Onlineblackjackguide.com Online Blackjack Guide: Strategy and Casino Ranking

Overall Score: 82.5/90 Visit: Player's Club Casino

Summary: Player's club is a member of the BOSS Media network of casinos. They are fully registered and licensed by the Deputy Governor of the Netherlands Antilles to Boss Media. They have the largest introductory bonus of all the Boss casinos, and still offer the lucrative one deck blackjack game.

Accreditation: 10/10 Boss Media is a publicly 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.

House Edge: 10/10 The PLAYER has a slight advantage of 0.10%. Player's Club is one of the few Boss casinos still offering the favorable one deck blackjack game. I believe they will remove the one deck game once they see how much damage we can do!

Payment History: 8/10 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 manager at Player's Club has offered me an exclusive deal for my players. He has doubled the introductory bonus amount: 100% up to $200!*** You won't find this anywhere else, so play today. The bonus requirement is 20x'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 $200 deal (you will see the deal about half way down the page on my links to Players Club).

Graphics: 9/10 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: 9/10 Great support. 24/7 phone, and email support. No live chat feature yet. Operators are very friendly and helpful.

Blackjack Rules/Variations: 9/10 Player's club has 2 game versions. A one deck game version which only allows you to play one hand at a time. Also, a 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.

Banking: 9/10 Offers fast payouts through 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.)

My Rating: 9/10 Player's Club is an absolute MUST PLAY casino. The exclusive offer of 100% match up to $200 is a no brainer. One deck blackjack, exclusive bonus, and the quality reputation of a publicly owned company in BOSS Media make Player's Club one of my top choices.
