Software manufacturers

In this post I shall list only brief description to the most basic manufacturers of the software for the Internet casino. The majority of modern casinos, popular and known online are arranged by an identical principle. The company-owner of Internet casino buys from the company-manufacturer of online casino software the license and a software. The company-manufacturer of a casino software is engaged only in manufacture (including poker and bingo software) and its complex service, including banking.
Development of an own game platform very complex, long employment which demands greater material inputs. Considering also an increasing competition,now there few online-casino which would create an own casino-software. Much easier, more cheaply and more conveniently to buy it at large company-manufacturer of the game software. But nevertheless, still there is some rather good Internet casino with a software of own development.

Advantages of Internet casino from the known manufacturer:

First - Large companies care of the reputation and beacause of that if the casino uses a software from the known manufacturer - for the player it is a guarantee of honesty, reliability and safety of games in this casino.
Secondly - Increasing competition forces firms to improve constantly the product, offering players new versions of the software, thinking out new games and improving quality and convenience of the casinos games.
Thirdly - Safety of money transactions. As a rule in all casino the bank (cashier) is built in a casino and guarantees safety and confidentiality of your account. Besides, the large company serving many online casino will easier and more quickly agree about connection of new systems of electronic payments.
In the fourth - Progressive jackpots ! As the casino using software of one manufacturer, deduct the certain percent in the sum of the general growing jackpot, more casino use a software of one manufacturer, more sum of progressive jackpot grows!

Manufacturers of Internet casino software:

Beginners of the market:

OddsOn - Vegas Technology ® - Large manufacturer of a software. Its casinos staying slightly isolated group because of features of licensing and the property of the company. The matter is that the company-manufacturer of a casino software belongs to company EH New Ventures which was primary the owner only several casinos, but success of this casino group has led to that the company has redeemed the manufacturer and has renamed a software. These are very good online casino.
RealTime Gaming - Also large and known manufacturer. In connection with especial conditions of licensing for the casino-software, some casinos have slightly damped reputation of this magnificent provider of a software. Nevertheless, RTG casino software concedes to nothing, and on some parameters and surpasses the competitors.Basic positive features of this software - small size of the full version of a casino, very fast games, rather loyal to the player rules of games,low interest.

Old, "checked up" Internet-casino manufacturers:

PlayTech - has very hard gone through leaving from the North-American market after introduction of the new legislation in the USA. Many groups send away in a shadow, part of a casino was closed, but the leaders were kept working and operatively enough switched to the European and Russian markets. Moreover, PlayTech actively develops and advances the poker rooms network - "iPoker by Playtech", new casinos have opened, and they have considerably grown in a network of bingo halls. As if to the Russian market here PlayTech only strengthened and expanded a spectrum of the Russian-speaking casinos. To the famous "Brandy Casino", have joined completely in Russian - "Casino Tropez" and "Europe Casino". Many sites of Playtech casino have got Russian-speaking versions and prepare at least 5 Playtech casino with completely Russian software and support from known English-speaking brands.
Cryptologic(WagerLogic) - It is considered, that exactly this company makes most realistic casino games. Have perhaps the shortest list of client casinos on Cryptologic platform that does not prevent to have the loudest names and the highest reputation and popularity in the online players community. Monetary transaction are made by affiliated company E-CASH DIRECT, that basically rather conveniently and guarantees a high level of safety of monetary transactions between casino and players.
BOSSMEDIA - Conservatism and classics perhaps the main criteria describing a game casino software from this manufacturer. Always quiet and pleasant atmosphere reigning practically in all casino with this software influences on emotional spirit and on results of game. The quantity of games are not amaze with a variety, however very low interest of casino advantage in the majority of games, plus reputation of the most fair Internet casino software compensate it. Bossmedia casino are very much appreciated in the environment of professional players for the most loyal and most approached to the reality rules of games and atmosphere of a casino. In the Russian market are presented by a leader among their casinos - Casino Club Russia.
MicroGaming - Most large and known manufacturer of a casino software. Total quantity of different games in their last version of a casino software has exceeded 300! Number of client casinos also continues to grow and develop stably. Also Microgaming actively advances the poker rooms network - "Prime Poker" Microgaming Poker Rooms.Alreade comes closely nearer to most popular Internet poker rooms. Besides the software is interesting by a lot of games with progressive jackpots, Microgaming offers the biggest for today number of such casinos games. First large jackpot, in history of online-casino, has been won in one of Microgaming casino - CaptainCooksCasino. How many have won ? $1.540.000. But it is not the main thing, main is that such jackpots are win in Microgaming casino every month!

It is far not the full list of software manufacturers. I have not mentioned in this list enough big group of a casino on Net Entertainment platform - Ongame Poker Network, except of this exist set of Internet casino having own casino software about which I shall tell later. Also I shall try to consider more developed each large manufacturer of a casino software listed above.

Casino choice guide

After some researches lead by me on online casino ( Review on Russian online casino for example) I have decided to write the guide for people looking for hazardous adventures in Internet Casino.

How to choose online casino to the beginning player ? On what it is necessary to pay attention at a choice ? What will be a determinative for reception of positive experience of game in online casino?
So. How to "choose Internet casino". A question complex enough only firstly. Having visited about ten sites of online casino you at once will note the basic general features and sections, and also will see the most important conditions and features for yourself of each casino.

1) Site of the Internet casino. Before a choice of any thing, I always and to all recommend easy examine it. And to examine its most visible parts. Usually it is enough in 90 % of cases to solve, whether it is necessary to learn about this casino further, or to not spend time on it.
What should be on a site of online casino ? I list under the order:
- information on owners and ways of communication (contact us, about us)
- a trade mark of the country in which the casino is licensed
- a trade mark of the company manufactured games (can be exceptions)
- "games viewing" page, "help" page, "bonus info" page
Also site should have pleasant convenient and not cheap enough design, easily accessible information on conditions and restrictions between the player and a casino, and also easily accessible information on ways of contact to a support service.
2) Game casino software. Second important parameter at a choice of online casino is a kind of a casino software. Depending on "for what" you choose a casino, for constant game , or for casual rare entertainment, the kind of a casino will have crucial importance.
Game software of online casino differs on two important parameters: first is a kind of program downloadable , or not downloadable , and second - what company manufactured this software.
- Downloadable Internet casino - for the first it is necessary to download a casino downloader usually 150-300 kb , then download the basic program installation file. It differs on manufactured company, but is usual at a rate of from 1,5 Mb up to 12 Mb. After installation and unpacking of a casino file, it is necessary to register a casino account , and to enter in the game client. Usually in most installers some games are loaded by default. BlackJack, roulette and a couple of slot machines.
Disadvantages - necessity of their uploading, big size of a full set of a casino games, necessity of constant uploading of updatings.
Advantages - are not present necessity to download favourite game everytime , an opportunity to play offline on virtual money (Playtech,Bossmedia), convenience of using bank, account, help files as it is not necessary for each action to come into a browser.
-Not downloadable Internet casino - usually made with use of Java or Flash technologies . In many popular Internet casino not downloadable versions supplement the basic version of a game software. For game it is necessary to register casino account on a site , then to enter into it in a window of a browser, or on the site, or in specially opened new window with the flash-version of a casino lobby, where you can make the deposit, remove money and choose games.
Disadvantages - each time to play though in one game, it will be necessary for you to download all flash or java casino lobby, for fulfilment of the deposit you should leave a casino lobby, and to enter separately through a browser in cashier, quality, design and quantity of games in not downloadable versions considerably below, than in downloadable, it is impossible to play offline on interest.
Advantages - at low connection speed it is not necessary to wait long for loading of a file of a casino and loading big quantity of games, speed of yours Internet connection by uploading of additional games in the latent mode does not brake, it is convenient at irregular game in casino, when there is no necessity to hold the version in a computer.
Between flash and java-casino is not a lot of basic distinctions, but by my experience, flash casino much more conveniently and more high-grade than games written on java.
3) Manufacturers of a casino of a software. Now there about ten most popular manufacturers of Internet casino. Only having played in a casino with a software from each manufacturer you can choose, that is pleasant to you. For more detailed information i will write separate post about Manufacturers of Internet casino, where will be briefly described leaders of this branch and the basic features of online casino with their software.
4) Ways of the deposit/cashout money from a casino. For reception of positive experience from game in online casino , perhaps this factor has great value. Before to play a casino on real money you should very closely study section of a casino banking on a site of a concrete casino in which you are going to play. It will relieve you of unnecessary expenditure of time and will save up to you your precious nerves, that finally will necessarily affect and on your good.
5) Casino bonuses. For the beginning player I am not advise to choose Internet casino on the size of a free-of-charge bonus. But if you have decided to play on real money, and besides wish to receive a bonus on the deposit, or simply wish to try a casino without a depositary bonus very attentively, veeery attentively, read conditions and restrictions for each casino, for each bonus. In most cases, casino demand from the player of fulfilment of the certain quantity of rates (wager) before it will be possible to remove received bonus and deposit. That for you was not unpleasant news that after reception of a bonus you cannot take away the deposit though already for a long time has played in this casino, closely read conditions of each casino bonus.

If some terms are not clear to you (such as wager, deposit, banking, bonus, cashier) look this post.

15 most common terms

Certainly in itself following words and terms are familiar to you, however their value in a Internet Casino lexicon have some nuances. Look at core terms from casinos most often meeting in the Internet , it will help you to answer the most frequent questions before game in a casino.

Account - Contains data about the player, its balance of cash, personal data and a condition of game activity (Game Histories - not in all casino).
Kinds of accounts:
Fun = Guest Account - Allows the player to play in a casino in a free-of-charge mode. Usually on virtual money which are automatically filled, after decrease below the certain level, or the player can add or cut down the balance of virtual money itself.
Real Account - Account for game on real money. Actually, all is clear what for it. The subtlety exists only in one. Some online casinos offer to players on real money the BONUS WITHOUT DEPOSIT at opening real account. For this purpose it is necessary to register not simply real account , but also to bring data about the credit card. Then you can receive this bonus.

Amount - Sum, cash, quantity of money which you wish to list or take away from a casino. (Amount to deposit, Amount to WithDraw)

Bank (Cashier) - In online casino this term has little bit other functions, but its same sense, as in usual casinos. Here players can deposit/purchase or withdraw/cashout cash. Here the player specifies a way by help of which you will do it and data about each concrete way (Credit Card, Wire Transfer, Check, Bank Draft etc.) Also in cashier player can exchange collected Loyalty = Comp Points for cash or to take away them, and also to invite the friend, having received for each involved player the certain compensation - refer a friend bonus.

Bonus (Bonuses) - Bonuses , guest chesspieces. With what actually also online casino involve players. Free-of-charge chesspieces on which it is possible to play a real mode. There are some kinds of bonuses. Detailed info about a casino bonuses will be later...

Fairness - Honesty - Usually conditions of fair game stipulate in "terms" and "conditions" and are frequently reduced to definition of the wager size for bonuses.

Random Number Generator - the generator of random numbers. A guarantee of fair and genuine results of game. For some reason at all casinos it shows absolutely different "casual" numbers :)

Loyalty = Comp Points - Points , charged to you for game. Charging strictly according to the sum of rates which you have made in a concrete casino.

Wager - Sum of rates - Total money on which you have made rates, playing in online casino. The term is usually used in conditions of reception bonuses. Before you can remove bonuses which you have received at registration from account , it is necessary for you to make rates for the certain sum.

It is considered usually for each separate month. Term reflects the real financial percent usually checked by auditor firms. The most known - PriceWaterHouse Coopers - spends audit of payments for the majority "Microgaming" casino. This figure reflects only last activity of players and casino, it cannot form the basis for the assumption of percent of payments at all next months.

I hope it will help you:)

Some Tips

For a long time wished to lay out the separate list of useful advice for online players. Online casino have the specificity, and it, certainly, it is necessary to consider at game. Not everything, that approaches in case of usual ground casinos can help with Online Casino.

General online casino provisions

Certainly, all underwritten is dictated by usual common sense, however many players for some reasons ignore these items.

• Study rules everyone new to you online casino before game. And even if it is already habitual for you - check up all last changes in rules.
• Use bonuses of a casino on a maximum. The main advantage of online casino - these "free-of-charge money" - bonuses so what for to refuse them? While you play with bonuses - you have advantage above internet casino. If you play without bonuses - casino has advantage above you.
• If you wish to receive not simply pleasure from game, but also to win … or to receive for the money a maximum of pleasure and game time - study base strategy for your favourite games of a casino! Certainly, these strategy at all do not guarantee to you a prize, but they will reduce advantage of a casino to a possible minimum, that, once again I shall repeat, will increase your chances of a prize and will prolong time of game in Internet casino>.
• Play only in popular casinos which have recommended in Internet. If online casino site does not cause trust in you and if there even no contact data - simply forget about it ! How to learn what casino it is possible to trust, and what are too doubtful? Read reviews and responses of players on profile sites (as , for example our group of blogs) and forums.

All it seems quite obvious, whether not so? But wonder, whether always you follow these rules? We shall go further away, and we shall consider more complex cases.

The general errors about the Internet casino

I repent, I did these mistakes many times too. However, beginners are most subject to similar errors only. With experience, in a head the general picture which any more does not allow the professional player to make these silly mistakes is built.

• There is no place to superstitions in online casino ! Your success is defined only by mathematics and your skills of game. All rest - the shamanism, not referring the rights on serious to it.
• The popular belief - that success of game in a casino depends on your current emotional condition. That is , if for mood at you bad - will lose. I dare to assure you, that it is full bosh. Though I (right at the beginning) most of all suffered from this error.
• Special case - " game on sense". When it seems, that the generator of random numbers of online casino has gone mad, and game goes somehow is supernatural improbably, many players "give weakness", and start to recede from unique mathematical-true base strategy. " Game on sense " - in 10 cases from 10 will lead you much more to the worst results, than game on the predetermined base strategy. Be not tempted with arrangements of panic mind, that unusual conditions demand unusual measures.
• Let's take, for example, so-called "loosing streak"- long strips of continuous failures. Absolutely fresh example from my own practice - recently in BlackJack in Goldfishka I have received a strip of 10 losing distributions successively. Whether it means that the casino plays dishonestly? In my opinion - no ! Yes guys , shit happens … And believe to me as to the skilled player in ground casinos - in online casino such " focuses of fate " too happen! Despite of everything, in Goldfishka (and in many other online casinos )I am in good plus. And all only because always played with mind, and did not give in to strong emotions.

Russian casino review result

After reviewing these Russian online casinos I have come to conclusion, that Goldfishka is the best Russian online casino. I estimated by following criteria - honesty, convenience, beauty, support team , money, opportunity to play to people who don't know Russian. I shall not describe long why I have made this choice while you will not try it will be difficult to explain. Here an estimation of Goldfishka by players.

"From all Russian casinos most I played in it, especially with the advent of the Viper-version. I play most in blackjack, sometimes passing to videopoker, results quite within the limits of math - sometimes I win, sometimes I lose, as a whole all is very equal. Casino periodically gives personal bonuses, and also spends tournaments/draws in which quite really to win in addition pair tens dollars.
I think, the resume is already clear. Microgaming software - the most popular in the world for the present moment, excellent support, good results of game, positive opinion of players. I shall add tournaments, programs of encouragement, bonuses, as a result Goldfishka - an obvious choice of the provided player (all the same the minimal rate - $1). Only it is not necessary to hope to win constantly just as to me has carried in skilled session, in games still nobody cancelled advantage of a casino! Money from Goldfishka i have received in two days (there is a variant of express train-payments within a day)."

"In my opinion, the best casino in runet. Playing on various strategy, and shaking a dispersion not childly, it was possible till 1-10 $ to rise rates with 60 $ up to 1000 $ +... However, МО always prevails, and after such successful sessions INEVITABLY came plums in the following.. And so, the casino is fair, is checked up by greater prizes and time. In Goldfishka it is possible to play even in slots (that uncharacteristically enough for me) - payout there at height. Goldfishka - I Recommend all!"

So no more words , just test it :)
