Yep. Well what can you say. I like em.
There are plenty of other good ones also:inetbet,intercasino as few examples.
I wouldnt recommend microgaming for blackjack play, but anyone makes his own mind. I like their ideopoker though.

True enough, though in a regulated environment that would get your casino shut down. Hardly worth it. Casino Webcam is based in Costa Rica, not to be confused with anything remotely resembling a regulated environment. That said, I can't recall any serious complaints about them.

My experience has been quite positive with them. Withdrawal times are about 4 days , so thats quite high compared to some that pay within day.
But besides that , its a good place to play.

BTW it would be a heck of a lot easier to just drop a 10 or two from a deck in some little studio than to rig your software and keep that fact hidden. In fact short decks still can occur in fully regulated jurisdictions.

Its a "live" casino, where you can actually seen and hear the dealers..
So if you loose you cant blame it on the software ...
Atleast you could try this place if you have a fast internet connection.
I dont think its too good place if you have modem...
Also you could try inetbet, they pay fast, and the software should be fair . I dont think cherry is that good, but i guess you could try it too...

It depends if you like Microgaming software, but if you do 32Red are fast payers and provide pretty much the best support. They have just been named 'best casino 2003' actually by casinomeister.com. They also have 1-deck BJ (like most microgaming), but as I say it comes down to whether you like the MG software or not.
I personally have been having a great time with BJ at William Hill on their no-download java boss ersion. I've barely dropped lower than my purchase recently, and on two occasions when I did I threw caution to the wind with a £45 and £44 bet... on both occasions I got BJ Since Xmas I have cashed in around £300 profit here which considering I am usually a small bets player is pretty good going.
Ben.

I'm new to the world of online gambling and am looking for a little guidance. I'll be sticking to Blackjack, and all I want to find is an honest casino that will play fair and pay out when I'm ready to walk.
I've searched and read these fora and seem to get conflicting opinions on just about every casino out there. Right now, I'm considering either Intercasino, Omni, or Lucky Nugget. I liked the look of Casino Tropez, but the reviews on here seem to suggest that they're not the best option.
Any advice on which casino to start at? Any particular things to look for?
Thanks a lot!
