Lucky Red Casino Support & Security Review:
If you ever have a problem at Lucky Red Casino, which hopefully you won’t, you’ll find several ways to get help. First off, simply fill in the e-mail form on the Lucky Red Casino site and they will get back to you. When this was tested, the reply was timely and very helpful. What more could you ask for?
Lucky Red Casino also have telephone support, although only one phone number, which is disappointing when many of their competitors have different phone numbers for different countries. The same can be said for their fax number. However, the staff you get in contact with are very knowledgeable about their product, which is a definite plus.
There is also a physical address in England where you can get in touch with Lucky Red Casino should the need arise.
Finally, the main feature of the help software is the live chat help, where you will get a well trained member of staff to deal with your query. I found the staff very helpful and very courteous.
However, the FAQ could be a bit better and easier to navigate. If you were looking to find the help for yourself without speaking to a member of staff, you might have a bit of a time.
As for security, Lucky Red Casino have been in the game a long time and have a very secure method of dealing with transactions and do to great lengths to ensure you have the most secure experience possible on their tables.
Review Score: 4/5
Lucky Red Casino Bonus Review:
On the surface, Lucky Red Casino’s 400% first deposit looks great. However, in reality, it’s not so good if you’re not a slots player. Yes, you can get 400% on your first deposit up to $4,000 and there is a 25x clearance requirement, which is a very generous clearance rate compared to the opposition, although it can only be cleared on slots, keno and scratch cards.
If you’re not a slots player, Lucky Red Casino offers a 100% match bonus up to $1,000 which has a far greater clearance rate of 50x and this can be cleared on any table game except Baccarat, Craps, Roulette, War and Sic Bo .
The other good thing about Lucky Red Casino’s bonuses is that there are reload bonuses all the time, with much smaller clearance requirements and a greater scope on what games you can play to clear them.
The bonuses offered are play bonuses only and, as such, cannot be withdrawn upon clearance, which does detract slightly from the overall rating.

Lucky Red Casino Software Review:
If you couldn’t tell from my pre-amble before this, I love the Lucky Red Casino software. However, let’s get one thing out of the way: I’m a Windows used and if you’re a Mac user, you won’t be able to download this great software, you’ll only be able to play the games on the Lucky Red Casino site.
But if you’re a Windows user, you’re in for a treat. The Lucky Red Casino software oozes class and style. It has a very minimalist feel to it and it can feel like you’re not using casino software at all until you open up one of the tables. The black and red motif is great.
Away from the aesthetics, the software is fast, very responsive and instead of menus dropping down, you have to click to get to the sub-section of games you want. In all honest, I prefer this, as it means you don’t have to get your mouse in the exact place to choose your game and if you move it slightly, you’ve downloaded pai gow instead of roulette. There is also the option of changing the view, so you can have it as a list, as icons, or as a slideshow of each game. Such a great feature of the software.
There are other little neat features in the lobby such as the “random game” button, which does exactly what it says on the tin. Not sure what to play, just click on it. There are also featured games at the side of the screen, where one click will take you to them and they relate to the section you’re in. So, in the table games section, they might have blackjack and craps featured.
The browser-based software is great, better than a lot of Lucky Red Casino’s rivals and it has a nice selection of games for you to play, meaning if you can’t download the actual software, you’re not missing out on too much. Plus, you still get to see the fantastic lobby.
The software is one of my favorites out there and it’s a real shame there is no Mac client, as I would be able to give it the 5/5 that it really deserves.

Lucky Red Casino Games Review:
With over 20 table games and enough slots machines to keep you going for a long, long time, Lucky Red Casino has something for everyone. There are six variations of blackjack, several incarnations of poker, from Caribbean Stud to Caribbean Hold ‘Em.
But the slots are where Lucky Red Casino seems to shine. They’re great looking slots, with a unique feel to them and they’re a welcome change to some of the more boring slot machines out there.
As well as the traditional games, Lucky Red Casino also has the Asian games you would expect to find and also have scratch cards and keno for those of you that like that thing.
Review Score: 4/5
Lucky Red Casino Promotions Review:
It’s so near yet so far for Lucky Red Casino. While they shine with their deposit bonuses, which are nearly every day of the year, there is very little outside of that. They do offer the standard comp points which can be redeemed for cash.
There is a fair selection of progressive jackpots at Lucky Red, with table games and also slot machines offering some form of progressive jackpot if that’s your thing.
There is also a refer-a-friend scheme at Lucky Red, which is a nice touch. There is a $50 reward in that scheme, which isn’t to be sniffed at.
Review Score: 3/5
Overall Lucky Red Casino Score: 3.8/5
Is red lucky
Well, if you’re Chinese, there is no luckier color. They believe that the color red can exorcise spirits, demons and the like, so it’s seen as the luckiest color there is. There are superstitions of gamblers wearing red underwear just to be lucky, but it’s not just in gambling, it’s in all walks of life for the Chinese. If you’re experience a bit of bad luck at the tables, you could do worse than try out the Chinese superstition that red is lucky, even if you just wear red socks!

The US-friendly Lucky Red Casino isn’t just for the serious gambler, however.
There is a fantastic amount of games available to play whatever your bankroll is and the amount of bonuses for new and old players is perhaps the jewel in Lucky Red Casino’s crown.

At the time of writing Lucky Red Casino is about to start offering slots tournaments with buy-ins starting at $1 and prizepools relative to how many players there are in the field. Because of the size of the customer base available and how popular these tournaments can be, you can expect the prizes to be quite considerable.
There are two main bonuses at Lucky Red Casino.
First up, there is a 400% slots bonus up to $4,000. So, deposit $100, get another $400 on top of that. At first look, this is an exceptional first deposit bonus and, in terms of size, it really is. There are few casinos out there that offer a bigger bonus. However, in terms of clearing it, there is a 25x wagering requirement to clear it, which isn’t bad, either. But the one thing is that it can only be cleared on slots, keno and scratch cards. However, if you’re a slots player, there really isn’t many better bonuses out there and it is strongly recommended.
Secondly, for you table game players out there, there’s a blackjack/video poker bonus of 100% up to $1,000. So, deposit that $100 and get a $100 bonus on top of that. The downside to this is the size of the clearance requirement. At 50x, it’s a bit of a task to try and clear it, add to the fact you can’t clear the bonus playing Baccarat, Craps, Roulette, War and Sic Bo and there are better bonuses out there. However, not many casinos will go up to $1,000 on a match bonus, which is a good showing from Lucky Red Casino.
Finally, Lucky Red Casino also offers various daily depositing bonuses, some with lower clearance requirements that the first deposit bonuses.
In short, you’ll always get some sort of bonus when you put your cash into Lucky Red Casino, but remember to check the clearance requirements when you sign up to see if they suit you and what games you like playing.
All bonuses are “play bonuses” only, so you cannot withdraw them once you have cleared the required amount.
