Casino-on-Net - The Flagship of 888.com Gaming

As the first venture by software developer 888 Holdings PLC into online gaming, Casino-on-Net has provided gaming action to some 25 million players since its launch in 1997. Today, it still serves as the flagship of an armada of web sites, including Pacific Poker, 888sport, 888games, and 888ladies Bingo. Although they operate independently and require separate accounts, all of the sites can now be accessed via 888's centralized Internet gaming venue, www.888.com.

Players should note that as 888 Holdings has been going through the process of consolidating its fleet of gaming sites, all of the following Casino-on-Net games, plus nine special "World Cup" games and more, are now resident at the newer 888casino.com portal. Casino-on-Net's online "QuickPlay Casino" continues to function as always, but those seeking the very latest 888 games are well advised to use the newer web site to download the casino application, which is no longer available at Casino-on-Net.com.

Games to Play

Experience counts, and those most familiar with Casino-on-Net know that the gambling entertainment it offers is safe, fun, and fair. Also, because 888 is a major software provider to online casinos, many of the newest games on the Internet are debuted through the company's exclusive casino site.

Casino-on-Net table games include such classics as Blackjack, Baccarat, Craps, and Roulette. Innovation shows up in games like Crazy Blackjack, a multi-hand version of twenty-one with three side bets, as well as progressive-jackpot Caribbean Poker. There are Pai Gow Poker tables available, too, offering standard, high-roller, and VIP stakes.

Seven different Video Poker games provide all of the variety enthusiasts crave, from good old-fashioned Jacks or Better and Bonus Poker to Deuces Wild, Joker's Wild, and the ever-popular Aces and Faces. A huge progressive jackpot is offered on Royal Diamonds, and Power Video Power allows play of up to 50 hands at once.

Of course, most of the action at Casino-on-Net rakes place in the Slots area, where dozens of fast-paced games can be found. There is a Classic Slots section with 16 games, including 2 Times Wild, 5 Times Wild, and 10 Times Wild, along with Ole Glory, Pyramid's Treasure, and other three-reel slots. The classic software expertise of 888 is evident is in unique slots such as Thundering 888, too.

For more modern Video Slot play, a large number of five-reel, multi-payline games are provided. There is Santastic with its Christmas theme, Flower Power paying homage to the 1960s, and Mystery of the Taro offering two numinous bonus rounds. Globetrotting will appeal to those with the travel bug, while Labyrinth of Egypt invites puzzle solvers to try and unlock a secret safe in the Tomb of Treasures Bonus Game. New slot games are being added regularly.

Those seeking a truly big win can find their opportunity in the progressive slots, such as 2 Times Extra Wild, Super Thundering 888, and Mega Green and Gold. There is also a Japanese-style progressive jackpot classic called Deep Ocean Pachislo, which gives players control over starting and stopping the spinning reels. And those who appreciate high odds winning for minimal bets, a Keno game is provided, too.
