Hopes that Pennsylvania was about to join New Jersey in legalising online casinos have hit another setback, albeit a temporary one, as lawmakers have been unable to reach agreement on the shape of the legislation and, crucially, the taxation rules that would accompany it.

This is not the first time that the state has seemed on the cusp of legalising online gambling, only to grind to a halt at the eleventh hour, and many commentators are confident that talks will resume and we will at long last get across the line. As things currently stand, lawmakers are on call, which means discussions could be reconvened at any moment. Alternatively, of course, the question might remain in abeyance till later in the year.

The New Jersey model

The everlasting question for slots lovers. Is there a certain strategy for playing online slots to give you more chances of winning or is it just simple luck that decides it’s a winning day? We can tell you right now on this site that luck is the biggest help you need but there are some tips which can definitely give you an advantage.

Slots payout percentage

First we will explain something about the payout percentage of a video slot. Every slot has a payout percentage which shows how much a slot pays to the player. A payout percentage of 96% means that for every 100 euro bet you will win 96 euro. The other 4 euro will go to the casino. This percentage is over a range of many spins, from 800.000 to 80.000.000.000. So every time you bet 100 euro it doesn't mean that you win 96 euro.

What are your responsibilities as COO - Director of Operations at Sortis & Golden Lion Casinos? 

One of the first things you see when you hit the homepage of Casumo Casino is their claim that they are an amazing casino. While no casino would put something like 'we're actually not a very good casino' on their homepage, this is a bold claim. But with an attractive design, plenty of strong bonus offers, and a great selection of online casino games, it's hard to argue that Casumo Casino is anything but an amazing casino.

Founded in 2012, Casumo Casino has made a number of claims of similar boldness, including that they were designed to make people smile and that they exist to erase boredom. While those claims can't be defended quantitatively, they must be true to some degree if Casumo Casino continues to build a positive reputation.
