Let’s face it – we can’t all be rich. That’s how capitalism works, after all – some of us have billions, others have millions, and others still have hundreds of thousands. And me… Well, I’ve got two dollars and eighty-five cents American money! Okay, that was actually just a Twilight Zone reference, I may be the Poor Man, but I’m not that poor, nor am I American (so I actually don’t have any American money… I guess in that way I’m pretty poor, yeah). Still, it’s a fact of life that I adore gambling with all my heart, and yet can’t always afford to part take in it. I mean, sure, there’s always gambling videogames and practice modes where you don’t really play for real money, but it’s not the same, is it? No, to truly gamble you need to have money on the line! So, in a blog post that’s waaaaay overdue, we’re going to be examining some tips and tricks for gambling on a very tight budget!
1. Low-Limit Tables Are Your Friends!
Whenever you try to play a game online, you’ll often be able to choose the table where you want to “sit”, especially when playing live casino. Be sure to always pick the low limit tables! And when I say low-limit tables I mean the ones where the minimum bet is 1p. Where the tables are located, or even if they’re there at all, depends on the casino in question. Try finding an online casino which is friendly to poor people like us. I can’t really give you any concrete suggestions, but honestly, it’s not that hard to find, especially since you can view many of the limits without even registering by going into practice play. Keep in mind that live casinos generally keep their limits a bit higher.
2. Take Advantage of the Bonuses!
Casino bonuses are really going to be your best friends here, trust me! For those of you who don’t know, sometimes when you make a deposit into an online casino (especially your first deposit) you get some extra spending cash for your commitment. Now, obviously there’s some strings on that money, because otherwise people would just deposit, get the bonus and then withdraw their cash, doubling their investment for free. But hey, since we’re poor, we have no right to complain about that. You can view the various deposit bonuses offered online on sites such as realmoneyonlinecasino.co.uk, so at least you don’t have to go and check them one by one.
3. Focus On Slots!
Now, this tip may not be for everyone, but slots (generally) have one of the lowest entry prices in all of gambling. You can absolutely play a whole ton of slots for 1p, where it might be harder to play games like blackjack with that amount of cash. Coincidentally, many slots also offer jackpots to players regardless of how much they bet – I even spotted a couple of news stories about people winning thousands on a 1p bet, so you never know!
