Yes, NF29 - the best bet in online BJ is that when the dealers' face up card is a 10 spot, the face down is also a 10. The second best bet is that IF the drawn card is NOT a 10 alue then the NEXT card will add to just the right amount to make it a 10 total (usually it's a 5,5 or 4,6/6/4). Thems got all kinds of "tricks".
I find it interesting that almost all the focus in this forum is on BJ. Rest assured that the onliners know that. Well, you probably know the rest of the story. Isn't it interesting that you rarely, if ever, see BJ listed as a game that does NOT count toward betting requirements when trying to satisfy the requirements for bonuslovers. I believe BJ is the BEST game to play when you want to see if the place is rigged. Be careful, it could be an expensive analysis.
BTW, I recommend NOT going after bonuses. I gotta admit that it's hard to believe that these crooks have just the right card to play for every situation, BUT, hell ain't making these beautiful, fu... | | Read Entire Entry |

As for me, I would quote:
RoxyPalace, Colosseum, KingNeptunes, all FortuneLounge.
I didn't make fortune with them, but they give you the bonuses they offer and pay quickly when you win.

Very interesting post. The bit about long term B&M punters is ery true. I went to a B&M last weekend for the first time since last year and played blackjack. WOW its amazing, the dealer actually busts when having a face card up!!! I couldnt believe it. This happened a number of times AMAZING.
I intend to write to the casino to let them know that since the online revolution, busting when showing a Ten alued upcard is considered to be almost impossible and that they need to review their game proceedures immediately

Used to isit this forum pretty regularly, but only stop in once in awhile now. For the most part, after years and years of trying out the online casinos, I've concluded that THERE IS something fishy going on with them. And I AIN"'T talking about losing all time (for the skeptic few around here). I'm talking about dropping like a lead balloon when you get far ahead or get sick and tired of whatching dealers NOT bust with 5 or 6 up cards ESPECIALLY if you upped your bet cosiderably or watching the 7 come up immediatley or ery soon after you've covered everything (like place bets and/or hardways) in craps, or etc. etc. etc. Time after time after time. WAY beyond the expected alue (probabliity) figure. That's what I'm talking about.
Tried my hand with sportsbetting and had some success, but sure enough I'd take my winnings and isit their casino (many online sportsbook also have tied in a casino these days) and nearly ALWAYS lost it all in the freakin casino. There's PLENTY of fishy stuff goi... | | Read Entire Entry |

I agree, 32 Red is quite cool, but I wholeheartedly believe in Riverbelle casino, now thats a classy and reliable online casino. It has MG software, so no dodgy Playtech stuff, and it also has great sign up offers as well as cool competitions where you can win a trip overseas.
It's under the Bellerock Gaming group, so you can be assured of the highest security. A relatively crap casino, I would say would be casino Fortune. What do you guys think?

I can't ouch for BoDog, although most RTGs are rogue and not worth taking a risk at. However, I can wholeheartedly recommend iNetBet based on years of playing. Highly reputable with quick payments, they're the stand out RTG casino.

Yes, there are many honest online casinos - but unfortunately, there are also enough sharks out there to keep newbies nervous, as they hear tales of woe.
As a rule, do stay away from RTG casinos, except for BoDog. Sure, there are a few others who aren't that bad, but why bother, just steer clear.
32Red is one of the top casios in the business, as are most Microgaming operations. Intercasino is solid, you won't have any problems with payouts, etc.
River Belle, English Harbour, VIP Casino, William Hill, All Slots, Lasseters, Aus Vegas - all reputable.
If you're new and get caught up in chasing big bonuses, this could also lead to trouble.
Good luck.

Donna, you are smart to go into the world of online gambling with both eyes open, and the best thing you've done is hook up with forums like this and Casinomeister's forum. I don't know what a kitty party is, but if you play any slots at all, nobody comes close to the quality of graphics and play that Microgaming software offers... and their ideo poker is just as nice. Don't make the mistake of looking for the best bonuses on the net, because you're simply falling into a trap that so many newbies fall for, and many of the dishonest and rogue casinos entice new players with outrageous sign-up bonuses, and that's how they stay in bu... | | Read Entire Entry |

It's a good market to hit. There are lots of people in the world who play nothing but slots, so the WR aren't any big deal to them other than having to place a certain number of bets. But it doesn't bother them as much as someone who prefers Blackjack, for example.
But also, starting with slots players gives you a chance to be their first experience with other games. The beautiful thing about online casinos is that they have always been ery good at 'graduating' the player.
By that, I mean that these people will play nothing but slots at a real casino, maybe eventually dabble in ideo poker, but not really anything else because they feel intimidated to try the table games, or maybe are afraid they will make a silly mistake and look stupid.

As usual, I agree with you, Bethug. Nothing bad can be said about Inetbet. They have proven themselves to be honest, reliable and efficient with ery fast payouts. I don't even bother playing anywhere else anymore.
Personally, I love the RTG software. They have the best ideopoker around and a huge ariety of other games. Fast and fun and a great place to start.
It is truly a shame that so many RTG casinos are rogues. But we know who they are....so guys, don't take it out on Inetbet. They are A++

Welcome to the forum, hikearns. The Casinomeister's list is a good one, there is another one at http://www.wizardofodds.com/casinos/blacklist.html and it also has links to a couple of others.

Hello, I deposit at Grand Hotel, Vegas Joker, Colloseum. They Send 100% Match Bonuses From Time to Time and i Have Never Had a Problem Cashing Out (Always Get My Money...Well That is When I Have Enough Sense to Cash Out??????????...Won a good Bit The Other Night...Didn't Take My Money...STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES...You Would Think I Would Have Learned Better By Now). Most of The Time The Playthrough on a Bonus is 5 Times which isn't Bad and on a Bonus you have to cash out the amount of you deposit plus twice your bonus. I Played at a few Other Microgaming Casinos from time to time and have Never Really had a Problem. I Can call These People on The Phone, They Are Always Nice and I get The Bonus Credited when I Speak to them... Hope This Helps

Really? You've had negative experiences with Geisha or Grand Aces or Inetbet? I feel them to be ok, plus a few others.
I have to say though that RTG surely has more rogues than anyone else.

There are lots of good Bingos.
There is a free one with cash prizes here: Free Bingo for Cash (yes, it is my site and maybe Max will slap my fingers with a ruler now)
The other Bingos on that page are also screened by me and have had no trouble at all.
In Casinos, I like the Sands and Omni, 3 Diamonds and 49er, and I agree with all the above mentioned ones too. I also like RTG like Geisha and Grand Aces. I periodically advertise special bonuses for my favorites in the bonus section here only.
There really are more good casinos and bingos than bad, it's just that people rarely post when they are happy. Something about human nature - we all ent when we are unhappy.
By the way, I have been ery happy with Casino Grand Bay. They have paid fast and without all kinds of messes - I haven't faxed anything back at all and made several withdrawals in a row easy as pie.

Microgaming is definately the best, you cant go wrong with them as they are really reliable. The best casinos in my opinion are the Bellerock casinos which consist of Riverbelle casino, Lucky Nugget, gaming club and a few more, which I cant think of off hand. The nice thing about them is that because they are protected by the "parent brand" they are reliable and you can feel safe with them. if you are looking for poker sites you should try Gaming club, they are ery cool, and they pay out quickly.
