Players from United Kingdom are welcome at Mermaid’s Palace casino.
Only one of the six reviewers for this site holds an account with the Firebrand group of casinos and that account has been open less than 6 months. Our reviewer ended up not playing with Atlantis Gold as they do not offer Neteller as a banking method.
We are aware of several complaints against the Firebrand group casinos that have not received a response.
Atlantis Gold casino carry the following term;
“Professional card counters are prohibited. If you are found to be a professional card counter, any winnings will be forfeit and your account will be subject to immediate closure.”
Firstly, Atlantis Gold casino do not offer any live blackjack games. Card counting depends on the player being able to record the cards that have already been played on previous rounds and adjust their bets/strategy on subsequent rounds to suit the cards that are left. All online casinos use Random Number Generators to simulate their card games. As such online card games are shuffled after every round. Given that there are no previous rounds to record, there is no advantage to be gained by counting cards. The only possible games that could be targeted by a card counter is a live game where you can see the dealer over a video feed and the cards are shuffled at set points.
Moreover, no reputable offline casino would ever seize a player’s winning for card counting. Simply put, doing so has been ruled illegal in almost all reputable offline jurisdictions. It is not cheating to use your brain to beat a game. We don’t consider it ethical for an offline casino to take this action either – or even include a rule saying they will – regardless of whether or not they “like” the practice.
Even if the reason for the fund seizure in this instance is not the card counting section of this term, the presence of such a term show remarkable ignorance of the way gambling games function. This shows a basic lack of understanding of how the games they offer work and to have this built into a legal document is fairly appalling.
This term was added at exactly the same time and with the same wording as the Revenue Giants casinos added it and as such it seems likely that these casino groups share management.
