Casino Gambling in India is illegal, at least at first sight. But there are some ways to enjoy it in a legal way. To bet on results and to gamble with cards or at other games has been done around the word since forever. Some classic Indian games can now be played legally in India at lots of online casinos.
If you don’t want to gamble online you can go to cities where it is legal or you can go on cruise ships that go from Indian harbors. There are a few companies that offer offshore gambling, so you have a range of offers to choose from when going for a gambling holiday. There are also local regulations in Goa, Sikkim and Daman that allow gambling if a license is admitted.
Online casino, the world of gambling in your phone
The best way to get almost unlimited access to gambling games is to go online. There is almost no end to how many casinos there are that can be played from Indian IP-addresses. And the number of games such as slots, poker and live games are over 10,000 in total. If you don’t want to miss any new casinos keep an eye at Indian online casinos released regularly!
Teen Patti, a classical Indian game played throughout all South Asia
This is a game of cards that is a mix of English three card brag and poker. Teen patti has become a part of the festival of Diwali and is frequently played during that time. It can also be played as a social thing with good friends for fun. But if you want to play for money you need to go to the online casinos, ferries or abroad.
The game itself is quite straight forward, the best set of cards wins. But there are some side rules that make the game a lot more exciting than it might sound at first.
Andar Bahar the traditional game from Bangalore
This is a fast forward going game of 50/50 chance that is thought to have been around for a few hundreds of years now. A big part of the fun of this game is playing it with a real dealer and the other gamblers. Luckily, the game of andar bahar can be played in a lot of the live rooms at most of the big online casinos. If the pace is a bit too fast live for you there are also some RNG games where you can play it at your own pace.
RNG is Random Number Generator, that means that the cards are randomly generated and not handed out by a dealer and there are no other gamblers that are waiting for your call either.

Place bets on real Indian sports
If you don’t feel like playing card games maybe betting on some of the really big popular games in India might be the thing for you. There are betting sites that have great odds for kabaddi and cricket for example. Cricket is not only huge in India but has a solid fan base all around the world. Kabaddi on the other hand is not very well known outside of south Asia. But it is a sport that is slowly spreading and hopefully there will real international championships in a few years.
