There’s a new casino on the block called “Casino.com” – and it offers a 100% matchplay bonus of up to 200USD / 100GBP. The casino itself might be new, but it’s run by a very established gaming company – Mansion. Mansion are sponsors of a popular UK Premiership football team – so they are no fly-by-night operation! Based in Gibraltar, the Mansion Group are tightly audited by the jurisdiction of Gibraltar.

So, what type of games are on offer? A wide range, including: Gold Rally, Jackpot Darts, Keno Xperiment, Pop Bingo, Derby Day, Deuces Wild Video Poker, Solo Mahjong, Funky Monkey, American Roulette, Casino Hold Em Poker, Craps, Baccarat, and Blackjack. Join up and play!

Here’s a very special offer from Beat the Casinos: if you join up to Casino.com via links in this blog before 30 September 2008, and then follow all normal sign up and bonus procedures to the satisfaction of Casino.com, I will give you 10GBP / 20USD free. Additionally, if you should end up losing any money over the month of September 2008 ONLY, email me at davewestlondon@yahoo.co.uk and I will PERSONALLY refund you 25% of any net losses you’ve made. So, for example, if you make $500USD, fantastic, that’s what you’ve made! But if you lose for example $500USD, I’ll PERSONALLY give you back $125USD of that. There is an upper limit of $250USD (or other currency equivalent) of my own cash per player for this promotion (i.e. max losses of $1000USD / 500GBP per person can be claimed, and I’ll give you 25% back via Paypal or bank deposit).

Why am I doing this? I want you to win! Every gambler (myself included) has occasional off days, alongside the great ones. I’m offering you a form of insurance I guess… if you win, fantastic. If you lose, I’m going to give you some cash back! This offer, as far as I’m aware, is only available here at Beat The Casinos – another reason to keep visiting and reading.

Please do visit Casino.com and please also let me know if you have any questions. Stay lucky, and play to win!

If you enjoy reading Marvel comics (including Spiderman, The Fantastic Four, The Submariner and others) then you’ll probably also enjoy playing the Marvel slot machines of the same names at Littlewoods Casino. Littlewoods Casino is one of very few online casinos that can offer Marvel branded slots to you.

Besides being great value, all of the Marvel slots have something in common: three progressive jackpot amounts that can go off at any time, at random. You could be sitting there spinning your 25 lines at 1p each, and suddenly end up getting a 7000GBP jackpot! It really CAN happen, if you’re playing at the right time.

The Marvel slot machine games (there are about a dozen of the Marvel branded slots in all) each have great gameplay, along with 2D and 3D elements. What I really like about each Marvel slot machine game is that you can choose your feature type when you trigger it. Most slot machines give you 15 free games as a feature – but with these Marvel slots there are various options you can choose, adding another dimension of chance and excitement. Each slot machine offers up to 25 lines, and you can bet from 1p to 1GBP per line.

I’ve played and captured screenshots from just a few of the Marvel slot machines, to give you an indication of the fun to be had at Littlewoods Casino. Join now, and take advantage of their great signup bonus.

If you found yesterday’s blog post about Live Dealer Roulette etc at Coral Games interesting, then you might well enjoy this post also. In an effort to provide guidance about the various game types you can find online, I’ve been doing further research. UK players can play Live Roulette and Live Blackjack, and watch the actual spins and card turns on their SKY TV (channels 866 and 867), via LiveRoulette.com.

Joining via the Internet is easy, and you can get a startup matchplay bonus of up to 100GBP. Use the banner below to join “LiveRoulette.com“. Debit and credit cards are welcomed. You don’t have to be a UK SKY TV subscriber – as you can watch the live video stream on the Internet as the games are being played.

So, what can you expect to see when you’re playing, and how does this differ to Coral’s Live Dealer games? In Coral’s Live Dealer Roulette you’ll see your chips on the layout but no-one elses. In the LiveRoulette version, the video feed will show all chips on the layout and your login name will appear on those you’ve placed.

In Coral’s Live Dealer Blackjack you can only bet on one hand of blackjack at a time. In the LiveRoulette version you can bet on up to three hands. Three hands are dealt whether you bet on them or not.

Games are played every 2 to 3 minutes on average, always live, always on TV. It’s fun to play this way, and it offers a novel alternative to electronic-only casinos. That said, LiveRoulette does also offer slots, and other electronic games. Importantly, LiveRoulette, operated by Netplay TV PLC, is licensed by the UK Gambling Commission – so you know that the gameplay is fair, and that your money is safe.
