The history of casinos in Germany
Gambling has always appeared where was a lot of money in circulation. In Germany, back then, was good money circulation and in the Middle Ages dice already was very popular game: Germans were playing it everywhere, especially in restaurants. In the 14th century in Germany appeared playing cards and they spread like a wildfire. Ulm City has become a European center for the production of playing cards and cards already exported to many countries. And in the 16th century in Germany there were a lottery. In the Middle Ages there was a lot of attempts to separate gambling from other popular casino games.
In the early eighteenth century, gambling flourished in Germany. The first casino opened in Baden-Baden in 1765. His successor was the Kurhaus Casino in Baden-Baden, designed by architect Friedrich Vinbrennera, which began work in 1824. After the reunification of Germany in 1872 adopted a law on the closure of all German casinos. It was only after the government in 1933 legalized gambling, the casino in Baden-Baden reopened. As a result of defeat in the war, it was once again forced to stop their work in 1944, and resumed operations on April 1, 1950. Since then, the casino in Baden-Baden working successfully to this day and is in the top ten of the best casinos in the world by the Forbes magazine.
In the second half of the 20th century, casino and other forms of gambling in Germany is becoming more and more popular, in addition to the best casinos and slot machines gain popularity lottery and sports forecasts. Recently, however, many of the smaller casinos have financial problems, and each year more and more German casinos closing their doors. Now the big casinos have come up with something in particular, to attract visitors and stay in business. Some casinos organize international poker tournaments, while others organize regular events with popular international stars.
If you have a question about a computer mah-jongg or tile-matching program, though, don't ask me. Ask the publisher of your software. Ask by telephone, if possible.
If you call them, a very quick two-way communication will quickly get to the heart of your problem. On the other hand, if you email a tech support question, you need to provide information about your system and about your problem (you have to give them a lot of information up front in order to prevent the two-way communication turning into a three-week process, which is why telephone is better). It takes a lot longer to get tech support via email than via phone, and the email method requires you to work a lot harder. Telephone is best. Read FAQ 24 for more about mah-jongg game technical support.
