Before you start gambling at any new online casino, it would be very much worth your while to check out a few simple details about the casino site. Hey, you’re trusting them with your money, so they should disclose certain key information to you! Knowing this information in advance could save you some headaches.
* Is the casino licensed?
To qualify for a license, an online casino must meet certain standards set in the country where the site is hosted. License fees start from about $50,000 and are usually valid for at least 2 or 3 years. According to estimates, some 20% of online casinos don’t have licenses. Here’s the golden rule: If they’re not licensed, don’t play there!
* Does a reputable accounting firm certify the payouts?
A casino that values its good name will commission an accounting firm to audit and report on the percentages of payouts. PriceWaterhouseCoopers, for instance, reviews the historical payouts to gamblers by Microgaming and its licensed casino sites. You can usually read the reports on the casino websites.
* Does the casino belong to a reputable watchdog organization?
There are watchdogs and just plain dogs; you can’t trust all of them. Many times the so-called “watchdog” is nothing more than an online advertising gateway to a group of casinos. If the watchdog organization is any good, it will prepare a set of best practices that must be observed by all participants, including casinos, software dealers, casino portal sites and online gamblers.
Here are a few more things you should check out before you start gambling:
The important gambling message boards should reflect trust and faith in the casino.
Any online casino should be affiliated to a physical, non-digital casino.
There should be a self-labelling system for users to rate the contents of the casino site.
The recognized and well-known casino portals should support the individual casino website.
A casino that intends to succeed in the long term will go to the trouble of building a well-structured site supported by reliable software.
It will be monitored by an accounting company, and of course it will be licensed.
This is the type of casino that doesn’t have to crook its customers to make a profit. It’s the type of site operated by owners who honestly and professionally work to entrench a trusted and popular brand name.

There are hundreds of people involved in an online casino/cardroom site.
It's not much different than a big online site like eBay. Wouldn't eBay just have "electrons and software" keeping everything running?
You need lots of programmers to implement the new features that are constantly being churned out. You need lots of network engineers to make sure the site is up 100% of the time (one hour of downtime can mean hundreds of thousands of dollars of lost revenue).
I don't blindly make deposits on online sites. I generally use word of mouth as my guide. I generally know people who have made deposits and withdrawals at poker sites before I decide to play.
Why would someone want to sell a business like that? It's hard work and you are under constant scrutiny by the law. Just look at the Grand Jury Investigation going on right now:

Would you want to be under investigation because of your day to day job?
