Online Gambling

If you’d like to show off your online backgammon skills — and put your money where your mouth is — then GameColony is the place for you. Throughout the day, GameColony offers various types of online backgammon games with real cash prizes. They offer both single and double elimination tournaments, played to various point levels. But your real money maker is playing heads up against other players. There are usually more than 100 players in the Main Hall, waiting to play online backgammon for real cash.

The way it works is that you purchase tickets via PayPal, use the tickets to enter tournaments in which you can win more tickets, and then cash out your tickets as cash via PayPal.

If you go to GameColony through a link in this blog, you’ll get $10 FREE to start.

If online backgammon isn’t your game, they have all kinds of other skill-based and arcade-style games that you can also play for cash and prizes. I’ll be highlighting some of the additional games in the coming days and weeks.

GameColony accepts players from most states. Players from the following states are barred from play at GameColony: AZ AR DE FL IA IL KY LA MD MO NY SC NV OH WA VT.

Three Card Poker (also called Tri-Card Poker) is a popular table game at many casinos. Most casinos, both online casinos and land-based casinos, have reasonable pay tables for winning hands. However, as with most casino games, it pays to shop around for the absolute best returns that you can find.

I’ve analyzed the Three Card Poker pay tables from over a dozen online casino software vendors. Eight of them offer the best pay tables — meaning the lowest house edge, and the best returns for the player. The Three Card Poker from these eight online casino software vendors has a 5.32% house edge, assuming that you play with Q6x or better, and fold otherwise. Here is the pay table to look for:

The eight online casino vendors with this Three Card Poker pay table are as follows:

• BoDog Casino also has a sports book and poker room
• BetOnSoft: Treasure Mile is a favorite of mine
• Players Edge: Tropical Cash Casino is where I play
• Proprietary #2: Only at Win4Real
• Microgaming online casinos: Loved these casinos, but they closed to US players
• BetSoft online casinos
• PlayTech online casinos
• Proprietary #1 online casinos

Good luck at the tables!

Luck3 is a fairly new addition to The Online Casino Gambling Directory. They offer casino, poker, and other games and accept players from all 50 states in the US.

I just received word that they are offering $33 Free on any casino deposit on April 3, 2009. Now that’s a pretty cool deal!
