The quintessential picture of an online gambler is usually one of a person in a dapper suit with a cigarette in one hand and a martini in the other. Oh yeah, and he’s a dude. Many people think gambling is a man’s game, that women are only interested in nickel slots and lottery tickets. But, with the recent boom of online gambling, that stereotypical view seems to be changing.
 
Online casinos have opened up the gambling market to virtually all kinds of players, and now there are more women than ever getting involved. They’re no longer sitting at the slot machines waiting for their boyfriends to go broke; they pulling up a chair to poker table, throwing the dice and spinning the wheel.
 
Many online casinos are taking note of this trend, catering to a more feminine audience. So, if you’re wondering why you see less and less bikini-clad vixen plastered across the home page, this is why. A lot of online casinos are either taking on themes that are more girly, with soft colours, or going for a more neutral feel.
 
In fact, the number of women competing in the WSOP has steadily increased over the past few years. Online poker is the reason that so many younger players have become WSOP competitors, because it offers them a safe place to practice and the same theory can be applied to female players. Leo Margets, a female player from Barcelona made it to the top 27 of the WSOP this year, so watch out, you guys, female gamblers are fierce!
