The world of gambling has come a long way since its early days. It is
unnecessary to describe today's gambling world, with land based casinos
hosting the best entertainment and most luxurious hotels, and online casinos
offering an equally terrific, virtual form of entertainment. But that is a
look at the present and future of gambling. A look back in time would take
us to a different place altogether. Long ago and far away.Casino dice games
have their origins based in Egypt. Archaeological evidence of dice games
have been excavated in Egypt, and date back 2600 years to 600 BC. Modern day
craps, at the core of many casinos and online casinos, are therefore
indebted to the ancient Egyptians. This history sheds new light on the Luxor
hotel and casino in Las Vegas, where dice games are popular and played by
gamblers who accept their presence with little or no afterthought. The Luxor
hotel casino, a stunning building designed like an ancient pyramid and
hosting the latest and most contemporary in hotel amenities in situated on
the Strip. A walk on the Strip - or more classy a limo ride - will lead you
from all the great casino hotels such as New York New York and Bally's, to
name a couple. Besides the Luxor Casino, the hotel also hosts the latest in
entertainment shows, including a full screen IMAX theatre. Dice games, too,
can be found at the Luxor.
