Hello again everyone! Today we will take a short look at the history of gambling! And in more recent matters, it is always good to remember that by opening an account at the best betting software with no fees you will make the most of your gambling life!
And the rest is history:
In historical records of paintings or annotations on walls, archaeologists say that the act of betting or simply playing with another person with the aim of winning something, with the chance of losing, is a very old activity and has been present in human history for a long time, and it is practically impossible to pinpoint exactly what year it originated.
During the beginning of the primitive era, with the appearance of games, people used arrows, stones, spears, sticks, and any other type of weapon to play. With arrows, probably the one who hit a certain target would win, and with stones, historical records suggest that the player who threw his stone the farthest would win the bet. In those days, people bet on food, animals, houses, and even weapons.
Years went by and with the arrival of technology, in Egypt the first objects appeared that are still part of bets today, the famous dice (3,000 BC). The first ones were made in different ways than the ones we know, some had a cubic rectangle shape with four sides of different length and rounded ends.
The first board games and the invention of cards
The Egyptians also invented board games, with the purpose of placing bets, and this spread quickly through the population there. In China during the XII-XIII century the much loved playing cards appeared, in the beginning they were made of small pieces of wood, completely handcrafted. With printing, which also appeared in China with the purpose of spreading Buddhist texts, the deck started to be mass produced and quickly the cards spread to the West.
The beginning of the scientific study of gambling
As the years went by, it is during the Renaissance period that risk is truly and scientifically studied, originating Probability Theory which is the basis of modern risk management that is used today by bookmakers and professional bettors.
Over the years the theory of probability was evolving until it ceased to be a whim of a bettor to become an essential tool for various activities developed today, from surveys to the choice of investment securities.
The technological development and the beginning of online gambling
As time went by and with the evolution since the origins of betting, specialized establishments appeared that made available to people the possibility to bet on anything they wished. Thus, the bookmakers were born. They became so popular that they eventually multiplied in several locations in different countries.
With the birth of the Internet, there was also a strong demand for activities to be developed digitally. This leads us to the origins of online betting and above all, to its dissemination. Today, online betting (sports betting, online roulette games, poker etc.) are a great success of popularity and market, bringing with it a very substantial slice of the popularity that sports have, and it is not difficult to know someone who has used some platform of this kind to make their games.
