OnlineCasino.co.uk - About Our Team

When choosing an online casino, about seventy percent of all players fail to do proper research. Rather than heed the wisdom of expert reviews, resources, and tips, too many players rely on quick Google searches or manipulative adverts. At Online Casino UK, we find this statistic sad and take it personally, largely because it doesn't have to be this way.

Online since 1998, Online Casino UK has always strived to be the #1 resource for anything related to online gaming in the UK. Read on to learn about our unique perspective and growing team of United Kingdom casino experts.

Oliver loves the casinos online. The only things Oliver dreams about is flashing lights, clacking chips, and slot jackpots. But apart from his love of the casino atmosphere, Oliver is actually a very serious table game player. While the rest of us played snap at a young age, Oliver played blackjack and poker. For longer than he can remember, his family has always loved card games.

About the United Kingdom Experience

If you love casino excitement, then the UK is precisely where you want to be. Unlike other countries in the so-called civilised world that clamp down on gambling in various manners, the United Kingdom authorises and regulates wagering online and offline. It's hard to believe the country that invented Las Vegas and all its mayhem restricts online casinos in most states. But unless you like laughing at other people's misfortune, it's not your problem in the UK. You should count your lucky stars and hit the tables instead.

About UK Resources

Even though online casinos are completely legal and regulated in the United Kingdom, the resources available to players are underwhelming. Too many sites seem like they were either authored by a robot who plagiarised Wikipedia or someone who has never visited a casino in his life. Some of the more popular sites operate on a global scale and make only passing mention of UK online casinos. About half the sites lack the impartiality you should demand.

If you were planning on learning something from the United Kingdom Gambling Commission's blog, it helps to be a barrister, solicitor, or legislator. All that legal jargon might play well in court or parliament, but it won't help you win at blackjack at a casino online. About all you need is the information to succeed in the UK, which is precisely where we come in.
