This article focuses on
online casinos for players residing outside
the USA. US residents should be aware that online gambling is not currently regulated
at a Federal level and whether they can play online or not will depend on several factors,
not least the laws of their State of residence.
There are many, many online casinos with varying reputations but the good news is that the
industry is a lot cleaner than it once was. Nonetheless, there are still big gaps in the
quality of customer service between even the top online casinos but having played most
at one time or another, below is my experience.
For slots players, finding a safe place to play is clearly paramount, but having a good
range of fair slot games is essential also. This site focuses on online casinos that use
one of the four best casino software providers, although for UK and European players I
would recommend a casino using
Microgaming,
Playtech or
IGT
casino software for 4 reasons: the casinos are generally safe, they are usually licenced in
safe territories, the casino games are fair and the range of slots is very good. You will
see a selection of the best casinos to the right and on each page of the Slotjunkies website.

Online Casinos Using Flash (Apple MAC compatible)
The safest and easiest place to start is with
IGT,
and who make solid and fair casino games
in use by top names like
Virgin,
Grosvenor Casino,
Paddy Power and
Boyles casino.
All of these online casinos pay out fast and have very good reputations,
are licenced in Alderney (which is pretty strict) and have games that run in your
browser rather than requiring a download.
but
USA players are not permitted to sign
up and play at any IGT powered online casino.
Top slots include IGT's
Cleopatra slots
and
Wolf Run.
Below are some of the best IGT slots - click for the video:
While online casinos providing IGT games are exclusively Flash casinos
designed to run in your browser,
Microgaming also offer a Flash option alongside
their download casino. IGT casinos generally have up to about 100 slot
games while Microgaming have over 120 in their Flash client, although the
IGT games are arguably slightly better and more familiar.
Playtech
also licence out Flash slots to a number of good online casinos, but in my opinion
you really need teh download version of Playtech's software to see the really
good slot games.
