Online Casino Slots where US Players are accepted
The question in everybody’s head right now is: what’s going to happen after December 1st 2009?
No, it’s not a Mayan apocalyptic date although some may take it as such. That is the date when the UIGEA (short for: Unlawful Internet Gambling Enforcement Act) will come into full effect.
According to this law, all financial institutions must avoid at all cost any transaction that is involved with online gambling. This includes bets on sports, poker and casinos. The law does not prohibit US citizen from actually gambling as it is not aimed at stopping the consumer. It attempts to stop only those companies that process transactions from the players to the gambling sites and vice versa.
US players that are looking for US-friendly casinos will have to be careful especially after Dec. 1st. Most casinos have already left the US market but some still continue. These companies are registered and operated from outside the US and for this reason the US government cannot interfere with them. What players must be in the lookout is for online casinos that offer safe ways for US players to deposit and subsequently cash out their winnings. Since the UIGEA will be targeting these third-party companies, the player must verify that the casino offers stable ongoing service for deposits and withdrawals.
Currently there has been only one casino platform that has remained steady in their endeavor to provide casino slot games to US players. These are the Rival-Gaming casinos, such as SuperiorCasino.com, This Is Las Vegas Casino, Slotoscash Casino and the like.
Players may feel secure for now when playing slot at Rival-powered casinos as they have a solid reputation and have made evident that they are committed to service the US public with quality service and entertainment. Rival casinos are US-friendly but note that they no longer accept Canadian players.
