Think of casinos, and what’s the first thing you think of? If you’re anything like most people, it’s probably the glitz, the glamour, the sights and the sounds of America’s entertainment capital, Las Vegas.

I bet this is what instantly came to your mind! (Me too!)

America has long held a fascination for Brits, particularly when it comes to the big jackpots and bright lights of Vegas. Yet gamers and gamblers in the United Kingdom no longer have to hop on a plane and fly thousands of miles to experience all the excitement on offer in the Nevada city. More and more British-based companies are offering plenty of opportunities to try online slots games for real money.

The advantages of this to non-US gamblers are as many and varied as there are options available, but here’s just a few of them.

Play with your own currency

By playing slots games online with a UK based company, you effectively eliminate all the complications and confusions that can arise from converting your British Pound Sterling into US Dollars to gamble on an American website.

Using your own currency, you know exactly how much you’re putting into each slot machine game in real terms, know how much your bet is worth to you, and how much the rewards are.

Play on your time zone

Engaging in our favourite game can be a fun little activity to do solo, though it’s sometimes nice to have other folks around us to share in the excitement and enjoyment of the game. Most online casino sites offer some form of chat function, making even a solitary endeavor like playing slots much more of a social activity.

Doing this with a UK site, you’re far more likely to have an opportunity to interact with people who share the same time zone, the same interests, and the lingo that you do, and there’s likely to be more of them around.

When it’s 1pm in the afternoon in England for example, it’s 5am in Las Vegas, so if that’s the time you go online to play, you’ll probably find that most of your fellow slot fans are tucked up in bed.

A huge variety of games

Any really good UK casino site will offer all the most popular slots in Las Vegas along with a number of homegrown creations that you just won’t find across the pond. From long-time classics known around the world to new games based on popular TV shows, films and even video games, you can at least be sure that you’ll never be bored when looking for something to play.

All the fun of Vegas without leaving your home

And here of course, is what it’s really all about, the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas right in your very living room, or wherever you happen to be. Most casino sites these days can be accessed on practically any device, including smartphones. That means that instead of taking long and expensive flights to where the excitement is, you can just go online and bring that excitement directly to you.
