Many factors go into the decision of choosing where to gamble online and how one goes about finding just the right online casino. Which casino gets your gambling money is an important decision and should be made only after much study and consideration. After all, you don't want to waste your money do you? If you pop in a $20 deposit into an online casino you expect some sort of service don't you? I know I do. At the very least, a deposit of money to an online casino should have some sort of redeeming (entertainment) value. Your deposit to an online casino should involve an exchange. You are exchanging your money for a service of some kind that the online casino performs for you, no matter how exotic that service may be viewed.
So what's the trick to helping my gambling dollar go the extra mile and lasting a little bit longer? Although there have been days where I have enthusiastically deposited money into a casino, hoping to win it big. Until I applied these tips for choosing just the right online casinos what usually happened was I would happily deposit, bet too big for my britches and 3 minutes later having lost a whole months pay. These 10 tips are a must to consider before actually depositing a dime into an online casino. With these tips you will be better prepared to make a good decision on choosing just the right casino and making your dollar last longer thereby getting your money's worth.
10 Tips for Choosing just the right online Casino #10 - Check out what kind of awards the casino has won. There are two places online where you can gather such information; 1. Gambling.com and gamblingonlinemagazine.com or gom for short.
#9 - Does the casino that you are considering depositing at have any testimonials of satisfied customers. Well it doesn't' matter! Don't believe a testimonial on a website. Of course they are going to butter up their image through testimonials. Also, visit the gambling forums at Ez-board to find out this kind of information. Next, you will want to know what kind of experiences people have encountered at your prospective casinos. Forums like Ez-board usually have a special posting area for members relate any problems that they may have had with online gambling experiences at the casinos. Forums are by far the best place to find out current information about a given casinos. At the forums you can read about other player's experiences and whether they have had positive, negative or neutral experiences with a casino. Once gathered, use this information to your advantage. It is wise to learn from the experiences of others. Get educated before you deposit a dime into the online casinos.
#8 - Find out how long the prospective casino has been online. This is a good indicator as to whether they will be worth frequenting. If the casino is still in business since 1997 then it is going to be easier to say they are doing something right. It is the very new casinos that you want to be leery about. Some casinos are born and they die, all in the same day, week or month. After having scammed enough money from their victims they make their escape, vanishing into cyber-space.
#7 - Check out the software that is being used at the casino you are considering. Ask yourself some questions like is the software the casino is using state of the art or is it just some bunk second hand garbage software made by a dungeon master in 1982 for the commodore VIC20? The software a casino uses determines whether your game play feels like the real deal or like you are playing Halo on dial-up. Software is what separates the good casinos from the just so-so casinos. Software is in at tip #7 but you'll enjoy your time spent at an online casino much more if the games are optimized so that a player doesn't have to wait forever for a game to download or that give hints of the blue screen of death, or freezing right in the middle of your million dollar spin. The Viper software in use at the majority of Microgaming casinos is decent provided it is coupled with good live support. As for myself, I measure the quality of casino software a lot of times by how good its keno game plays. Judging a casino's software by its cover is one thing but pay attention to the details. They could cost you a lot of money. The slowness of the dropping balls, the rate at which your page refreshes, all these should be considered when choosing just the right online casino. Also good software makes thing more enjoyable. Although Real Time Gaming software provides many unique slot games, their keno game absolutely stinks. In the old days of dial-up internet RTG keno was horrendous. Sometimes it took 1 minute for a single numbered keno ball to drop. If the games at the casino look good but employ a shady or slightly predictable random number generator, then it is better to look elsewhere to deposit. You want the odds in your favor, not the other way around.
#6 - Find out the progressive jackpots of the casinos you are considering. See if anybody has been winning recently and take note of which machines had been hitting. It is advised to find loose machines, but just because they were loose one day, doesn't mean that they will be loose the day you play. I had this experience once... At a particular online casino they had this new promotional thingy going on...it was a small section inside the casino, that showed the player which games or slots were supposedly 'hot', and which games or slots were 'cold.' I tried it and followed their suggestion. Let me tell you, it was totally back-ass-ward. The game that was supposedly hot was cold, and vice versa. Needless to say I never used their recommendations again.
#5 - Get to know the casino through their support staff of the prospective casino. Having good casino support is the tale tells sign of a good casino. Just like real onshore casinos in Vegas and elsewhere, good casinos have trustworthy, honest, and reliable support.
A good support team is courteous to their players. They answer their customer's questions thoroughly and goes that extra mile making sure the all important customer's needs are being taken care of. Good casinos cater to a customer's every need. Bad casinos have no such support. Dealing with casino support via live chat, telephone or email could get you more bonuses than you would ever expect. Contacting them in this way also shows their sincerity in keeping their business alive. I feel sometimes nowadays it is hard-pressed to find a casino support operator whose native tongue is English. I also find that if their pronunciation isn't too bad and if you weren't made to wait all day to receive a response to your query then you'd be able to grade that casino as one more likely to get your next deposit. Steer clear of online casinos that do not have live support.
#4 - Scope out the prospective casino's payout system. If you win, how will you be paid? How soon will you be paid? Find out their payout system before ever depositing a dime into any online casino. I am not saying to jump into a casino and make a deposit if it says payouts are instant. A lot of casinos advertise this. Phoenician casino and it's sister casinos claim to grant the depositor an instant cash payout like the onshore casinos, but just because someone says something, do you believe it? In a similar manner it doesn't necessarily qualify them for the position or title of ‘just the right casino.'
#3 - Scope out the comp system. You can make your gambling money go a lot further by putting in a little time to study who offers a good comp point system. Usually it is 1 point for every $10 spent. Once you find your casino of choice, stick with it and you will be rewarded for your loyalty. The comp points should add up, the quicker the better. Comp points have added many days of casino play to my online gambling sessions.
#2 - Checking the payout rate of the prospective casino. The payout rate of a casino helps you determine how fast you will lose your money. It is obvious, but needs repeating, look for casinos that offer higher payout rates. Do a comparison between casinos and their respective payout rates. Some casinos claim that their table games or slot machines have a payout rate of 97% or more. There are some claiming even higher percentages. Use this information accordingly. Steer clear of casinos that don't mention payout rates. There are multitudes of casinos that are waiting to take your money, but there are only a handful of casinos that are fair enough to let you actually risk your money (and potentially win theirs)!
#1 - Use EZ-board.com and use their search to find gambling forums. EZ-board is home of the best gambling forums on the net. You will see about 6-8 pages or more of forums dedicated to online gambling. At these forums you will find plenty of friendly experienced online gamblers ready to give you advice and offer their opinions that you can read. These forums are the best place to find out information on a lot of gambling topics including where to play. The forums are a good place to find out how to get bonuses on deposits you make and how to get free promotional money to gamble with online. These types of forums are my personal favorites for obtaining the latest information on online gambling. At the forums you can always find something that will make your gambling day. Gambling forums at Ez-board usually will have a lot of content overlap, but each has its own particular niche.
2012 is just around the corner! Choose just the right Casino and go win!
It is my hopes that these 10 tips will help you better avoid the rogues that lie in wait for you and your precious cargo (your cash). These outlaw rogues are there for one and only one reason, they do nothing except steal your money. In exchange for your money they offer you superficial hype to zap the money out of your pocket and into theirs. We want an enjoyable playing experience not a terrible gambling experience.
Be forewarned: With gambling, you take your chances. You are always at a greater risk to lose, than you are to win. The casinos weren't set up for players to win.
It goes without saying, that personal experience will also give you skills to choose just the right casino. With all these rogues, don't be discouraged, there is a real hope under all this gloomy ‘rogueness'. Yes, we still have hope! It is possible to win by gambling at an online casino.

There are real online casinos that pay out real cash money to real online gamblers. That is why online gambling is so exciting. There is always (although ever so slight) the possibility of winning. Can you imagine winning $243,550 or $1,600,909 (actual amounts won at online casinos this past year) in take home cash, just by pushing your mouse button and eating cereal in your underwear? It's possible!
