UK Betting Statistics Rise
In Britain, online gambling continues to grow at a rapid
pace – and it seems more so with the women than anyone else.
According to a sample conducted in December, approximately
30-40% of online casino players in Great Britain are women.
This is a very interesting statistic, considering that only 5%
of land-based gamblers are of the female persuasion.
Currently, the U.K. accounts for 80% of all European online
gamblers, which many are expecting to rise in the near future,
now that England is allowing online casino gambling to become
legal in the fairest sense of the phrase.
And with internet access becoming more available to the
mainstream, you can be assured that online gambling will
continue to remain popular with England. Broadband
connectivity has seen large improvements in days of late, now
letting more people go online and go online with faster
speeds. It seems absurd – but the faster bettors can make a
bet, the more betting they will do.
The question remaining is just how responsible are these
gamblers going to be? Considering that the largest age
demographic gambling in online casinos is the 18-29 year olds,
things could potentially get ugly. However, as open as the
British government has been in the past with gambling in
general, it seems unlikely that all twenty-something’s will be
going on online casino binges to learn the hard way.
