Casino Scrutiny Guide to the Best Online Casinos & Gaming News
The overall purpose of this page is to bring you the most
relevant online gambling news - at least what's most relevant in my
eyes. Being that I am an online gambling webmaster and spend the
majority of my time cruising the Web and reading up on the latest
betting news, promotions and such forth, I dare say I am qualified
to know what's most relevant. This page wouldn't be complete without
a recommendation of my top picks for the
best online casinos, which
I have personally had a first-hand experience playing at. As you can
see, not all of the online casinos in the navigation menu to the
right (some of which I do not recommend at all) are even listed
here. II have to admit that after writing and continuing to write
casino reviews and news articles, I strongly feel I have developed a
little body of useful information for anyone looking to gamble at
the best online casinos. If you're on the other side of the camp
(perhaps you work within the industry?), you may want to check out
the Casino News page. That's where I pretty much write about any and
everything related to casino news and gambling related events. Other
than that, don't expect too much more from me other than telling you
like it is. Bon apatite!
Best Online Casinos
Rushmore
Casino - One of the few online casinos to offer a Blackjack
Bonus, and incorporating some of the most impressive 3D graphics of
any casino gaming site, Rushmore has been the saving grace of Real
Time Gaming Software if you ask me. Although they do not offer live
chat, the Customer Service was very responsive and friendly.
Rushmore gets two thumbs up.
English
Harbour - While I had a good time playing at English Harbour, my
main reason for putting them on my "best" list is because of their
reputation. They were one of the first online casinos to go online
back in the late nineties and have never been at the heart of any
controversies or scandals all this time. Although I don't think the
lobby of their software is that impressive, they are a solid place
to play casino game tournaments, including freerolls.
Golden
Casino - The only reason I have to give Golden Casino a spot
here (well, not the only reason), is because they are one of the top
Vegas Technology casinos besides English Harbour in my opinion. They
offer one of the largest slots Sign-up Bonuses, and being that
they're apart of the Vegas Technology family, makes them a great
candidate for Vegas Technology fans who want to cross over from the
English Harbour family of online casinos.

Yet Another Reason Why an Online Casino Gambling Ban is Stupid
He didn't exactly use their words, but online gambling CEO, Joe
Saumarez-Smith, had some sharp words to say regarding the Unlawful
Internet Gambling Enforcement Act. If only U.S. legislators will use
the WTO ruling as an opportunity to overturn the irrational statutes
of the UIGEA.

Absolute Poker to be Audited Following Serious Cheating Allegations
Just when you thought it couldn't happen, the reality of getting
cheated at an otherwise reputable appearing and legitimate online
poker room slaps you in the face. Although the case still needs to
be investigated, if you ask me, things don't look good for Absolute
Poker.

International Pressure Could Help Legalize Online Casino Gambling in
U.S.
The U.S. basically laughed at Antigua and Barbuda's claim for
financial compensation under WTO provisions of free trade and
services. Now that other WTO countries and the European Union are
likely to get into a brawl with the U.S. - making claims of their
own - the U.S. will have to reconsider its stance or face some
serious economic repercussions.

Lottery and Horserace Carveouts to Help or Hinder Online Casino
Gamlbing?
Online lotteries and horserace betting are becoming increasingly
available to U.S. citizens, but what does this really mean for
online casino gambling? Ironically, a Canada based company has
signed a deal with the North Dakota Chippewas to host a global
online lottery and horserace pool, which will no doubt be promoted
to U.S. residents.

Betcha.com Online Betting Exchange Owners Surrender to Louisiana
After shutting down Betcha back in July, Washington State has been
sleeping with the increasingly annoying Louisiana Gambling
Commission to help extradite the Betcha Three, who apparently have
decided to turn themselves in and get it over with.
