Ontario operators? (Licensed)

I logged in to PlayOlg's website today and had to agree to a new terms & conditions. I also noticed a Casino bonus which I haven't see on their site in years. I am assuming this is their way of "competing" against other Casinos that will start next month....either that or maybe to compete they will have bonuses like that every once in a while now.
 
For 15 years 99% of my gambling has been online but in the last few months, I have been going to Fallsview. Online was so much fun a few years back but I can't say that today. One day you're playing Netent next day gone then back then gone again, promises for 3 or 4 years were getting BTG etc and just here excuse after excuse. Very little is related to players. Just recently received SOW fromPlayojo with a list of requested documents and no way I'm giving that personal info. They want 3 months of bank statements showing all money coming in and going out etc plus a list of other documents etc Im a VIP there but I don't give a crap anymore.

I sure hope when this rolls out in April it's a plus for us in Ontario but I have to say I have been enjoying going back to land-based casinos well at least Fallsview. Just last weekend had a corner Fallsview room comped plus $150 in slot play and free shows and meal credits. Have another free room for the 6th of April and the last weekend of April and honestly I have not gambled a lot to receive these comps. Feels good to be appreciated even if it's a marketing tool. Online been going to the dogs for some time but fingers are crossed for April 4th but I don't think it's going to be good as they say it is.

I was hoping to go to Fallsview 1st week of June which is my Birthday but not sure and maybe wait till Sept. Defo not giving up going to locals cause this is coming. :)

Nothing beats the live ambience of the casino. Hope you get to go. They have added many square feet with about 1000 more slots. In the center, they added a bar/lounge area with tons of seating which is great for someone waiting for some who is playing and you don't need to purchase a drink to hang out there. Fallsview casino has taken over some of the stores in the mall area and expanded they also added a new casino on the top floor but reserved for their big players.
Fallsview is run by Mohegan Sun much better than the operators of casino Rama etc. Don't bother with the new Pickering casino it sucks just looks like a big warehouse.
 
YAY! I think,lol. Don't want to bombard with questions but are we keeping our level status and everything?

I'm not so involved in this project, but your status at VS is unlikely to change if its not a requirement from Ontario itself. I do know that VS need to do new integrations to the game providers, so you might lose your status with them (but I dont know this for sure). But that happened in other places like Sweden as an example.
 
I have some good news to report regarding BTG. Straight from Nik @BTG

"April 4th is a Big Day, after holding back from the Canadian market (apart from BC) we will be launching our entire Catalog"

:cheerleader::cheerleader::lolup::lolup::cheers::cheers::cheerleader::cheerleader::thumbsup::thumbsup::cheerleader::cheerleader::xxx::xxx::xxx::xxx:
Circle back to that when you've had a run at their potential ;)

If this is the case, I think this was supposed to happen late last year but the government pushed the date to April 4th for regulation so it sounds and looks like BTG was waiting for regulations to start.
 
So far the plan is I have GGpoker account already for the wsop.ca, of course, have playolg, and whenever videoslots is set up and running and betsafe.

I am looking at BetMGM and 1 other to maybe sign up for.

As for playing it depends and wait to see what each one is offering and when so it's hard to say. Either have to do a bigger deposit for one site or split up bankroll/deposit and play on 2 sites at the same time like mentioned above or at separate times. Probably won't be much playing Monday and just getting accounts set up I would think and maybe more/hopefully the following weekend will be playing. :)
 
Is it April 4th yet? Or whenever everything is going live, LOL. It feels like Christmas waiting for Christmas morning back in the childhood days.:D
we...spunked..more than we would have normally today, fearing, we might have a wait period to play online again (where we play) after the 4th :p
 
Oh no! @dionysus :(
I was thinking the same thing to be honest, wondering if we will have any place at all to Play over the weekend.
I contacted SIA, they will still be available so I’m guessing any Kahnawake will still be available to play at.

Still no e-mails from any N1/Dama/Rootz casinos and even nothing from Rizk yet, so there is still hope.

I think, right now, we are all hinging on hope and wishes and dreams
(gods, it's ON, I'm fearing every last place will be lowest possible RTP) :(

I got an email from 32red, no longer allowed as of April 4th, and got to get any money out before then as well.
 
Well Bitstarz CS said it's business as usual, and you are correct lots of places didnt bother notifying us, so i hope its not just some switch flip at midnight that does us in.
like above, didnt even know Mark had us outted til I posted
Gonna be some scary days next week :(
 
I palyed this week...sadly, more heavily than normal - figuring in 4 days....where to play? (ie, dep, win, run)
i found myself make three deposits at the OLG. Im the opposite, im afraid to get a wd tied up in some excluded bs, lol. All three deposits were to play the one BTG game they have. They took away autoplay, and now I havent bonused in $150 of deposits, at 0.60 a spin. Oh and the fun part is every 5 minutes it thought my location was off, so had to re start the abuse. LOL No new titles in a few weeks there OLG>

I was actually going to deposit today myself.:eek:
 
One thing is for sure. OLG is SCREWED on Monday. There is absolutely no way they will add all of the slots that have the Ontario license. They will fall so far behind the competition.
Maybe I'll contact OLG live chat again so they can say "I don't see any information regarding new games or providers being added" :lolup: Should be a drinking game by now.
 
On the West Coast here BC; things tend to have a knock on effect - this Ontario things that is going on; this happening in Ont -Fed ruling ; or in Ont Provincial ruling / Licensing
And anybody got a clue if this is getting rolled out cross Canada ? More specifically. BC ?

Got this from Pokerstars:
You might have heard that online poker is set to change in Ontario, but we aren’t… just yet.

We’re currently working closely with the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) and expect to make a license announcement soon. In the meantime, there’s no need to do anything on your side. Just continue to play as you are. It’s business as usual.

Don’t forget about the upcoming Spring Championship of Online Poker and all the other poker action we have to offer here at PokerStars.

When there’s any updates, we’ll be in touch.

I find that kind of strange as from what I understand iGaming Ontario could blackmail a company's ability to join the regulated market if they continue operation. I'm guessing they must be trying to make a deal with them and got their ok to continue until a deal is struck.

For those trying to stay busy with other licenses keep in mind something like sportsinteraction is still available and they have a good amount of games although I can't understand why some of their games are in the casino tab and some in the games tab...wish they would just combine those two together....if you search for a game you need to search both tabs if your not sure which one it's in.

I also received another 2 emails last night this time from Casino Cruise and Casino Joy
 
Genesis global banned us all too. Oh what a shame. High wager and low rtp and lengthy wait times to get paid. If anything they did our people a favor lol.

I see 3 White hat gaming are getting our license Casimba, Dream Vegas and Jackpot Village. Which is very nice to see. Very reputable casino platform all on high rtp.

Shame about L&L. They are one of the best operated groups on the internet with fantastic people from management right through to chat agents. We never did experience full potential with them or even close because of lack of providers but what they did offer was still worth playing with them. They are one of the very FEW groups I felt 100% comfortable with getting paid if I ever hit massive and I know that sentiment is shared amongst all other players. I know they have some people upset about their verification process but at least they are by the book if anything. I would rather that than a group who doesnt show professionalism. They seriously have some of the best people Ive ever spoken with in all my years. Right from @L&L-Jan to Kevin to Abby and numerous others. Just a really great group all around. I think they will be one of the best casino groups where most people will play over the next decade or so. They have so much potential with a great group behind them. I see only success for them all.

And I see some people are excited about BTG. Careful what you wish for :p

Im not sure whats going on with dama/n1 but I did get an email from hollycorn nv about term changes and I read them and we are included in not being able to take welcome offers. So not sure if that means we're going to be banned on all these networks or what.

There is much more to life than playing slots. SO I am fine with whatever happens. One thing is for certain. EVERYTHING changes over time and we adapt and roll with the punches.
 

Due to gambling regulations in Canada, we have to close down our site services for players from the Ontario province. Such players will not be able to deposit, play or open the CasinoJEFE site as of 4th April 2022. Please withdraw the funds you may have on your account not later than that day. If you still have a balance on your account and wish to make a withdrawal after that day, please contact us.
Sincerely yours,
CasinoJEFE.
 
I was sorry to receive a farewell from Omni Casino. I wanted to tag the rep and could not find one? Had a change in my income when my friend and tenant died. This is the first since Xmas I've had some extra funds to play with, and I had budgeted a deposit fo the weekend. They had already closed my account :( since I had no balance, but they are closing to Ontario. Well, I would rather that than end up with a delayed withdrawal.
 
"And I see some people are excited about BTG. Careful what you wish for :p", TAKE MY MONEY PLEASE! Words cannot describe the warm and fuzzy feeling i get whilst playing DHV and Lil Devil. Hoping White Rabbit is still around too, though i heard that title went away for some reason.
Honestly any of the classics I used to play some of the nights i went out to the local casino that are either no longer available at the Casino or that i'm just too lazy to drive to play
 
I was wondering about pokerstars, ty!
I am mulling over playing poker again so took a look around PokerStars, it's different a bit that's for sure. I use to play sit n go's and small mtt in the evening and weekends with larger tournaments on the weekend. I see antes start right away so not use to that and what the strategy is.

I observed a table and called both players hands, one guy raised and I said he has shit, the guy who called I said he has 2 face cards and I was right on both when it came to showdown, LOL:p
 
Spin Riders bid adieu to me today. I only made two deposits there but one led to a sizeable cashout.

Anyway, what time on April 4 does the madness begin? Midnight?
That's what I was wondering, I may check quickly at Midnight as will be up cause of Wrestlemania, but am off Monday so will see if anything is live or able to register and set up sites at least.

I just checked out Dream Vegas, nice looking with every provider under the sun. BUT it is very sketchy terms and conditions, if you win at least $100,000 they can take up to 10 months to pay. Also, I can't see the withdrawal methods.

Today, 11 more operators have gotten a license, Relax gaming got one today to provide their slots, and blueprint gaming (even though we have a few of them on olg) can offer over 50 of their slots now to us!

Ive never come close to winning 100,000 but taking 10 months would suck to wait. Biggest cashout I had from them was 4k and I was paid in their normal time frame. Rest of their terms are great. After the welcome bonus it a fair 35x wager the bonus. Great group and trusting too
 
Just to let you guys know, if you want to try out or just get warmed up on BTG titles, you can play them for fun on Relax gaming website. :) Diamond fruits is low-paying trash, I will stick with and how much I miss OPAL FRUITS!

I got a whole 3x free spins win on Wild Flower, @bruinsdude lied and his bruins team needs a good ass kicking.:p Awkward that he is a bruinsdude and I kinda work for the Toronto Maple Leafs, LOL

Only in these forums can a Bruins, a Leaf and a habs (sorry guys lol) fan can get along :)
 
Not sure if this is new, but OLG now lists a "Net Position" on your screen as you play.
Unsure how i feel about this, and am wondering if this is part of the new world order in Ontario.
Would be crappy if this populates prior to a bonus round, telling you how much youve won. It already spoiled a 15X payout, prior to the spin playing out.
Net Position.webp

i believe i read a net position had to be put in place for all casinos and if that's really the case i will be adding a digital post it note that can stay on top of running windows so i dont see it. of course this wont help me if i'm playing on my phone though although there are apps that can draw on top so i could also in theory find one that can hide part of the screen (at least on android)...but thats just annoying

Just tried to register for draftkings, I hope they can/will be transferring the account to the Ontario one as right now it is looking like for the American site. They already verified my documents in under an hour though! So hopefully will be set up when they go live. Just Bet MGM and where I am set up already for now but it's hard to say as have to see what is going to be live and when.

Also if they have some rewards and what the RTP is set at.
 
Unibet has a sick amount of slots! Like 37 BTG including QUEEN OF RICHES! and 83 Blueprint slots! If they are live for us is another thing as they daid it's going to be a whole other website and my unibet account got deactivated as I have not played there for a very long time so they told me today I will have to make a new account after April 4th. :( So it's going to be a few days before my account is set up there to see.

I read somewhere that Unibet weren't going to be ready for April 4th and would be launching April 11th. I would still recommend having a look on the 4th but don't be surprised if it does take a few days.
 
Looks like this is affecting casinos with the Kahnwake license already. I didn't realize their provider had to have an iGaming Ontario license (it doesn't affect their Casino tab so they still have games but this takes a lot of games out).

I received an email from Sports Interaction stating the following:
"We noticed you’ve enjoyed our “Games” and Virtual Sports section this year and we thought this information would be important to you.

You may have heard some buzz around Ontario launching their regulated iGaming market starting on April 4, 2022.

Sports Interaction has its application in and will continue to operate business as usual, with the exception of the “Games” and Virtual Sports section, regrettably.

Our Games and Virtual Sports provider has opted out of applying for their own licence within the Ontario market for the moment.

We’ve got your back, and we’re diligently working on solutions to increase our Casino offerings beyond the current 500+ options currently offered, in the medium term.

After Sunday, 11:59 pm EDT, you will no longer be play in the Games section or bet on Virtual Sports. Our suggestion is to not initiate any play that will run past April 3 for these sections.

Our Customer Service team will be available to access your historical transactions in those areas if needed.

Feel free to reach out to our Customer Service Team 24/7. We appreciate this news may have come as a surprise to you and wanted to be as transparent as possible."
