Computers and also the Internet probably will be the most fast-growing field of technology, for this reason, within the nature of things, the casinos and poker-rooms try and ride the ground-swell and use new technologies that became available recently wherever it is possible.
The very first online casinos are already made in simple HTML, but since the advent of Java language as well as with spread of flash technology online casinos started to use these technologies. In the course of time, offline casinos have improved graphics and sound and also have added new games. Creation of online casinos had end up being the first considerate achievement in online gambling along with development of broadband access. In these casinos one plays not against computer dealer but against real dealers playing online gambling site on the real equipment and the player may receive the video record of the course of this game. Roulette had get to be the first online game as it is effortlessly broadcasted online and any number of players can parlay on one table because there’s no need to make any decisions.
The stakes are placed on a virtual table and after that the real spin is made; all gamblers receive one final number and payments corresponding to their bets. Through the way, if there are a number of gamblers in one casino it becomes unprofitable and impossible for the latter to swindle and that increases the attractiveness of game. Soon baccarat had become online too: the player won’t make any decisions in the course of game as well as the cards dealing is made on a standard pattern. But in the event that of another popular game – blackjack had appeared some difficulties. Many players cannot simultaneously play at one table because they opt to take or not to take the card and these decisions may be different so the dealer can’t simultaneously execute them. This is why online blackjack, and real, is played by one dealer against just a few players simultaneously. As a result this game usually has quite high bets.
At the present time, there are many of online casinos offering three abovementioned games (for instance, such games are usually offered in casinos with Playtech software), but at the moment there’s no video poker, although there is talk on its promotion. There is an idea to propose players to use their web-cams: each player will film himself during game and transmit the results to a server which will distribute this data among other players. As a result you can see the opponent’s face through the game and that can add new options, specifically for players’ psychology experts. Keep in mind, these proposals are not realized these days but when they will be realized the Internet-poker will become quite much like offline poker.
Another latest thing that’s used in gambling is 3D graphics. Some years ago Intercasino had announced the creation of new version of software – “the first 3D casino”, although, in fact there were a few static 3D portraits of players. Since that time quite many casinos and some poker-rooms had produced so-called 3D software; usually there were completely static, pre-rendered pictures of individuals and table which had little in common with “real 3D”. Still, in general, tridimensionality in casino is not very interesting – 3D table or perhaps a dealer will not be a revolution, though 3D effect of poker had become quite revolutionary. PKR had get to be the first real 3D poker-room: it had been opened just on each year ago and during this short-term it had become among-the leaders on visiting statistics (more than 5000 players at a time, although many of them play for love), even despite of absence of Americans and option of one table game.
PKR offers the option to look at the table from different views and also to pick the unique appearance of player, and this will be the case: there are a number of types of faces, hair styles, hair colors, clothes, footwear and accessories, so it really is almost not possible to meet two similar players not just at one table but in most room. Appearance and standard clothes are possible to acquire cost-free, although expensive suit or accessories are to be purchased for points (which are collected conveniently and quickly), as well as the player can digitize his own face in order that his poker avatar is his perfect copy! The players don’t sit still – they really move dibs, look at cards (your cards are not shown all the time, it’s necessary to press the special button and the player can look at them), express emotions (some standard emotions – from pleasure up to teasing), to play tricks with dibs (a few tricks are cost-free and other are to be purchased for points), pronounce their actions and it’s possible to pick the player’s accent. On the whole, all players agree, that PKR is most realistic of all computer rooms. Unfortunately, you’ll have to pay for all that beauty: firstly, the game runs a little bit slower than in other rooms, secondly, you can play only at one table, thirdly, the game is resource-hungry and also on slow PC it runs slower. And finally this game is recommended only to owners of unlimited Internet access (and also online casinos, however), because it requires quite a lot of traffic. Only its installation requires more than 600 Mb, and during the game the room eats away nearly 10 Mb every hour.
Nobody knows the future result of gambling and technology mix; maybe in certain tens of years the effect of presence will be reached, however now we can play the real roulette by means of video broadcast and 3D graphics makes a computer game nearly real. We’ll wait for new interesting decisions which can make the game even more convenient and pleasant.
