Private Poker Freerolls, Contests and More!

Beginner's Guide to Online Gambling



Want to try online gambling, but don't know where to start?

There are many sites who offer you Free Gambling Money to try out their site. (*To get to sites or links, click on underlined words) These sites offer you "bonus" money, which you are free to use. This "bonus" money usually has requirements attached to it. This varies from site to site, so check the Terms and Conditions. Usually the Free credits have to be "played through" a certain number of times and all games do not qualify in meeting these conditions. "Playing through" does not mean "lose". You can win and still meet the requirements.

Interested in POKER? There are several sites which give free money to play. You can also find them on our "No Deposit" page. You can play Poker Freerolls without depositing. Some freerolls require "points" to enter, but most are absolutely free. You can find upcoming Freerolls for many poker rooms on The Blue Lizard Lounge Poker Freerolls page. You also may join in any of our private freerolls and tourneys as long as you are a forum member. Big advantage of our private freerolls is a lot less players to contend with then in regular poker room freerolls. To join our forum Click Here.

Is online gambling safe? For the most part it is. Unfortunately there are some bad gambling sites, who have no intention of paying you if you do happen to win with them. You won't find those sites listed here at all, even if they are offering free money. The sites listed here have good reputations and you should not encounter any problems.

The Blue Lizard Lounge has direct contact with most of the sites we promote. We can usually get your problem resolved quickly. Also, The Blue Lizard Lounge only promotes quality gambling sites, which brings up another issue.

About Links...why click on a link at The Blue Lizard Lounge instead of going directly to the site? The Blue Lizard Lounge has many links to sites with specials, such as free credits or special bonuses, those are only available if you use our links.

So you've found a site you like and would like to DEPOSIT...how do you make a DEPOSIT? There are a number of ways to do this, but an online ewallet is the preferred method. Most of the ewallets, require you to "certify" you are who you say you are by allowing them to make a small deposit to your bank account which you then verify the amount to them that they deposited. One of the big advantages of ewallets, is that they have all your information, such as bank account, etc., but each gambling site does not.

Each gambling site has many funding options.

Ewalletxpress works for many online gambling sites, including some poker rooms, bingo rooms and casinos.

You may find that your Visa or MasterCard works at many.

Lucky you! You've won and want to CASHOUT! All sites should have a CASHIER. Click on CASHIER, then click on WITHDRAWAL or CASHOUT. It will give you options of how you would like your withdrawal. If you deposited via an ewallet, then click on, or choose the method you used to deposit. If cashout isn't available via the method of deposit, you may opt for a paper check or perhaps a bank wire. Cashout times vary from gambling sites to instant to 5 business days. If you have used an Ewallet to deposit, you most likely will not have to verify your identity, unless your cashout is large. Verification is not difficult. You merely need to fax your identification (drivers license, or passport) and usually a copy of a utility bill to verify your residence.

After faxing identity verifications to the casino, the player's money was sent by bank wire within 7 days.

Taking Screenshots It's always a good idea to take a screenshot of the winning screen, so if any question arises you have proof of your win. This can be done in a couple of different ways.

Windows
Press the Print Screen key to capture the entire screen. The Print Screen key is located towards the right top of your keyboard.
Press Alt and Print Screen at the same time to capture only the current active window.
Peforming one of the above actions only saves the screen to your computer, it does not make an image file. You now must "paste" it into an image program such as "Microsoft Paint". To do so, simply open "Microsoft Paint" or "Microsoft Photo Editor", click on "edit", then "paste" from the toolbar at the top. Just one more step...click on "File" and "Save As", this saves it as an image to your computer. Name it something you will remember, such as "BigWin".
