Because of the huge success that online casino poker has had in the past months has turned the game into a social phenomenon. The so called poker mania has taken over online casinos by storm.
The game of online casino poker has a very big attraction towards players, as millions of people already are playing it and thousands are joining with each passing day. The online gambling industry experts have not long ago, decided to investigate the trends that have led to the huge success of the online casino poker. The studies have revealed some interesting and unforeseen revelations regarding the demographics and the overall popularity of online casino poker.
With the help of a study conducted in the US we can see that 75% of all poker players play at least 3 times, while 39% play 5 times a month. We can also see that men and women play poker roughly the same amount of times a month. The study shows that 60% of men and 62% of women play poker up to four times a month.
Things were very fascinating once the numbers were analyzed. When trying to determine which poker site people prefer, the study shows that 45% of all poker players prefer to play at online poker sites, while another 45% prefer playing in person with their buddies.
The online casino sites are the answer to more than half of the questioned people which is quite staggering. There is also an amazing fact, which shows that the vast majority of women poker players prefer to play at online casino sites. And to be more accurate, only 1 of every 6 women didn’t prefer online casino poker to regular poker. Because of these findings, experts are now exploring the ratio of women versus men at the online casino.
Another study which was done with the hope of examining if the game of online casino poker is gender bias has lead to the finding that 53% of all online casino players are women. This figure has taken the online gambling community by surprise. This comes as another surprise, as poker has always been considered as a game dominated by men. The truth is that women have established themselves as a major force in online casino poker. The experts forecast that this trend will only get strengthen in the coming years since the number of women online casino players is only expected to grow.
