Editorial policy
How we research, write, score and correct our casino resort coverage.
Independence
Our coverage is not paid for. We accept no commissions, affiliate fees, advertising or hospitality from resorts, casino operators, betting companies or their agencies. No operator sees a review before publication or has any say in a score.
Research and accuracy
We base reviews on published resort and operator materials, regulator records, legislation, court decisions, reputable press reporting and visitor accounts. We cross-check key facts such as minimum ages, regulators, smoking rules and ownership against at least one independent source, and we hedge figures such as table counts that change often.
Where we cannot verify something, for example whether a poker room is currently operating, we say so plainly rather than guess.
Responsible coverage
We write for adults. We explain how games work and why the house always has an edge; we never publish betting systems, “how to win” claims, bonus offers or encouragement to gamble. Every review includes the jurisdiction’s minimum age, regulator, exclusion options and a relevant helpline.
Originality
All text on this site is written by our editors for this site. Photographs are used under free licenses from Wikimedia Commons and are credited in full on our sources page.
Corrections
If you spot an error, email [email protected]. We correct factual errors promptly and note significant corrections on the page concerned.
Gambling is entertainment, never income.
Every casino game has a built-in house edge. Set a budget and a time limit before you play, never chase losses, and stop if it stops being fun. Minimum ages depend on the jurisdiction.
