My experience of online gambling
1. http://lottery.merseyworld.com/Virtual/Form.html - a free online lottery. To win one has to answer a question about the site and to guess at least 4 numbers in the real UK lottery (1:1,000 probability). No fees, one entry per person. I won 250 Swiss francs ($190) and received the money within 10 days by wire to my bank.
2. www.uslottery.com gave me free $25 to test the games. I played bingo, found the games amusing, but won $28, withdrew, got the check.The money was actually received.
3. www.goodluckclub.com gave me free $25, I played roulette, found it good enough, won $80, received and cashed their check.
4. www.granddominican.com gave me free $25, I played roulette, found it not too good, won and withdrew $50, received their check and mailedto my bank. Their site does not have a secure server for credit card transactions.
5. www.fortunecasino.com gave me free $30 on my initial purchase of $20. I played roulette, found it good enough, won $120, received $20 back to my credit card and a check for $100. Mailed the check to my bank.
6. mapau casino, a sister of #5, gave me free $30 on my initialpurchase of $ 20. I played roulette, found it good enough, lost all money.
7. www.ccasino.com gave me free $50 on my initial purchase of $50. Iplayed roulette, found it good enough, lost all money. Added $30, lost.My wife was also given free $50. She won and withdrew $70 couple of days ago.
8. www.firstlive.com gave me free $10, I played roulette on the site without any downloading, found it not too good (maybe because of my lousy ISP), won $26, received it to my card 3 weeks later. Then I purchased $20, won $30 (net $10), I am now expecting the cash-in to arrive. Then I purchased $50, won $90, cash-inned $80. Now waiting for the money to arrive.
9. English harbor Casino gave me free $20 on my initial purchase of $20.I played roulette, found it good enough, lost all money.
10. Casino of South Pacific at www.cosp.com or www.sp.cosp.com. I had very bad experience here. The site is bad, service is no good, games are primitive, connection is very slow. The overall impression is disgusting. They gave me free 5 Swiss francs ($3), I played slots, won50, and after 2 months I am still unable to withdraw the winnings which are in the pending category. Only cleared winnings are allowed to withdraw. My e-mails are ignored. Besides, they say they charge 8 Sfr for a check.
11. I have never played the sister casinos of Treasurehunter,Twinklingstar, Casino Manhattan because I did not like the way they acted, like ignoring e-mails, suddenly changing their plans etc. My total impression of their acting is as of something suspicious and not very honest.
12. I also played Australian lottery (so-called Saturday TattsLotto) 6/45 at some Australian online lottery site. They charged me US $1 per ticket. Later I found out that this ticket really costs AUD $0.46 i.e.about US $0.30. I discovered it at the online site of the official agent of the Australian lotteries, prosperity or luck-e-lotto. I am now playing there paying only US $0.30 per ticket. They are at:
Hint: when registering here , do not choose the jurisdiction of Victoriato avoid the payment of a 10% sale tax additionally to the cost of theticket, AUD $0.30.
