Any experiences there?
I signed up a few months ago through a free chip. As I rarely if ever play sportsbooks it took a few months to figure out how to transfer my accounts. They email once or twice a month and that's the only reason I even went back and looked.
I won't be playing sports as I'm US, but the casino was kind of okay as far as I could tell (they fractionate your cash with bonus money%)

I've asked about them on two other forums since I signed up and no one has replied.

I wont ignore you Lojo mate!

I took a look at this casino - and it's one of those which immediately rings loud alarm bells!

This from just a 15 minute visit:-
Homepage welcome (I added the bold):

"We invite you come to experience the best casino on the Internet. We have low limit casino style table games with 50 cent min betting limits to insure you more Bang for the Buck! Our video slots and poker machines pay up to a whopping 98.96% to 99.96%. Come check out our State of the Art Poker Room which is getting close ot over 1000 players! You are invited to sign up now and be ready to play poker on the same account. Our Sports Book just opened, so go ahead and bet on your favorite sports!"

best casino on the Internet ? Says who?
up to a whopping 98.96% to 99.96%.. Hang on, is that up to 98.96% or up to 99.96%? Even they don't seem to know! Surely by saying 'up to' that could mean some of their slots only pay out 10%...!
ot ? I don't know that word! Best casino on the net & they don't even have spell-check?


When I opened the casino a message said:-
"Welcome, We are glad that you choose the largest, casino Sports Book and Slot casino on the Internet today!"
Largest on the internet??? I do not think so!!!
"Our new poker room will be opening at the end of December..."
Hello! It's FEBRUARY already! Will be opening? What, is that NEXT December...?

Then I clicked on the 'Promotions' tab to find out about their huge 100% welcome bonus...
The page that came up was a sort of games review page - no mention of any bonus or promotion anywhere in sight!

I looked for any regulatory seals.... nope.
About us.... nope.
Clues as to the software used... nope.

On the plus side they do have quite a big selection of games, including a good selection of over 20 slots.

Their Roulette is exceptionally good for a no-download casino; Only 50c minimum bets, can 'spin' with no bets (it doesn't actually spin, but does produce a new random number) and the spin graphic itself is among the best I've ever seen on the net!
If this casino turns out OK I would definitely rate this highly on my Roulette Lovers page!

They may well be perfectly fine & above board, just very new & very inept, so my advice is; if you proceed do so with great caution & expect the worst.

If you do, please let me know how you get on!
I might have a go myself if I can find the time to ask them questions re the above first.

Thanks KK.
Like I said I wasn't familiar with sportsbooks so after I got the free chip it took awhile to find the cashier and figure out how to transfer the bonus into 'play'. Some of the slots are cool... haunted and drive in... different, I like that.
Another red flag is that they are eager and 'creative' in helping US deposit... that's all I'll say... let's just say 'unconventional'. I haven't deposited.
The bonus thing was strange... got $6 free chip and $10 'free money'. With every .25 bet, something .23 came out of the cash and .02 from the free money... don't know if they'd use that in some strange formula to work you over trying to withdraw winnings from the free chip.
All said and done, I guess I won't deposit as I won't even play bodog from the States, being primarily a sportsbook.
Thanks for looking into it!

Regards

They sent me another invitation... I'm out of my league with sportsbook/casinos so i ignored it.

I thought about 'helping them out' via your feedback, but thought better of it... for a US player that would be like telling the prom queen you think her little sister has a nice personality I don't need a sportsbook paying attention to me... nothing worse than a desperate gambler (where is the eeewww-shiver cheetos on the braces smiley?) and sportsbook seem to attract desperate gamblers in many capacities :big eek:
