How gambling is perceived in different countries
Each country has its own unique culture and traditions, which determine the perception of all aspects of life. The attitude towards gambling, which has become firmly established in our daily lives, is no exception. Gambling has its own unique appearance in different regions of the world.
Gambling in the USA, Australia and Great Britain
Statistics show that slot machines are the most popular in the United States. Slots are a mandatory attribute of all American casinos. The United States is followed by Australia and the United Kingdom in terms of the prevalence of assault rifles. In these countries, slots are often called "fruit machines" due to their fruit theme. “One-armed bandits” are also very popular in Norway. The craze for this gambling pastime led to the fact that in 2009 a law was passed limiting the location of slot machines.
Gambling in Asia
In the countries of Southeast Asia, on the contrary, slot machines are not at all popular. Even in Macau, the gambling capital of Asia, no one shows much interest in slots. Here, baccarat rules the roost, bringing the casino the greatest profit. Second place is shared by traditional sic bo (a type of dice) and fan tan (where you need to guess random numbers).
Japan and gambling
In Japan, a country with the most distinctive culture, there is a separate type of slot machines - pachinko. The rules of pachinko are very similar to American pinball. Instead of coins, steel balls are used here. The player must guide the ball into the winning pockets using a special device. With its brightness and exciting gameplay, pachinko has gained popularity not only in Japan, but also in Australia, New Zealand and the USA.
Gambling West
Residents of Western Europe remain faithful to traditions. Roulette is more popular here than anywhere else, or more precisely, European roulette with one zero. Its strongest position is compared to other games in Germany and Austria. Slot machines are also very popular in the Old World, where, according to statistics, Europeans leave the most money.
If we talk about a game on a global scale, then this is, of course, poker. Over the past decade, it has gained worldwide popularity. For example, in Russia, about 90% of all players play poker in all its forms. One of the reasons for such popularity was the holding of tournaments online. Also, thanks to their wide coverage on television by various media, the game acquired unprecedented entertainment, and the ranks of poker fans grew significantly, even despite the restrictions imposed in the country.
