Online Gambling Bonus

by Jerry "Jet" Whittaker
July 3, 2006


Online casinos, also recognized as virtual casinos, are online versions of traditional casinos. Online casinos enable gamblers to play and wager on casino games through the Internet. Online casinos usually offer odds and payback percentages that are comparable to land-based casinos. Assuming that the online casino is using a suitably programmed random number generator, table games like blackjack have an established house edge. The payout percentages for these games are recognized by the rules of the game. Reliability and trust subjects are commonplace and often questioned. Many online casinos lease or purchase their software from renowned companies like Wager Works, Micro gaming, Real-time Gaming, Playtech and Cryptologic in an attempt to piggyback their reputation on the software manufacturer's credibility. These software companies either use or assert to use random number generators to ensure that the numbers, cards or dice appear randomly.


Bonuses available and its advantages


Many online casinos proffer signup bonuses to new players making their first deposit. These bonuses usually match a percentage of the player's deposit with a dollar maximum and almost all online casino signup bonuses require a minimum amount of wagering before allowing cash out. Game play at specific casino games might be debarred from the wagering requirement calculation. Advantage players who use bonus proffers for an expected profit are often called bonus hunters, bonus abusers, bonus baggers, bonus whores and casino scalpers. Some online casinos have restrictions regarding the spirit of the bonus proffer which they sometimes use as a deterrent to what they consider bonus abuse. A player who wishes to do this at a large number of online casinos must be cautious. Some casinos are rogues and do not disburse. Others have terms and conditions that are not flattering to the player, such as most bonuses that are restricted to slots.


Common fraudulent behaviors


Common fraudulent behavior from online casinos players comprises the signing up for multiple casino accounts using different identities in order to claim a bonus offer multiple times. Another form of fraudulent behavior may be the use of a graphics editing software like Adobe Photoshop to create a false winning slot machine game screenshot in an attempt to tell the casino they hit a jackpot and didn't get paid for it. Online casinos generally lock the player accounts for these people, and it's widely believed that online casinos share fraudulent player blacklists.
