This is one of the ascent games that still an existence. I loved this game in those days, we used to play it in the fishing camps to pass time. most time we played it in the day time then when night we switched over to story telling and puzzle falk tales. We calls it "WATT" and that is the name written at the back of the paper.
Historically there are lot of games played in the olding days that are not played in this 21st century. This new generational children have forgotten most of the ascent games unless the child come from a family that loves ascent things. There was gamble we used to played in 90s. We Bet on 5 Cabin Biscuits that is one person would eat the 5 biscuits and another person to run or paddle a canoe across the river and come back again. And saying was that. "THE PERSON WHO WAS EATING BISCUITS WOULD NOT FINISHED IT BEFORE THE PERSON WHO IS RUNNING OR PADDLING WOULD RETURN". And really if the person could finished eaten the biscuits the other person has won so he would take the bet.

Indeed, there are lots of variation of card game aside from poker and blackjack, we have here a card game that used to be famous in our community, the tong-its and pusoy dos. These was the pass time of people in my neighborhood when they have nothing to do. A friendly game that can be played with money bet or a fun game among friends where the loser drink a glass of water, or got painted with soot.

It is very interesting and it is good, I like it when in other parts of the world they have card games and they are so interesting, where I live there are many things regarding cards, I think that in other threads they have been named, especially those games that It has to do with the Spanish deck, they are very popular and sometimes they accompany it by having a few beers, it is actually very good, I understand that the history of the games has many aspects, it could not be said where they are born from, or who invented, I just like the way they maintain traditions according to geographical areas.

The latest technology has a huge impact on the growth and changes in the world of gambling. We can now gamble freely whenever and wherever we want without anyone controlling or even noticing us. Most of us want to keep our gambling journey private so it will be convenient to use online casinos if that's our preference. The service is still the same and we can also play comfortably even with just the use of our mobile gadgets.

Online gambling services make it very easy for gamblers to bet anywhere without time restrictions, support the privacy factor because we can keep gambling secret to anyone without suspicion, but online gambling still has its drawbacks because we cannot enjoy the sensation of crowds such as physical gambling places, face to face with bettors, see hot girl and i really miss physical gambling.

Online gambling has many flaws. For example, the gambler does not need to go to the casino. Gambling is available to him 24/7. Many gamblers are just too lazy to go to the casino if it is located far away. Online gambling is even in your phone.

I don't think the things you stated is a flaw of online gambling. I believe those are the strength of online gambling reason why online gambling business is booming. Being accessed easily anytime and anywhere is an advantage to attract players. Aside from that due to different timezone, the 24/7 operation of online gambling gives them opportunity to cater and service anyone from the globe.

You're right, but that's not what I meant. Online gambling is available around the clock. That's why players spend a lot of time at online casinos. They don't need to go to a special place and gamble there. Players get used to playing at the casino and because of that they can't rest any other way.

Although we write here in the topic that online gambling is a continuation of the general history of gambling, but this is most likely not entirely true.

Online games have only existed for about 30 years, and this is a very small interval of time in the history of mankind. I would rather separate the history of the development of gambling from the history of games based on the technological and communication achievements of mankind. All the same, online gambling is a slightly different form of the game. And it often comes in human-computer form rather than human-human form. It is this last form that, in my opinion, is the development of gambling, and not online technological entertainment.

But all these are controversial issues, what do you think - is it worth dividing the history of gambling like that?

Well for me it is worth knowing everything, and as it has been presented in the thread it is as if they were writing a great book where each person makes a contribution, but it would be very good that due to each d'cada they did the most relevant thing, that including each event developed in the passing of that time, in order to attest that it is a totally complete story, of course, in these last 30 years it is easier to put a clear context on the story, the core of everything begins as we go further back in time, because only the experiences of those people who remember some events remain and that is more difficult to capture.

Gambling is old enough. The first proof of people gambling for something that had value was first done in china around 200 bc. This is mentoned on the book of songs, an old book thta refers to many things related to the chinese society back then. You can read more here:

The article is very interesting, however it is one of the most relevant data there is and as it stands, there are probably many more that we have not yet discovered, but surely if they have been given for those years, this is something that can be demonstrated. , the only thing is that it is more difficult to go further and further back in time and if it is done that way, I can not even imagine how much more game will have been developed before that date, and if we take into account that we are given by a time that was preceded by the Vatican who were the ones who actually put the rules of Year 1 BC and Year 1 AD, we would not know how to decipher what the true time really is.
