			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In a recent press release <strong>Microgaming</strong> announced that it has enhanced its live dealer casino games. <a title="Casino Scotland" href="http://casinoscotland.com/">Casino Scotland</a> has seen the press release which states, “Microgaming is launching a state-of-the-art ‘Diamond Edition’ of its existing Live Dealer games, offering gamers a new and improved casino experience.<span id="more-84"></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Noble Casino is the new kid on the block and has so far proven incredibly popular in the online gambling community, especially now that they are offering an earth-shattering €4,000 Welcome Bonus to all new players. When it comes to software you&#8217;ve got the ever reliable Playtech ready to supply the goods, ensure Noble Casino players are kept excited with realistic sounds and professionally crafted animations.<span id="more-81"></span></p>
<p>Gamblers who choose to give Noble and go will have the choice between not only real-money games, but also a plethora of free play options too. All of these games are available in multiple languages, ensuring Noble Casino can expertly cater to the widest range of players.</p>
<p>The games themselves are a wonderful way to judge a casino, and Playtech&#8217;s lovingly crafted dazzling visuals and hypnotic lights are a perfect match for their awesomely fun gameplay with plenty of <a href="http://casinoscotland.com/casino-online-slots">online slots</a>, blackjack, and poker. Not only that, but this online casino software also has a really nifty live chat feature too, so you can discuss your wins and losses with fellow players.</p>
<p>No online casino would be complete without a VIP club, and Noble Casino is certainly not going to be an exception to that rule. First and foremost we have the ingeniously titled Comp points program, which according to Noble is the premier way for players to swap dollars for comp points. The specific &#8216;rates of exchange&#8217; will of course vary between games. If you thought that was awesome, VIP members can also swap their comp points for real cash should they wish, and this can be done by simply visiting the comps section within the casino cashier.</p>
<p>Of course its not all about the VIP members. All players at the delightful Noble Casino can fully expect to receive the highest treatment, including showers of exclusive bonuses, management support, vast arrays of promotional offers, and truly personalized service.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>When you look at the history of gambling you will find that while gambling games exited among the elite, the popularity of the games was much more among the working class. For centuries the working class folks have indulged in gambling games. If you are wondering a working class would want to gamble, well then the answer is simple, it’s because it their only chance to get by in life. Their life is all about small wages and big bills and it’s unlikely that such people are going to get a step up in life and end up in management positions with attractive salaries.<span id="more-76"></span></p>
<p>Plus after all the tiring and sometimes rather frustrating work, gambling gives the working class an opportunity for some fun and excitement. For many people <a href="http://casinoscotland.com/tag/gambling">gambling</a> is a method of escape from the daily routine, the stress of the work places and other monetary stresses. Gambling gives the working class crowd a chance to relax, have fun and be entertained. It offers them the opportunity to get away from all the stress without hurting themselves, unless of course they lose, but that is risk that every gambler is aware of. Gambling helps them keep their spirits high despite all the troubles they may be facing in life.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The king of thieves appears on a nifty slot game and he is all to give away all his precious loot to you and he’s doing it in 243 ways. The Robin Hood slot game from Microgaming is an exciting 5 reel slot game in the 243 ways to win format. Quite apt for a theme like this. Although the game is based on the legend of Robin hood, the characters in this slot game are all birds. But of course you can tell that the beautiful white swan is Maid Marion and the sharp looking bird with the feather in his hat is non other than Robin.<span id="more-74"></span></p>
<p>You have a Friar Tuck Bird, a Little John bird and a Sheriff of Nottingham bird too!  If you get three or more Wanted poster symbols you trigger 15 free spins during which your wins are doubled. The Robin Hood logo is a stacked wild and helps build winning combinations. Robin himself is an important symbol to look out for. If he appears on reels 1 and 5 simultaneously an Archery Bonus feature appears on a second screen. You have to use your archery skills to hit 9 targets each with a mystery multiplier. Play Robin Hood Slot game and other <a href="http://casinoscotland.com/casino-online-slots">casino online slots</a> at Microgaming’s most popular online casino, Roxy Palace and have a fun time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We have all heard stories about people becoming millionaires overnight when they win the lottery. But a really endearing story is that of Colin and Chris Weir. The two have been married for over 30 years and are pensioners now. They haven’t been working for a while because of health problems. But this <a href="http://casinoscotland.com">Scottish</a> couple shot to fame when they won a staggering GBP 161,653,000 in the EuroMillions lottery draw.<span id="more-69"></span></p>
<p>The win certainly took them by surprise, but becoming millionaires perhaps hasn’t sunk in yet. When interviewed, the couple didn’t talk about buying a new house or taking a holiday to an exotic destination. They just said they celebrated with a glass of wine like they do on Christmas. They were especially overjoyed because they could finally afford to give their two kids, age 24 and 22, their first driving lessons which were too expensive for them till now.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Motherwell are top of the SPL after a 3-0 win against Inverness CT. Okay so it’s only game 1 but I bet many sports betting fans made some good money on this result.  Goals from Hammell (25), Murphy (28) and Lasley (77) secured the massive win for Motherwell. The Scottish Premier League doesn’t often see teams like Motherwell at the top of the log.<span id="more-67"></span></p>
<p>Celtic are second thanks to a 2-0 away win against Hibs; Dundee Utd are third after drawing at home against Kilmarnock. Swanson scored in the 70th minute to get the draw after McKeown scored just after the break. Defending champions <a href="http://casinoscotland.com/casino-glasgow">Glasgow</a> Rangers could only draw at home against Hearts. Naismith equalized after Hearts opened the scoring through Obua. Ally McCoist, the pressure is on my son.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Gambling has been a part of human history for centuries. Gambling activities date as far back as 2000 BC in ancient China and India. Every civilization has shown records of some of gambling or the other. But despite the ancient history of gambling, land based casinos have been in existence for only less than 500 years. The first land based casinos are believed to have existed in Italy. They were gambling clubs that were came up around the 17th century. These were private clubs that were owned and organized by wealthy aristocratic Italians.<span id="more-62"></span></p>
<p>The places where the gamblers would meet were summer houses or villas and they were called ‘casa’. The word casino comes from casa. Soon regular folks also began to indulge in such gambling activities and casinos began to pop up all over Italy. Later gambling became illegal in Italy and was frowned upon. But land based casinos had become so popular by that time that they eventually became legal. In the US the first gambling houses were saloons. They were small dingy places and the first one was set up in 1882 on the border of Colorado and Utah. Brown’s saloon, as it was called, catered to miners who were working in the local mines. Many other saloons came up in trading cities like San Francisco, Chicago, St. Louis and New Orleans. Traders would meet up after work and gamble and drink together. In those years steam boats on the Mississippi River were also centers for gambling.</p>
<p>Nowadays the best land based casinos in world are not in <a href="http://casinoscotland.com/casino-glasgow">Glasgow</a> or anywhere else in Scotland&#8230; sorry&#8230; but in Vegas and Macau.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The online gambling industry is well aware of the fact that it is better to join forces to make a bigger impact than trying to achieve the unachievable all alone. The past couple of years have been filled with online gambling company mergers. You might have witnessed <a href="http://casinoscotland.com/">online casinos</a>, sportsbooks, poker rooms and other gambling business merge to form a bigger presence in the industry.<span id="more-60"></span></p>
<p>You might have even noticed that smaller companies that merge with larger companies simply vanish under the enormous presence of the bigger company. So why is the online gambling industry filled with mergers and acquisitions? Well this is the best way to build and develop a brand. By merging with companies these industry giants can provide the player with better products and services. They also bring in more business due to the reputation that they hold in the industry. Another main reason behind mergers and acquisitions is that the companies achieve greater heights together. You may even come across mergers between service provider and suppliers. There is no way that a merger can go wrong as this gives them a chance to venture into new territories. For example a company that has been into sportbooks can test waters with online casinos.</p>
<p>So you want to know what is new on the online casino merger scene? Well, there are talks going on about Ladbrokes approaching Playtech and they are also involved in talks with 888. There seems to be something going on between PartyGaming and bwin. Looks like the share holders have given the go ahead for the merger. Rose Nelson who is an expert in gaming law stated that like land-based casinos where mergers resulted in a few multi-nationals controlling 60% of Las Vegas, online casinos are also heading in the same direction.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are you interested in trying your luck in a hot environment with plenty of sun? Yeah? Then, join me at the Spanish town called Sort. Sort literally means luck, in Catalan. The news has widely reached every nook and corner of the world, even in <a href="http://casinoscotland.com/">Scotland</a>, and this lucky town has sold the highest number of lottery tickets. Hmmm… that’s interesting! As a lottery freak, it would be unfair if I don&#8217;t go and visit this Spanish town.<span id="more-57"></span>  </p>
<p>This little town is resting in the barrow of the Pyrenees. The town is well-known for the lottery draws and lucky wins. So, what is the hot news? El Gordo is the lucky draw that produced an unbelievable and for me uncountable amount of €15 million! My god! Who would not like a big win like that? One of the lucky winners had a big smile on his face, when he was asked to pose for a picture. He said, it wasn’t a surprise to him, as he knows that his lucky numbers would help him, and added that his lottery has turned as fortune-maker.</p>
<p>As I got tempted by his words, I have decided to go for my lucky numbers, and make great fortunes. And you know what El Gordo literally stands for? “The Fat One” and you will understand it by seeing the size of the lottery ticket. La Bruxia is the popular lucky shop that has sold out the lucky lottery tickets. So, if you are also planning to visit Sort, then do go to La Bruxia to get your lucky lotteries. And , La Bruxia means a ‘Golden Witch’. These people have inspirational and influential names. Though I am not that fluent in Spanish I hope I could manage with Hola, ¿Cómo está?, Buenos días. So, how about a winning party with a mug of beer and a beautiful sunny day in Spain?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>How many of us really think about the history of the casino game that we play? Well, a very few because we get engrossed by the game as soon as we start and from there it is all about winning. But there are other kinds of players, who derive pleasure in knowing more about their game of choice. It is for this reason that we find many casino related sites writing about the history of playing cards, especially games like blackjack, <a href="http://casinoscotland.com/casino-online-poker">poker</a> and baccarat.<span id="more-54"></span></p>
<p>Many historians state that card games must have originated in China as there are references made to card games as the game of choice for loyalty as early as the 9th century. The merchants, who travelled to China for trade, are the people who spread the games to India, Middle East and Egypt. In India playing cards were circular whereas it is in Egypt that the evolution of current day playing cards started in the 12th century.</p>
<p>In Egypt the decks that were used were known as Mamelike deck in honour of the regime of the Mamluk Sultans who were very fond of card games. If you are thinking of playing cards in Europe, then it has to be Spain, in 1371. Did you know that the first playing cards in Europe were made of wood with engravings? Four suits was a common game all over the world, but this game had different names and symbols according to where it was played. It was in the 15th century France, where the current suit of cards with Spades, Hearts, Diamonds and Clubs originated from. When the English accepted the French version of cards, it gained international recognition.</p>
<p>One very important innovation happened in the 18th century and it was the designing of reversible court cards. And finally America added its own contribution to card games and that would be the Joker, which happened in 1870.</p>
<p>So the next time you play a card game, you know that you are a part of an ancient history.</p>
