Tag Archive: UK casinos

Throwing dice and trying to predict the outcome has been a gambling past-time for thousands of years. More recently, over the last few hundred years, various dice games have been invented or evolved from older games. Probably the best-known dice game today is the casino table game of craps. Though at first, it appears to be complex, it's actually easy to learn. Furthermore, it's also popular because it's a social game. Then we have games like Sic Bo, Klondike, Banka Francesca and Chuck-A-Luck.

Though the land-based casinos of the United Kingdom can't compare in size to those found in other gaming locations like Macau or Las Vegas, they are huge for the UK. In spite of being dwarfed by other major casinos around the globe, they offer a particularly English gambling experience. Of course, the games and rules all follow international standards, but the quintessentially Englishness, with all the mannerisms, aloofness and sophistication can make the gaming experience into something more.
