Fake Casino Game

This is our first blackjack game and trainer and I'm proud to finally add our version 2 with enhanced graphics and the ability to learn how to count cards to my website. The game is mostly self-explanatory. If you make an inferior play, the game will warn you first. I recommend that before you play for real money both online in person that you practice on the game until you very rarely are warned you a making an inferior play. If doubling or splitting is mathematically the correct play, but you don't have enough chips, the game will give the best advice for what you can afford to do. Do not change rules mid-hand. If you do, the change will not take effect until the next hand. The advice is based on my own analysis and basic strategy tables for one, two, and four+ decks. The deck(s) is(are) shuffled after every hand.

Casinos for Fake streamers There are some casinos, that work with streamers on a plain fraudulent conditions, offering them non-withdrawable money to play with while broadcasting their game to a viewers, which, essentially, makes these money FAKE.

If you find any bugs, please contact me. A screenshot would be appreciated if you claim the game is misplaying a hand. I get a lot of incorrect reports that the advice given is incorrect. This usually can be explained by the user not using the correct basic strategy for the rules selected. I have also had many comments about the advice on a player 16, composed of 3 or more cards, against a 10. As a rule of thumb, the player should stand in that situation. However, that is a basic strategy exception. The game only knows basic strategy. Also, please note that it is a standard blackjack rule that split aces get one card each. If one of them is a ten, it is not a blackjack, it is just 21 points. That is how blackjack is usually played.

I would like to thank JB for his outstanding work on this game, and Dingo Systems for the cards.

Online Blackjack Bonuses

We constantly maintain a database of all the casino bonuses from the hundreds of online casinos we have reviewed, and we note which bonuses allow blackjack to count towards the wagering requirements. The below table shows a ranked list of the best money online blackjack bonuses, the ranking also takes into consideration wagering requirements, bonus amount offered, the quality of the site and more.

Blackjack Online FAQ

Q1: What are the rules in online blackjack games?

A: As in land casinos, they vary. Online help files are notoriously badly written and incomplete. The Wizard of Odds, we try hard to keep an accurate listing of rules for every brand of software and live dealers. You may find such rules, for every game, in our Software Review section.

Q2: Generally speaking, are the rules better in land or online casinos?

A: All things considered, I would say they are better online. For one thing, you almost never see a blackjack (ace and 10) pay 6 to 5 only online, while this is becoming the norm in land casinos in the United States.

Q3: What are the typical rules at live dealer casinos online?

A: Live dealer rules are very similar to what you would see in a land casino. The typical rules are:

• Eight decks
• Dealer stands on soft 17
• Dealer does NOT peek for blackjack
• No surrender
• Player may double on any two cards
• Player may double after a split
• No re-splitting

Be careful double or splitting if the dealer has a ten or ace showing. At most live dealer brands, you will lose everything if the dealer gets a blackjack. Under this 'no peek' rule, the only time you should put more money out on the table against a potential dealer blackjack is to split two aces against a dealer 10.

The house edge under the rules above is 0.61%.

Q4: When are the cards shuffled in online blackjack?

A: In a fully electronic game, they are probably shuffled after every hand. In a live dealer game, they are usually shuffled about half way through the shoe.

Q5: Oh really?! Even with only 50% penetration, what is to prevent me from counting cards against a live dealer?

A: I've asked this question of some people in the business. Nobody would tell me exactly how they protect their game against counters, but they assured me that they do. If I ran a live dealer casino, I would run a test of every player to see how their bet size is correlated to the true count. Then I would carefully examine the play of such players with a strong correlation.

Q6: How do 'probably fair' casinos accomplish so-called in blackjack?

A: It is rather involved, but here is typically how it is done:

1. The casino will generate a random long string of characters, called a Server Seed, hash it, and give the hashed result to the player BEFORE he makes a bet.
2. The player chooses a string of characters himself, called the Client Seed, or accepts a random default provided by the casino.
3. The client and server seed are combined and hashed.
4. The hashed result from step 3 will be parsed somehow, with the hexadecimal characters converted to base 10 and then mapped to specific cards if in a desired range.
5. The game will deal cards according to their order in the hash from step 3. This hash should be long enough that running out of cards would be almost impossible.
6. After the hand, the casino should reveal the Client Seed, which the player may verify hashes to the result provided before the bet. It is then a tedious process above to do all the math to convert the hash to actual cards, but the player may do that if he wishes.

I go into this in greater depth for a particular brand in my page on Blackjack (Encrypted Version).

Casino Game Dice

Q7: I don't want to bother jumping through all those hoops to verify fairness in an encrypted game. Do you think that just the ability to verify fairness is enough to keep the casinos honest?

A: No. Encrypted or not, a casino could cheat the player in any game, except sports betting, any time they wished. In the case of an encrypted casino, the operator could choose a Server Seed that causes the player to lose after the bet is made. If the player catches them in a hash mismatch, which I think very few players bother to check, the casino can simply ignore the accusation or deny it without comment. This is exactly what happened to me at Wixiplay.

Q8: Your story aside, how common is cheating at blackjack, or any game, online?

A: In my opinion, it is quite rare.

Q9: How can I improve my odds of not being cheated?

A: There are hundreds, perhaps thousands, of Internet casinos out there. In the absence of any serious government regulation, the industry has done a pretty good job of regulating itself. Between legitimate watchdog affiliate sites and some common sense, here are some ways to choose a reputable brand to trust with your hard-earned dollar:

• Read the fine print. Most casinos have a good looking main page, but dig around the more obscure pages like terms & conditions. If you see a lot of spelling and grammatical mistakes, that should set off a red flag.
• Ping customer support. If you can't think of your own question, ask anything, for example, 'Do you accept players from Kyrgyzstan?' See how long it takes for them to reply and measure their professionalism and courtesy of their reply.
• Check reputable affiliate sites. Many affiliate sites promote whoever pays the most, but the good ones are picky about who they promote and will intervene in the unlikely event of a player dispute. We would like to think of ourselves as one of the good ones. A good way to avoid the worst of casinos is to check the blacklists of reputable affiliates.
• Smart small. Players should always bet in moderation anywhere, but especially when opening a new account online with an unfamiliar brand. Dink around with a small deposit and small bets until you have built up some trust.

Q10: Any other words of advice before playing blackjack online?

A: Whether playing online or in a land casino, use the appropriate basic strategy for the rules offered. The Wizard of Odds blackjack strategy calculator will give the correct basic strategy for almost any set of rules.
A much greater problem than outright cheating is online casinos faulting players on a technicality in the rules and seizing whatever funds they deem appropriate. This is a particularly a problem with bonuses. The terms and conditions for bonuses can be pages long and very restrictive in terms of allowed games, bet sizes, and types of bets. If the player loses, nobody ever checks, but after a win and withdrawal request, suddenly the play may be subject to careful review for compliance. Never assume that because you were invited to play a bonus via Email that you're eligible for it. Casinos typically blast everybody in their list. An easy rule to overlook is when a bonus is eligible for 'new money' only. Don't expect the casino to enforce this rule when entering a couple code, but do expect it when you actually make a withdrawal and they look for any reason to deny it.
While bonuses can make your money last much longer and increase your chances of winning, they are a minefield in terms of compliance. Read the rules carefully. If in doubt the way you play is compliant, then don't ask for the bonus in the first place.

Three rogue casino sites may have been caught red-handed with their hands in the cookie jar, complete with pirated games and at least one fake license.

Latest Casino Bonuses (LCB.org) received word from numerous players that something didn’t quite seem right at two relatively new online casinos. The good people at LCB decided to take a closer look and what they found is, sadly, not at all shocking given the internet’s long history of dubious gaming operators.

Casino60.com, Casino29.com and CasinoMGA.com are our three prime suspects in a scheme involving fake games and questionable licenses. Players beware: both sites look extremely questionable and should be avoided when there are so many other proven options out there.

Even if you have never played at any of these casinos and has no plans to do so, this post makes for an interesting read. And if you follow along, you’ll see how you too can spot pirated games no matter how well-designed they may look.

Casino60.com and Casino29.com: Iffy License and Pirated Games

In a post published yesterday detailing its findings, LCB took a close look at Casino60.com in particular and found two major red flags. LBC also noted that Casino29.com appears to be related, and I did some poking around there myself and have come to the same conclusion: both online casinos do not look legitimate.

Casino29.com definitely appears to be connected to Casino60.com – probably run by the same group. The “About Us” pages on both casino websites are nearly identical and both explain that each casino is operated by “SME S.R.L. which holds a gaming license from Costa Rica.”

Questionable License

One obvious red flag found at both casinos is they claim to hold a gaming license from Costa Rica. That’s a bit of a problem because Costa Rica is not exactly known as a reputable licensing jurisdiction for online gambling because the country has no regulatory body whatsoever to even oversees gaming sites.

All a license from Costa Rica means is someone paid a fee for a “data processing license” at some point in order to run the business out of Costa Rica. Not all sites based out of Costa Rica are automatically scams (some Costa Rican sites do have positive track records), but extra care definitely needs to be taken when a site boasts this license because there is no regulatory oversight.

Pirated Games

A Costa Rican license is one thing, but that alone would not be enough to warrant the serious accusations levied by LCB. The truly damming evidence has to do with the games themselves that are offered at both online casinos.

LCB noted that it has received numerous messages from players who noticed something was off with the games offered at Casino60. The players said the games were “full of glitches” and behaved “very strangely” when compared to those same games offered by other mainstream casino sites.

A closer look at the games offered at Casino60 reveals they are most likely pirated games, not authorized by the gaming companies whose logos adorn those games. Before we dig into the nuts and bolts of this, let’s take a step back and consider how software providers such as NetEnt protect the integrity of the games they release.

Casino game providers such as NetEnt build online slots from scratch and then lease those games only to specifically-authorized casino sites and select gaming platforms. Casino software providers have an incentive (and usually a legal obligation) to ensure their games run properly, are truly random and so on. Otherwise, they would lose the trust of players and suffer a serious image problem.

One of the key points to ensuring the integrity of games developed by well-known developers such as NetEnt is to ensure their games cannot be altered so as to change payout rates or the odds of winning.

This can be accomplished by the casino software developer hosting the games on its own servers and then allowing gambling sites to access those games, as opposed to simply giving the casino the source code of the software (which could then be manipulated by the casino).

That brings us to a serious problem found with Casino60.com. LCB looked into some NetEnt titles available at Casino60 and found that those games are self-hosted. The problem is that real NetEnt games are hosted on a unique server not controlled by the

For example, if you visit a trusted online casino such as Unibet Casino, access a NetEnt game and then use your browser’s built-in inspector tool (right click -> inspect element on Firefox) to see where that game is hosted, you’ll see that the source location of the game is casinomodule.com, which is a well-known server used by NetEnt to deliver games to customers’ computers.

Note that NetEnt does not allow its clients to host its games on their own servers! NetEnt hosts all games on its own, specially-designated servers. Any online casino hosting NetEnt games on its own internal servers is running pirated games.

The screenshot below is from Unibet Casino and you can see the source code shows the game is hosted at casinomodule.com. That means everything is working as it should – this game is legit as we would expect from Unibet.

Legit game from Unibet:

And now, let’s take a look at that same game offered at Casino60.com. Below, we can see the source address of the same game. Rather than being hosted at casinomodule.com as it should be, the following game is self-hosted on the Casino60 website. I ran the same test at Casino29.com and found the same result: self-hosted games.

Suspected pirated game from Casino60:

To summarize: casino games from trusted software providers should not be hosted internally by individual online casinos. The software provider must host the games on its own servers to retain control over its own games. Otherwise, the games can be altered by unscrupulous casino sites.

Avoid Casino60.com and Casino29.com.

CasinoMGA.com: Fake License and Pirated Games

In a separate post published yesterday, LCB shed the light on yet another rogue casino that should be avoided by all players. In this casino, we have CasinoMGA.com. From the very beginning, there were issues with this casino starting with the name.

The inclusion of the letters “MGA” almost make it seem as though this casino is trying to pass itself off as something authorized by the well-known Malta Gaming Authority licensing jurisdiction. Whether that was their intention or not, this is a minor issue compared to what else CasinoMGA.com has been up to.

CasinoMGA and Its Fake License

LCB caught CasinoMGA.com red-handed trying to pass itself off as licensing by Curacao eGaming. Up until recently, Casino MGA had a logo of the Curacao eGaming authority. LCB discovered that not only is Casino MGA definitely not licensed by Curacao, but the license it did have posted on its website was actually for a totally different online casino.

Sometime between yesterday’s LCB investigation and this post today, Casino MGA has removed the Curacao eGaming logo from its website. It seems CasinoMGA.com knows it has been caught red-handed and is now working to hide the evidence.

Unfortunately for CasinoMGA, LCB took screenshots of the homepage to show their attempted deception. The internet has a long memory…

More Pirated Games

We won’t go through the whole process all over again, but LCB ran the same tests for pirated games at CasinoMGA.com and found compelling evidence that CasinoMGA is also running pirated games from a number of mainstream software developers.

These games look and function almost exactly like the real thing. Some eagle-eyed players noticed minor oddities with the pirated games, but a typical recreational player would have a very difficult time noticing anything was wrong with these games.

The CasinoMGA games may look and feel very real, but they are hosted on their own servers. That means the casino itself can adjust the game in any way it wishes without the authorization of NetEnt. And let me tell you this – CasinoMGA doesn’t go through all the trouble of pirating games so it can increase your odds of winning.

One other thing LCB found that’s worth noting is that some of the fake NetEnt games found at CasinoMGA.com are hosted on servers purposely named to look like the real thing. For example, LBC found a pirated version of Starburst hosted at casinomodules.com. The problem is that extra “s” at the end should not be there – the official NetEnt games server is casinomodule.com.

What Can We Learn from This?

It pays to do your homework. We always recommend players stick with our trusted casino recommendations, but we also know that sometimes you just want something totally different or need a new bonus, which means sometimes expanding out to newer casino sites that are not as well-known.

Whatever the case, it’s always a good idea to do a little research. Running the names of any of the casinos discussed today would have yielded few search results from reputable casino information websites. That would be a red flag that should prompt further research.

Additionally, remember that you can always check for yourself if you suspect a casino is running pirated games. Firefox and Chrome both come with built-in web developer tools that you can use to see where the games are hosted. All you have to do is right click anywhere on the page where the game is found and select “inspect element.”

Doing so will open a window in which you see all sorts of code. It looks like a big mess, but all you’re looking for is a source for the game as we did in the screenshots above. Once you’ve found where the game is hosted, you can run a search online to see if that’s the official server for that particular game.

Hint: If all you’re seeing is a partial URL, it’s probably because the game is self-hosted, which is bad news. If you go back up and look at our screenshot from Casino60, you’ll see that only a partial URL is given in the element inspector window. That’s because web developer tools cut off the beginning of the URL if it’s an internal link. Compare that to the Unibet screenshot where the URL is pointing to an outside address starting with “https.”

And last but not least – if you can’t tell if a casino is safe and you can’t find information online, it is better to play it safe and move on to the next casino site. There are thousands of other online casinos that would be more than happy to have your business.
