ASK THE CASINO INSIDER:

This week, Julie interviewed Siobhan, a friendly long-time Customer Support pro at a Microgaming casino known for one of the best casino support departments online.


What is the funniest request you've ever gotten from a player?

Siobhan: I once had a lady from Scotland who wanted to edit in her own sound effects to all the games. She wanted all kinds of famous people such as Sean Connery and Mel Gibson to congratulate her when she won money. Unfortunately we had to turn down her request!


What is the biggest payout you personally have ever paid?

Siobhan: $633,336 to an American lady who won Major Millions. To say she was delighted would be an absurd understatement!


What is your own favorite game at the casino?

Siobhan: I like the new hundred hand Video Poker games, with Aces and Faces being my favourite type.


How many players do you help in a typical day?

Siobhan: It can vary massively, but I would say around 60 as an average.


What is your favorite thing about working at Spin Palace?

Siobhan: The people! We have a great time and it is an exciting industry to work in.


What is it like talking every day with people from all over the world?

Siobhan: I find it very interesting and regularly get into conversations with them that quickly move away from gambling!


What piece of advice would you most like to give to a player who is considering online play for the first time?

Siobhan: Play for free before playing for real money. You can play all our games for free first and they are very popular with new players.

We think Siobhan's recommendation to try the free games first is such good advice that we are providing free games from Microgaming online casinos right here, right now for you to try. See the links for the free games directly below. The links will open up a window where you can play the games for free as long as you'd like.

These are the real games from the real casino, including such popular slots as Lara Croft Tombraider, Big Kahuna, Crazy Chameleons, and Thunderstruck, as well as a variety of video poker and table games. And more are coming!

And we will be adding a permanent free games page, so you will always be able to come here and play for free, courtesy of Microgaming, whenever you'd like for as long as you'd like.

And thank you again to Siobhan for the delightful inside look at online casino support. Check back for future interviews!

Over the past six years of regular online slot play, we had noticed that we seemed to win more on the newest online slots, especially when we played new Microgaming slots in the first month they were introduced.

Then, in a recent poll about readers' favorite online slot games, Slot Secrets found out that many other experienced online slot players had noticed the same thing.

"I have noticed that I hit free spins much more often on the newest games," Sarah B. commented.

"I had my best month ever playing Quest for Beer when it first came out," wrote James T. (Quest for Beer is a new Microgaming bonus slot first introduced in May 2008.)

Carmen M. wrote that her biggest win ever was on Microgaming's Loaded bonus slot the first month it came out. "I hit free spins twice in my first 10 spins," she noted.

If you're an experienced slot player, you probably recognize pretty quickly when a slot has been set tight. And it's just as easy to recognize when the payouts are loose and frequent. Give the newest slots a try when they are first introduced, and let us know if you see what we're seeing.

Quest for Beer is a new 25-payline Microgaming slot game featuring Vikings, animated giants, stormy seas, and lots and lots of beer. New in May 2008. (Quest for Beer features free spins, an axe throwing bonus, and the gamble feature!)
