Cirrus Casino Overview

As from their website:

Legally licensed and fully insured, Cirrus Casino online offers the most prominent casino games online including BlackJack, Baccarat, Caribbean Stud, Video Poker, Roulette, Slots and more. Our team of developers strives to introduce exciting new casino games every month. The software and infrastructure developed by Cirrus Casino online is the most technologically advanced in the world.

Cirrus Casino has been around from a while and are backed by the Real Time Gaming software, so you can expect to get a ton of action with the variety of games offered.

CirrusCasino.com Software Interface/Usability

The software used by Cirrus Casino is Real Time Gaming RTG which is one of the main online casino providers today. They have been around since around 2000, and have been trusted for many years.

Cirrus Casino offers a download version or a web based browser version. Ive always preferred downloading the software onto my computer, but it can be convenient for those who like to just bookmark and play. One nice feature is the actual size of the download. You will notice that it downloads very quickly and installs fast as well. This is because it does not install every game onto your computer. In order to play the games you have to download each invidiously in the lobby. This was never a problem and only took a few seconds for each game. This is actually good for the serious players who will probably only play blackjack anyway (since slots are just like burning money!)

I never experienced a problem using the software at Cirrus Casino and everything seemed pretty flawless. The lobby is nice, and not to flashy like some sites that have tons of promotions and banners being displayed. Everything is organized by the type of game at the bottom of the lobby into different categories; Table Games, Slot Games, Video Poker Games, Specialty Games, and Progressive Games.

If you select Rules and Tips at the top of the lobby, you will be taken to their website which shows every game they offer. However it doesn't really give any rules or tips, just talks about the games. I would like to see some tips or maybe a blackjack chart like some other online casinos offer.

While playing blackjack I never once experienced a problem, but did notice some things I did not like. They do not have a warning to help prevent mis-clicks, which I thought was a big disappointment. Even though it is rare, you can accidentally press “hit” instead of “stand” on your 18 and it will not prompt you with an “are you sure?” window. Many other online casinos had this feature. Also they only offer 2 hand blackjack, where other sites can offer up to 5 hands at a time.

The history feature can be useful, but I found it pretty hard to follow. You can look through every dollar you wagered, what your hand was, and the dealers cards. It uses a picture format and you can not (as far as I know) get a text format. It would also be nice if it showed the action taken and not just the cards.

Cirrus Casino Games, Variety, & Blackjack

Cirrus Casino offers a decent variety of games and slots which can be played by download or through your browser. For table games, you will find 6 varietys of Blackjack (Regular BlackJack, Super21, Caribbean21, MatchPlay21, FaceUp21, and Pontoon), Baccarat, Pai Gow Poker, War, Red Dog, Let 'Em Ride, Three Card Poker, Vegas Three Card Rummy, and a few more. They also offer American/European Roulette, 9 different Video Pokers, Craps, Keno, and over 40 different slot machines.

The only offer one progressive game, which is Let 'Em Ride. At the time of this writing the progressive jackpot stands over $200,000, but it is the biggest sucker bet offered. For an extra dollar each bet you can make some extra money if you hit a flush or better, and take the whole bacon if you hit a royal flush. This is one the biggest losing bets as the odds are well out of your favor. There are no other progressive games or slots offered.

If you only plan on playing blackjack, here are some rules they have laid out: BJ pays 3:2, Insurance pays 2:1, Dealer hits a soft 17, You can double any cards, only 1 card when splitting Aces. Of course the rules vary between games, and some include surrendering while others do not. Once nice feature is the rules slide bar at the table. You can press this to see all the payouts and rules for a specific game so you do not forget.

Cirrus Casino offers 9 different types of video pokers, some with different payouts and options. You can see the difference between them by loading the games and looking at their payouts. You can even play up to 100 hands at a time! (See picture below). This is like multi-tabling on steroids.

Betting limits for the blackjacks are $5 minimum and $250 max. This can actually be pretty frustrating as most sites offer a $1 minimum, so if your bankroll isn't very large for $5 bets you might want to save this room for later. Bacarrats limits are $2 - $250, Let 'Em Ride $1 - $200, Three Card $2 - $250, and slots start at $.01 up to $100 per pull.

Cirrus Casino Bonus & Other Promotions

The element that has made Cirrus Casino world famous is their $25 no-deposit bonus. Free money! You simply download the software, click cashier, and enter the coupon code NEWPLAYER. You must wager $500 before cashing out, but ANY game counts towards the wagering requirements. You must send Cirrus Casino a clear copy of a government issued ID to cashout. Unfortunately, the maximum you can cashout without depositing is $100. Additionally, Cirrus Casino will only send your pay out using the e-wallet, UseMyWallet, if you are in the USA. If you are outside of the USA Cirrus Casino will only payout no-deposit winnings using Neteller and Click2Pay. Players from Australia, Finland, Denmark, Israel, China, Italy and France are not eligible for the free money promotion.

Cirrus Casino also offers many different bonuses and reloads, depending on your game. They offer bonuses for only slot players, table games, blackjack, and mixed. The best first time deposit bonus they offer is the 200% up to $200. Use the coupon code JVK9U when depositing. If you deposit $100 your account will be credited with $200 extra. Here are some terms and conditions for earning this bonus:

Please note that in the interests of fair gaming, we require you to have wagered a minimum of 20 (twenty) times your deposit and bonus on Slots and Keno. Play through is 40 times on any other game. Maximum cashout on this bonus is $1,000.00. The sign-up bonus amount is an appreciation for our customers and you can play and win on the bonus but bonus money itself is non-cashable and will always be deducted from your winnings at payout approval.

They require you to play some slots and keno, which is pretty lame, because the odds are heavily in their favor for that game. If you plan on whoring this, just keep your bets to a minimum and hope to run good!

Be sure to check your email weekly! There are also 50% and 100% reload bonuses offered, which use similar terms above. This casino offers so many different types, percentages, and bonuses it would be impossible to list them all here. Please view the Cirrus Casino website under promotions and chose the one that is right for you!

While playing for real money you will earn Comp Points. They are earned at the rate of 1 point for every $500 wagered and can be converted back into cash. This is a loyalty program and will reward the people who play more, in a “rakeback” sort of sense. You have to have a minimum of 5 comps to cashout, and 1 Comp point = $1. This can easily be done under the cashier. I have seen much better comp programs offered, but I have also seen rooms that don't offer any at all!
