CASINOMEISTER'S ANNUAL AWARDS (AND BRICKBATS) PUBLISHED
Trident is best casino group, and 32 Red best casino...again
The webmaster at Casinomeister.com, Bryan Bailey's annual awards and brickbats are always keenly anticipated by the industry as comments based on a wealth of online gambling information flowing through the leading information portal every day. Many regard the accolades and criticisms as an important guide to what's going on in the industry.
32Red Casino takes the honours for the fourth year in a row for Best Casino of 2006. Bailey, as the administrator and presenter of the awards says in the citation: "It's the people behind the casino. 32Red are trailblazers of transparency in an industry full of secrecy and cloaking devices. Long before it became vogue to go public, 32red made no secret who was behind this well oiled machine. CEO Ed Ware understands not only the day-to-day workings of an online casino, he understands the necessity of player trust. Player trust is indispensable to this industry. Player trust cannot rely solely on a software platform, a licensing jurisdiction, or a stamp of approval - it relies on the activities of the people behind the scenes."
The popular and widely trusted Trident Entertainment Group, which operates the King Neptunes and Trident Lounge online casinos and poker room was awarded the Best Casino Group Award for the second year in a row, with a citation that reads: "Their overseer is truly a no-nonsense operator who will go to the ends of the globe to ensure that her properties are treating players fairly and responsibly. Always on the alert when a player may have an issue, and never reluctant to admit her staff may have made a mistake, players are ensured that they will have fair and honest treatment at the Trident properties. These casinos are rock solid and have earned their position as the Best Casino Group of 2006."
Intercasino received Casinomeisters Milestone Award award for the year as it celebrated its 10 year anniversary in 2006. "I can honestly say that for ten years Intercasino has been constant as a respectable, high-principled, and conscientious online casino, says Bailey. "The online gaming industry is a turbulent one, and Intercasino has weathered every storm it has passed through without skimping on player needs.
But the awards are not all praise. There are the worst of the year awards as well. The Sunny Group received the award for the worst casino group: They were one of the pioneers of the industry - one of the first Microgaming casinos, and in fact awarded the "Best Casino Group" of 2001 here at Casinomeister. But over the past few years, they've slipped into bizzarro-land
Head in the Sand Award 2006
This award is given to operations that seem to rely on the premise if you ignore a problem long enough, it'll go away. This was awarded to the entire industry that failed to prepare for the prohibition minded US legislature. This award goes to every entity that busied itself with spending millions of dollars per month on advertising and stupid marketing gimmicks when they should have been directing their resources on protecting their businesses and their employees.
Other awards include Best Software Supplier, Worst Software Supplier, Worst Player Experience, Stupid Casino Tricks, and more.
