All Slots Online Casino Goes Multi-Lingual
The Jackpot Factory group which runs several online casinos on the internet has announced that its popular All Slots Online Casino site will be going global. Spanish, German, Italian and French speakers will be pleased to note that All Slots will offer games in a localized language environment – allowing them ideal conditions to enjoy over 300 games played off Microgaming’s Viper software platform. All players need to do is to select the language of their choice before downloading the software which should not take longer than 10 minutes.
PokerStars Certified Safe
Poker Stars, a site well known for taking all the necessary precautions to prevent problem gambling, has taken its policy one step further by seeking – and obtaining – certification by the British organization, GamCare. This group addresses the problem of social gambling in the country and promotes a Code of Practice for Remote Gambling, offering certification to any sites that meet their strict criteria. As such, Poker Stars rose to the occasion by making adjustments to its online site in order to implement Gam Care’s code. These changes include an age verification system and a self-exclusion option that can range from 24 hours to as long as 180 days.
New Online Roulette Book Launched
The creator of the Ultimate Roulette System range, Samuel Blankson, has written and launched a book to assist users of his roulette software to play in a more effective way. Blankson, who also wrote ‘How to Win at Online Roulette’ and ‘How to Win at Greyhound Betting’, released the 412-page manual after being approached by users of his online roulette gambling products to pen a guide. The book, entitled “LMT for URS - Loss Management Techniques for the Ultimate Roulette System Range”, will teach players how losses can be reduced by correct money management techniques. The book uses charts and statistics to cover over 100 loss management techniques. Of course, you should get clued up on our roulette rules and odds before starting.
Neteller Starts Repayment Process
After months of anxiously awaiting for news about the $94-million owed to them by the ebanking system, Neteller, US online gamblers sighed a collective sigh of relief when the company announced that was unblocking their funds. The money was frozen after two co-founders of Neteller were arrested in January and charged with illegal online gambling activities and fraudulent conduct. The US Department of Justice reached an agreement with Neteller after the two pleaded guilty to charges laid against them. The money should be released into gamblers’ accounts by the end of next week.
