Starting
Out
So you're new
to online casinos? Well, get ready to have some fun.
Online casinos treat all their players like they are high
rollers. You'll get free chips to gamble. You'll
earn points toward valuable gifts and prizes. Plus,
the odds at an online casino are much better than those offered
at a land based casino.
Gambling at an
online casino can be just exciting as a trip to Vegas, but
like Vegas, you need to know the basics before sitting down
at the table.
First and foremost,
you need to pick a reputable casino. 99.99% of all online
casinos are legit, but there are a few fly-by-night operations
that you'll want to stay away from.
That being said,
it is pretty easy to seperate the creme of the crop.
At Casino Stalker, we put online casinos through a rigorous
test before featuring them on our site. But aside from
gambling at the casinos listed on our site, here are a few
things to look for when shopping for an online casino.
* Support
- This is a biggie in our Casino Stalker test. Test
the casino's toll
free number. Do they answer?
If not, leave a message and see how quickly
they get back with you. Write them
an e-mail. How quickly do they respond.
This is important. When you gamble
things will come up, and you'll want to
talk with the casino. You'll want
to know before hand just how willing they
are to help their players.
* Banking
- This isn't as important as it used to be, but you'll find
that a credit
card isn't enough when gambling at an online
casino. Credit cards don't want
their card holders playing at casinos because
th industry is still so new. Instead,
you'll have to use a third party and make
deposits (and withdrawals) through
them. Pay Pal used to work, but they
are no longer an option. Instead, you'll
have to work with someone like Neteller.
It can be a headache, but Neteller is
safe and some casinos will give you an added
bonus for using Neteller as your
banking option.
* Bonus
Offers - Finally,
everyone's favorite subject -- free chips. Every online
casino will offer you something to give
them a try. Expect to get anywhere from
$10 - $400 for free but be careful.
You have to gamble that bonus "X" amount of
times before you can cash out.
As stated above,
almost every casino on the net is reliable. The bad
apples are very few and far between. So, in the end,
do your homework -- but remember -- have fun. And win
a hand for me |
