My view on a new casino:
Has real world presence, such as Ladbrokes: should be safe
Software - Wagerworks: safe, Playtech: maybe, RTG: probably not, Microgaming: probably ok, Cryptologic: safe, Chartwell: maybe
Jurisdiction - Costa Rica: crooks, Alderney/Gibraltar/Isle Of Man: safe, Malta/Kahnawake/Antiuga: makes no difference
Word of mouth doesn't do that much for me, as new casinos can go bad overnight if they're losing money. OTOH, if I saw they were licensed in a reputable jurisdiction (i.e. the Channel Islands/Isle Of Man), that would satisfy me completely.
