Cherry Red is an exciting new casino launched in August of 2008. Less than a year old, it wouldn’t be unusual if Cherry Red were still trying to make a name for itself in the industry. But this casino comes to us from the same people who run Rushmore Casino, which has been a well respected casino for years and that accepts all American players. Combine good leadership with fancy software and an extensive array of games and you have a quality gambling platform, in this case Cherry Red Casino.
I recently created an account at Cherry Red and during the short sign-up process saw this message:
Play for fun or experience the thrill of betting real money!
This was a great reminder that people can play all the games for fun, no money is required. Of course, no money in means no winnings, but this still gives people a chance to get comfortable with the software before making a deposit.
Players will find more than 80 casino games in the suite, including all of the classics and more than a few unique slot machines. Baccarat, European Roulete, War, Caribbean Hold ‘em Poker, and Let ‘em Ride are a few of the games that aren’t hosted at every online casino, there are also 17 different Video Poker games. Casino fans know where the big bucks are, and that’s at the Progressive Jackpots; there are a total of seven progressives at Cherry Red, five of them attached to slot machines and the other two are Caribbean Stud Poker and Let ‘em Ride. The progressives have their own category in the software so players can find them easily.
The casino was made using Realtime Gaming software, a well established gaming system that provides people with a great interface and selection of games. Unique to Cherry Red, there is also an option to turn on Jazz music. Overall, players are in for a treat when it comes to the software at this casino.
I created my account and made a small deposit of $100. The reason I joined Cherry Red the night in question was because I had a sudden urge to play some Blackjack, and was happy to see that the casino has a bonus specifically designed for Blackjack and for new players only. Of course the generic welcome bonus matches a player’s deposit, even money up to $777, while the Blackjack bonus gives 200% credit in addition to the deposit, so I got a bigger bonus from the casino for taking the specialty promotion. Originally when I made the account I saw a simple message from Cherry Red:
You can claim your $777 welcome bonus at the cashier. Good luck, see you at the tables…
I had hoped it would be this easy, but no one can be sure until going through the process on their own. And sure enough, all it took was a few clicks of the mouse, I didn’t need to talk to tech support, get anyone on the phone, or write any e-mails. It’s important to me to feel comfortable during the sign-up process and while playing games, I don’t like funny business, and Cherry Red made me feel at ease the entire time. After I got going, I managed to lose almost all my cash at Blackjack, but was lucky enough to win most of it back at a few slotmachines.
I always did like Slotmachines more.
There is another unique feature for anyone who doesn’t want to download and install software on their computer. Cherry Red has an online flash version which is just as secure as the regular software. For all problems, customer support is available 24/7 via telephone or e-mail, but for a quick solution it’s best to just use the toll-free phone numbers.
After just a few minutes at their website and in the casino it’s easy to see why Cherry Red has quickly become one of those most popular casinos online. They offer great service, a large selection of games (which is growing at a solid rate), fun and lucrative promotions, and an exciting theme. Everyone looking for a new online casino, or perhaps their first online casino, should give Cherry Red Casino a try.
