I don't buy this argument that online casinos can replace the physical casinos. I have been to both, and the experience with them is completely different. Both of them have their own advantages and disadvantages. The biggest disadvantage with online casinos is that they can disappear suddenly without any warning. And when that happens, all of your deposits and winnings are gone. In case of physical casinos, at least you can follow up at their office. But for these online casinos, there is no such option. The website registration will be in some remote Caribbean island and even the address provided will be fake. Once they vanish, there is hardly any chance that you will be able to trace them.
online casinos can never replace physical casinos, but we cannot deny that technological developments are increasingly sophisticated and all types of gambling are summarized as one in this sophisticated technology and become online gambling sites that can be reached by anyone and from any country. and physical casinos will remain popular in countries where gambling is legal or permitted in those countries but in countries where gambling is prohibited it will be very unlikely to become popular. even though on the one hand many gamblers are in countries where gambling is prohibited, they can only go to gamble through online sites so they can still gamble without the state knowing about it.
so online casinos and physical casinos will still be popular in the foreseeable future, it's just that both will be popular in certain sections as I said before. so there's no difference between online casinos and brick and mortar casinos.
