This has led to a lot of myths about what a casino is, most of which are untrue, ill-conceived, and total nonsense.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this article, we together with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.casinobernie.com\/ca\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CasinoBernie.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> identify the most popular casino myths in circulation and hit back with the truth. Some of these misconceptions are even carried by casino players themselves.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Get ready for a thrilling adventure as we beam our spotlight on the truth behind popular casino myths.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Myth 1: It is illegal to Gamble Online<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is perhaps the most shocking online casino myth circulated today. Of course, it is not true, online casinos are legal in many countries. Although some countries enforce a ban on online casinos, their numbers are not large enough to declare it as the norm.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is like saying because there are no smoking areas in some buildings, smoking is illegal in America.\u00a0 Utter nonsense, right? That is how it is when people say online casinos are illegal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Canada for example has tight restrictions on private operators running online casinos, but they allow its citizens to use online casinos located outside of Canada.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Who controls the agency that issues out online gambling licenses? It is the same government that issues out these licenses through its agencies such as the UK Gambling Commission or the Malta Gaming Authority.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Myth 2: Online Casinos Are Pre-Programmed to Favour the Casinos\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This myth is by no means true. Yes, the online casinos always win but it is not because they program their games to favor them but because of the randomness and unpredictability nature of the games.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The only time you may have cause for alarm is when you play with unlicensed casinos that are not regulated. They are a lot of them online that aim to dupe you of your money rather than offer you fair services.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is wrong to label all online casinos as rigged because of a few bad eggs. If you play with a licensed casino, you can expect fair play and completely random selections.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another reason why this is not true is because of the nature of online casino games. They make use of a powerful algorithm, the Random Number Generator (RNG), that delvers random outcomes. Both the player and the online casino establishment cannot predict the outcomes because it doesn\u2019t follow any pattern\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the odds favoring the online casinos in the long run, it is the height of madness and self-destruction for an online casino to rig games. If they get caught (which is certain to happen thanks to modern surveillance technology), they will lose their players, have their licenses revoked, and get banned for it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Myth 3: If You Record Long Losing Streak on a Slot Machine, A Big Win Is Due<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is false. The Random Number Generator (RNG) makes this myth untrue. It can work for a few people but it is by no means the law. Also, your finite bankroll can hinder this strategy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every spin on a slot machine is unique. Even if you study the last sets of spin results, it can only show you the result of your past spins but cannot predict what will happen next. The idea that a big win is overdue after a long period of losses is false. It is a mere wish and nothing concrete.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Myth 4: It Is Not Safe to Gamble Online\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fear here is genuine. Online activities such as payment transactions are susceptible to cybercriminals. People are right to fear the safety of their personal information online. The general myth that online casinos are havens for cybercriminals is no way near the truth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Online casinos invest a lot of money building secure websites.\u00a0 They also employ some robust security measures like the use of SSL encryption, deployment of the latest security technologies, and other measures to block any form of access for cybercriminals. Cybersecurity experts are also employed or consulted to check for any loopholes cybercriminals can use.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you can conduct cash transactions online with your bank without safety fears, you can do so with online casinos.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Myth 5: Casino Is a Game of Luck<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This myth has lots of truth in it. Luck plays a big role in many casino games, especially the ones that fall into the soft game categories \u2013 Slot, roulette, Craps, and Bingo. For these soft games, luck plays a leading role. For hard games like Poker, Blackjack, and other table games, skills play a leading role in determining the outcome.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Luck and skills are important both play key roles when playing casino games. It is wrong to say that casino is purely a game of luck.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Conclusion<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Knowing the truths behind the popular <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/2020\/story?id=3102356&amp;page=1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">casino myths<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> will make you a better casino player.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is a general lack of understanding about casinos among people.
