| Many online casinos seem quite fair (especially from the four main software companies) but it is by no means guaranteed due to very little regulation by most licensing authorities. Discuss your opinions and experiences on the risk here. |

I think most of them are fair you have some unfair casino that are unfair i have ran into a few of them. But i think you can run into unfair casino online and land base casinos. I played at allslots casino my 1st casino i ever played at online i won 500 dollars off 20 that i put into my acct they had not gave me the bonus yet so i was able to cash out the 500 and play off the 50 i got free. If i wanted to cash-out from the free 50 i was given i had to turn it over i think it was 15 times which i thought was very fair. _________________ LovelyEssences |

| Whats scarey is the casinos that once were trusted are having more and more complaints. Not a good sign for the true gambler. What gets me is the casinos that require a huge amount of winnings before you see a payout. Most cant get to that 2,000.00 or so they require and those casinos know it. |

I have to disagree with you booboo. I don't see any problems with the trusted casinos at all.
The Huge problem is bonus abusers, fraudulent players, and anyone looking for an angle to beat a casino other then gambling.
They are making life for the players who deposit a living hell!
All the huge play through amounts the casinos added to there terms & conditions are because of all the con artists running from one bonus to another.
The funny thing is, these people call themselves gamblers.
I call them thieves, and dumb ones at that LOL!

| I agree with you Tricon! There are many scammers who make it tough for us depositing honest players. I deposit every chance I get lol. I have found my fav micro to be casino Grand Bay, Bella vegas, and Jupiter club, also all slots. They flush your account when you win so you wont play it all back as I'm sure we have all done lol. I also like the phoenician since they pay you in no time flat! iNetbet is also a very reputable rtg. |

| For the most part, I don't accept any bonuses due to the wagering requirements. I want to play on my own money, and if I win, be able to actually see it. Yes, bonus abusers and scam artists (those who sign up multiple accounts to get additional bonuses etc) cost the gaming industry a lot, just as shoplifters cost the retail business. Both have the same results: those who play by the rules (as in, 'the rest of us') bear the costs (either by retail markup or by the demise of 'free comps' that had little or no wagering requirements). |

I just found this thread and I am quite happy to read those words coming from players... I have tried to explain the same thing at WO and have been trashed very fastly.
I think the only solution for these problems are phantom bonuses with no wagering requirements. What do you think? _________________ http://www.sortonlinecasinos.com - Use SortOnlineCasinos.com to easily find any casinos within YOUR needs!

To answer the original question:
Yes I do think most online casino's are fair.
And yes, I definitely think it's worth the risk!
(And I have lots of $$$ to prove it! ) |

Buckly, there must be a reason why you feel this way?...I play and win online all the time..in fact I have never once not been paid and usually recieve my winnings in 48 hours or less. It may very well be the casinos you are playing at or the software you play at most often.
I'd be happy to share some of my fav's with you.... ..but with the volume of money and competition available in the way of online casinos not too many operators mess around anymore because it is not in there best interest to do so.

overall they are fair. of course they protect themselves before the player when it comes to bonuses, but thats expected....i have only come across a few dishonest sites that go against their own black and white rules. _________________ onestopgamblingguide.com... |

| sometimes the game seems against you and things seems rigged, sometimes i think it is, they just pay thier winners so as to look reputable, have good CS, but behind the scenes they are rigging it, others are fully rogues and dont pay anyone and i guess some are fully legit i have cashed out at a few of the places i play but most of the time i either have a bonus attached and cant meet wager requirements, am too greedy or reverse before its processed. online casinos dont really need to be rigged or not pay when you think about how many people reverse or get greedy, you would still be in front owning a legit online casino. i guess you need to do your research before you deposit. |

Come on people its called gambling for a reason. It is a risk but over all I think most of the online casinos are fair and honest.

Well in all my years of online gaming I have yet to not get a cashout owed to me. Discretion is part of the game and certain RTG casinos....well many of them should not be played at at all.
The games for the most part by any reputable gaming site are not rigged at all. There is far too much money to be earned from depositing players and rigging the games will only cost them money in the end and they are not there to lose money but to earn it.
All you need to do is watch the payouts versus what you have bet and you can easily determine payouts to some degree. |

I think most of them are fair, I have my favorites that I deposit at weekly sometimes when they are giving bonuses for depositing and even when they aren't.
And yes I agree that the bonus abusers have made it tough for us depositing gamblers.. instead of raising the wagering requirements for all players on bonuses.. I wish that the casinos set the wagering requirements for bonuses according to how often you deposit and how much you deposit.
In other words
New players and those who have only deposited a few times would have a higher wagering requirement on bonuses than those who deposit frequently. |

| I feel online casinos for the most part are fair. I will say I have come across many rogue casinos with rogue software. I play at only the casinos I know about anymore and stay away from any that I haven't a clue about. I think it is worth the risk if you know where you are playing and what they are all about in terms of software and payouts. |
