Editor's Note
If you like to play any type of casino game, then you should enjoy the selection of games here as well as appreciate the English Harbour welcome bonus. This casino has one of the highest percentages of returning players, so it shouldn't come as a surprise that the English Harbour Casino is rated highly among the many players who have submitted their own views to us. The editor of this website has stated many times, that this is his personal favourite casino to play at. The ownership group is known for their integrity and swift service.
This casino group owns more than just the English Harbour Casino. The casinos are all the same except the website names, website designs and the welcome bonuses. Today's top bonus can be found at the Millionaire Casino, so if you will be making a deposit larger than $250, than you should play there instead and get up to a $2000 initial bonus and an extra $3000 in your next two deposits. Note: You are only allowed to open one account among all of their casinos, so you should not go to casino to casino looking for another great welcome bonus.

Gaming
If you download the software you will be able to play at sixty-six slots, seven different video poker games and twenty-four table games. The no-download version at the English Harbour Casino has a slightly smaller amount of casino games, but all of the most popular casino games can be played there as well. The house edge greatly varies depending on the type of casino game you are playing, but the pay out ratio seems to average between 97% - 99% for most of the casino games when playing with a bonus. This is done by reducing the play through requirements for casino games with a higher house edge.

Slots
Some of the best Internet slots can be played here. There is over 66 slot machines including 21 bonus slots, 9 three reel slots, 5 progressives, 16 video reel slots and 15 traditional slot machines. The most popular slots is the Dave Devil Dave, the Money Shot and the Cash Grab slots. The progressive slots with the biggest jackpots is the Pay Dirt which has a $400,000+ jackpot and the Red White and Win slots which has a jackpot over a million. All of these slots can be played with your welcome bonus without a discounted rate. Playing with a bonus, you will increase the pay out percentage from 95.4% pay out percentage to 97.7%, decreasing the house edge by 2.5%. This works out to an average loss of 2.3 cents for every dollar wagered or a loss of $1 per spin when playing $43.49 per spin.

Video Poker
There are 7 different variations of video poker games at the English Harbour Casino and four of them are available in the flash version. This doesn't seem like much, but it is all you really need. Instead of having many different video poker machines that are slightly different from each other, the English Harbour Casino decided to offer just the best video poker games with attractive pay out tables. You can play single-hand or multi-hand video poker machines. Video poker games here include, Aces and Faces, Jacks or Better, Deuces Wild, Deuces and Joker, Double Joker, Joker Poker and 10's or Better. Your play at the VPM's will be discounted to a 20% rate towards your bonus, but that will still increase the pay out ratio from 98.9% to 99.4%. This should result in a long term loss of 0.6 cents for every $1 wagered or a loss of $1 for every $166.67 wagered.

Table Games
Some of the more well known casino games include Blackjack, Roulette, Craps, Let Them Ride and Tri-Card Poker. There is also some new and unique table games here including Casino Hold'em Poker, 5-Card Mulligan Poker and 10-High Hold em Poker. Each table game has a different pay out ratio and play through discount. In general, the games with a lower house edge will have a bigger discount. The majority of table games will pay out 97% to 99% after the welcome bonus is taken into account. You can play all 17 table games and 7 specialty games with your welcome bonus. That is completely different then before, because up until 2009, you could only play slots and keno with your bonus.

English Harbour Review

Casino Overview

This is probably the most improved casino since we started our original reviews. The casino games haven't changed a whole lot, although some of the new slots are really fun to play, but the big improvement is in the welcome bonus. Previously you could only play the slots and keno with your bonus. Now you can play whichever casino game you feel like. This is a huge plus for anybody who likes to play video poker, blackjack or any table game. In less than six months, this casino has gone from being one of the worst Internet casinos for video poker and blackjack, to being one of the premier online casinos for any casino game. There is plenty of games to play while using your $800 in welcome bonuses including, 24 table games, 66 slot machines and seven video poker machines.
