WMS launched an online casino earlier this year called Jackpot Party which bears the same name as a popular slot game. WMS is the company responsible for those slot games in the land casinos that raise your blood pressure. One in particular is Jackpot Party. It’s the slot game that blows the party horns. Three of them on a pay line trigger the interactive bonus round where you are prompted to touch the screen selecting presents. Each one reveals a prize but scattered throughout the screen are Poopers, characters that want to end your jackpot party. Needless to say, playing this game in the land casino raises my blood pressure beyond belief. The sound of those horns is permanently burned in my brain. This was my favorite slot game for years so you can imagine my surprise when they created an online casino. Lately I’m wondering if there may be a casino trick up their sleeve.

I signed up and to be honest had impeccable luck. Naturally, it became my favorite online getaway.  For the first few weeks of membership, my luck remained good. Wins and losses were fairly equal. I cashed out a £1,900 in the first month. After my last cash out I can’t even win a tenner. I know all too well that we can’t win them all but almost every spin produces no results and believe me, I’ve made numerous deposits.

Other players have commented in chat that “new players” tend to have good luck. At that moment I knew others were noticing the same thing. Do you think it’s possible that the online casinos can control who’s winning and who’s losing? My experiences have really made me wonder.

For me, the slot games are some of the best out there. I’m probably biased because I played their games in the land casinos for years. The first slot I ever put cash into was Jackpot Party. Are great games enough to keep you depositing?

They are TST certified and this certification includes RGN evaluations, game and mathematics evaluations etc. Are you convinced by these certifications or do you believe in the possibility of a trick to reel in new players before slamming the door on us.

Gambling at home has more advantages than you may realize. Online casinos can’t pull the same casino tricks that we are exposed to at land casinos.

I recently came across an article listing numerous tactics used in land casinos to reel us in. For starters, there are typically no windows or clocks. We as players can easily lose track of time. Loose slot machines are strategically placed so players entering the casino are exposed to the lights and sounds of wins. Drinks are served to us eliminating the need to get up. Casinos are built like a labyrinth to ensure that we lose ourselves and are subject to all the casino tricks.

Gambling from my couch is looking better and better. I can get up and grab my own glass of wine thank you.

Keno can be a casino trick in itself.  There’s a  reduced house edge and the game is widely known for its hefty payouts. Online casinos offer Keno as well as bingo sites so it’s readily available.

The rules are simple. Creating matches is critical.  It is similar to lottery where every player has a ticket of 20 numbers. Select the number of games you wish to play and predict the winning numbers for each round. It’s that simple. If you’re not feeling psychic, don’t worry.

If you search out bingo bonuses, you will find that Keno is not an excluded game. Slots are restricted in many cases but Keno counts toward wagering requirements. Try something new. It just might pad your bankroll.

There’s nothing more exciting than an online slot tourney with a fantastic prize but is there a trick to reaching the top of the leader board?

In a word, nope! Slot tournaments are all about racking up points. Of course you can re-buy, which is buying points to add to your score, but there are limits in many cases. The answer is to work for it. Click that spin button as fast as you can.

Most of my experiences with slot tournaments have been a lot of fun especially when one of my favorite slot games is featured. There have been a few tourneys where I have seen the same people win over and over. I must admit, that made me wonder. They are either extremely lucky or there’s a trick up the the online casino’s sleeve.

On second thought, here’s a trick. Choose a reputable casino!

By nature many of us are intimidated by the unknown. For example, take this conversation between Daniel and Mr. Miyagi before a tournament:

Daniel: All right, so what are the rules here?
Mr. Miyagi: Don’t know. First time you, first time me.
Daniel: Well, I figured you knew about this stuff. I figured you went to these before. Oh great, I’m dead. I am dead. You told me you fought a lot.
Mr.Miyagi: For life, not for points.

Be afraid of a Karate kicking black belt but not the online casino! Here’s some simple tricks of the trade to keep in mind during your search for your ultimate online casino.

What’s your game of choice? Determine your favorite software. Software choice narrows down the giant laundry list of online casinos to a few manageable “to do’s”. Take a look at the bonuses they offer. Glancing at the terms and conditions can give you some great insight. Are the play through requirements outrageous or are you having difficulty even locating the T’s&C’s? This is a good indicator of what’s to come.

If you have questions, communicate with the casino. Does the online casino offer live chat? How is the response time? It’s a given that your representative will be named Jack or Jill but if they can’t even tell you what software the casino uses, you might want to skip it. If they aren’t familiar with the bonuses offered on their home page, run!

Now what I’m about to tell you is key. Read player reviews. Sure there are disgruntled players with nothing but negativity but weigh the overall player experiences. Were withdrawal requests honored timely or were their accounts locked with winnings never to be seen again?

In the online casino world, the best trick you can pull out of your hat is knowledge.
