Casinomeister's Newsletter

Issue #103
weekly



Dear Readers,

Howdy Spring! What a relief that this winter is officially over! The view from my studio is still in the winter mode, but as soon as there is a sunny day, I'll post another awe-inspiring photo.

As I mentioned last week, this month is Spring Cleaning at Casinomeister. Much of the site is being updated and the most recent is our "Reputable Casino" section; a section that gives you a brief rundown on what it takes to be listed at Casinomeister; it's not easy. Last week the Warning Signs section was updated. If you haven't read this page, you are lacking some choice information when it comes to avoiding the scam artists. There are some evil casinos out there. Find out how to spot them!

Well, back to the Spring Cleaning; I've got a few more sections to whack away.

Whackingly yours,

Bryan

"...perhaps the answer would be for the companies involved to have the award certified by an independent third party audit - but then there would probably be someone saying the audit company was in their pocket. Where does it end?"

Jetset, you're 200% right.

A major accounting firm needs to be involved, and certify that the winnings are legitimate. I may be paranoid, BUT EVEN *I* WOULD NOT ACCUSE A MAJOR ACCOUNTING FIRM being bought off by the software developer. (With the possible exception of Aurthur Andersen.) The accounting firm just needs to verify the transfer of funds from point A to point B, certify that the person receiving the funds is REAL. The accounting firm will then obtain a copy of the player's drivers license or other ID on file as proof.) Also the accounting firm will obtain a copy of the players banking details.

There are a couple of internet lotteries that had thier major prizes certified by KPMG.

So it is absolutely do-able. Why should players take an internet casino's WORD for granted.

We, THE PLAYERS, have been lied to TOO MANY TIMES.

Check out what this is all about here.

5. WHO WILL BE TOPS?

A crystal ball look at the future of interactive gambling

According to a recent "Electronic Gambling" report from Informa Media Group, e-gambling revenue could rise as high as $14.5 billion worldwide by 2006 - only four years away.

Informa believes that by that time, the United States will claim only 24% of e-gambling revenue, whereas Europe will claim 53%. Informa also believes that by 2006, 58% of worldwide electronic gamblers will be in Europe.

eMarketer also posted an article this week by top analyst Ben Macklin on interactive television (iTV) gambling. Macklin presented information from Datamonitor regarding iTV gambling in each region of the world, and predicts that iTV gambling in Europe alone will generate $11.1 billion in revenue by 2006, which is higher than Informa's $7.6 billion estimate of e-gambling in general in the same timeframe.

The bullish predictions were confirmed late in the week when a survey commissioned by Dutch bank ABN Ambro produced impressive gambling revenue predictions for Britain alone of more than two billion pounds sterling within the next decade. The study said money spent on betting via interactive channels, including the Internet, interactive and satellite television, will grow to £2.1bn in 2010 from £588m this year.
