Download Only
One of the first things you’ll notice about Tiger Gaming.com is the fact that it doesn’t offer online play for most of the casino games. As per the information on screen, this is ‘Coming Soon’, but we can’t help but feel this is something the developers should have ensured was ready before going live with the website.
This means that players have to download the desktop version to their device in order to have a wager, which is nothing if not a rather annoying requirement. Indeed, some people will even be put off altogether by this necessity, and head off to pastures new for their digital gambling kicks. We didn’t though, so read on and see if it was worth our time and HDD storage.
Welcome to the Casino. Or Not.
Sadly, not having an option to play online also means not having any real information available about what’s on offer in both the Casino and Live Casino sections of the site. Suffice to say there will be table games, and slots, with the brief information included advertising how both are well sticked and ready for you to dive right in. Nevertheless, both are missing from the website itself, and it wouldn’t have taken that long to paste in some thumbnails to show off what titles are available. Again, not many people are going to be that thrilled about having to download the app just to see what it contains, as such we’re going to have to mark it one down.
Real Racing
If there’s one aspect of the site that is quite clear in terms of its overall offering its in the Racebook. This is really something else, offering live betting on horse racing at some of the world’s most prestigious courses, all waiting for you to come along and join in the betting fun.
What’s more, there’s actually more benefits from making your bet through Tiger Gaming than there is through being on site and in the thick of the action. For starters, doing the digital do allows you to place your bet right up to the moment the gates open and the stallions stampede out. Secondly, there are daily head-to-head match-ups to stick your money on, adding yet more adrenalin fuelled fun to the occasion.
Do You Play Sport?
If the answer is yes then this is definitely the right place for you. It’s possible to stick some cash down on everything ranging from Basketball and Boxing, through to Snooker and Soccer, or Football as the Europeans call it. Better yet, you have access to both foreign and US leagues in all disciplines that enjoy popularity abroad, which is definitely handy in the latter case considering the biggest leagues in the world for football are all on Europe.
Overall, this is one of the most comprehensive live sports betting systems we have ever come across, revealing everything about the team or athlete/combatant, ranging from average points or goals through to the spread. You really don’t have to spend any more time in one of those smoky rooms inhabited by undesirables anymore in order to get your fix of live sports betting, and for that we can only thank Tiger Gaming, the handful of other sites that manage to hit the nail on the head for sports bets.
What Is a Financial?
It’s a good question, and one we’re not necessarily in a position to answer just yet, because again without the download this section of the site is empty. However, logic and our overall knowledge of betting would suggest that this is as it sounds – the ability to bet on the financial markets, predicting which shares will plummet and which will soar.
Clearly there are some ethical issues around this, meaning it’s not for everyone. When stock value drops real people lose real money, and sometimes more, and nobody really wants to celebrate someone else’s misfortune. Nevertheless, it’s not as though your live betting on the FTSE action is actually going to be able to impact on the markets themselves, and by playing the shares game properly – i.e. buying and selling stock – you actually wind up affecting the inherent value anyway. So what’s the problem in this instance? Exactly- none.
Anything Else?
You betcha, no pun intended. Hit the Promotions tab on the top of the home screen and you soon begin to realise that there are plenty of offers and deals designed to both reward you for spending money, and make you feel inclined to spend more money.
Unlimited Bad Beat Jackpot, for example, sees a $100,000 jackpot grow with every hand dealt, until one lucky winner bags the lot and the pot returns to 100K. First time depositors get a $5,000 Freeroll on poker, which basically means you can win loads for not very much at all. Meanwhile, everyone gets 100% on top of their first deposit of $50 or more – i.e. the casino will double what you put in over 50 bucks. The list could go on further to include more deals but let’s just say that with eight in total – ranging from leaderboard challenges to reduced rates of buy-ins for specific games on specific days, this is one of the best selections of promotions we have ever seen. Ever.
