Online casinos and slots are growing in popularity due to social isolation
If the online gaming and betting industry was consolidating its expansion before the arrival of COVID-19, social isolation has finished pushing online casinos as the prevailing leisure trend. Without risks, without moving from home and with a range of possibilities, both fans and new users always find a new proposal to tempt luck.
The main operators take advantage of this increase in demand to launch new and seductive promotions such as good casino bonuses and free spins without a deposit, which are the best way to start entering the world of Internet gambling houses and successfully attract thousands of new users every day.
Advantages of online casinos and free spins
Firstly, it is a legal gaming option that can be played from home, using the computer or mobile applications.
But also, thanks to the free runs, it is possible to get the most out of the money invested without additional costs. Basically, the user increases the profits by reducing the risk since, with the same money, he or she has a better chance of winning.
As if that wasn’t enough, there are additional rewards that can come along with these free spins, for which you need to have a good search criteria and choose the best online casino offer or promotion.
To take into account
All users, especially new ones, should be aware that there may be some ambiguity in some sports betting bonuses, as they are not always free spins without a deposit. You should also be aware that the time frames for these promotions are often short and therefore you may not always be able to take full advantage. Finally, it is sometimes necessary to make a very high profit or to bet a large amount to withdraw what has been achieved with the free spins.
So how do you know which option is reliable? There are online comparators that select the best current online casino promotions and gather them so that new users can get informed about each one in detail.
This kind of sites gather the best online casinos at the moment, based on the promotion they announce and on the users’ rating. It makes a selection in which it informs the free-spins, which are the requirements to obtain them, in which game they can be used, how the bonus package is composed and the average rating of the sports betting according to its users. This information is essential for responsible and reliable gambling.
However, it is always necessary to read the “small print” of each online casino and make sure that it has the certifications approved by the General Directorate of Gaming, which are usually found at the bottom of the websites.
How to get free spins and win with them
There are some tips and tricks to get free spins at major online casinos. Free spins have a higher probability of winning if certain guidelines are followed.
The first thing to do is to check in detail the promotion section of the portal and read the conditions in detail. Then, you can access the trial mode of the promoted slot machine, to check if you like it and if you understand the operation. It is likely that by accessing the test mode, the casino will inform the specific promotion for that game.
Another tip is to frequently visit online casino comparators, which we talked about earlier, to be aware of the latest updates.
It is also recommended to subscribe to the newsletter or alert system of our favorite online casino to find out about free spins promotions as soon as possible.
Which online casino should we choose?
Once the above recommendations have been followed, the user may have to decide between the three or four online casinos that seem to fit his expectations or launch the most tempting bonuses.
The suggestion is to choose carefully and trust the most important names. It is almost always the most prominent gaming houses that offer the best conditions for free-spins, such as 888casino, Betfair Casino, Bet365 Casino, William Hill Casino, etc.
It is also important to verify the trajectory and the quantity and quality of users and ratings, as well as read some reviews about the casino in which we will trust our leisure and money. But as we play for fun, it is also very useful to use the “test mode” of the slot machine to use it and know if it is to our liking before making the first deposit.
No matter how tempting the offer is, the premise of playing responsibly should not be forgotten.

The Mirage Hotel & Casino to Begin Transformation into Hard Rock Las Vegas on July 17, 2024
Hard Rock International (HRI) announced its plans to cease operations of The Mirage Hotel & Casino as of July 17, 2024, to begin the transformation of the property into the highly anticipated Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and Guitar Hotel Las Vegas (HRHCLV).
Hard Rock will develop a new integrated resort featuring a nearly 700 ft. guitar-shaped hotel towering prominently in the center of the famous Las Vegas Strip.
“We’d like to thank the Las Vegas community and team members for warmly welcoming Hard Rock after enjoying 34 years at The Mirage. We’d also like to thank the Unions, community leaders, local and state government organizations and the Gaming Commission for their support and fair negotiations over the past year. Also, we are grateful to MGM for assisting with our transition,” Jim Allen, Chairman of Hard Rock International, said.
“While we pause for the incredible transformation of this iconic property, I’d like to thank all team members at The Mirage for their incredible commitment and helping us provide memorable experiences for our guests. We are planning to host collaborative hiring events with other employers in the Las Vegas community over the coming months. Connecting the thousands of talented Mirage team members who provide outstanding service with new employment opportunities is a top priority,” Joe Lupo, President of The Mirage, said.
HRHCLV is expected to double the current number of jobs at The Mirage for the Las Vegas community, while the renovation of the property will generate over 2500 construction jobs. Hard Rock will pay approximately $80 million in severance packages for eligible union and non-union employees remaining with the property through cessation of operations.
