Simon’s Online Casino Blog
I’m Simon, and you are on Simon’s Casino Blog. All of the content on my online gambling sites are dedicated to providing valuable, impartial and useful information to all online players.
Whether you are a professional gambler with years of experience, or you are new to online gambling, you will find something useful and interesting here. This website has been focusing on the different aspects of online gambling since 2012.
A bit about myself: I’m Simon, and I’m the author of Simon’s Online Gambling Blog. I started playing online in 2006, back in college. The world of online gambling was quite different back then, more rogue casinos and less gambling regulations. We have come a long way since then.
However, that environment was perfect for online professional gamblers using advantage gambling techniques. I was one of those guys. I made around $10 000 in total playing online (which was quite a lot of money back then, in Eastern Europe). It helped me pay for college.(since then I have made much more than that.)
“Online casino bonus whoring” – as it was called (one of the many ways to take advantage of online casino), got less profitable after I was banned from over 200 online casinos, so I took a break from online gambling, finished college, got an office job, you know, the works. However, after a long hiatus I returned to the online gambling scene, this time as an online gambling blogger (and as a player as well of course). For two years I blogged only on the weekends and not many people took notice. However, over the years, my casino gambling blog gained some momentum.
What can you do at Simon’s online casino gambling blog:
- play games, check the casino games section
- learn to play like a professional with out advantage gambling guide
- read about the legal status of gambling in your country
- check out safe online casinos to play in, online casinos sorted by country
- check out the latest casino bonuses
- Check out casino reviews of the top US and European casinos (coming soon, I’m currently redoing that section, so I took it down temporarily)
Thank you very much for visiting my website! Keep in mind this is my personal small gambling blog, it’s just me, there is no huge company behind, no team, just one person. I try to do my best to update everything. If you have a question drop a comment, I answer it if I have time.
If you would like to easily access this website later, don’t forget to bookmark it. /There is no social media page anymore after I was banned from Twitter (gambling is apparently not welcome on Twitter, despite every online casino having a presence there, go figure…), and since Facebook made it so that you have to “””boost””” your posts in your own Facebook page, which means every time you post within your own website’s Facebook page you have to pay $15 to Facebook otherwise less than 10% of your followers will see your post…., I”m done with greedy unethical social media, and I advise you to do the same, (and don’t even get me started on the privacy issues, they are bad enough even without all that). There are no newsletters as well, most, almost all email providers filter them out, because they are from a gambling blog and contain gambling keywords, so I stopped that as well, bookmarking the website is really the best way to save it for later if you are so inclined and you would like to revisit it at one point./
If you have any questions regarding online gambling please ask them in the comments section of the appropriate webpage. I try to answer if I have the time.
Unrelated to gambling, but permit me to mention it here:
Please use https://www.ecosia.org/ search engine instead of Google. Unless you live under a rock you are probably well aware of how evil, unethical and problematic the giga-corporation that is Google (technically Alphabet, the umbrella company that owns Google and all their other subsidiaries and offshore companies). Tax evasion, offshore money laundering, election meddling, privacy issues, lies, constant surveillance for the US secret service NSA etc.. just look around online if you have doubts and don’t believe me. Do you really want to support that by using their search engine? Don’t! Use https://www.ecosia.org instead, they use the income generated from advertising (just like the G-word) but instead of enriching shareholders and influencing elections they use it for planting trees worldwide and other environmental, eco-friendly initiatives. Make a change, by actually not changing that much, just using a different search engine. Thank you. (And please stop using Google chrome as well, unless you want Google and the American government, and secret service to always know your location, your search history and have all your passwords… Try Opera, it’s actually better, and has just as many plugins.)

Good luck, gamble responsibly,

Guys on forums say there is no working roulette system, you
can’t beat it in the long run, but i’m using bluehand roulette
system for weeks and it earns me decent money everyday, maybe couple
of weeks is not a long run, maybe i am lucky
Yes, you are “just” lucky.(Congratulations! btw.)
There is no working Roulette system.
The only way to make money playing Roulette is the advantage gambling method called “wheel bias” (wheel bias is not a Roulette system and it only works offline or at a live casino).
You can find it here: Make money gambling with advantage gambling methods
There is no such thing as a working system. You’re probably just lucky. I have tried systems for NetEnt slots & roulette and it just doesn’t work.
@Simon I love your blog man keep it up
Agreed, I have tried several “strategies” all the only result was lost money. Hope your luck continues tho. Simon, Great post man,.you must be a sorcerer or something
These are some great tips, thank you. It’s very annoying that most reviews are fake, it’s hard to find the best websites. – thank you!
From online slots I prefer “Cool Wolf”. Amazing machine and lucky as hell. Also, there is a pattern, which lead to exploit.
I can assure you that there is no such pattern. The guys at Microgaming -it’s a Microgaming slot- know what they are doing.
You can find this slot here (among other free-to-play slots): http://simonsblogpark.com/onlinegambling/simons-free-casino-free-slots/
simon , i would think with any online casino the amount of players registered playing would be of significant importance to larger cash prizes. these seem to be very guarded secrets any estimates for spin palace casino?
Only in case of progressive jackpots. But those are not closely guarded secrets at all.
Just check out the progressive slots and you will see the current amount of the progressive jackpot (last time I checked, the highest one was around $2 million).
It’s hard to open an online casino ?
Yes, it is very hard and costs a lot of money.
Well there are so called “turnkey casinos” , which you can open if you pay something between $5000 and $10000 for licensing and setup fees.
But turnkey casino games are far worse quality than the mayor casino gambling software providers and will be very hard to market such a casino.
What a great blog. We need more of this ethical approach of online Casinos. We have a dedicated page about the risks of gambling and addiction for the individual. We also can assure our gamers that the payment systems are 100% ethical and safe. Our site is protected by the lastest hacker protection. We want our users who play games online to be totally focused on the game and not distracted with concerns that they could be on a site without security.
Thank you, Simon for publishing this interresting blog for us. This article of yours would help many casino novice to learn about the gambling world and guide then in chosing online casino website wisely.
Great job on this guide. its very good and informative.
These are great tips. I’ll be sure to pick up my freespins, and turn them into shiny dollars.
Great blog, I did not know anything about next-gen casinos. They sound great. I’m only going to play in next-gen casinos from now on, too bad they are so rare.
Thanks
Thanks! Appreciated.
Next-gen casinos are indeed the best. The reason why they are so rare is because each casino software provider accepts players from different countries.
It’s really hard for online casinos to put together a good selection of casino games from different casino software providers and still be able to accept players from most countries.
/This is exactly why there is only one US next gen casino./
This is a bit complicated topic, but my next-gen casino guide is already under construction. You will be able find the details there, will link to it here as soon as it is published.
Hey! Simon,
Thanks for the information. I have just started getting into gambling and trying to understand the online casino landscape and what type of online casinos there are.
I’m writing a blog on the online gambling industry and the involvement of IT (safety, security, software, mobile compatibility) in the industry. This helped me a lot.
Thanks.
Great guide, I read that roulette had worse odds than blackjack, is that true?
Im trying to get the best chance of winning
Yes. Indeed. Roulette has a worse house edge than Blackjack.
More info about it on the Roulette page (where you can actually try out the different Roulette games and compare the odds of each)
And more info about Blackjack can be found on the Blackjack page (where you will find the house edge of the different types of Blackjack compared).
In Poland, unfortunately, it is impossible to open a casino could ever change how government 🙁
Hi Simon,
Great site mate. Lots on great and informative info!
Please would you be so kind and get into contact with me?
I look forward to hearing from you!
Best Regards
Jason
Just contact me on G+ (if you have a question or suggestion) or LinkedIn (for business enquiries).
I have been scammed badly the past few weeks, any way I can fight? anyway I opened a website about my case to make sure my fellow gamblers will not fall the way I did…any way to post about it here?
http://www.globallivecasinoscam.com
Sure. I have to admit I have never heard of this particular casino and I definitely do not endorse them.
It’s best to stick with established brands, who have an established market presence.
Also, you are from Hong Kong and to the best of my knowledge online gambling in Hong Kong is illegal (except Hong Kong Jockey Club, which holds a government-granted monopoly on all gambling activities).
The fact that a casino lets players register from a country, where online gambling is illegal is always a huge red flag. These are often rouge casinos. Please next time don’t try online gambling if it’s illegal in your country and just stick to Hong Kong Jockey Club.
Btw.
“betting on even-odds bets is a system and it gives the player an edge on the house.”
This is funny. 🙂 It’s not true at all.
However, because you are from Hong Kong means that you can not do anything about this and you can not sue them and you are entirely without any means of legal defense (because online gambling is illegal in HK, except for the government authorized channels).
I applaud that you put your story out there and try to help as many people as you can. However, sadly you will never get your winnings, no matter the amount of bad publicity you generate for them.
Sad to hear Johny. Thanks for opening up that website, that’s going to help lots of people to not fall prey.
Hi, simon nice job you did here congrats!!! I wanted to know if you could recomend me any good online casino to play roulette that will pay me my wins thanks

These are some great tips, thank you. It’s very annoying that most reviews are fake, it’s hard to find the best websites. – thank you!
From online slots I prefer “Cool Wolf”. Amazing machine and lucky as hell. Also, there is a pattern, which lead to exploit.
This is just simply not true. There is no such exploit. Just try it out for yourself, you can play the slot here: Cool Wolf
It’s hard to open an online casino ?
Yes, and expensive too. I will write a blog post about this soon. But you are looking at at least a $ million and it will take months.
Simon would you be interested to know in a casino admitting fault with their system which means thousands could have been duped out of potential winnings? Are you aware of any law in this area also please? Is there anything users can do? I will not name the casino until my case with them is resolved however fault has been clearly admitted.
A casino can not operate without a gambling license, so if this is true I would suggest contacting issuer of their gambling license. They will investigate this and they will be able to help you further.
Your blog is awesome! I finally have found a place for all of the gambling info that I need! I would really like you to contact me, i have a website somewhat like yours and would love to make an interview with you and publish it on our blog!
PM sent. Thanks for the opportunity, I’m definitely interested. We’ll talk more privately.
I agree….I love to gamble online. I been doing this for some time now. You have to research the company before you play for money, security payouts etc. I only have one that I play at right now. But I will post anymore good ones I find.
Recent experiences with Bovada do not add up to online recommendations I see. They are very deceptive in there communications. Telephone reps unprofessional and not honest with users. Not paying out withdrawals as offered and using different currency exchanges in there favor on account funds
Would not refer them to anyone
Yes, I agree. Bovada was removed from the website 2 years ago for similar reasons you mentioned.
