Top 5 Best Online Casinos Guide

Below are top five international gaming websites as of April 30, 2009.

The newest place to play is Rushmore, and because of their long wait to enter the market they were able to build the most sophisticated and stylish gaming lobby on the web. Rushmore Casino operates for all players across the world, meaning they accept US gamblers as well as UK and more International players. Rushmore features online slots, blackjack, roulette, baccarat and the rest of the games a player would expect to find at an Internet gambling website.

Superslots was the savior casino for all those still wishing to bet online after the US passed the UIGEA. They were one of the very few online brands who found the capabilities to accept deposits as well as allow for withdrawals. Superslots has since been overpowered by Rushmore, but they still are considered to have great software in Odds On Gaming and top notch customer support based in the Caribbean. Call them now at 1-866-546-0451 to speak with them personally.

All Slots is a Microgaming powered brand. They accept wagers from all but US citizens. They offer free games updated on a monthly basis. Microgaming is one of the oldest and most well respected online casino software companies and All Slots is one of their top brands. All Slots has a sister site named All Jackpots and together they run the tightest ship in the sea. Each online brand offers the best bonuses available on the net.

InterCasino is arguably the best world-wide online gaming site. They use the best software on the net. The download for their brand may take a little longer than most, but the wait is well worth it. They do not allow wagers from United States citizens, but they do allow bets from UK punters. Cryptologic powers InterCasino, and they have the best slot games in the world, even better than Vegas games. Extras include games from Cryptologic branded with Playboy Bunnies and free movies.

Golden Casino busted on the scene just a few months after the US passed the Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act late in 2006. They came as a replacement for Golden Palace, who left the market because they were powered by Playtech, who did not allow their online brands to operate in the US. The new and upgraded Golden Casino is powered by a different software, Real Time Gaming, who allows their branded operators to accept United States wagers.

Gambling Issues Casinos Must Deal With

The entire gambling industry has to deal with issues such as paying taxes and employees, keeping players happy, and other things, but the biggest issues both land based and online casinos must deal with is problem gamblers and cheaters.

Problem Gambling
The biggest problem with an expansion in gambling is dealing with the many possible perils that expansion can bring to the vulnerable and easily addicted. One of the most underrated and least well known studies that all cities, states, and countries across the world considering expanding gambling operations should know about is the South African gambling prevalence study. The study revealed that problem gambling actually decreased in numbers where casino expansion occurred if the expansion was coupled with very strong public awareness campaigns talking about the possible perils of wagering. General gaming numbers also went down in areas with those aggressive programs.

One of the newest and most implemented ways to protect problem gamblers from playing at casinos is called the self-exclusion program. This is where a player in a state can voluntarily sign up for the program that would enter them into a database that would let all casinos in the state or area know that the player is not allowed to gamble with them. To date, this program is a huge success but needs to be implemented in more areas with expansion.

Online gambling sites have just recently been regulated in the United Kingdom and other European countries and as of yet there are no methods for protecting problem gamblers. Reputable online sites do attempt to stop suspected problem gamblers from playing too much on the Internet, but a player can easily go from one site to another if one stops a player from playing.

Cheaters
One of the biggest issues casinos on land and on line have in common is dealing with cheaters. Land based gaming facilities use intricate security measures, such as detailed and secretive spy cameras positioned strategically through each room. They also have dealers trained to detect when a player plays unusually, or wins too much.

Online casinos deal with cheaters, mainly they are players who abuse initial sign up bonuses. These players will attempt to cash out on bonuses so quickly that is really unfair to the online brand. The industry has all but fixed this problem by coupling each bonus with terms and conditions. These terms and conditions are not meant to rip a player off, but rather they are there to make it fair to both the player and the casino. We have put together a long list of casino bonuses with the best wagering requirements for all new players to use as a guide.

International Internet Betting Laws

It may seem difficult but it is important that all citizens across the world stay updated with Internet Betting laws. Below you will find what we understand as the laws to online betting in certain areas of the world.

US Internet Betting Laws
The United States of America has the most ambiguous online casino laws in the world. They have passed laws to ban banks from allowing transactions that are deemed illegal, but no one has any idea what the United States considers legal or illegal. Currently, all US citizens are advised to check with local laws before gambling online. Even the online casinos aren't sure if you should be allowed to bet at their site. Some companies don't allow US players, others allow some US players, and some could care less where a player is from.

UK Internet Casino Laws
The UK is the first major country to completely legalize and regulate online gambling. The Gambling Act of 2005 was passed while Prime Minister Tony Blair was in office. Blair had a flair for expanding gambling, but when Gordon Brown took over as Prime Minister in the UK he provided a tax structure that was so high that most companies were not urged to relocate to England. Today, all web branded casinos that are in a UK approved jurisdiction are legal for Uk citizens to play at.

International Online Betting Laws
As the world gets deeper into the 21st century and the Internet becomes a more common cultural tool more and more countries are realizing the reality that is Internet gambling. Currently, Spain, Italy, Germany and other countries have moved to legalize and regulate the industry, while few still look to protect their homeland gaming monopolies. It is extremely important to check all local, state, and federal laws before participating in any online gambling activities.
