Lately I have been questioning the integrity of Golden, Go, and Online Vegas. I have deposited with them so many times I cannot count (I'm also in the U.S. so my options are limited). My uneasiness began when they started doing the '$2,000 drawing promotion' where if you make three deposits within one week your name is automatically entered into this drawing. There are prizes all the way to 10th place. Well, they posted the winners of the first drawing and I noticed something very odd...all of the winners were from the states (all had 'American' names, and the abbreviation of their locations were their respective state of residence). I thought, hmmm...this is strange

, don't they accept players from all different countries? What are the odds that all 10 winners from the drawing were from the same country? I sent them an email inquiring about this and I also complained about their crappy payback percentage since opening Online Vegas and Go Casino. I asked if their 'payback percentage' was now divided by three casinos since they are all owned by the same company, use the same software, and tournament feeds. Their response did not even answer the question. Instead I got a very defensive "WE DO NOT RIG GAMES, FAVOR PARTICULAR PLAYERS, CHEAT" etc. etc. etc. whatever. Basically I have found this method to prove well at these three casinos:
Log in at all three casinos and register for a 'free' tournament.
I make $0.05 ($1.25) bet per line at one casino, $0.25 ($6.25) at another casino, and $0.50 at the other casino ($12.50). Each casino gets at least 3-5 spins with the different wagers mentioned above.
I then make a mental note of which casino is paying back and how frequently this is. If none are paying back, I don't deposit. Period.
I believe since Golden Casino expanded with their newest two additions (Online Vegas and Go) that their odds of winning have decreased significantly and this reason is because their payback percentage is now divided among three different casino platforms. But that's just my conspiracy theory, I could be wrong, but I refuse to accept I am just THAT unlucky!
