Monday, April 25th, 2011

FreeSlots360.com is a companion site of The Online Casino Gambling Directory. The site gives step-by-step instructions on the basic aspects of online gambling, and it is geared toward the novice online gambler. While the site is focused on playing online slot machines, the basic information holds true for any kind of online gambling.

Here are the links to the FreeSlots360.com content. Each is a single page in length, and very easy to follow.

I just completed an updated of FreeSlots360.com in which I updated all of the free chip offers, the initial deposit match bonuses, and the free timed-play offers.

Use UseMyWallet to Reduce Withdrawal Costs

Sunday, September 5th, 2010

UseMyWallet, also referred to as QuickTender, is an invitation-only e-wallet that is becoming increasingly popular with online bingo rooms, online casinos, online poker rooms, ans online sportsbooks. Payouts from online gambling sites to UseMyWallet are at no cost to you, compared to payouts via checks that can cost up to $50.

If you have more than one online gambling site where you withdraw from on a regular basis, and they support UseMyWallet, you may want to consider having all payouts into your UseMyWallet account, and then do a single payout from your UseMyWallet account. The cost for a payout from UseMyWallet to a linked bank account is $30 + what your bank charges to receive an international wire transfer (usually in the $12-$25 dollar range).

Another benefit of having a UseMyWallet account is that you can use it as a way to transfer funds from one online gambling site to another, at no cost to you. It will take a few days to complete the transfer, but if you want to transfer funds from a casino to a sportsbook, for example, UseMyWallet may be a way to do that.

To get a UseMyWallet account, the general guideline is that you need to have made $500 in deposits and withdrawals AND have an active account for 90 days or more before requesting that the online gambling site send you an invitation to open a UseMyWallet account. Doyle’s Room Poker and Casino does it this way, although the requirements to receive a UseMyWallet invitation may vary at other sites.

Quick Strategy Series: Three Card Poker

Sunday, September 14th, 2008

Three card poker is an increasingly popular casino table game. At online casinos, you may see the game referred to as Poker Three. Whatever its name, the basic idea of the game is to make a high-ranking poker hand with three cards; beating the dealer’s qualifying hand is also profitable.

Players post an inital Ante bet and an optional Pair Plus bet. After receiveing three cards, players decide to make a final Play bet, or else forfeit their Ante and Pair Plus bets. The decision to make the final Play bet or not is a simple one:

  • If your hand is a Q-6-x or better, make the Play bet.
  • Otherwise, fold.

Complete rules of three card poker are available, as well as 100s of sites where you can play three card poker.
