How to Actually Make Money with Online Casino Games

If you’ve ever played casino games online, then you certainly know that they are all about luck.
Except for poker, you won’t be able to use your skills to play any of them with more success.
This effectively means you can’t score consistent wins playing online casino games.
However, that doesn’t imply that the games are rigged in any way — it just means that, when luck is involved, there’s no telling what the outcome will be.
Despite all that, there are still methods you can implement in your casino gambling experience if you want to make more money from these games. So, let’s take a look at what you need to learn if you want to earn more significant profits while having fun.
Always Learn How to Play the Game
Most 1 dollar casino games are easy to play (especially video slots), but that doesn’t mean you should avoid learning the basics before you begin. In other words — you have to study the game carefully if you want to make money from it.
With slots, you can’t just jump headfirst into any new game. You need to read up on the RTP, the volatility, and what the game has to offer first to ensure it’s worth playing. Then, try it for free to see all of that in practice. Only after you’ve played it for a while and read up on the rules and features should you start playing it with real money.
The same goes for table games, even the live dealer ones. You can’t just play a live dealer game without doing some research first, as that’s a sure-fire way to lose your money.
Don’t Get Distracted By the Dealer
Speaking of live dealer games, there’s another piece of advice we can give you here. If you want to play these games, you should never get distracted by how attractive the dealers are or what they are doing. This can easily lead to you not thinking clearly when playing, thus investing more money than you wanted.
Human dealers are trained to exploit your weaknesses, and no matter how innocent they pretend to be, you should not get distracted by them. Play your game, and don’t pay too much attention to them.
Use the Bonus Offers and Other Promotions
As long as you’ve read the terms to see whether they are favourable, you should definitely use bonuses to your advantage.
This is especially true with no deposit offers, match bonuses, and free spins. You rarely have anything to lose here, as you probably would have used the same amount of money on gambling anyway. However, this way, you’ll use it not only to gamble but also to gain additional bonus funds or free spins.
Before you claim any offer, make sure to read what the wagering requirements and limits are, as these are the most important bonus terms you need to know. Don’t claim bonuses that allow you to win only small amounts and never claim offers with massive wagering requirements, i.e. anything above 40 times.
Never Invest More Than You’re Willing to Lose
With all forms of gambling, you must have a specific budget in advance. That way, you’ll always invest only the money you’re willing to lose.
However, you have to learn how to control yourself as well. Don’t rush for the credit card if you’ve lost it all. It’s much better to give up than to go about chasing your losses, as that’s precisely when you start losing more money than you should. Remain calm and allow yourself to think clearly. After all, you can always come back another day.
Don’t Look for Patterns — These are Luck-Based Games
Always remember that casino games are based on luck, which means that they are entirely random. As long as they come from respectable software providers and use Random Number Generators (RNGs), there’s no point in looking for patterns on how they work.
Therefore, even if it might look like the occurrences are orchestrated, you need to remember that they are not. Sometimes it might seem like they are, but this is just your mind playing tricks on you, trying to find some patterns, as it does with anything in life.
The Bottom Line
Making money with online casino games is not easy, but it’s certainly possible. You only need to rely on your brain, not your heart, and use the advice you’ve found in this short guide. If you go down that road, you’re bound to win more than you have in the past.

Bruce Smith Enterprise and The Cordish Companies Break Ground on New Live! Casino & Hotel in Petersburg, Virginia

Bruce Smith Enterprise and The Cordish Companies celebrated the groundbreaking of the new LIVE! CASINO & HOTEL VIRGINIA in Petersburg. The milestone officially commences construction on a transformative project that will generate billions of dollars in economic benefits and spinoff development, create thousands of new jobs, and set a new standard for gaming, hotels, and entertainment in the Commonwealth. Live! Casino & Hotel Virginia is part of a larger $1.4 billion master plan by the partnership, scheduled to be developed in phases, that will bring a world-class mixed-use resort destination to Petersburg.
Executives from Bruce Smith Enterprise, The Cordish Companies, and Cordish Gaming were joined by Petersburg City Mayor Sam Parham and members of Petersburg City Council, Virginia State Senator Lashrecse Aird, Virginia State Delegate Kim Taylor, and many other business and community leaders at the project site in Petersburg. The development site, ideally located on Brasfield Parkway at the intersection of Wagner Road and Interstate I-95 just 20 miles south of Richmond, will provide easy access on and off the East Coast’s major north-south interstate.
“It has been a source of immense satisfaction and pride to partner in this incredible development. For far too long people have simply driven by the City of Petersburg, but today marks the beginning of a new era in which Petersburg will become a prime destination. This pivotal project will ignite tourism, create jobs, and ultimately deliver on the promise of greater opportunity and upward mobility for local families. As a champion of Petersburg and its residents, I am happily confident that this historic development will uplift, empower, and enrich this community for years to come,” said Bruce Smith, founder of Bruce Smith Enterprise.
Live! Casino & Hotel Virginia is slated to open in 2027. A temporary gaming facility will open by the end of 2025 to immediately begin creating an estimated 500 new jobs, vendor opportunities and economic benefits for the City. In its first 10 years, the project is expected to generate $2.8 billion in economic stimulus to the region; $504 million in tax revenues including $240 million to the City of Petersburg; $802 million in economic benefits during construction; $201 million in annual economic benefits each year after opening; and 7500 new jobs including 6100 during construction and 1400 new permanent jobs.
“Today marks a monumental day for The Cordish Companies as we expand our Live! brand into the Central Virginia region with the development of Live! Casino & Hotel Virginia. Our company is a national leader in successfully developing and managing large-scale urban revitalization projects across the country. Live! Casino & Hotel will be a transformative development that will bring a world-class gaming and entertainment experience to millions of visitors, create significant new jobs, and generate millions of dollars in economic benefits for the community that will provide a beneficial impact for generations. We look forward to making an immediate impact on the region with the construction of a temporary gaming facility that will be operational before the end of 2025, so that we can begin creating jobs, vendor opportunities and economic benefits for the City,” said Zed Smith, Chief Operating Officer for The Cordish Companies.
