The Casino Scrutiny Blog of
Online Casino News
If you're not looking for casino gambling news, sorry to
disappoint you. This page contains nothing but news, news and more
news - in true Web log fashion. As you might have already read amongst the pages of Casino
Scrutiny, I am a gaming site webmaster with lots of time on my
hands. I basically spend a majority of this time reading up on the
latest betting news, investigating the gossip and getting the inside
scoop on anything and everything related to casinos and gambling. I
know that most people could care less if a casino gets a new CEO or
starts a new marketing campaign. That's why I'm going to do my best
(I repeat, do my best) to write about news that has more of
an impact on players. Betting legislation is definitely newsworthy
because that affects us all. So are tournament results, big jackpot
wins and upcoming promotions. You get the idea. If you start getting
bored, take a breather and hit up the slot machines. That should
wake you up. Disclaimer: Although I make an attempt to bring humor
to my news articles, I will not necessarily make you laugh, giggle
or smirk.

Kahnawake Gets Left Off UK Online Casino Whitelist;
Cries Injustice
Quit yer cryin' Kahnawake and suck it up. I don't blame the UK
Department of Culture Media and Sport for not allowing your online

slacking off lately and you continue to brush the Absolute Poker
cheating scandal under the rug.

Marketing at Virgin Online Casino not so Becoming of
True Virgin
I suppose you can't be a Virgin forever. Virgin Gaming's Virgin
Online Casino recently threw a promotion that reeked of losing one's
innocence. My word indeed! Instead of paying out a discontinued
progressive jackpot to the players who contributed to it, Virgin
used the money to throw a contest.

Arrests

Online Gambling Affiliates and Slots Alley Casino
Need a Spanking
Here's a big surprise. Some more affiliates of an online casino are
sending out spam. Here's another big surprise. The online casino has
done nothing about it. Or at least they wouldn't have if nobody
spoke up about it.

Online Casino Gambling Forum Publishes Press Release
The Online Players Union is calling all players, but if you ask me,
all players should think twice about taking the advice from somebody
on a forum. While I think the OPU means well for an unregulated
industry, there needs to be more transparency.

the iPhone
A new mobile casino game is available from the developers at UK

kind of way.
