The evolution of casino gambling in North America

Although casino gambling is relatively new to the world, basic gambling has been practiced in various forms at least since Biblical times. Ancient Roman soldiers were known to “cast lots” to see who was awarded the spoils of their conquests. In the wild west card games became the gambling activity of choice. Draw poker and five-card stud were the popular poker games in the early days prior to the introduction of casino gambling.

The riverboats of the Mississippi were among the first casino gambling establishments in North America. Poker and blackjack were the most prominent games of chance.

Slot machines first appeared in the 19th century. The original one-armed bandits were the only mechanical casino games. They debuted in casino gambling establishments at the Flamingo Hilton in Las Vegas and enjoyed instant success. Now, with the advent of internet gambling you can actually play free slots online right at your own computer!

In the U.S. casino gambling is legal in the state of Nevada and in Atlantic City, N.J. Casino games offered at these establishments include poker, baccarat, blackjack, roulette, keno, slots, etc. Certain Native American reserves have also introduced casino games as a revenue stream.
