No trip to Las Vegas is complete without a visit to the glamour and neon of the Strip – but if you’re looking for better odds you’re more likely to find them in the Downtown area at some of the older casinos.
Gambling online is no different – you can have the beauty and excitement provided by some of the better download-based casinos, but in a couple of instances the better odds at video poker and blackjack are found in the no-download casinos, which are usually Java-based.
Let’s start off with our trip down the Internet Strip – a quick look at the popular download-based casino software on the market.
Starnet software is perhaps the most common on the Net – with all of the usual games such as blackjack, video poker, roulette, slots, craps, baccarat, Caribbean stud, Red Dog and others. Most commonly, sites running Starnet software are using the older version of the software, which actually also has no-download Java-based games. Best bets at Starnet casinos seem to be the table games, though the blackjack odds are very ordinary.
You can try some Starnet games at:
Pyramid
World Gaming
Rags to Riches
Note: worldgaming.com is Starnet’s own casino, and is currently the first site on the Net to run Starnet’s new Beyond2000 software. The downloadable version is not available yet but will be sometime in Fall 2000. US and Canadian players are not allowed.
Next on our list is Microgaming, best known for its CashSplash progressive slot machine which is paying the biggest jackpots on the Net every day or two. Again, all the popular games like blackjack, video poker, roulette, slots, craps, baccarat, and Caribbean stud are available, but the best games at Microgaming casinos are the Jacks or Better video poker and the CashSplash progressive slots.
Try some of these top-notch casinos at:
Captain Cook’s
First Web
Making a strong push into the online gambling scene is Boss Media, who recently signed a 먹튀검증 contract with an as yet unnamed land-based casino to deliver an online version. Boss Media also has the best multiplayer games on the Net – they have a smaller selection of games – blackjack, video poker, slots, roulette and baccarat amongst them – but their 3D-rendered graphics are superb. Blackjack is one of the better games at Boss Media casinos.
Check out a Boss Media casino at:
Prestige
Queen’s Club
Cryptologic/Intertainment is also one of the more common casinos found on the Net, with games such as blackjack, video poker, slots, roulette, craps, baccarat and others, and is also a multiplayer environment. Blackjack is a good choice here.
A couple of Cryptologic casinos are:
Intercasino
William Hill
Sands of the Caribbean
Note: Version 4 of their software is still new and may cause problems or not display correctly on some machines. If an older version of the software is available, you are advised to try that version first.
Realtime Gaming is rapidly becoming one of the more popular download casinos on the Net. With a variety of games including blackjack, video poker, slots, roulette, craps, baccarat, Caribbean stud, Red Dog and others, this software manufacturer is sure to be one of the stronger players in the future. Table games and video poker are quite good here.
A selection of Realtime Gaming casinos can be found at:
Windows
Quicksilver
There are other casinos and software manufacturers on the Net – many of them honest, some of them not so honest. All of the above casinos are believed to be fair and honest in gameplay and in dealing with customers. If in any doubt about the reputation of a casino, send an email to webmaster@got2bet.com and I will be happy to provide you with any further information which I may be aware of.
