How would you like be able to bet $1 chips on a single zero french roulette wheel? Would you like to play slots games that well exceed Las Vegas payout percentages and in fact payout between 96%-98%? Are you a fan of the american classic game of video poker? Microgaming Viper powered online casinos and a couple of other software providers have well over 25 video poker machines in up to as many as 9 different coin denominations. If you try and find the same wide variety and assortment of games at a Land based casino you'll find out fast that you can't.

Because of the low overhead associated with operating online casinos it's much easier for online casino operators to develop and deploy new casino games on a regular basis. Some of the Microgaming casinos out there feature well over 115 casino games to choose from and play. Variations of games that you'd never find in a land based Las Vegas or Atlantic City casino.

In the following sections you'll find some general pointers on how to play at online casinos for the first time. Our advice is to follow our simple instructions and you should have no problems getting started playing your favorite casino games online.

To gamble online casinos for the first time, please read through the following steps and follow them to get started:

  1. Visit the homepage of Top 10 Online Casinos and choose a casino you think you'd like to try out and play at. Each of the casinos featured in our Top 10 selection follow our ranking criteria for placement on our site and we have deemed them to be some of the most trusted, secure and worthy casinos out there.

You'll find that if you play for real money you'll get bonuses for your deposit, it's an incentive by the casinos to attract users to come and play at their casinos. If you don't like the casino bonus after visiting the casinos site visit our site Top 10 Online Casinos again and find a bonus that suits you more so. No onto the next step, step 2.

  2. When you get to the casino web site you'll usually notice a large button somewhere on the screen that says something like "Download" or "Download Now". This is what you want to click on in order to download the software. Some software packages automatically download onto your computer but other may require you to select where to download and save the casino executable file to. I usually have it saved on my desktop, that way it's easiest for me to access after the download I simply close all the applications I have running and there'll be an icon on the desktop for the casino I just downloaded. Some casinos may ask you for your e-mail address before you they initiate the download do not worry about this you will not receive spam as the companies are very professional and respect your privacy. If this is the case simple input your e-mail address and click the "Download" button. If you don't see a download button for some reason it could be that the casino uses the bonus promotion shown on their homepage as a means of downloading the software. Some casinos make it even easier and have a popup window that comes up and says "would you like to download our software while you surf our site" or something along those lines. All you have to do in this case would be to click "OK", "Yes" or whatever's there in order to initiate the download.

  3. Once the software has completed downloading it will either prompt you directly to start the installation process or you'll have to go to your desktop and click the icon for the casino which was just downloaded. In that case double click on that icon and the installation of the software will begin. Once the software is installed you will have a casino icon on your desktop. Any time you want to enter the casino you will just need to double click on the icon and the casino will start up. Now your software has been downloaded and installed. You only have a few minor steps left. You must open the casino, register an account, purchase chips, (if your playing for Real), and then win money! The first three are easy, however the last may require a little luck!

  4. To launch the casino click on the icon on the desktop if you have not done so already and the online casino software will launch. At this point a window should popup asking you to register and account with the casino if you don't already have an account with them. Make sure to fill out the registration form completely and accurately. They need this information to be correct so that they can send you your winnings! Make sure you write down the password they give you in a very safe place. Do not save the password on your computer if children use this computer. You are responsible for the gambling on this account!

  5. Once you have been assigned a username and password you are ready to log in to the casino for the first time. Once you do this, the casino may pop up a message asking if you want to buy chips. If this happens, and you only want to play for Fun, just ignore it & close the window out, choose the game you want to play and enjoy the Fun. If you want to play for Real then, take them up on their offer. If they do not pop up a window asking you to buy chips, look for a button labeled "cashier", "bank", or "banking". Once in this area you can register a credit card that you can use to buy chips and most casinos also offer other ways to pay such as NETeller, Click2Pay, FirePay, PrePaid ATM, Western Union, or bank wire. Now that you have bought chips you are ready to gamble. Have fun at the games & Good Luck.

Remember, all casinos here will give you the option of playing for fun (no money needed), or playing for real (real money, real wins & loses), it’s your choice, you’ll never be under any obligation to open a real account if you don’t want to. Be sure to also visit Top 10 Online Casinos (sister site).
