Types
-
The same types of games of chance can be found both online and in a casino. From slots to blackjack to craps and three-card poker, if it's a game you like to play, you will be able to find it in either the virtual or brick-and-mortar world.
Rules
-
The rules for the games are generally the same whether online or in a casino. There are slight variations to some games that differ within both the online world and the brick-and-mortar world, such as whether or not a dealer hits on soft 17 in blackjack. The rules differences tend to be minor, however.

Money Transfer
-
It is easier to bankroll an expedition to a real casino because you just need to round up some cash or withdraw from an ATM in the casino. To play online you will need to find a method to fund your account. Due to the murky laws regarding online casino play, it can be difficult to get money from a U.S. bank account or credit card onto a gambling site. Consult your preferred online casino to see what options may be available.
Speed of Play
-
You can get into a game and play as fast as you want in an online casino. There is no real dealer to rush you in making decisions. There is also no wait to get into the game of your choice (unless you want to play poker, a situation where a short wait is possible). Do note that with the odds always stacked slightly against you that the faster you play, the faster you are likely to lose, in general.
Warning
-
When it comes to gambling, the same warnings apply to both real and online casinos. Never gamble more than you can afford to lose. Set aside a bankroll for gambling purposes and only play with a small percentage of it each time you want to gamble, such as 5 to 10 percent per session.
