- Know about the BONUS
This is always hard for new people to understand - "$1000 bonus? Not even for nothing?! Yay!..." - Whoa, whoa, hold on. There is a lot of casino money given away, but no casino owner would be so stupid as to give it away for free. They want something in return. They want you to pay them. The calculations show that the average value of a player who makes a deposit is between $600 and $700...
Every time you pick a casino, you need to make sure you know what each bonus means. Is there a maximum amount that the bonus can be added to? "Sticky bonuses" mean that you can take out winnings that are more than the amount of the bonus. There are also bonuses that require you to play for a certain amount of money before you can cash out.
Don't choose a casino based on how much of a bonus they give you, because in the end, you'll always lose a little. When choosing a place to gamble, the atmosphere should be the most important thing after you've made sure the casino is reputable. I don't usually play blackjack to win a lot of money, but I like the crowd at the table, whether I'm playing with or against them. That's what it is: a way to have fun and meet new people.
- Avoid SPAMMERS
These days, it's rare to see a gambling business that spams. Anyway, this is a way that some affiliates use to get players. It's too bad—these things should be reported right away.
- About PULLING OUT
Always look carefully at the terms of a withdrawal. Some casinos don't want to pay you right away and will give you all kinds of reasons why. Well, you shouldn't trust any of them. If the amount is reasonable, you should get your money right away through Neteller, Paypal, or Moneybookers. If you want the money through a Wire Transfer or paycheck, it will take longer.
If you like the casino and want to keep playing there for a long time, always test how fast you can get your money out with a small amount of money first. Stop playing there if you see any problems, and if you're kind, write me a note about your bad manners ;)
...and there aren't many things more important than * KNOW THE GAMES before you play them
This may also sound simple, but there are some games that require you to know more than the average amount about them. Not everything in the casino is a "97 percent slot machine."
When I first went to a casino to play blackjack, I didn't know any of the rules, but I still won a lot of money. When I had made five times what I started with, I was ready to take the money out of the account. After a few days, I started to learn how to play, and I was really hooked. Since then, I haven't doubled with 8+6 against the dealer's ace...:D
When a total newbie sits down at a casino table and starts asking silly questions, it's a bit awkward and strange.
In an online casino, things are a little different. There, a new player won't bother anyone, but he or she may lose money because he or she doesn't know how to play. Even if you win even though you don't know much about the game, you should remember that you would have won more if you knew more.
Good online casinos don't want you to lose your money quickly, because if you do, you're likely to stop playing there. The core of this business is loyal players who win and lose sometimes but keep coming back.
- Don't let strangers get close to your computer.
This may also seem like a very obvious thing to do, but some people still don't know enough! It's bad enough to let your drunk friends mess around with your computer, but it's even worse if your computer gets infected with scumware that saves your passwords and gambling habits.
- Something else that was suggested (but I don't do it)
Some groups that keep an eye on casinos tell players to make a jpg file copy of their passport or driver's licence. They also say to keep a copy of your credit card and utility bill on hand.
They say you need it before making a deposit at the casino. You should send an email to the casino with this information so you don't have to send your credit card or banking information each time. Before sending out your winnings, some online casinos will ask for this information. It's easier to get this taken care of BEFORE you get lucky and start winning, because waiting for your winnings to show up in your bank account can be a pain in the rear.
I've never sent any jpg files to a casino operator, and I haven't been scammed yet. Most likely, I've just been lucky because I don't go to many different casinos.
