New Online Casinos Yet for Americans Too

Recently, the US Federal government banned online casinos from operating in America by making it illegal to transfer money to them through any US bank or payment system. Because of this law, most of the popular online casino networks such as Party Gaming and PlayTech left the United States. However, new casinos starting taking root.

A bulk of these online game entities created other casinos and gaming houses that could still allow players from America to enter and participate in online games. Even some of the very respected casino entities followed suit and these are the casinos which you might run into if you are an American player.

The system used for bypassing the American ban is actually pretty ingenious. Since the legal stop is only against moving cash to online gambling entities, casinos created new identities (sometimes new names), and the money is moved to and from these new identities that are seemingly unrelated to gambling. This means that one can even use a Visa or Diners Card to play! It is also important to note that some money transfer options such as Neteller and MoneyBrokers are easier to use for such transactions.

What Does It Matter to Me?
If you are one of those who likes to be told where and how to spend your money then this ban will not bother you at all. But if you feel that your money is yours and that no government can tell you what to do with it then this law is a travesty. When it comes to legal advice, no one will tell you to go online and play at an online casino. But what about us? What about we that like it? Every prohibition caused black markets to prosper. So too this one. But, there are still quite a few online casinos that are backed by safe game entities that are trustworthy.

Casinos that Allow American Players to Take Part
1) ClubUSA Casino:
By offering software created and professionally managed by Real Time Gaming, one of the most trusted names in the gaming software industry, this online casino uses Wire Card to conduct all its online banking transactions with you. They also offer a nice and hefty seven hundred and fifty dollars free for playing.

2) Roxy Palace:
While the previous casino was operated using Real Time Gaming, Roxy Palace turned to MicroGaming, another firm and sturdy software gaming company. The product you get is one that is not only graphically enhanced, but also includes a random number generator far superior than any other in the online casino industry.

3) Golden Casino:
Rumored to be an outlet of Golden Palace, this online casino recently changed its software, and also boasts a new variety of online games for every taste. Other than the five hundred and fifty dollars that it hands out as its bonus prize, this online casino is rare in that its game-display is simple, but the variety of games incredibly vast and varied.

4) By encrypting their casino software with a newly fortified 128 byte security system, Crystal Palace is the online casino to play at if you are from American and want to guarantee a secure playing environment. Another advantage of picking this casino to play at is that all the different transactions that are conducted between you and them will show up on your credit slips as between you and an entity called Crystalisle Management, thus safeguarding you and your cash.

5) Any casino that belongs to the Fortune Lounge group is one that any player from anywhere in the world can safely play and enjoy. Royal Vegas Casino is the top one from this group, and to those from America, still accepting US players. It also uses MicroGaming and uses their assistance in the day-to-day running of the casino software.

Afterword:
It is not difficult to find an online casino that is willing to let you play there even if you reside in America. But, the problems might occur when you try transferring money to and more importantly from it. Preventing your hard-earned money from returning to your account is what this article hopes to guarantee by helping you select those casinos that allow such transactions to take place. In any case, I suggest that you prefer the casinos situated locally and that are legal than trying to bypass any American law especially since it has been passed by the Federal government.
