Over the last decade, the casino gaming industry has expanded through the Internet in the form of online casino games. Casino games are now no longer confined to the slot machines and poker tables of Vegas; they have entered households around the world, with money being deposited and also won through secure online transactions. With deposits as low £5, online casino gaming has broken the stereotype that it is only played by the rich. It has helped the casino industry to tap the unexplored middle-class income market through its online games.

Here are a few online casino games that are emerging as the favourites:

• Blackjack - It is the most popular game on all casino destinations in the world, and it comes as no surprise that this card game has emerged as the most popular game on the Internet too. The stakes do not have to be high in the online games, so you can enjoy playing without the worry of losing too much money. Blackjack consists of card games that are played on wits. Winning is not dependent on just luck, which is another reason for its popularity.

• Roulette – This is another game that is growing in popularity online, where you predict the number on which the ball will fall after the roulette has been spun. You place your bet on numbers. It is a game where luck plays a major part and people normally play this just for fun. The bets to be put are again not high in the online games.

• Red Dog - It is another very popular card game. Like blackjack, winning in red dog is not dependent on just luck, and requires the player to be sharp and attentive. However, unlike blackjack, Red Dog is a single player game and even if there are multiple players, each player is competing alone against the cards. The rules of this game are also a little different from blackjack, and players normally place bets based on the probabilities given.

• Dice Games - There are numerous dice games played by online casino players. It is popularly known as the game of chance where the most popular game is called Roll 'Em. It basically involves prediction of the merged face up value of the two dices rolled in tandem, and the probable results range between 2 to 12. Luck does play a major part but you can increase your chances of winning by betting on outcomes, which are more likely to come as they are reflected in the odds offered.

The world of online casino has a lot more games to offer. For example, the online casino site, Sky Vegas, has more than 130 games to choose from such as roulette and blackjack among others. Other online casinos are similarly generous to their customers and offer hundreds of new innovative and fun games. These casinos also give their players great bonuses. So, if you want to have fun on your couch at home and make some money alongside, give online casinos a chance.
