The latest online casino industry results indicate that 2010 was mobile gambling’s best year yet. And 2011 is expected to push the numbers through the roof, thanks to the proliferation of smartphones and 3G as standard handset hardware in most developed countries.

Gambling on iPhones, BlackBerry devices and Android handsets at one of the top internet casinos showed an increase of a massive 650% across casino and sportsbetting wagers during the first half of 2010.

Another large online casino reported equally encouraging results, expanding their mobile userbase by 150% and growing their mobile gambling revenue by more than 200%. This generated an additional £6.5 million in revenue for the casino and just goes to prove that mobile gamblers have just as much clout as their desk-bound counterparts.

If you’d like to try your hand at mobile gambling (in the garden, or the bath, or while cooking even) then have a look at what Jackpot City Mobile Casino has to offer. They have a great welcome bonus on offer, so you’ll be able to try the new technology with the casino’s money instead of just yours. Remember though, don’t gamble and drive!

This is not the first time that Mansion Casino has associated itself with major sports teams. In 2006, the online casino sponsored Tottenham for four years for a whopping £34 million. What makes this deal a little different though is the exposure for Man City in the Asian market, which is something the football club is very keen on achieving, according to their Chief Brand and Commercial Officer, Ian Cafferky. “Manchester City has huge ambitions and an ever growing international fan base, which makes Asia a key market for the club. Renowned for its love of football, Asia has enormous potential for the future and we are delighted to increase our brand presence in the region,” he said.

When asked whether Manchester City was excited to be associated with the internet casino, Cafferky had high praise for Mansion, saying, “Mansion Group is one of the fastest growing and innovative companies within the gaming industry. Having them on board as our new partner is an exciting prospect and marks a new commercial chapter for the club.”

As far as Mansion Group’s CEO Guy Gussarsky is concerned, they couldn’t be happier with the collaboration. “With football being a global game, we are looking forward to working together with Manchester City and helping both the club and English Premier League fans worldwide to better enjoy their experience, using a number of new and exciting initiatives, and in keeping with the market-leading values that are at the heart of both of our organisations,” he said.

The Mega Moolah slot game is richly illustrated and a is colourful game with the distinct feel of an exotic safari in Africa. The animals depicted include beautiful elephants, handsome zebras, elegant giraffes, the royal lion and of course the well-loved monkeys. It has a fun feel to it which many will adore, the sound effects further add to the game and we are sure this will remain a firm favourite with many online players. The animal characters give winning combinations and at the same time the player is able to use wild and scatter symbols to gain an advantage here.

Mega Moolah is operated by the Fortune Lounge Group and is offered to you by Royal Vegas which is based in Malta.

This game should keep you happy playing for hours and perhaps, who knows, you could become that new online millionaire.

The virtual environment removes a lot of the psychological aspects of having all your moves watched by other players, but also allows players to bully more by playing recklessly. This means that in online poker, you should be even more aware of the likelihood that your opponents are bluffing and/or bullying you and you need to learn how to spot when this occurs, even in the virtual environment. You should also be extra cautious when bluffing, and assume that your opponents are well aware of how Internet poker works. Don’t be careless when bluffing just because the game is online other players are aware of this and it’s likely that they will be just as able to call your bluff, or even more so, than at a real poker table. Try not to get into regular playing habits as this will also be picked up by the other players Of course, a well-timed bluff can be seriously lucrative, but don’t over-do it! The more you bluff, the more likely that your opponents will be able to spot it and call you on it.

If you have a good hand, of course you can turn this back on your opponents, one of the oldest tricks in the book. Be aware though, that other players may well be trying the same trick on you. One other important consideration when playing online is that your opponents may not pay as close attention in a virtual game as they would in a real gaming environment. You should adapt your bluffing strategy accordingly.

Take all these factors into account, take good care when bluffing, look out for your opponents doing the same and with a bit of luck, it`ll all pay off at the end of the game!
