TIPS FOR GAMBLERS

... WE GOT ANSWERS |
| Answer to Q1: To download or not to download? That is the question. Some online casinos
require you to download and install software - others do not. ¨Download¨ games is the coined term for those that need to be downloaded, whereas
¨no-download¨ games refer to Java or games that run through the website interface. |
Answer to Q2: For starters, non-download games are pretty straightforward in approach.
When you download games, it might require following step-by-step instructions. If you don´t like browsing through the installation procedures rules
your online casino provides, lets get to it with the following guidelines:
After downloading your Playtech or Microgaming software, restart your computer. For many other installed programs, this might not be necessary - but
you´re most likely using Windows, which starts ¨fresh¨ after every reboot meaning smoother running of your programs. Once your computer is rebooted
and you see the Microsoft Windows desktop screen again, click on the casino´s icon that was placed there. This will automatically bring the software
to life, connecting it to the casino´s home site after an install verification. Play for real or for fun and get started! |
Answer to Q3: Now, you´ve won $450 dollars on a progressive jackpot spin. All you need
to do now is cash out, correct? You couldn´t be further from the truth. Many online casinos have regulations detailing how much money you can cash
out and when. In many instances, players can only withdraw up to the amount they deposited their first time around. What happens to the rest of your
earnings?
Two words: be patient. Some prize cheques take weeks to arrive in the mail after the casino lets you cash out. Many online casinos require you to use
a PIN number (arriving through the mail) before you can redeem any winnings. There are also those that take the secure route: asking for many proofs
of identification to their fax number to verify who you are before sending any money.
Many online casinos are absurdly picky with their requirements. Many will ask for your social security number while others may even ask for your
fingerprints on a fax (not a joke!). This invasion of privacy can tick off many online gamers, so its your choice over whether you want to go through
with this or not. Become acquainted with what casinos require from the start by reading up on withdrawal information which will spell out their rules
and regulations. Play your hands at another casino if you feel uncomfortable with their requirements. |
| Answer to Q4: Overall, casinos have a pretty fair cash out policy, although they can be
picky at times. A lot of them will issue you your own unique identification number, which is called a PIN. This is needed for gamers to request a
cashout. Oftentimes, your PIN number will arrive through the mail which can take a week or two. This is an extra security feature provided by the
casino to make sure the address you´ve given them is legitimate and to sidestep fraud. Nevertheless, its a common mantra of the everyday online
casino safeguarding the integrity of their players and their own. |
