1: Get to
know the casino
A good online casino provides information about it's license,
who owns and manages the casino, what are the rules of the games, the
financial politics of the casino; and how you can contact casino
representatives to get some help in case you need it.
Do your research. Check discussion websites to see how the casino you
chose treats its guests. Visit internet websites, like ours, to read the
casino`s reviews. Does your casino have a permission from a government
agency? How long has it been on the internet? Is it a member of
Interactive Council Gaming? Get to know who are you making your business
with, before you use your credit card.
The casinos listed on our Network ensure secure transactions, game
fairness, and 24-hour customer support.

2: Play for fun
Almost every casino offers a game option for fun ("Play for
Free", "Play for Fun"). If a casino does not provide this kind of
version, find another one. First thing you need to do in a casino, is to
test it by playing for fun. This will help you discover unexpected
problems which are a part of online gambling.
3: Demand a sufficient player
support
Good online casinos offer free 24/7 information, 365 days a year. Other
options for the player are: 24h chat line, local telephone numbers, fax
numbers and e-mail addresses. Try out their services and send some
questions by e-mail, or enter a chat line and check if there is anyone
at all. As a future casino guest you have the right to do it just to see
whether there is someone interested in you. Because, when you have a
problem you will probably a casino representative to be available and
helpful. You need to remember that e-mail address- the basic service
that a casino should offer, because their mail box can be full. Besides
they may not look through their mail on time, they may not get your
e-mail etc.
4: Get to know casino pay
options
Most online casinos will credit your card, up to the amount of the
deposit from that card. The rest of winnings will be sent by cheque,
regular mail; it usually takes 1 to 2 weeks. You can often request a
transfer onto your bank account for a fee which is not always that low.
We suggest not to play at a casino which charges fee for paying player`s
winnings. Why would you have to pay for getting back your own money? A
good casino treats its winners (and losers) with respect.
5: Check casino bonuses
Bonuses have become a standard way of attracting and keeping players.
These are bonuses for registration and plans of awarding frequent
players. It is not important that a good casino will thank its players
and will give them little presents and prizes. A casino which does not
offer any bonuses is a rarity, and does not deserve any attention.

Bonuses.
6: Get to know your game
Internet is the world of computer programes and it means that:
the pay, commission, the number of cards in the pack, the number of
zeros on a roulette wheel and anything else can be set the way the
authors of a programe want it to be. If roulette is your favourite game,
why would you play with a double zero if there is also a single one.
Some casinos publish their pay chart rules on their internet website. To
recognize a casino as a reliable one, those numbers should be checked
and certified by a respected accountancy company like Price Waterhouse
Coopers.
7: Don`t play with money you
can`t afford to lose
Play only with money you can afford to lose, money that is
intended to be spent on entertainment.
8: Take your money and run
away
Plan when to stop playing. Some players stop when they get
50% of the winnings, others when they double the amount of money they
intended to spend on gambling. Other players run away when they lose 20%
of their money. Whatever is your style of leaving the game, it is
important that you stick to it. Otherwise, you will keep playing until
you lose all your money, money you won. Greedy players become great
losers.
9: Expect a loss
Casinos do not depend on good luck to stay in business. In
every bet that you make in any game that you play, casino wins depending
on the rules of a specific game. Players can find and play the games in
which casino`s predominance equals 1.5% or less.
10: Enjoy your game
When you intend to gamble on the internet, leave smoke, free drinks,
hangers- and all that casino glamour; thus you can do everything to make
the best use of it. Light your cigar, put on your favourite cd, prepare
something to eat, etc. You are the room supervisor when you play at home
so do it well.
