Computers and also the Internet probably will be the most fast-growing field of technology, so, in the nature of things, the casinos and poker-rooms attempt to ride the ground-swell and use new technologies that became available recently wherever it's possible.

The very first online casinos happen to be made in simple HTML, but since the advent of Java language and with spread of flash technology online casinos started to use these technologies. In the course of time, offline casinos have improved graphics and sound as well as have added new games. Advent of professional online gambling casinos had become the first considerate achievement in online gambling as well as development of broadband access. In these casinos one plays not against computer dealer but against real dealerships playing on the real equipment and also the player may receive the video record of the course of this game. Roulette had become the first online game as it is conveniently broadcasted online and any number of players can parlay on one table because there is no need to make any decisions.

The stakes are placed on a virtual table and from then on the real spin is made; all gamblers receive one final number and payments corresponding to their bets. By the way, if there are many of gamblers in one casino it becomes unprofitable and almost not possible for the latter to swindle and that increases the attractiveness of game. Soon baccarat had become online too: the player isn't going to make any decisions in the course of game and the cards dealing is made on a standard pattern. But in case of another popular game - blackjack had appeared some difficulties. Many players can't simultaneously play at one table given that they elect to take or not to take the card and these decisions could be different so the dealer cannot simultaneously execute them. That's why online blackjack, as well as real, is played by one dealer against only a few players simultaneously. As a result this game usually has quite high bets.

Currently, there are plenty of online casinos offering three abovementioned games (for instance, such games are usually offered in casinos with Playtech software), but at the present time there is no video poker, although there is talk on its promotion. There is an idea to propose players to use their web-cams: each player will film himself during game and transmit your data to a server that could distribute this data among other players. As a result for various see the opponent's face during the game and that will add new options, especially for players' psychology experts. Simply, these proposals are not realized these days but when they will be realized the Internet-poker will become quite similar to offline poker.

Another latest thing which is utilized in gambling is 3D graphics. Some years ago Intercasino had announced the creation of new version of software - "the first 3D casino", although, in fact there were a couple of static 3D portraits of players. Since that time quite many casinos and some poker-rooms had produced so-called 3D software; usually there have been completely static, pre-rendered pictures of men and women and table which had little in common with "real 3D". Still, normally, tridimensionality in casino isn't very interesting - 3D table and even a dealer will not be a revolution, although 3D effect of poker had become quite revolutionary. PKR had become the first real 3D poker-room: it had been opened just on a year ago and during this short-run it had become among the leaders on visiting statistics (more than 5000 players at a time, although many of them play for love), even despite of absence of Americans and option of one table game.

Nobody knows the future result of gambling and technology mix; maybe in some tens of years the effect of presence will be reached, however now we can play the real roulette by means of video broadcast and 3D graphics makes a video game nearly real. We'll wait for new interesting decisions that may make the game even more convenient and pleasant.
