The Casino Scrutiny Guide to Online Casino GamblingFeatured UK Online Casino: 32 Red
Casino So I thought it would be fun to own and operate a guide to online casino gambling, but I didn't want to run the same old "you can get a $200 bonus here type site". There are plenty of guides to casino bonuses already available on the internet, and some of them are very good at what they do, very comprehensive. What I'm hoping to do with this website is something a little different, something a little more personal. My Personal ExperiencesCasino Scrutiny is going to consist of nothing but my own journals and logs of my experiences playing at some online casinos. I've played poker for some time now, but I've never really done much online casino gambling, because I always had a problem with the odds being inevitably stacked in the casinos' favor. But that's how they make their living, and I'll admit to having spent some time playing Major Millions and some other online slot machine games. Online Casino ReviewsThat being said, I'm not entirely sure how much actual "casino reviewing" I'm going to be doing. I'll detail whether or not the customer service crews at these sites treated me right, and I'll go into whether or not I liked the software. But what I'm really hoping to do is capture the feeling I get playing at these casinos. What's it like to hit a royal flush playing video poker on the internet? What do the frustration levels feel like when playing blackjack for an hour and hitting a bad losing streak? How much play does it really take to clear the bonus requirements at these casinos? These are the kinds of questions I'd like to answer. So yes, these are online casino reviews, but they're not the kind of reviews you're possibly used to reading. They're not sales letters. Think of these as casino inspections, and think of me as being the guy who is scrutinizing the casinos to see what value can be found there, if any. I'll include the usual details that everyone has in their reviews, like the licensing and banking info, etc, but those details will always be secondary to my main content, which will consist of relating my experiences as an internet gambler. Why Gamble at an Online Casino Anyway?This is a good question, and I'm not sure I have an answer for it. I've been playing online poker now for at least 2 years, and I enjoy it. But now that I've gotten reasonably good at that, I'd like to see what it's like being on the side with the disadvantage now. And I think that like all gamblers, I want to beat the odds just once today. And maybe again tomorrow. Yeah, I know the odds are against me, and I also know they'll eventually catch up with me. Being a casino gambler is like being mortal; eventually the odds will catch up with you either way. It doesn't mean you want to give up easily or early because of the eventuality. So, in the pursuit of things bigger than myself, onward I travel down the gambling rabbit hole. And what better way to get things going than a strategic tip. Here you go... Strategy TipAn Introduction to Gambling Systems Gambling Systems. It sounds so systematic, doesn't it? If you are new to the world of gambling, you may have no idea what gambling systems even are, but I'm sure you have an inkling. Just talk it out. A gambling system is a systematic way of betting. Now, fill in the blanks with some specifics. Because gambling systems are general ways of betting, they do not just apply to any casino game. They apply to all of them. Unlike strategy, which is game specific, gambling systems are more like bankroll management tools that aim to cover losses and maximize profit. But before I go on a limb and start endorsing gambling systems, are they as effective as some people claim? Okay first of all, I'm just going to be frank and tell you that gambling systems are bogus, and can actually endanger you more than not using one. There, I said it. Although I have the impulse to just end the conversation right now so as to not give anybody any ideas to defy my advice for sake of doing so (is this a conversation? oh wait, yes, the voices in my head), I feel obligated to do some ranting on why gambling systems do not work. While most of them are just flat-out scams, the more dangerous systems are the one's that really do mean well, often getting endorsed by close friends or people who have simply gotten lucky with the system, but in the long run only end up causing more harm than good. If you've ever given your address out to a casino or player's club before, there's a good chance that you receive promotions and special offers in the mail every so often. There's also a good chance you get offers to buy so called "miraculous" betting system secrets guaranteeing that you will win 90% of your bets in the casino. Just take a look in any gambling magazine of Las Vegas brochure and you will likely see an offer for some amazing system so unbelievable, that there's a good chance it was uncovered in the tombs of Egypt. Mail order scams are a big business. One of the reasons they work is that the people behind the scams are really good at what they do. However, "what they do" isn't casino gambling. It's marketing. They know that if they write up a good pitch and mail out a bunch of flyers, they will get a certain percentage of buyers. Some charge a hefty price, while others may only charge a few dollars with a money-back guarantee. First of all, most people don't even bother trying to get their money back (that's why it's offered). Secondly, scams aren't going to give you your money back anyways! Seriously. Ask yourself, "If such a system is so amazing and guaranteed to win me tons of money at the casino", why is the person divulging their "secret" and selling it for money to begin with?" Surely, it has already made them rich...like they promise it will do for you. While these miracle gambling systems are are easier to spot out as being a scam, there are other gambling systems that are more ubiquitous - perhaps even used by a close friend of yours. These are the one's that can be more tempting. You don't have to purchase anything to make use of them, and by most accounts, they usually sound like they will work. One of the most popular of theses systems is the Martingale. There are others too. And guess what? I'm gonna talk about all of them. Not in this article though, 'cause my hand would fall off from all this typing. So, beginning with my next "tip", I will present to you Gambling Systems Part II - The Martingale. We'll call this one Gambling Systems Part I - an Introduction. Aren't I creative? Online Casino News ArchiveOctober '07 | November '07 | December '07 Worth Visiting:
