Virtual Sport, the New Face of Gambling

 

Casino sites have been one of the main-stays of the web, almost since its inception. It is hard to surf for any length of time without seeing banner ads for Casino sites or sponsorships by bookmakers.

The traditional offerings from gambling sites have been virtual versions of the games that have been the big earners for the land based Casinos, plus online access to the bookmakers’ sportsbooks. There is however, no real need to take the approach of being limited to the games and sporting events that worked in offline Casinos and bookmakers, when you take the process online.

The missed opportunity in this approach is the chance to offer games that don’t rely on a real life chance event such as a winning horse or the turn of a card- but instead to offer games that lend themselves to being played in a browser- i.e. games that can be played using a random number generator. A by-product of making a game with a random number generator, unlike a sporting event, is that once it has been built and certified 100% fair- it is not touched again and players can feel reassured that the game is unbiased.

A new generation of gambling games is now emerging as the online gambling industry matures. The operators are seeing growing demand for more diverse games alongside the traditional ways to wager. This has helped innovation as sites are keen to differentiate themselves and we are at last seeing that there is not the same predictable line-up of sports, casino and games betting on every site.

If you know where to look, exciting things are on offer amongst the vast choice of internet gambling sites.

One example of the newer generation of gambling games is Virtual Sport Betting: based on the idea of virtual leagues mirroring the real life leagues from around the world. All the teams and players are updated monthly so the virtual game is as close as possible to the real thing.

F1x2Games is a software developer running the site football1x2(dot)com- they wrote the first version of their Virtual Football betting software in 2004, since then it has grown in popularity to the point where, across its entire network- around three million bets are placed on the game every month.

If you are a system player, this game is ideal to use various kinds of strategy, given the huge variety of odds on offer. The random number generator F1x2Games uses has been assessed by The University of Hertfordshire in the UK to be 100% fair. This means that unlike, say, a fruit machine in a bar, it has no preprogrammed payback rate. If you win big the game is just as likely to pay out again straight away.

The game features virtual versions of all the top leagues from around the world, with all the players and teams updated monthly. There are also now virtual versions of the World Cup, Euro 2008 and The Champions League. You’ll also never have to wait for the next game as virtual matches are played every 90 seconds, so there’s loads to bet on.

If you’d like to see how the Virtual Football games work, you can try them in ‘Play for fun’ mode, so you can check out the site for free.

Virtual War: Kosovo and Beyond


Virtual War: Kosovo and Beyond


$2.82


A brilliant analysis of the conflict in Kosovo and what it means for the future of warfare, by internationally renowned journalist and commentator Michael IgnatieffIn the vast tent city that sprang up in Macedonia to house Kosovar refugees, the most coveted commodity was not food or water but cell phones-a lifeline in the chaotic search for missing children, husbands, and parents. This was war at the of the twentieth century: from smart bombs to cell phones, technology ruled. For a decade, Michael Ignatieff has provided eyewitness accounts and penetrating analyses from the world’s battle zones. In Virtual War, he describes the latest phase in modern combat: war fought by remote control. In “real” war, nations are mobilized, soldiers fight and die, victories are won. In virtual war, however, there is often no formal declaration of hostilities, the combatants are strike pilots and computer programmers, the nation enlists as a TV audience, and instead of defeat and victory there is only an uncertain game. Kosovo was such a virtual war, a war in which U.S. and NATO forces did the fighting but only Kosovars and Serbs did the dying. Ignatieff examines the conflict through the eyes of key players-politicians, diplomats, and generals-and through the experience of the victims, the refugees and civilians who suffered. As unrest continues in the Balkans, East Timor, and other places around the world, Ignatieff raises the troubling possibility that virtual wars, so much easier to fight, could become the way superpowers impose their will in the century ahead.

Tigers of the Snow and Other Virtual Sherpas


Tigers of the Snow and Other Virtual Sherpas


$6.37


Sherpas are portrayed by Westerners as heroic mountain guides, or “tigers of the snow,” as Buddhist adepts, and as a people in touch with intimate ways of life that seem no longer available in the Western world. In this book, Vincanne Adams explores how attempts to characterize an “authentic” Sherpa are complicated by Western fascination with Sherpas and by the Sherpas’ desires to live up to Western portrayals of them. Noting that diplomatic aides at world summit meetings go by the name “Sherpa,” as do a van in the U.K. built for rough terrain and a software product from Silicon Valley, Adams examines the “authenticating” effects of this mobile signifier on a community of Himalayan Sherpas who live at the base of Mount Everest, Nepal, and its “deauthenticating” effects on anthropological representation.This book speaks not only to anthropologists concerned with ethnographic portrayals of Otherness but also to those working in cultural studies who are concerned with ethnographically grounded analyses of representations. Throughout Adams illustrates how one might undertake an ethnography of transnationally produced subjects by using the notion of “virtual” identities. In a manner informed by both Buddhism and shamanism, virtual Sherpas are always both real and distilled reflections of the desires that produce them.
