Celendo’s Casino Blog

People have called me Celendo as far back as I can remember and I guess even some of my good friends will now be surprised to find out my first name is actually Logan. But here’s the funny thing! They may not know a basic detail like my first name but I’m sure each and every one of them will tell you, without a second of doubt, that I love gambling! Apparently, it’s true, we are what we love! And look at me, writing a welcome post to my first own casino-inspired blog!

cards talkMy passion towards gambling was born when online casinos were just about to become popular but there was still a lot of haziness along the whole process, where to play, how to safely deposit or withdrawal. This was the most amazing time of my life even though I had not enough experience to enjoy the games the way a do now. The more I learned, the more hooked I got. Adding extra money to my monthly budget, learning to wisely manage my bankroll and to know when to stop or go for that risky thrill, were all very important lessons which helped me grow and become the person I am today.

So, to keep it short and simple as I plan to do with my future posts as well, a few years later, I am glad to welcome you to my personal and most favourite place – Calendo’s Casino Blog – a home where I hope to share with my gambling enthusiast family the gathered experience when it comes to playing the best games, finding the perfect bonus or just random talks about the latest online casino trends.

Online Gambling – 3 Steps to Get Started

Getting dressed up and going to a fancy casino is no longer the only option if you want to play some roulette, blackjack, slots or any other odds game there is. Betting from the comfort of your own home is actually the much more preferred choice nowadays. If you have never given it a try, you have landed on the right spot! Here are the 3 most important things to consider when making your first steps.

Find the Right Online Casino

man-coffee-cup-penThe one thing to keep in mind when researching is that there are plenty of operators trying to compete for your attention. Their home pages look tempting with loads of free cash, welcome bonus offers, loyalty programs and hundreds of ongoing promotions. Spending that extra time on researching the market is a must as most free gifts come with a set of playthrough requirements! If you do it correctly, you could enter your first betting game with a doubled first deposit, extra free spins or some other advantageous treats. However, a generous bonus would mean absolutely nothing if you are playing at a shady online casino. So, if you’re ever in doubt of the trustworthiness of any operator, check its status in the License Register of the UK Gambling Commission.

Now you Need a Game to Play

dartsThe easiest option to start off with is definitely slots. They have simple rules, attractive visuals, and the theme diversity is so wide, I am sure anyone could find an instant favourite. Meanwhile, the effort is brought down to a minimum. Chose the preferred bet and spin the reels, that’s all! However, if you ask for my ultimate game for starting up, I would go for blackjack. We all know the not-going-over-21 rule which allows a lot of strategic thinking. As opposed to other games where you count on odds and chance, all blackjack variations give you that feeling of being a bit more in control.

Practice Makes Perfect

beMost online games have a free demo version and what could be more fun than this? Not risking your own money allows you to not worry about losing a penny, to explore the game in detail, see the rules and features in action, try different strategies, test your intuition and most importantly learn how to manage your bankroll wisely. And let’s be honest, you may not even like the game after trying it out, especially in the beginning where you don’t have much experience. Switching to a different one, in this case, would have cost you nothing. Therefore, my final advice is to never overrate your skills when it comes to playing a new game, if there is a free demo, use it!
So, this completes my 3-step beginner’s combo! I hope you have found it helpful and you’ll be back soon for more useful tips and tricks!
