more than early exposure to gambling to make a person an addict.

For the first few years of the poker boom, mobile players were limited to just a couple of sites. The same was true for those wanting to play casino games on their mobile devices. Luckily, the popularity of mobile gaming exploded to the point where sites are now essentially forced to develop games for mobile players. Across the board, pretty much every outfit offering online gaming also makes their product available on mobile devices, across all operating systems.

Any experienced mobile casino or poker player will tell you that there are distinct advantages and disadvantages to gambling on your mobile device. These advantages and disadvantages range from the physically cumbersome variety all the way to the types of issues that affect your online bankroll. Today we take a look at some of both.

Advantage – Play From Anywhere with Internet

The primary advantage to playing online poker or casino games on your mobile device is that you can play games from anywhere you can get an internet connection. Stuck at the in-laws’ place for the weekend? Log in and play a little online poker. The same goes for when you’re at an airport and waiting for your flight to be called.

Maybe you’re at your kid’s recital and he/she isn’t scheduled to start performing for another 30 minutes. Time to play a little blackjack on your mobile phone. You can scratch that itch to gamble anywhere you’d like provided you have internet access.

Disadvantage – Support is Usually Lacking

One major disadvantage to playing online poker or at an online casino via your mobile is that there’s usually a lack of support for mobile users. Some sites offer a bare bones introduction for mobile players.

Advantages and disadvantages of online gambling

If you’re looking to help on how to actually play at online casinos using your mobile, odds are you’ll get no more than “download our app here.” If they do offer tutorials, it may be for slots or blackjack.

Moreover, not every casino operator has a webpage on how to play roulette from a mobile phone, which isn’t fair to the users. Not everyone comes to an online gaming site looking to play slots or blackjack, and overlooking these customers is costing them money in the long run. A tip, then, for all you online gaming operators out there: you’ll have quite the competitive advantage if you’d just invest a little more into providing your customers with full-fledged support for any issues they’re likely to encounter with your software on their mobile devices.

Advantage – Mobile Games Run More Smoothly

One major advantage to playing online poker via your mobile is that often you’ll enjoy a smoother playing experience than on your computer. The majority of casinos offering mobile sites have optimized those games mobile.

If they don’t offer a standalone app, most are now offering HTML5 technology rather than Flash, which is faster and much more secure. Sites using HTML5 also aren’t as limited as PC apps in terms of compatibility as they only have to worry about being compatible with a handful of browsers rather than being compatible with hundreds of different PC brands and configurations.

Disadvantage – Screen Size Limitations

The convenience of playing on mobile comes at the cost of a smaller screen size. This smaller size forces some players to play fewer games than they would normally. Even when they multi-table, they often have trouble seeing the game and action as well as on a PC or Laptop. Some sites also limits the number of open tables on mobile.

Another problems with the smaller screen size is that mobile players are more error prone. Since you’re having to tap the screen to control action, you are more prone to hit the wrong button or even “fat finger” the controls. The smaller the table screen, the more likely you’re going to make an error.

Advantage – Mobile Players Get Exclusive Bonuses

Finally, if you’re playing at an online casino or poker room on your mobile, you may be eligible for exclusive bonuses. Online poker rooms and casinos want more players access their sites via mobile and will reward them for doing so.

The most common bonus is a welcome bonus. Make your first deposit after signing up via mobile and get free cash to spend at the poker room. Some casinos will give free spins for signing up via mobile. Others will award free spins or cash just for downloading the app.

Note that mobile bonuses aren’t always advertised on the main site, so make sure you access the poker site or casino from your mobile phone prior to signing up to ensure you don’t miss out on any bonuses. As we all know, poker is all about making money, so these extra bonus offers often tip the scales when weighing all the advantages and disadvantages of playing online poker on a mobile device.
