Ok so one of the things that makes online gambling great is the simplicity, some other good sides are.

• Most online casinos offer Vegas odds or better, and you don’t have to tip anyone. • No need to rush anything online, you set your own pace for all the games.

Getting started

Before you find yourself an online casino you need an e-mail. You can get free e-mails at hotmail.com or yahoo.com. To find an online casino you should have a look at the Pipbet games directory, this directory makes it easy to find an online casino that has your favourite game.

Downloading the software

After you find an online casino you like it is time to decide wither you would like to play the games directly in the Internet browser or download the games to your computer. When you download the games they normally have better graphics, speed and sound.

Downloading and playing the games is easy, you download a file from the online casino, browse around the casino homepage and you should find a button or text saying "Download" or something similar click it and follow the instructions.

Remember where you save the file you just downloaded; usually there is an icon on the desktop once the download is completed. Double click the icon and follow the instructions, you should end up with a player account.

Internet banking

Once you have a player account for real money you can fund it by logging in and click on the banking section. This is where you deposit and withdraw all the money to and from your casino account. It works much like a bank account, you can leave money in the account it will not disappear. More about banking methods

Most casinos have welcome bonuses for new players, something like a 100% match bonus on the first deposit up to a maximum of $100, or high roller bonuses like 20% match bonus up to $200. But with the bonus money there are wagering requirements meaning you have to bet a certain amount before you can withdraw the money in you account.
Usually there are restrictions to what games you can play when you are playing for a bonus, games like Craps, Roulette and Baccarat are excluded sometimes even Blackjack and Video Poker.

Are online casinos fair and honest?

Generally speaking, yes. Legitimate casinos does not need to operate fixed games to make a profit. Just like in a land based casino there is enough profit built-in with the house edge and player mistakes.

If you still are skeptic about online gambling I suggest you choose a casino like Lasseters (Australia's and the world's first fully regulated and licensed internet casino) Go to Lasseters online casino.
