Do I have to download casino software?

Many of the online casinos now offer you both an option to play without download as well as with a software download. Most of the time it's better to download the casino software as it will almost always offer you better graphics and game play. Below are details of the different types of software available for gambling online.

Flash Online Casinos:
A flash based online casino means that you can play without a download and via a web browser as long as you're connected to the internet at all times. These generally offer the best graphics (apart from downloaded software) and are generally quite fast and carry great sounds and effects.

Java Online Casinos:
Java based casinos are a bit old school. Although now outdated, they were pretty popular many years ago before Flash technology came in. You won't find too many of these now as they don't offer the best in graphics or playability.

HTML Online Casinos:
Slotland Online Casino is one of the few remaining HTML based casinos, infact no others come to mind. These are pretty simple in terms of technology so just expect fast game play but limited game play.

Live Dealers:
This is where you can actually play with a real-live dealer through your webcam. You will be able to see the dealer shuffle the cards chat with a real person. It's great for the type of people who prefer to play at a real land based casino since you really get the feel of being there without the trouble of leaving your seat, plus there is no need to download a software.

No Download Online Poker Rooms:
Pokerroom.com is a great software which is available in both downloadable as well as no download software's. They offer a solution I recommend over other online poker rooms.
