Pigs are good news for insurance companies these days. With the swine flu sending tremors up the spine, insurance companies are seeing brisk business. Seems like anyone who has to travel is seeking insurance cover. There is no telling where the dreaded influenza A(H1N1) virus is lurking.

With more than a 100 cases reported in the US, schools are closing down. Despite the insurance, people hesitate to take risks. Perhaps that explains the sudden influx of traffic we are seeing at www.coolcat-casino.com.

We hear people are staying indoors at Arizona, California, Indiana, Kansas, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nevada, New York, Ohio, South Carolina and Texas –where suspected swine flu cases have been reported. When you are home-bound, the best thing to do is visit a good online casino like Cool Cat Casino.

We have a variety of games, including Blackjack, Craps, Slots and Video Poker.that you can play. And hey! We even offer insurance. Yeah, okay…. and pigs can fly, you may retort. But why not? If there are insurance policies to protect you from terrorism, natural disasters, job loss and even swine flu, then why not against the money that you risk while gambling?

We have just unveiled insurance plans afresh at the casino:

Make a $100 deposit, and rest assured with a 100% bonus insurance.

If you shell out $250 as deposit, you can avail a 150% bonus insurance.

And if you decide to chip in $500, you will earn a 250% bonus insurance.

So, don’t worry…just relax and gamble fearlessly with our generous insurance plans this month.

Have you ever heard of casinos which offer you free money to make free bets on all your favorite games without making a deposit? If you haven’t, then just check online and you will find most online casinos are doing it as a matter of routine.

Free gambling chips is basically a kind of free casino money that casinos give players to get them to play at their casinos. Now, there is no use pretending casinos are in the charity business. There are strings attached, but don’t mistake them for metallic chains which bound and gag you! We are talking about rules here.

Obviously the rules for free chips that players use to gamble may vary from one casino to another. So, do take the trouble to read the rulebook of every casino that you visit, either land-based or online. Look closely for the terms and conditions related to free chip offers, promotions and bonuses. While life does offer you free stuff, nothing is absolutely free . But then, you are also at freedom not to take up an offer. If you do, then you have to toe the line.

For instance, at Cool Cat Casino, those who use free chips to gain access to the games are not allowed to wager on any game that is progressive in nature. Such games carry progressive jackpots that can prove to be quite lucrative and to reap the benefits of such features, a player has to show more …. ‘commitment’… shall we say?

If a player –either in ignorance or deliberately — uses free chips to bet on any of the progressive games, the money won will be forfeited. Progressive jackpots are on offer on some slots and table games.

We agree players are smart and wish to play and make money. But understand one thing: you can play and win and cash out when and only when you make a minimum deposit. Players who avail a free sign-up promotion, comp or bonus offer may get the bright idea of accumulating bonus points, say from a bonus round of slots at Cool Cat Casino, and then use those points to make their initial deposit. SORRY. This is not allowed.

The whole idea of giving you free money to play with, is to try out the casino and then come back on your own for more, if you liked it. You cannot play circulating the same free money and its spin-offs. You have to cash out (for which there are playthrough requirements attached!), and to cash out, you have to deposit as well!

So, you can see it for yourself, rules are meant to be followed, not circumvented. If you think you are smart…online casinos are a a step ahead of you. But if you co-operate, it can be a mutually beneficial arrangement, believe us!

The Internet is full of free stuff. Now who does not like freebies? Online casinos have zeroed in on the magic of “free” and managed to get every Tom, Dick and Harry to play online games, gratis. It is amazing how many people who would otherwise run scared of gambling, turn up regularly at online casinos to try their luck on the free games.

Doing a one-up on online casinos are applications hosted by social networking sites which have literally hijacked the free game platform. Latest reports suggest that Facebook applications for casino games like Texas Hold’em Poker have attracted millions of players.

So much so, it is competing with long-time champion of online games, World of Warcraft.

Facebook applications – mostly hosted by online casinos –provide hundreds of casino games such as Bingo, Slots, Poker, Blackjack. Of course, many of those who play for free finally convert to “play for money” players at reputed online casinos.

Usually free online games are not played with real money. Instead, some “casino chips” are funded into your account for you to enjoy free games. The biggest advantage of playing free games is that you become well-versed with a game. You can try out all the strategies and tips suggested by game experts. You don’t feel uncomfortable when you play the same game by putting real money on the line. And when you start playing with real money, you don’t feel uncomfortable or unsure about the moves you are expected to make.

The downside to this is that children without access to cash may also try their hand at the free casino games. This has the authorities worried and there is a clamor for some fool-proof verification of age. A recent survey by the Oregon Department of Health Services has found that underage participation at free Internet gaming sites is on the increase among 12- to 17-year-olds.

Well, the online casino industry has always managed to work in some self-regulation and encourage responsible gambling. The strict vigilance over registrations for play for money can easily be extended to free games as well. After all, teens who participate in online gambling are most likely to become gambling addicts later in their life. However, it is not just websites but parents too who should keep an eye on kids’ activities on the Internet. Gambling is no child’s play and a free gamble should not be mistaken for a joy-ride.
