Investigating an Online Casinos Free Software Download
by Mike Harrison, Strategy and Games Writer

Determining Wager Limits and Bonus Requirements for Individual Games:

Many gamblers claim they are unable to find information regarding wager requirements and betting limits at specific games when researching online casinos.  While it is true that most casinos do not openly divulge the betting limits at each of their games, just as they often do not explain how the software betting interface for each game operates, the information is still readily available.

Aside from actually finding the information buried in the casinos website (best found by sorting through the a site map) or calling up customer service to ask what the wager limits are on your games of choice, you can simply test-play their software for free to find out for yourself. Any reputable online casino will let you practice their free gambling software, and for as long as you like.  If they do not permit you to do this, you shouldn't even bother becoming a member.

It is very important that you test out the software, just as you would test-drive a car before buying it. Admittedly, it would be easier to simply call or email the casino and ask a customer representative what the wager requirements and betting limits are for the games that you know you will be playing.  However, if you are very serious about playing at a specific site - and the site has passed your requirements up until now - we suggest trying out the software, for this kills two birds with one stone.

Simply look for links on the gaming site (usually on the homepage) that say 'Play Now' or 'Download Now'. If you want even faster access, look for the No-Download, Flash or Instant Play versions of the software. While some sites will give you immediate access to the Play-for-fun software platform, which mirrors the real-money platform, most sites will require a brief registration process in the interests of preventing underage and problem gamblers from accessing the sites. At most, you will only need to provide a valid birth date, residence and email address.

Once inside the software platform, you will have free range to play all the games, determine the betting limits (which you may want to jot down in a notebook) and check out the banking options. You are under no obligation to open a real money account at any time (you can even reload fake unlimited credits to gamble with). However, you most certainly are invited to do so at any time if you want to make the transition to playing with real money.
