PokerStars Returns to New Jersey

Yippee Ki Yay poker fans! I’m as excited about this as Bruce Willis was in Die Hard whenever he reached for his machine gun, killing hundreds in the process but without ever catching a single bullet in return. This is how real poker fans in New Jersey must be feeling now – invincible! Read more…

Use PayPal for Online Casino Gambling

PayPal offers tons of advantages when it comes to online casino gambling, but we assume that you already knew that. Here are some of the benefits of using PayPal services: longer life expectancy, makes all your problems disappear, transforms you into looking like Brad Pitt and puts you on the same IQ level as Einstein. Read more…

No More Double Taxation for Bitcoin in Australia

This is probably one of the most compelling stories that revolves around some virtual currency in some far-away land where Mel Gibson rides around in a V8 interceptor chasing other lunatics like him. I haven’t read the whole story, so go ahead and read up on it! Read more…

Tune in to Celebrity Poker Night in America Series!

Murica’ is the home of some of the finest poker players, and the biggest celebrities in the world. They’ve really got the most talented celebrities, although I’m not sure if it’s morally correct to use the words “talented” and “celebrities” in the same sentence, but hey, who am I to question this… when you combine poker with celebrities, you’ve got yourselves an action-packed show – that’s all that counts basically! I’m guessing there might even be a spin-off series, where we’ll see Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger go head to head in battling each other who can say the most intimidating one-liners. Read more…

Money Laundering in the Philippines

This is just another case where a few local blokes form the Philippines and Bangladesh tried to get away with laundering $81 million… We’re assuming that the authorities frowned upon that as they used the wrong detergent when they washed the money. Instead of Persil, they should have opted for Ariel, which is known for “outstanding stain removal in 1 wash!” So, the point of the story is, next time you get some blood on your “hard-earned” cash, make sure to use the proper detergent so your money comes out nice and clean. NOTE: don’t forget to add some fabric conditioner like Lenor, so that you’re money has a soft feel to it… Read more…

Missouri Labels DFS a Gambling Activity!

“Panic Button” Sees Lower Profits for William Hill

Having a so-called “Panic Button” is a really great innovation for online gambling, as it allows gamblers to lock themselves out of their William Hill accounts. This was introduced in efforts to combat problem gambling, as part of their social responsibility agenda. However, like with most things, every upside has a downside. Their profits have suffered in recent times due to the button, since players have regularly shut themselves out. In the words of Sun Tzu, “Nowhere does one go without the prospect of gain.” So we doubt that William Hill will keep the button for much longer, considering their loss in earnings… Read more…

Germany: No to Online Casino, Yes to Online Sports Betting

“Wir mussen gehen zum Disco und spielen mit 99 Luftballons! Ja, naturlich! Wooo hooo!!” Please excuse my poor German, but you get the point, don’t you?? After you’re done with the disco, wager a few sports bets online as Germany is allowing more of that action nowadays and limiting online casino gaming. Read more…

Never-Ending Story of Online Poker in NY

Sorry folks! I really didn’t have the patience to read about NY’s online poker bill again. When the news becomes official, then I’ll be the first one to read about it and compile a whole interpretation of the bill, complete with analyses and charts depicting the future growth of poker in NY.

Come on… is this really a surprise? It has become a cliché for big companies and organizations to often engage in unscrupulous and illegal activities to benefit them. They’ve probably got a dark room full of people working for a penny a day, while they’re selling the services to us for 100 times the costs. But it doesn’t matter, because they’re the best of the best when it comes to online poker; that’s why we gave them a score 9.9/10. For more info, check out the PokerStars Review! Read more…
