lucky_ismtLong time lurker here, so here is how I pick an online casino these days. After trying maybe a dozen sites I stopped going by ads alone.
Licence comes first for me: check who regulates the site, and whether they actually accept players from your country. Then payments: card, e-wallets and bank transfer should all be there, and there should be no weird fees on cashouts.
Never judge a site by the bonus alone. Read the wagering and the max bet rule, and the bonus usually expires in a week or two. A decent independent write-up with the current terms is here [url=https://www.efunda.com/members/people/show_people.cfm?Usr=martinez27bcc3]learn more[/url] so you know what you are signing up for.
I play almost only on my phone, so I check how the lobby works on a small screen. Ask support one simple question first: a real human reply beats a bot loop.
Hope this helps someone. Set a budget and stick to it.
