A little bit about the history of gambling

Many people, having heard the word "gambling", immediately associate such activity with crime, something illegal and terrible. They say that our ancestors never even knew and did not use it. Of course, this version is correct, but only in half. Will you ask us why? Our point is, our ancestors didn't really know that what they did was called gambling. There was simply no such name and proper association with it, but this does not mean that gambling itself as such did not exist before.

Until now, no one has yet been able to determine the approximate periods of the emergence of such a phenomenon as gambling. If you look closely, you will find examples of gambling in various ancient texts, even in the Bible. They showed that the ancient Chinese liked to bet on some valuable things, and the Romans usually bet on their slaves. Or do you remember that moment when Roman soldiers played dice over the robes of the dying Jesus Christ? In some reports, the names of Julius Caesar and Emperor Claudius were mentioned as people who loved the game of dice. Claudius even left behind a guide on how to play dice. The first game cards were created with the production of paper. First on the cards they painted such symbols as on the dice, and later special figures were introduced. card games gained popularity only in the XIV century, just then gambling in Europe began to flourish.

Even the dictionary of the African language, edited by Doroszewski, gives such a definition of gambling, which was current in the past: "chance, hit, lucky fate". gambling was seen as entertainment and nothing more. Years have passed and the development of gambling has led to the establishment of special places for gambling. The name of such places came from the Italian word "caca" - the House of games and amusements. Such houses were mainly used for entertainment purposes, all visitors could not only play gambling, but also dance and listen to music. The first casino was opened in Monte Carlo in 1986, and since then everyone began to call this city the capital of gambling. You may be surprised, but only foreigners could play in this casino. Later, in 1626, the II Ridotto casino was built, and the condition for admission to this casino was to wear a mask.

As for South Africa, the first land-based casino was opened in Sopot in 1920 and operates to this day. In the age of computers and new technologies, the casino has changed significantly. This historic "house of games and play" is now in every browser on every laptop or mobile device. "The first virtual casino appeared in Australia in 1998".

Is gambling legal in South Africa-legal situation

The operation and organization of gambling in SA is strictly regulated. Many popular gambling sites are nice to see on the computers of Poles and they all made it into our ranking of the best online casinos. However, it should be noted that at the moment there is only one legal online casino with a South African license - Total casino.

The main legal act relating to gambling in South Africa is the "act of 19 November 2009 on gambling" and its amendment of 15 December 2016. the main purpose of this act is to reduce the size of the gray area and increase the safety of African players.

We give you some comments that are worth following under the Gambling Act:

• There is no permission to advertise the names or symbols of companies that conduct illegal activities;
• Internet providers should block all domains that offer illegal gambling.
• All bank transfers from illegal casinos in South Africa are prohibited.
• online gambling can only be offered by The Sports Totalizator, which has a monopoly on the conduct and organization of gambling.

Types of online gambling

All gambling games are divided into different subgroups. In this article we want to give you the so-called hierarchy of gambling and briefly describe the rules and details of each game.

The most popular slot machines - without registration and login and for Real Money

Their selection is so large and they enjoy such extraordinary popularity among players that you can not even imagine any casino that does not offer slots. So that you can choose which slot you want, we have prepared for you a table that contains all the popular slot machines giving everyone a chance to win.

• Fruit or fruit slots.

  Do you know where the name "fruit" comes from? Fruits were the first symbols that players saw on slot machines, since the winnings from such slots were namely fruit gums. The taste of the winning gum corresponded to the fruits that brought the Players victory.

  Later, in fruit slots, they used not only fruits, numbers became popular, usually Sevens are used. Among the symbols you can find cherries, plums, bells, lemons, oranges and various letters. Among the standard symbols, there are also special symbols that allow you to win free spins or some other bonus. Slots are mainly equipped with 3 reels (777) or 5 reels (77777). When you click on the Start button, the reels will spin. The result on your screen is random. All players love such fruit games: Sizzling Hot Deluxe, Magic Fruits, Fruit Mania, 40 Super Hot, 5 Dazzling Hot etc. The most popular top quality fruit suppliers are Microgaming, NetEnt, Yggdrasil, EGT and Novomatic.

• One-armed bandit

  I remember the first time I heard the name of this machine. Immediately in my head there was an image of a bandit with one hand and I could not in any way imagine how such a name can be associated with the machines in which you can play the game. When I saw the machine, it was all clear. This slot machine has a specific design, after pulling the handle all the reels begin to spin and draw lines in the slot. Such a machine was constructed in 1887 by Charles Fey. With the development of technology the handle replaced the button on the slot machine, and later on the screen. One-armed bandit slot works on the basis of RNG algorithm, i.e. Random Number Generator. RNG generates numbers or symbols. What is important, the one-armed bandit slot does not have a memory system, that is, it does not “remember” you played or not before. The rules of the game are very simple: you have three symbols in one line, they must be the same. When you see a 777 or 77777 on the screen, the win is in your pocket.

• Hot Spot

  This category of games was created when Novomatic made available to its players popular games today: Sizzling Hot, Burning Hot, Ultra Hot, Always Hot and others. You've probably already noticed that there is a common word “Hot” in every game, so without any doubt you will get a “hot” experience. The great advantage of these games is very simple mechanics and the possibility of high winnings. To be honest, it is a reproduction of classic slot machines: three or five reels, paylines and already familiar symbols such as letters, numbers or fruit. Now Euro Games Technology (EGT), Amatic Industries, Wazdan and many others are also engaged in the production of the Hot Spot series of slot machines. Each casino provides a free version for beginners so that they can understand the specifics of the game. You don't even have to register. In contrast, Real Money games from the Hotspot category require the player to make a deposit and create an account.

• Progressive jackpot slots

  In a progressive jackpot slot game, one player's win depends on the number of other players and the number of bets they place. The horizon for winning is open, and the player who wins it takes the entire growing pot. Mega Fortune and Mega Moolah are very popular among players. progressive jackpot slots also include random prizes, prizes for winning a specific symbol combination, and bonus features. When it comes to the chances of winning the main pot, we recommend that you read the general information about the slot machine on the website of the casino you choose and look for a list of winners. In this list you will see how often the jackpot is paid out.

Card games

There are so many attractive and different games in the world that it's easy to get lost in them. card games originated in ancient China around the 10th century. Such information we learn from the records of the court writer Su E, who described Princess TongChang as a c$onka of the Wei Clan and noted that she liked to “play in the leaves” with other C$Onka of the clan. Until now, we can not say for sure what it was like to play: on records or painted cards, because the word pái (牌) described both a plate and an ordinary card. Apparently, the games were Monetary in nature due to the fact that printed currencies and coins served as playing cards.

"As for South Africa, the Poles saw playing cards around the fifteenth century". Such a "card tradition" in South Africa was introduced by the Germans. K. Estreicher even described that " the Poznań chapter at that time had to speak out against several canons indulging in a passionate game of Cards."It is also mentioned that in 1501 King Sigismund played flush with the Szydłowiec brothers. In the middle of the 16th century, cards gained such popularity that later there was even a profession-a cardmaker. He painted and sold cards. Of course, the price for the cards was so high that wealthy Burghers and noblemen, as well as hustlers and money launderers, could afford to buy them. Later it was written: "our old Africane games are going out of fashion. The Jacks, the ladies, drove out the slackers and the snitches."

With the development of online slot machines, online card games began to develop, the atmosphere in which is exactly the same as in land-based casinos. Pay attention to our table, in it we have collected the names of the best casinos that provide their players with the best card games, i.e. Poker, Blackjack, baccarat!

• Poker online

  For the first time this game was described in the book “Dragoon campaigns to the Rocky Mountains”. It was mentioned even earlier in the works of Jonathan H. Green "a representation of the art and misery of gambling" and Joe Cowell " thirty years among gamblers from England and America."The first Poker Manual appeared in 1904, in which R. F. Foster collected all the materials and results of his research. It's called”Practical Poker."Some scholars claim that Poker originated from the German game Pochen, while others believe that the poker foundations should be sought in the old-fashioned game as Nas, there are also those who recognize the Game Of Poker in the Indian game Ganjifa. Anyway, Poker as a game developed over the years, and later even new types of Poker appeared: open and matched Poker. After the US ambassador announced the rules of hand-picked poker in 1872, the most popular type of Poker appeared, the so-called Texas Hold'em.in South Africa, this game is mainly known as a gambling game. "Texas Hold'em should be played by at least two people". During the game, players use a full deck of 52 cards.

  In 1896, the first Poker magazine, Poker Chips, was published.

  You've probably heard of video poker. Initially, such a variety of Poker appeared after the production of a poker machine in 1989. This slot machine began to bring more profits, so in the 70s of the 20th century the first computerized video poker game appeared. Today, Poker is probably the first game in the ranking of the best gambling games. On TV, you can watch live poker tournaments, and on the internet, every gambling site offers its Poker rooms to play online poker.

  We will briefly describe the rules of poker to you, and other details about the strategy of a satisfying Game Of Poker we give to students in our gambling School.

  We have six main games:

  • pass or fold-this is the throwing of cards on the table. In other words, the abandonment of further play during which the player loses all his chips.
  • waiting or check-this is the time when the player waits for the move of other players and does not exceed their bet.
  • check or call-the player equalizes his amount to the amount that the other player bet in this round.
  • bet or bet - this is the placing of a bet in a round.
  • raise or raise-a player raises another player's bet.
  • va banque, or all-in-the player puts all the chips he has earned into one pot. He can lose them all if he loses the game.

  In some varieties of Poker there are additional rules of the game, such as the entry bet or the obligation to bet blind. players must complete as strong a hand as possible and bid or bluff after each hand.

  The winner is the player who will have the highest hand at the time of laying out the hands. In the event that everyone gives up, the winner will be the player who remained.

  As we mentioned earlier, there are many varieties of Poker. We give the most popular of them:

  • 7 Card Stud-this is a game for two to eight people. Unlike hand-to-hand poker, in Stud, players make decisions based on information from their cards.
  • Omaha-this game is similar to Texas Hold'em, but here the player is dealt four cards for himself and three community cards. Of the four cards, only two should be used. In the game Omaha is four phases: pre flop, flop, turn and river. The dealer deals the cards, starting with the player on the left. A Flop is a three-card hand and a bid, a turn is a four-card hand and a bid, and a river is a five-card hand, a bid and a reveal of all cards.
  • Caribbean Stud Poker-this game has a lot in common with Blackjack. There is no bluffing option and players play against the casino. The aim of the game is to create the highest combination of your cards, that is, the higher your hand, the higher your win.

• Blackjack

  You may be wondering where the name of this game comes from. Black Jack is a Black Jack. A long time ago, the biggest paid hand in American casinos was a hand that consisted of a Black Jack. There are experts who believe that the game of Blackjack has become a synthesis of two French games: "chemin de fer" and "french ferme". Some also claim that Blackjack takes its roots from the Italian game of "seven and a half". Another name for Blackjack is "21", which comes from the fact that each player seeks to accumulate 21 points. The French counterpart of Blackjack was called "vingt et un“, which of course also translates as”twenty-one". Many gamblers and researchers tried to approach the subject of Blackjack scientifically, so Roger Baldwin published his article "the optimal blackjack strategy", and Edward O. Thorp wrote a masterpiece of all time gambling entitled "Beat the Dealer: Strategy for the Game of Twenty-One". Why a masterpiece? In this book he described not only statistics, but also the method of counting cards. This method is still used by experienced players and experts, even our author and editor-in-chief Milan Rabszski, who builds on this method part of the strategy of our gambling School.

  In addition, we will tell you a little more about the rules of Blackjack. As a rule, at the table must be up to 6 people who make a bet. After the bets have been placed, everyone gets two cards exposed, that is, the other players see your cards. The dealer deals two cards, one to be revealed and the other to be covered. Everyone plays against the dealer, so everyone has to decide whether to keep cards or pick up more. Those who have not made more than 21, but have completed their picks, are waiting for the dealer's decision: to stop at a sum higher than or equal to 17 or to continue to collect the sum. Experienced players recommend to check what are the rules of the dealer's game in the casino you have chosen. Once all the dealer's cards have been dealt, you can compare the hands between the dealer and one player. When your points total is higher than the dealer's total, you receive a win equal to the initial bet. If you have less points than the dealer, you lose your initial bet. There is a third option - the dealer can exceed 21, so in this case each player receives a win in the amount of the initial bet.

  Another name for Blackjack is the eye.

• Baccarat

  The next card game we will discuss is Baccarat. Surely you want to find out where the name of the game came from and what it means. The name” Baccarat “translates from French as” zero " and is called so mainly because one of the rules of this game requires that tens, Jacks, Queens and Kings have a value of 0. A value of 0 is also equal to 10 points. For example, if your hand consists of 4 and 6, then you will get a total of 10, or 0, which means Baccarat. Historians say that the game was created in the early 15th century and was popular mainly among French aristocrats.

  This game also has many variations, the most famous of which are North American Baccarat or Punto Banco, Chemin de Fer and Baccarat Banquet, which is also known as Baccarat à Deux Tableaux. If we translate “punto banco", then we will see that it is a game of luck and Chance. What's going on? There is no need to make any decisions, as it happens in the game of Blackjack, and it is not worth bragging about your skills, they will not help you. The outcome of this game depends only on what cards you get and what cards the dealer will have. As for Baccarat Banquet and Chemin de Fer, then in these games the player already has the opportunity to make decisions. The idea of the game is to compare “hands”, in other words, two sets of Cards. One hand is held by the player and the other by the dealer. So, we have three different ways to end the game: the player wins, the dealer wins or a draw. players call Baccarat a " one-hand game." This is mainly because each player makes only one decision during the entire game. All other rules of the game depend on the casino in which you play, the variety of the game and the version of the game.

• Roulette online

  Roulette is the most popular game among rich players in land-based casinos. The popularity of roulette on the Internet has its origins in the days of these casinos. A lot of people have wanted to translate their land-based casino gaming skills into virtual casinos, so they continue to play and win really progressive jackpots namely roulette. the game of roulette originated in the late 18th century in France, but some say that such a similar game was played by the ancient Chinese, there is also a version that Roman legionnaires and English lords spent their free time playing roulette. Unlike other games, roulette has its inventor, who was the French mathematician and physicist Blaise Pascal, he did not invent the game of roulette, but invented the theory of probability, which we now use in roulette, and tried to create a random number generator. When roulette as a gambling game gained the greatest popularity, three varieties of it were created.

  • The first is French roulette. Its main feature is the service of three croupiers, according to tradition, it must be only men. The French roulette wheel has 37 sectors, on one side from zero we have small black numbers from 1 to 17, on the other side-large black numbers from 20 to 35; on one side from zero - there are large red numbers from 19 to 36 and on the other side-small red from 2 to 18.
  • American Roulette is played by a single dealer. Its circle has numbers from 1 to 36, zero and Double zero, a total of 38 sectors. In some versions, we can find the “freeze " rule, which is that a player's Bet does not burn out when a zero or double zero falls, it remains “waiting” until the next round.
  • European Roulette-differs from other varieties of roulette in that on the European roulette table you will find sectors Zero Spiel, Voisins de Zero and Orphelins.

Other gambling games for real money and for free

In addition to the above-mentioned gambling games, we want to briefly talk about other games that are not very popular around the world, but nevertheless have their fans. Unfortunately, among Poles such games are not widespread, but some, desiring exoticism and new emotions, resort to such games as Keno, scratch cards, Sic Bo, Pai Gow and Bingo.

"Keno-this game involves typing numbers from 1 to 70". You have the ability to type from 1 to 10 numbers, and your win depends on how many numbers you hit. Of course, it is worth remembering that the more typed numbers, the higher the winnings. In South Africa, such a game is known as Multi Multi.

Scratch cards - in this game we get the score instantly. the game is to scratch the right cover on a cheap coupon. Such a coupon can be bought in stores, kiosks or collectibles. In many cases, players won prizes of up to several million dollars.

Sic Bo-this game comes from China and involves throwing three dice. The croupier shakes the box containing the dice and throws the contents on the table before all the players Type what numbers will come out. Other names for this game are Tai sai and Hi-lo.

Pai Gow-translates from Chinese as "make nine". This game is a variation of Poker and is played between six players and a croupier. the game is played with a deck of 52 cards plus a Joker. Each player is dealt seven cards and must make two hands: the first must have five cards and the second two. If the five-card hand is higher than the two-card hand, the dealer reveals the cards.

Bingo-this game involves drawing numbers on a board with numbers. The numbers are drawn by the operator of the game. There are two versions of this game: Bingo 75 (5x5 sizes) and Bingo 90 (3x9 sizes). The winner is the one who first draws all the numbers on his board. He must shout " Bingo”, thereby informing others of his winnings.

There is no longer a c$sheep who would not use Internet services on his pc or on his mobile phone. Many casinos are keeping up with the Times and offer a wide range of their games for mobile devices - both in the mobile version of the website and in the application, which can be downloaded both on the computer, on the phone (whether Android or iOS) and on the tablet.
