Land-based slot machines Vs. online slot machines

Question: What is best? Online or land based slot machines?

A question like this depends of course on preference. But some universal truths can be established:

• It is easier to reach an online slot machine.
• More bonuses are offered with online slot machines.
• There is less exercise with online slot machines.
• You will not risk developing a painful “slot machine handle elbow” when playing online.
• There are more options online.
• You will get less fresh air if you play online but you will not have to pay for transport to the casino.
• Playing in a land based casino is more social.
• There are no free drinks or meals when playing online.

It is entirely up to you how much you want to let each of these truths weigh when you make your decision. But if you are playing slot machines for financial reasons only, your choice should be simple.
