"Sharp Vision. Flawless Cut. Brilliant Returns." Evocative logo, isn't it? Launched in November 1997, the 3 Diamond Online Casino is older than 95% of the other casinos online, a testament to their durability if nothing else. Though 3 Diamonds offers all the usual casino games you're likely to find anywhere else, they claim to be, "Your best choice for video poker and slots".
Three (optional) email newsletters keep players abreast of all changes and updates to the system, including reminders of upcoming promotions and tournaments, new jackpots, etc. 3 Diamonds Casino also has a multi-player poker room, through CS Poker, for an invigorating change of pace.
Overall Grade: 68%

Bonuses & Promotions
3 Diamond Online Casino participates in the multi-casino Peak Rewards loyalty program - along with Sands of the Caribbean, 49er, Omni, 1on1, and Caribbean Sun Poker casinos - rated Top Comp program by Gambling Online Magazine. Another promotion - arguably a shady one, but still… - is their 15% Vote For Us bonus for players who vote for 3 Diamonds to win Gambling Online Magazine Awards, plus each voter will get an additional $10 for every category 3 Diamonds Casino wins. Interestingly enough, I see no sign up matching bonus offered on the site.

Software & Graphics
3 Diamond Online Casino uses Cryptologic software to run its games. A step-by-step Flash-animated Getting Started tutorial makes downloading and installation a breeze. Compared to many of their competitors, 3 Diamonds' version of 3D graphics seems fairly flat and nearly 2D to me. But the functionality and playability is nonetheless smooth, simple, and speedy. Their No Download casino uses Java rather than the more commonly seen Flash. And FYI: Cryptologic's payouts on Video Poker and Blackjack specifically are its highest, and among the highest in the industry.

Games
Over 80 games are available for your entertainment and, hopefully, financial gain, including the $100,000 jackpot Break the Bank. Besides offering access to a multi-player poker room, 3 Diamonds also has multi-player Blackjack, Baccarat, Poker, and Roulette. Their roulette tables, by the way, are the American Version. And for all newbies to casino gambling, internet or otherwise, their game previews and guides are so thorough as to make any player savvy enough to win on their first try.

Payouts, Cashouts & Security
3 Diamond Online Casino uses ECash Direct to handle all financial transactions, a service that supports about 8 different standard and alternative payment methods. An enticing incentive to play here is the option to receive 10% cash back on all losses at 3 Diamonds with Bettor's Insurance. As with most of their competitors, 3 Diamond Online Casino posts their payout tables as calculated by an independent 3rd party reviewer.

Their site comes equipped with a meaty FAQ as well. Unfortunately, the live chat feature is only available from 8am-12am EST.
