Best Casino 2011 - Mr Green
A tough choice, but anyone who has the guts to call a casino "Mr Green" and
then spectacularly pull it off gets our vote. The design of this casino is
immediately eye catching with Mr Green in his trademark green suit prevalent
around the site. The site was the brain child of three Scandinavian
entrepreneurs in 2007 and the design and features have been gradually improved
over the years.
But it's under that green suit where you find the stuff that really matter.
To be considered a top flight casino a site has to offer the highest quality
games, world-class service, tournaments, a loyalty rewards program that actually
delivers more than lip service.
Mr Green delivers all this and more.
Congratulations to the winner of our 2011 Best Online Casino award -
Mr Green Casino.
Honourable mention:
Casino.com - in our opinion the Playtech casino that offers the best overall
value and most reliable service.
Best Bookmaker 2011 - Unibet
It's not hard to like
Unibet. It starts with their fantastic range of products which covers online
gambling from just about every angle including live sports betting, one of
Europe's busiest poker rooms, instant play and live casino games, skill games
and much more. All of the products have been seamlessly integrated and the
simplicity from a user point of view is a huge plus.
Some might say that's nothing new and that there are numerous larger
sportsbooks that can boast the same credentials but we think Unibet stands out
from the crowd through their consistent efforts to improve their products. Their
live in-play betting, and the way it has been integrated with live video
streaming is first-class.
Unibet has the size and financial backing to give players peace of mind so on
the whole, they are our pick from a bunch of tough contenders.
Congratulations to to
Unibet, our Best Bookmaker of 2011.
Honourable mention:
bet365, that just keeps on getting better and better.
Best Slots Casino 2011 - All Slots Casino
Never has
All Slots Casino. In 2011, The Jackpot Factory Group
kept on improving their product from an already strong bass with the addition of
almost 70 new slots games. The site itself was redesigned, the loyalty program
improves and the tournaments schedule receive an overhaul. If you considered
their range of slot and fruit machine games, the huge jackpots, promotions and
service focussed on slots players we still believe that there are few that match
All Slots Casino.
Congratulations to
All Slots Casino, our Slots Casino of The Year for the
third year running. What's more, you can win a 3D TV in our exclusive monthly TV
Raffle, sponsored by All Slots (visit our
Raffles page).
Honourable mention:
Virgin Casino, for their continue strategy of sourcing slots games from the
best providers and offering the widest range of slots on the planet.
Best Game in 2011 - SupermanTM
Choosing a game is tough. This year saw some brilliant new titles from
Microgaming, Playtech, NetEnt, IGT and nice developers like Betsoft and Ash
Gaming. 2011 also saw the entry into the online gambling market from two big
daddy's in the land based market - Viaden Gaming (
Big
Casino) and WMS (
Jackpot
Party Casino), which has increased competition even further.
There are many factors to consider in picking a game including the theme,
size of jackpot, range of bet sizes, bonus round and more. So for us, it's a
bird, it's a plane no it's Superman from Cryptologic! This game ticked all the boxes and
besides, I would not be able to live with myself if I didn't pick Superman!
Congratulations to
Cryptologic,
winner of our Game of the Year for 2011 award. Play the game at
Virgin Casino.
Honourable mention: Mega Fortune from NetEnt.
It just keeps on paying the massive jackpots.
