			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The UK Bingo Industry is growing and growing fast. According to Google Search results report<br />
 in the last six months online bingo has become as popular as online  <a href ="http://DANOBRIENPOKER.COM/video-poker-poker-taking-a-new-level/progressive-jackpot-on-video-poker/">poker</a>  Could this be right?</p>
<p>Two factors have helped bingo reach the interest level as Poker. First<br />
 there are more adverts on the television for bingo than poker today. Second<br />
 because of the increase in bingo adverts<br />
 affiliate marketers are jumping on board and popping up affiliate run comparison sites which all in all<br />
 increased the noise around bingo.</p>
<p>So where is the UK Bingo industry heading today? Downhill if things dont change. This is a little wake up for the UK Bingo industry  perhaps a friendly warning. Its not light. Its not nice. But it is honest and we think someone needs to highlight these points.</p>
<p>Where to begin? Ah yes<br />
 the explosion of online bingo in the UK and the lack of creativity and innovation from online bingo operators.</p>
<p>With tons of bingo co uk sites competing for your attention today<br />
 youd think<br />
 as a bingo player<br />
 choosing a bingo community would be easier then simply comparing the free bingo bonuses or the confusing withdrawal rules?</p>
<p>If the goal of online bingo operators is to encourage more people to try online bingo<br />
 maybe they should be more sensitive to the fact that bingo players:</p>
<p>a) Are human | b) Dont like confusion? | c) And want to feel appreciated</p>
<p>These points are not necessary meant to single out any bingo operator<br />
 but theyre a general theme that haunts most of the bingo co UK websites today:</p>
<p>  Loose all the flashy<br />
 moving objects. Theyre distracting. Would you respond to all that noise? NO! Show a little tutorial on how to play bingo as a first time online player. You might think its easy<br />
 because its your community<br />
 but Im new to your online community and a friendly how-to map would show me that you care. Dont just give me bullet points why I should choose you<br />
 show me real proof. Whats better than actually seeing in real time whats happening on the community with latest winners<br />
 upcoming games<br />
 etc. Please<br />
 one clear join now button is enough. Dont insult me with 5 different flashy join now buttons. I dont like being yelled at. Do you? If you offer free bingo or a free trial<br />
 dont hide the small print and expect me to go look for it. If you have a small print then youre out to cheat me. Be upfront and save me the hassle.
<p>How about the promos?</p>
<p>It seems the bulk of online bingo communities offer more of the same: deposit ?10 and get ?10 pounds free. Same games: 90 ball bingo with similar prizes per game and odds. Same chat games and the same quirky TV Bingo adverts.</p>
<p>If Im a regular online bingo player and in search for a great online bingo site<br />
 what do the same offers as the other bingo community that I just visited tell me? Maybe the site is much like the other bingo community I played at? Whats different here?</p>
<p>It seems<br />
 big gambling companies have simply entered the bingo market not because they can truly offer something different<br />
 but rather theyve found a new channel to expand their bottom line. And with this saturation<br />
 more bingo sites are popping up simply to offer more of the same bonuses<br />
 compete against miniscule offers<br />
 all in all to make their shareholders happy.</p>
<p>But what about the bingo players?</p>
<p>  Have operators forgotten to create an entertainment experience that will delight players? Engage? Entice players to choose their online bingo site over their competitors?  Will there ever be a Apple or Google of online bingo? A bingo community that puts customer experience above all?
<p>Its disappointing that there are far few bingo operators today that have made the player experience a priority. This is evident from the poor site structure<br />
 website acce<br />
ssibility and site usability. Perhaps the obvious was forgotten: that real people would end up playing games online.</p>
<p>How to Improve?</p>
<p>Okay<br />
 best to stop pondering on the negative. Instead<br />
 lets look at areas where the operators can improve in order to help the UK bingo industry flourish and to successfully bring on more people to enjoy bingo online:</p>
<p>  Bring new excitement to online bingo by tapping into creative promotions that actually get players engaged. Each bingo community should have their unique differentiation point that helps their community stand out from the rest. This means<br />
 tap into creativity and actually offer new ways to engage players to try bingo online instead of the misleading free bonuses that cant t be withdrawn.
<p>Its clear<br />
 every new industry goes through a maturation cycle and Im optimist that UK online bingo will eventually reach theres soon. But for that to happen<br />
 everyone invested in the industry needs to their part that includes operators to players to the independent review sites like us at Bingo HQ.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Understanding Fruit Machines Casino Games             <br />Fruit machines are a special kind of casino slot game. New players often avoid wagering on fruit machines for a variety of reasons. Fruit machines contain a number of features not found in other slot casino games. Familiarity with these features comes only with experience and new players hesitate to try a game they cannot fully understand. Very few fruit machines are offered at online casinos and new fruit machines are rarely added. Players have plenty of options to choose from in the normal slot games and therefore they give fruit machines a wide berth. However<br />
 if players spend some time in understanding fruit machines they will be highly rewarded. New players need not worry about losing money because they can always play for free till such time they understand the game completely. Fruit machines replicate online the slot machines that were found in English pubs. This article explains to new players some of the common features found in fruit machines. One of the features is Nudge. Nudge is randomly displayed below the reels. By clicking on Nudge below a particular reel<br />
 that reel moves one position down. Depending on the symbols displayed on the reels the player can judiciously choose which Nudge button to activate so as to make a winning combination. Sometimes players are allowed to use more than one Nudge button in the same spin making it even easier to make a winning combination. Another interesting feature is Hold. Like the Nudge feature it randomly appears below the reels. In this feature players can select one or two reels which are kept fixed and the remaining reels are spun again. This gives players a greater chance of arriving at a winning combination.  The Cash Ladder is an integral part of fruit machines. Any win highlights the bottom step of the Cash Ladder. In order to climb up to the Cash Ladder players then have to play the Hi Lo gamble game. With each spin a number is displayed. In the Hi Lo gamble game the players spin again to reveal a new number. Before spinning<br />
 players have to guess whether the new number will be higher or lower than the existing one. If they guess correctly they move one step up on the Cash Ladder. If they guess incorrectly then they lose their wager. In the Cash Ladder players have three options. They can continue playing the Hi Lo gamble game till they lose or keep winning and reach the highest step for the jackpot prize. At any time on the cash ladder they can collect their winnings and start a fresh spin. Or they can exchange their winnings for the feature game that is displayed on the step at which they currently stand. Fruit machines employ a number of feature games on the Cash Ladder that are in consonance with the theme of the game. The highlight of fruit machines is the Feature Board. This is triggered by special symbols appearing on the reels. The Feature Board has squares along its perimeter in the same manner as the Monopoly board. When the player clicks the Start button a number is displayed and the player moves that many squares on the Feature Board. Each square on the Feature Board allows for one of the following actions. It can move the player up the Cash Ladder by a specified number of steps. It can add to or multiply the amount that the player is holding in the Cash Pot. It can activate one of the feature games after which the player automatically moves to the normal spins. In the worst case a square can terminate the players stay on the Feature Board. Because of the numerous features incorporated in them<br />
 fruit machines move away from the regular spins more often than the other slot games do. In this manner they alleviate the boredom that can be felt while playing the usual slot games. Related Articles &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Classic Fruit Machine Slots  Articles from Casino Advisor             </p>
<p>Auto Play in Microgaming Online Casino Games             <br />The auto play feature in online casino games allows<br />
players to automatically repeat the wager a number of times under identical conditions. The leading online gaming software provider Microgaming offers the auto play feature in more online casino games than other software providers. This article discusses the auto play feature in slots<br />
 roulette<br />
 video  <a href ="http://FREEONLINE-POKER.INFO/ventajas-del-poker-en-linea-sobre-el-poker-en-vivo/">poker</a> and blackjack games and the different implications that the feature has in each of these games categories. Online slots are ideal for auto play. The only decision that players make is the amount wagered. Since most players will play online slots with all the lines enabled the decision rests on selecting the line bet. This is often dictated by the players bankroll and players usually play the entire session without changing the line bet. Hence it is very convenient to put online slots on auto play. In Microgaming online slots auto play is available in the Expert Mode. 5x and 10x auto play can be directly activated without going into the auto play menu. The menu enables players to set the auto play up to 9999 spins. The auto play can be set to stop only after all spins are completed or if a win exceeds a specified amount. The auto play will automatically stop if any feature is activated in the slot game. In roulette the player also does not make any strategic decisions. He decides on the quantum of the bet. But in roulette there are a large number of bets to choose from. If the player wants to keep changing the type of bet or the numbers selected then he cannot use the auto play. However if the player is willing to keep fixed all betting parameters he can activate the auto play in the Expert Mode in the Microgaming roulette games. The player can select up to 9999 spins and also select the time between spins. He can set the auto play to stop on one of the three following conditions: when all spins are complete; when a win exceeds a preset amount and on any win. The player can enable two other conditions for the auto play to stop. These are if the credits increase or decrease by a preset amount. In video poker the players have to make a strategic decision of which cards to hold once the initial hand is dealt. On first evaluation this would appear to provide an impediment to the auto play feature. However<br />
 the video poker games in Microgaming have the optimal strategy built into them. Hence the software automatically chooses the best cards to hold and this allows for the auto play feature. The auto play feature in Microgaming video poker games is very complex. It contains all the features of the slots and roulette auto play and some more. The auto play can be set to stop when a jackpot is hit. Also Microgaming video poker games allow players to double the payout by playing a gamble game. The auto play can be programmed to activate the double all the time<br />
 never or under specified conditions. Some versions of Microgaming blackjack have the auto play feature. Blackjack involves even more complex decisions than video poker. Blackjack games that offer auto play have a built in strategy card that dictates the moves to be made by the player. This strategy card is not only available to the player but the player can alter the strategy according to his liking and the play blackjack on auto play with his chosen strategy. Functionally the auto play in Microgaming blackjack is identical to the auto play in Microgaming roulette games. Articles from Casino Advisor             </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Downloading Vegas Technology Software             <br />Vegas Technology software can be downloaded from the lobby of any Vegas Technology powered online casino. Clicking the download link should start the download process automatically. In some cases the player may be taken to the download page of the casino web site where the entire process is explained. The player can click the download link on this page if the process had not started earlier. Downloading and Installing Vegas Technology Software Video Tutorial:   Attention: In order to view our tutorial on how to download and install Vegas Technology software you&#8217;ll need to have the Adobe Flash player installed on your computer.    Get Flash Player &#8211; Click Here        var fo = new FlashObject(&#8220;template/v1/f/tutorials/vegas-technology-install-tutorial.swf&#8221;<br />

 &#8220;#000000&#8243;); fo.addParam(&#8220;quality&#8221;<br />
 &#8220;best&#8221;); fo.addParam(&#8220;allowfullscreen&#8221;<br />

 &#8220;false&#8221;); fo.write(&#8220;vegas-technology-install-tutorial&#8221;);    Set of Steps for Downloading and Installing Vegas Technology Software: Step #1 On clicking the download link a pop up box appears that gives the players three options. One is Cancel<br />
 which should be exercised if the player had not intended to download the software. The second option is Save. This option saves the installer on the player&#8217;s desk top and the installer then has to be clicked to initiate the installation process. The third and recommended option is Run. This directly runs the installation process from the web.  Step #2 By clicking the Run button the process is initiated. The pop up box displays the progress indicating how much has been completed and also the estimated time remaining for the process. Step #3 Once Step #2 is complete a security warning is displayed on the screen. The warning gives the name of the file and the name of the Publisher. The player is asked if he is sure that he wants to run the software. In case the player has any reservations he can abort the process by clicking on the Don&#8217;t Run button. Vegas Technology is a reputed online gaming software provider and the player should have no hesitation in continuing with the process. Hence he should click the Run button.  Step #4 This creates the Install Shield Wizard. The player is again given the option of canceling the download process. However he can proceed to the next step by clicking the Next button and in the next stage he should click the Install button. Once the installation is complete the software informs the player accordingly and prompts him to click on the Finish button in order to exit the Install Shield Wizard.  Step #5 Clicking the Finish button in Step #4 should directly load the online casino. In case this fails to happen then players can click on the casino icon that was installed on the desktop in Step #4 in order to load the casino software. The loading of the casino can take a few minutes depending on the speed of the player&#8217;s Internet connection.  Step #6 Once the casino has been loaded the player is asked to select whether he wants to play for fun or play for real money. The registration and account opening process depends on the choice made by the player. In both cases the player has to confirm acceptance of the casino terms and conditions. The player also has to confirm that he is over 21 years of age. Vegas Technology recommends the following minimum system requirements. The operating system should be Windows of at least version 98. The processor should be Pentium with at least 128 MB RAM. The screen resolution should be at least 800 x 600 pixels with minimum 256 colors. Articles from Casino Advisor             </p>
<p>Understanding Online Casino Dice Games             <br />Dice games are games of chance. The lure of dice games begins much before pl<br />
ayers are even aware of gambling. Games like Monopoly and Cluedo have pumped up generations of children. Therefore it is natural for players to have an affinity for online casino dice games. Online casinos offer two dice games. One is  <a href ="http://3-4roueslotbiniere.info/online-casino-winning/el-craps-online-un-gran-juego-para-comenzar/">craps</a> and the other is sic bo. Craps is the better known of the two games. Not only is it a standard fixture in land based casinos<br />
 but has been popularized in movies and on television. On the other hand sic bo is a game of Asian origin and therefore considered to be part of an alien culture. This makes craps the first choice online dice game for many new players. However new players soon realize that sic bo is a simpler game to understand. In sic bo players bet on either the combination of numbers appearing on the faces of the dice or the dice totals. What is more important is that each bet is settled in a single roll. At the end of every roll players have either won or lost their wager. Bets are not carried forward. On the other hand in craps the more commonly placed wagers are carried forward and settled over a number of rolls. Players have to come to terms with concepts like come out rolls<br />
 points<br />
 right bettors<br />
 wrong bettors<br />
 buying bets and laying bets. Therefore though sic bo is an alien game it is much simpler to figure out. However<br />
 new players must understand that it is neither the familiarity nor the simplicity that should be the factors that dictate where they should wager. If they go by these factors they are bound to lose money and lose quite heavily. The only criterion for wagering is the long term return that the bets provide. Bets that have high house edges provide lower long term returns and bets that have low house edges provide higher long term returns. Therefore new players must look at the house edges of the various bets offered in craps and sic bo.  There are two benchmarks that players can use as house edges. One is the house edges offered by blackjack and video poker games<br />
 which is around 0.5%. This is assuming best play<br />
 something that new players may not be capable of delivering. The second benchmark is the house edge offered by online slots games<br />
 which is about 5%. This does not require any strategy and is achievable by all players alike. Hence new players looking at online dice games should touch only those bets that offer a house edge of less than 5%. Unfortunately sic bo has only two such wagers. These are the Small and Big bets. The Small bet wins on totals of 4 to 10<br />
 except for triples. The Big bet wins on totals of 11 to 17<br />
 except for triples. Both bets pay even money and have a house edge of 2.78%. Hence players who are attracted to sic bo for whatever reason should stick only to these two wagers. Players who are looking at single roll wagers in craps have even less choice. The only bet that they can look at is the Field bet. This bet wins if the next number rolled is 2<br />
 3<br />
 4<br />
 9<br />
 10<br />
 11 or 12. This bet has a house edge of 2.7% but only under certain payout conditions. These are that one of 2 or 12 pays out at 2 to 1 and the other at 3 to 1. There are many multiple roll bets in craps that have house edges of less than 5%<br />
 but then new players have to be prepared to make an effort to understand the intricacies involved. Articles from Casino Advisor             </p>
<p>Neighbors of Zero Bet in Casino Roulette             <br />Usually the bets in roulette are extremely simple. The chip is placed on a set of numbers and depending on the number of numbers in the set the payout table determines the amount won. However French roulette introduced a number of unusual bets called &#8216;call bets&#8217; that are more complicated in nature. These bets involve a number of chips being wagered simultaneously at different places on the roulette layout. Some of these chips may cover single numbers<br />
 some may cover two numbers and some may cover even more numbers. Sometimes one chip is placed on a set of numbers and sometimes more than one chip is placed on a set of numbers. Therefore it is not immediately apparent as to what the payout will be. In fact the payout<br />
varies with the actual number called in the spin. Many new players who place wagers on call bets rarely bother about understanding them because the software does all the calculations. However prudent roulette players should be aware of the details. This article covers one of the most common call bets<br />
 the neighbors of zero.  The neighbors of zero bet does not follow the layout on the roulette table but follows a continuous sequence of numbers on the roulette wheel of which zero is at the center. The full sequence consisting of 17 numbers is 22<br />
 18<br />
 29<br />
 7<br />
 28<br />
 12<br />
 35<br />
 3<br />
 26<br />
 0<br />
 32<br />
 15<br />
 19<br />
 4<br />
 21<br />
 2 and 25. However the bets have to be placed on the layout. Therefore this sequence is broken into splits (2 numbers)<br />
 trios (three numbers) and corners (4 numbers) and nine chips of equal denomination are wagered. Two chips are placed on the 0<br />
 2<br />
 3 trio;  one each on the 4<br />
 7 split<br />
 the 12<br />
 15 split<br />
 the 18<br />
 21 split<br />
 the 19<br />
 22 split and the 32<br />
 35 split and two chips on the 25<br />
 26<br />
 28<br />
 29 corner. If each chip is $1<br />
 then the question that needs to be answered is what will the neighbors of zero bet of $9 payout? Splits payout 17 to 1<br />
 trios payout 11 to 1 and corners payout 8 to 1. Hence the payouts for all possibilities can be listed.<br />
If any of the 20 numbers not in the given sequence are called then the payout is zero and the player loses $9.   If any of 0<br />
 2 or 3 are called the player receives a payout of 11 to 1. Since his wager on the trio was $2<br />
 he will receive $22 and be returned his original wager of $2. He will lose the remaining $7 of his original wager. Hence his net win will be $15.   If any of 25<br />
 26<br />
 28 or 29 are called the player receives a payout of 8 to 1. Since his wager on the corner was $2<br />
 he will receive $16 and be returned his original wager of $2. He will lose the remaining $7 of his original wager. Hence his net win will be $9.   If any of the numbers from the five splits are called the player receives a payout of 17 to 1. Since his wager on each split was $1<br />
 he will receive $17 and be returned his original wager of $1 for that split and lose the remaining $8 of his original wager. Hence his net win will be $9.  Complicated as the neighbors of zero bet may seem<br />
 it has the same house edge as any other bet in this version of roulette. Therefore this bet is neither more favorable nor less favorable than any other bet<br />
 it is only different. The above explanations are based on a European wheel that has only a &#8217;0&#8242;. Articles from Casino Advisor             </p>
<p>Microgaming Online Casino Tournament Interface             <br />Online tournaments are a popular activity at Internet casinos. All online gaming software providers build in tournament structures into their software. However<br />
 online tournaments are inherently different from normal wagering at Internet casinos. The major factor in online tournaments is that the players performance is judged relative to the performances of other players. In normal wagering other players do not come into the equation at all. In normal wagering the player chooses his own bankroll<br />
 small or large<br />
 whereas in online tournaments the starting stack is fixed according to the rules of the tournament. Rebuy tournaments allow players to replenish their chip stacks for a fee. In normal wagering the player can wager for how long he wants whereas online tournaments usually stipulate a time frame for each player. These differences necessitate that different parameters are tracked by players in online tournaments and they require different information so as to be able to make the best decisions. Microgaming understands this very well and therefore provides a slightly different screen for their games during tournament play. The basic game functions as usual<br />
 only the additional information required is provided in a clear and concise manner. This article explains the more important of the features that are tracked during tournaments and that appear in the Microgaming tournament interface. This interface appears in three columns on the left-hand side of the<br />
bottom toolbar.     Win Box: The Win Box appears in the left-most column just below the alias of the player. The amount of coins that are won in the tournament by the player<br />
 which decide his position in the leader board is displayed here.             Coins: This is displayed just below the Win Box. The amount displayed here represents the chip balance available with the player for wagering. Once this is used the player will need to rebuy.             Play Time: The Play Time is displayed in the middle column just above the game statistics and options buttons. In online tournament each player is given a fixed time to wager. The Play Time indicates the amount of time left for the player to complete his participation in the online tournament. Once the play time reaches zero the tournament session will automatically close.  The right-most column shows three tabs each of which provides relevant information of the players position vis--vis other players.     My Place: My Place displays the players rank on the leader board with the players immediately above and below him. It also displays the amount won by him.             Top 5: Top 5 displays the rank<br />
 names and balances of the top five players in the tournament and gives the player and idea of how many more chips he needs to accumulate in order to figure in the top five.             Show in Window: The Show in Window link takes the player to the complete leader board in a different window. Since the number of players in an online tournament can run into several hundreds or even thousands the complete leader board is split into a number of pages that can be navigated using the arrows. The information displayed includes the players position<br />
 alias<br />
 coins and win box.             Where am I?: In case the player wants to locate his entry on the full leader board described above he can have to scroll through a large number of pages. In order to save him time Microgaming has incorporated a &#8220;Where am I?&#8221; link on the first page itself that will take the player directly to his entry.

<p>Understanding eCOGRA Audit Reports             <br />All online casinos get their games audited for fairness by reputed independent agencies. This is not only a requirement imposed by their licensing authority but also serves to demonstrate to their customers that they are operating a fair business. eCOGRA is one of the most commonly used agencies by online  <a href ="http://superpokerstuff.com/%c2%bfjugar-al-casino-en-linea-por-dinero-o-diversion/">casino</a> operators. Their reports are usually displayed in the public domain by the online casinos. Players who are just starting out at online gambling should take a look at these reports and understand what they imply. There are three sets of certificates that are given by eCOGRA. The first certificate is issued after to the initial audit. This certificate asserts that eCOGRA is satisfied that the games are fair<br />
 the casino operates honestly and behaves responsibly and monetary deposits are safe. The second set of certificates pertains to the Random Number Generator in the various online casino games. These certificates are issued separately for blackjack<br />
 roulette and video poker. The certificates pertain to a six month period. All the outcomes in all the games during the six month period are analyzed by eCOGRA for randomness based on standard statistical tests. The certificates state that the Random Number Generator guarantees that each card in blackjack and video poker and each number on the roulette wheel have an equal chance of being selected. The most important and useful a report is the Percentage Payout Review. This is conducted on a monthly basis by eCOGRA. The report displays average percentage payouts for various game categories. The report states &#8220;The figures reflect the percentage of total player unit winnings to the total unit amount wagered by the players in the month under review.&#8221; The data is presented for the following categories: all games<br />
 slot games<br />
 table games and poker games. The individual categories are the important ones and merit separate discussion. It needs to be first clarified that these figures are the actual average percentage payouts obtained during the month. They need not reflect the theoretical payouts of the games based on the mathematics involved on the configuration of the games. However<br />
 in games that do not require players to make decisions apart from the amount wagered the actual payouts and the theoretical payouts will not differ significantly. The average percentage payout for slot games at Platinum Play casino was found to be 95.60% in September 2009. This means that for every $100 wagered on slot games players were paid out $95.60 and the casinos retained $4.40. Given the nature of slot games<br />
 where no player decisions are required<br />
 players can expect this kind of return from slot games. The poker games referred to are the video poker games. The report indicates an average percentage payout of 99.51%. This needs further elaboration. Video poker games require strategic decisions from the players. Players who are able to make optimum decisions all the time will realize average percentage payouts that are more than the specified number. However players who are not good at video poker games may realize average percentage payouts that are significantly below the reported number. Hence new players should not blindly assume that they will be able to get the return of around 99.5% on video poker games. The table<br />
games are the most difficult to decipher. They usually include games like roulette and craps in which no strategic decisions are required. They also include games like blackjack in which players decisions play a major role in determining the average payout ratio. Hence it would be unwise to draw any conclusions about individual games from this report. As players continue to wager at an online casino they should make it a practice to check out the Percentage Payout Review and follow the trend. If nothing else it would give them satisfaction that they are wagering at an online casino that is fair to its customers. Articles from Casino Advisor             </p>
<p>Banking Online Casino Terms and Conditions             <br />While registering at any online casino new players are required to accept the end user agreement that contains the terms and conditions under which they are being allowed to participate in the casino. Some of these terms and conditions relate to the function of banking and transfer of funds to the online casino. New players should understand the impact of these terms and conditions before accepting the end user agreement. Some of the more important banking related conditions are explained in this article. When the player signs the end user agreement he accepts certain obligations imposed on him by the online casino that are known as his warranties. He has to confirm that he is the true and lawful owner of the funds that he is using for wagering at the online casino. This implies that he cannot use credit cards that are not issued to him. Nor can he use any other payment options that are not directly in his name. When a player funds and online casino account using a credit card the casino usually allows him to wager immediately but does not allow him to withdraw funds until the credit card issuer has confirmed the transaction. Sometimes the player countermands the instructions given to the credit card company and this puts the online casino in a difficulty. The player anyway cannot withdraw the funds but a whole lot of unnecessary transacting has taken place. Such countermanding of instructions or charging back is explicitly prohibited and the player has to undertake that he will not engage in this kind of behavior.  Should the player violate any of the terms of a wagering<br />
 where the related to banking or otherwise<br />
 this can have serious effects on the funds that he has with the online casino. If the player is deregistered or suspended<br />
 then the online casino can withhold the contested funds<br />
 whether they are deposits<br />
 refunds<br />
 bonuses or any other payments. The player specifically gives the online casino this permission when he signs the end user agreement. Should the player owe any funds to the online casino<br />
 the casino is authorized by the player to take the following actions. The online casino can circulate the details of the amount owed to intra-group databases that can be accessed by other online casinos. In the worst case they can also engage collection agencies for recovery of their debts.  A very important condition relates to dormant accounts. This is an area where many online players make errors. Players often register at online casinos<br />
 wager for some time and move off elsewhere planning to return to that casino at some other time. For this reason they do not withdraw the balance that is due to them from the online casino. Online casinos usually specify a period of six months in which the player should withdraw the money if he is not carrying out transactions at the casino. Once the period of six months expires than the money is forfeited and it belongs to the online casino. Most online casinos implement this condition extremely rigidly. There is a reason for this. They incur a cost in maintaining the account of a customer. If the customer wagers regularly then the cost of maintaining the account becomes a part of the normal operating expense. But if the account is dormant then the online casino incurs the expense but does not get any revenue. In order to compensate for this<br />
loss funds in dormant accounts are forfeited. Hence it is a sound policy to withdraw the funds when the player decides to stop wagering at an online casino<br />
 no matter for how short a period of time.  Reading the banking related terms and conditions is a one-time exercise and these conditions are usually available at the visitor&#8217;s website of the online casino. Therefore the player should first read and understand these conditions and only then start the registration process. Articles from Casino Advisor             </p>

<p>American Express NOT Available At Rome Casino             <br />Not So Fast&#8230;Well<br />
 there was one little problem. American Express isn&#8217;t accepted at any other gaming operator and Rome Casino basically announced that they were the only online casino that would take payments from the credit card giants. Word quickly spread<br />
 American Express got a hold of it and they were not happy. Not Accepted At Any Gaming OperatorChristine Elliott<br />
 Vice President of Corporate Affairs and Communications for American Express made it clear that American Express cards cannot be used for any type of gambling. Elliot also said that legal notification was sent to Rome<br />
 telling them that they are not allowed to accept American Express payments and that they have to remove the American Express logo from their casino website.If you visit Rome Casino however<br />
 you&#8217;ll see that the American Express logo is still listed on their payment methods page. Rome Casino hasn&#8217;t commented on the issue (yet) so it does make us wonder what is going on and how this issue will play itself out.Plenty Of Other Payment MethodsIn the meantime<br />
 Rome Casino remains our top rated casino that accepts U.S. players. There are plenty of payment options available<br />
 just don&#8217;t count on using American Express.</p>

<p>Indicted Billionaire Faces Online Gambling Debt             <br />Home Base of Casino OperatorsThe island state Antigua &#038; Barbuda has its own jurisdiction<br />
 and is the home base of many online gambling operators throughout the world. Some of our top-rated online casinos are based in this jurisdiction<br />
 take for example the two key players Casino Tropez and Euro Grand Casino. Billionaire Allen StanfordThe recently indicted billionaire Allen Stanford was well aware of the benefits of this small island state<br />
 and was keen enough to operate in the same jurisdiction. When in February 2009 the Securities and Exchange Commission charged Allen Stanford with &#8220;massive ongoing fraud&#8221;<br />
 the Antigua bank soon closed doors. Luckily for the online gambling community no one of the Antigua-based gambling operators had so much as a single dime placed at Stanford&#8217;s bank. The fraudulent business man had always claimed to be a Southern Baptist<br />
 and hence didn&#8217;t want any business with gambling operators whatsoever. Hypocrite with Gambling DebtsStrikingly enough<br />
 the Bellagio resort claims that the self-proclaimed Baptist signed for 14 separate gambling markers from January 15 to January 20<br />
 netting a total gambling debt of over $250<br />
000. The company now seeks to recover the outstanding debt together with a 18%-a-year interest rate. </p>
