A Brief Intro

The online casino game of blackjack or 21 is by far the most popular game at any gambling establishment, and has been made even more popular of late thanks to the film of the same name starring Kevin Spacey. Personally, I do not rate the film in terms of accuracy, but it certainly brought card counting and the theory of blackjack strategy into the general lime light.

I don't consider myself an expert on the topic of blackjack by any means; I'm just an avid fan of the game itself and can be found in my local casino or every week sat in my lucky seat at the blackjack table. I also partake regularly in online blackjack tournaments, and more recently blackjack at online casinos, and I will be writing in depth about my experiences here.

For a game where the basic premise is to hold a hand that is closer to 21 than the dealer, without actually going over 21, there is an awful lot of strategy involved whether you play at a casino or online. From choosing tables all the way to making insurance bets, there are many facets to the game that keep experienced players interested and less experienced punters throwing their money away to the casino or casino online.

There are 1000 and 1 sites on the Internet which go into various strategies on how to play blackjack, so I won't be going in to this much, but rather will write the odd post about my personal experiences of the game in various environments including the casino online and the traditional casino. I will also offer a few reviews on online casino gambling sites and some info on tournaments for those interested in testing their skills with the pros.

Before we get in to the nitty gritty, it might be a good idea to check out an online casino and take advantage of the free play casino bonus. After trawling the net for a day or two I've come up with what is in my opinion, the best online casino bonus offer out there - $1500 free at GoldenTigerCasino.com. It also happens to offer the best casino games online as well as be one of the least casino-like homepages I've ever seen, but being a fan of Tomb Raider and the sexy Lara Croft, I'm not complaining ;-)

There are plenty of casinos out there in Germany that you could visit to practice your Blackjack skills. They even offer what they call a gratis casino where you can play for free. But nothing beats sitting at home when it is snowing outside and playing at an online casino. You don't have to worry about the hastle of getting there and best of all, you don't have to fight off those rude people that push in when you are about to sit at a table. It's like you get the casino all to yourself!

My friend who lives is France said that he plays his blackjack at online casino sites as well. Although the French call their online casinos casino en ligne but he will occasionally play at the Spanish casinos en linea also. He said the connections over in France are good enough to cope with the download of the games. These days the games are looking better and better, but with that comes more images, sounds and movies so the download size increases. Another recommendation of mine is to play at the UK online casinos - they always offer great payouts. But I'm getting ahead of myself so without further ado ... welcome to my site!
