    Player Preferred is an offshoot of OGS. Some of the same games from Lasseters are online at Giant Palace, but PP has their own exclusive games which (I believe) are developed specifically for them. There are about 7 waiting for release and 2 new recently.

    As far as payments/cashouts - everyone I have talked to has had their cashouts paid on time and within typical (by todays standards) timeframes. That is about 3-4 days for wire, not sure about the rest as I have not talked to individuals using Neteller or other.

    I do promote them and ONLY because they have paid all players on time for many months now. After the Hype and InChilli debaucle (yes, I lost money at them as player as well), I removed all PP casinos from my sites until Giant Palace established themselves as the only PP casino that is trustworthy enough to play at.

    Now- with that said, of course as always when there are past issues - proceed with caution.

    Let me know if there is a cashout issue and I will definitely not only do my best to help - but will remove them from all websites pending payment.

    Interesting, if you go over the link ogsltd.com and push the partners link Giant-Palace, the Website shows you with more details as you can see, if you scribe directly the Website.

    It seems that they are all entangle together

    These largely Australian developments seem to be dynamic and can be confusing due to a lack of transparency on ownerships.

    I would advise that you search the archives here at Casinomeister for a wealth of background on these operations....and as KK says, there has been a very disturbing historical lack of integrity in issues involving Player Preferred software. There were indications that these operations were underfunded from the get-go, and that left both players and affiliates shafted.

    I don't think OGS has any ownership connection to Player Preferred, which sprung into focus early this year as a turnkey provider with Hype, Inchilli and later Giant Palace casinos. PP was run by a guy called David Ohlson (an ex-Lasseters employee who would therefore have had some contact with OGS), with support and payments through Firebrand Interactive, an outfit headed by David Jenkins.

    There were strong indications that Inchilli was owned by a questionable industry character Downunder called Tom Dick, but it seemed that Dick ditched the PP branded casino, which Ohlson and Jenkins continued to run....I lost track of what happened to it after that.

    Then there was the hassle with Hype Casino, which was owned by another Aussie partnership. This ran into financial trouble and the partners couldn't agree a solution and went their seperate ways, with one promising that the players would not be left unpaid....I don't know whether that promise was kept. There was some talk of litigation, but I can't remember the detail.

    Another Australian called Brian Goodman was reputed to be behind Giant Palace through his Giant Vegas or Magic Vegas group. He had previously owned RTG casinos like Kiss, Giant Slots and Giant Vegas until they had a big falling out which led to legal exchanges, the outcome of which was not publicised. I was led to believe that Goodman's PP-powered Giant Palace didn't fly and the deal fell through after only a short time. The last I heard was that Goodman had hooked up with Playtech on Giant Vegas.

    BTW Lasseters is now on the Orbis Openbet platform.

    The OGS site shows the following as software licensees:

    Lasseters Ausvegas Casino

    338a Casino

    Fortune888 Casino

    Giantpalace Casino

    Invitationonlycasino Casino

    Inchillicasino Casino

    Given the sorry-ass historical record of Player Preferred and the men behind it, OGS would be well advised to make clear their relationship with PP in order to stay clean IMO.

    Certainly, players need to at the very least heed KWBlue's caution to exercise great care before depositing money with operations that have any connection with Player Preferred - the track record is abysmal to put it mildly.

    I did sign up for this casino last year when they first opened. One thing that got me right off the bat was, some of their support contacts on their home page were marked Giant Vegas and not Giant palace. After contacting them to ask why and are they connected to Giant vegas, they denied they were and within a few days the links were changed.

    I did still play there a few times "I Like the software" support was alright and they had some nice bonuses. Quit after a few deposits just wasn't sure why they denied being connected to Giant vegas when the support links were on their site. I quess that was what you call an OOp's

    Either way haven't been back since.

    Their support is either really fast or really slow, depending upon the time you catch them at it seems. I have always been disappointed with their support when it comes to offline email support.

    Their inside casino support is ok, but then again... you have to have the software installed to get support.

    Here is another email addy you can try:

    affmgr **AT** giantpalace.com

    See if you can get help using that email address.
