Does anyone use them?

Good/bad experiences?

I use betfair casino if im bored between football/tennis bets to try and win but nothing serious. I know many people have 'systems' for roulette which is impossible and will never work. I just find it funny that if you 'play for fun' on blackjack you always get 18/19/20 etc but as soon as you play for money you always get 14/15/16........whats all that about? I know they are all audited but something is obviously wrong.

I play a lot of online poker (mostly use pokerstars), I'd never play huge cash hands as there is always a fear that I have that it is fixed, but good site/program and good fun if you like poker. A lot of users obviously so something for everyone.

I mostly play poker too, I use the Coral website although I have accounts with betfair, ladbrookes and bet365 too mainly for the introductory offers.

I use a budget and stick too it because once you start losing and going in the red, it isn't fun anymore. I've been playing much more since been laid up with my knee injury and gamble on various sports. Latest winner was having the Penguins to win in 7 in the Stanley Cup! I've won a lot but also lost a fair bit but so far this year I'm up about a grand.

Seen on the news a couple from Bolton won almost 25 Million on the Euro millions. My old man said "Well, you can't even buy a football player with that these days." Tongue in cheek obviously!

I play poker and don;'t worry too much about it being fixed because the house site is earning through the Rake and the Buy-In regardless of who wins the actual hands.

However I would imagine most Online-Casino games to be like fruit machines in pubs - keep it entertaining for you but ultimately it knows whether it is going to pay out on the next hand / spin / whatever before you press the button to play it. I suppose if you like playing the roulette games you get in Bookies you'd love them. Personally I steer clear.
