Overall Score: 9.5/10
Introduction: Casino Craze is a member of the Boss Media network of casinos. They are operated by Penny Lane Holdings and are registered and incorporated plus located in the British Virgin Islands (registration number 547829).
Accreditation: Boss Media is a publically owned company in Sweden. They are in control of the software completely, and the casino is only able to control the table minimums and the games available. The random number generator via the Geiger-Muller Tube Detector utilizes the unpredictability of background radiation to generate random numbers. Boss Media also uses Pricewaterhouse Coopers, the worlds largest and most respected auditing company, to review the output of the random generator. The monthly payout ratio is published by the casino and has been reviewed by Pricewaterhouse Coopers.
Payment History: 8.5/10. All Boss casinos use Web Dollar to manage the online banking. Safe, secure, and fast payments are the standard. Web Dollar requires you to use a "pin" to make withdrawals and deposits over $500. The pin is mailed to your home address when you register with the casino (takes about a week to get to you in the USA.) Payout times are average at 1-4 business days after request is made. No further identification or forms are required to make a withdrawal.
Bonuses/Comps: 9.5/10 The bonus requirement is 25x's the bonus plus the deposit, and all blackjack games count towards the requirements. You must use the links on this page to be eligible for the 100% up to $100 deal.
Software/ Graphics: 8/10 Boss casinos are well know for tremendous graphics and game play. I wish the gameplay was a little faster, especially when the dealer is "checking for blackjack": it seems to take forever! Otherwise, the gameplay is solid.
Customer Support: 9.5/10 Great support. 24/7 phone, and email support. No live chat feature yet. Operators are very friendly and helpful.
Blackjack Rules/Variations: This is the 6 deck version which allows you to play with other real players (make sure to say hi to me if you see me playing!) You can play up to 3 hands at the same time on the 6 deck version.
Six deck Blackjack Rules: House edge calculated at 0.46%
1) 6 decks; may play multiplayer/multihand
2) American hole card: only original bets lost in dealer blackjack
3) dealer stays on soft 17
4) may double after splitting
5) one card after split aces
6) one split per hand
Banking: 9/10. Offers fast payouts throught Web Dollar. Clear, concise description of transactions. Accepts a variety of payments in the form of neteller, firepay, and credit cards. Require a pin that is sent to your physical address for large withdrawals and deposits (greater than $500.)
What I Have to Say: Casino Craze is an new casino to the list. The exclusive offer of 100% match up to $100 is a no brainer. Six deck blackjack, nice bonus, low wager requirements and the quality reputation of a publically owned company in Boss Media make Casino Craze one of my top choices.
