Winner Casino Review

Winner Casino sums up its mission in two words - "creating winners.” This starts with its state-of-the-art online gambling software and a positive atmosphere. 

It prides itself on being a consumer-based gaming site, with the player constantly remaining the top priority. 24/7 customer support via live chat, phone, and email is a testament to that.

Games that are entertaining and fun to play are also an integral part of the mission. Winner has certainly achieved that. There is a huge variety of games from one of the biggest developers in the world.

Winner is operated by PT Entertainment Services Limited, a company fully licensed and regulated by the UK Gambling Commission. 

PT Entertainment Services is a subsidiary of Playtech, one of the industry leaders in online gaming software. Founded in 1999, Playtech now employs over 5000 people. It covers 140 licensees in 17 countries, making it a truly global brand.

As we mentioned, there is a great selection of games available. They are provided by Playtech, as mentioned above, which is a world leader in the industry. 

It is currently the largest online gaming software supplier traded on the London Stock Exchange Main Market.

The 'Casino' tab in the main header will take you to the vast game library. There are options such as featured, new slots, card games, roulette, live games, poker, arcade, and jackpots in the submenu. 

 

The huge slots library has all the top Playtech titles. These include:

 

● Age of the Gods (series)

● Terminator Genisys

● Grease

● The Mask of Zorro

● Ronnie O’Sullivan

● Justice League

● The Matrix

● Dirty Dancing

● White King

● Gladiator

● Deal Or No Deal

● Vampire: Princess of Darkness

● Sherlock Mystery

● Epic Ape

● Age of Egypt

If you click the ‘Slots’ option in the main header menu, rather than the submenu, a choice of categories will appear. These include High Adrenaline, Movie & TV, Superheroes, Adventure, Fantasy, Sports, Leisure, Nature, and Classic. 

Clicking the Jackpots tab in the submenu will display the progressive slots on offer. There are 30 currently available. The ones to look out for would be:

● Age of the Gods (series)

● Gladiator

● Jackpot Giant

● Everybody’s Jackpot

All those games have jackpots well into the hundreds of thousands. Gladiator, in particular, is at over £800,000! Each game has its jackpot displayed in real time at the base of its thumbnail image.

There are also progressive poker and roulette games found in their respective sections.

 

The ‘Card Games’ tab will take you to the blackjack and poker section, with a separate tab for roulette. The games available are as follows:

Spread Bet, European, Classic, 3D, Diamond, Deluxe, 101, Penny, Age of the Gods, French, Mini, Multiplayer, and American are a few of the roulette games available. There are also some premium and pro variations of those.

 

Surrender, Classic, Perfect, UK, Premium, All Bets, Lucky Lucky, Buster, Frankie Dettori, Cashback, Single Hand, Double Attack, Super 21, American, Multiplayer, Switch, and 21 Duel are some of the blackjack varieties. Some multi-hand versions are also playable.

 

The multiplayer poker section has all the big tournaments and huge jackpots you’d expect. We’ll look at it in more depth a little later.

You can play Casino Hold ‘Em, Tequila, Caribbean Stud, Red Dog, Pai Gow, and Heads-Up Hold Em in the casino. Some multiline and multi-hand versions are also found here. 

All American, Aces and Faces, Jack or Better, Deuces Wild, Megajacks, and Tens or Better are available.

For some reason, these are spread across both the Card Games section and the Video Poker section. 

 

Clicking the ‘Arcade’ tab will bring up a number of scratchcard and instant win games. Keno, Rock Paper Scissors, and Bonus Bowling are some of the games available. There are also baccarat and pontoon games in the ‘Card Games’ section. 

Clicking ‘Bingo’ in the main header will take you to the standalone bingo section. It has its own promotions, VIP program, and community, so well worth a look.

You can access the live dealer games by clicking Live Games in the submenu, or Live Casino in the main menu. The available games are:

 

● Roulette (£0.50 - £50)

● Blackjack (£2.50 - £100)

● Baccarat (£2.50 - £250)

● Hi-Lo (£1 - £1,000)

● Spin A Win (£0.10 - £5,000)

● Poker (£5 - £50)

● Sic Bo (£5 - £300)

The VIP program has five levels, each with increasing perks. You will move from club member to the Diamond, Platinum, Elite, and Black levels. 

Some of the bonuses include welcome gifts, a personal account manager, and invitations to special events. Improved betting options like quicker withdrawals and higher withdrawal amounts are also available. 

There are no hints as to how much you need to wager to progress through the levels. We are only told that a customer service team member will contact you when you advance to a new level. 

Winner utilises an incredibly secure 128-bit SSL encrypted connection. You can check that it’s active by looking for the ‘https://’ in your address bar. That means your personal information and any financial transactions are safely away from prying eyes.

Winner is also licensed and regulated by the UK Gambling Commission. That keeps it in line with the UK Gambling Act of 2005. In short, you can trust this casino.

The ‘Sports’ tab in the main header menu will take you through to the sportsbook.

The sidebar on the left has all the sports categories and quick links to popular markets. UEFA Nations League, Grand Slam of Darts, NFL, and NBA would be some of the options here. 

Football, horse racing, and tennis are the main sports, with football alone having up to 60,000 wagers on offer. There are 38 categories in total, which is less than many competitors. Winner has chosen to focus on more popular sports, instead of covering niche categories such as esports, chess, and pool. Indoor sports such as snooker, darts, and table tennis are still here. 

If you like to wager on current affairs, head to the entertainment and politics sections. Reality TV and awards shows are covered in entertainment, while politics has betting based on any upcoming voting or elections. 

The sportsbook homepage displays the top live events. You can click the ‘In-Play’ tab in the main menu to see all the current matches. The sidebar displays the games, and clicking on one will bring up live statistics updates and an animated real-time match tracker. All the in-play wagers will be below that. For a football match, these would be bets like full-time result, first half correct score, and next team to score.

There is also a handy calendar where you can see which games in the future will support live betting. 

There are also virtual sports to bet on here. Football, horse racing, tennis, basketball, cycling, greyhounds, and Speedway are all offered.

The 'Poker' tab in the main header menu will take you to the standalone poker area of the website. You’ll be greeted with links to the poker school, current tournaments, and information about the mobile website. The poker section also has its own promotions, VIP loyalty scheme, and community.

You have to download the poker software to your PC or mobile if you’d like to play against other users. This will give you access to all the playing options, such as cash tables, speed poker, sit & go, and special tournaments. 

The mobile website covers all the same ground as the main desktop site. Sports, casino, slots, live casino, poker, and bingo are all here. It is laid out in a similar way to the desktop version, which makes it extremely easy to navigate. All the promotions, bonuses, games, and wagers are the same. 

Currently, there are three apps available- sports betting, casino, and slots. However, only the casino app is available for UK players. It is free to download and has all the same games, promotions, and bonuses as the main website. The app offers a more refined version of the mobile site, with games available in full-screen. 

If you bring up the sidebar menu, you’ll find the Help option near the bottom. 

 

The email address listed is casino@winner.co.uk. It states that the emails are answered from 6AM-Midnight. 

 

The telephone support number is listed as 0808-1203-498. Like the e-mails, this is operated from 6AM-Midnight.

 

The live chat feature can be accessed by clicking the blue square in the top right of the screen. 

As the heading of the help section says 24/7 support, we’ll have to assume the live chat is open 24/7.

There are a number of payment options available, both regular methods and e-wallets. These include:

Deposit Options: Credit Cards, Debit Cards, Boku, PayPal, PaySafe Card, Bank Transfer, Skrill, Neteller, Entropay.

Withdrawal Options: Credit Cards, Debit Cards, Bank Transfer.

It’s not unusual for betting websites to focus on just a few main areas. With sports, slots, live casino, poker, and bingo, Winner is a complete one-stop shop for online betting.

Offering thousands of betting options and industry-leading games across multiple platforms is quite a task. Somehow, Winner has managed pulled it off. 

Add to that a £600 welcome offer, and you’ve got a truly world-class operation.
