你是否怀疑网上赌场游戏的公平性和安全性？你是否担心你的赌博资金被盗？对于这个问题，你怎么消除疑虑呢？我想没有人真正可以确切地知道网上赌场是不是公平的，安全的。可能100％的玩家都是“怀疑论者”。

　　谁说赌场管理并没有改变在特定的机器里正在播放的源代码芯片，并在现实中，只给予玩家10％的回报？谁说一个网上赌场的源代码没有得到来自第三方测试机构的公平认可，或者说假球员或雇员因为一些“特殊的利益账”而踢假球？

　　这些声音很小，不是吗？好了，虽然这些合理的问题，有合理的答案。这些合理的答案可以减轻他们的思想，让他们相信自己可能找到一个安全的网上赌场。

　　软件：当软件开发商把赌场软件售给网上赌博以后，网上赌场经营者有权设置赌博软件的相关参数，但不允许随便窜改。在一些赌博司法管辖区，甚至会有赌场监察员对此进行监察。 网上赌场如果改变了老虎机软件的源代码，赌场监察员可以通过在线审查和测试出来。为了确保您得到最公平的赔率，网上赌场软件会转到第三方软件认证平台。第三方软件认证平台有测试技术系统（TST），认证展览会赌博（CFG），普华永道会计师事务所，BMM博彩协会和国际。

　　经营许可证：为确保网上赌场被适当规管，重要的是，网上赌场必须拥有一个有信誉的游戏管辖权许可经营证。在英国可以颁布网上赌场经营执照的有：哥斯达黎加，直布罗陀，奥尔德尼岛，马恩岛，卡纳威克，库拉索以及荷兰的安得列斯群岛及马耳他。

　　赔付比例：许多网上赌场需要经过eCOGRA认证，并且网上赌场每个月都应该将公布其网站在上月的支出百分比，而这些数据也需要经过第三方审计。相对于所作的投注额，90％是万万不能的，虽然更具竞争力的数量大约是96％，如果一个软件认证平台不支持一个网上赌场在他们的网站上发布报告，建议不要选择此网上赌场。

　　译文

　　How do you really know that an online casino’s games are fair and that you are not being blindly stolen from? For that matter, how do you really know a brick ‘n mortar casino is on the straight and narrow? Well, I suppose nobody really can know 100% for sure they are getting the fairest hand possible. The number of “skeptic” questions and conspiracy theories, is – theoretically – endless.

　　Who’s to say casino management hasn’t changed out the source code chip in the specific machine you  are playing, and in reality, is only paying off 10 percent? Who’s to say the source code of an online casino doesn’t get manipulated after having received a fairness accreditation from a third party testing house, or that fake players or employees are not given “accounts with special benefits” generating higher than average payouts so that overall payouts are balanced out come audit time?

　　Sounds bleak doesn’t it? Well, although these are legitimate questions （questions you should be asking yourself, mind you）， there are legitimate answers that should ease any doubts of players thinking that they might be getting an unfair hand. Here is the minimum of what to look for when searching for a safe online casino to play at.

　　Software: While software can be altered after it has been licensed to online casino operators, there are certain gambling jurisdictions that do not allow for RNG manipulation. Just as there are tamper-proof mechanisms that land-based casino auditors use to tell if a brick ‘n mortar casino has altered software source code on a slot machine, online auditors and testing houses can identify the same. Go with a third party accredited software platform to ensure you are getting the fairest odds possible. Respected third party auditors include Technical Systems Testing （TST）， Certified Fair Gambling （CFG）， Price Waterhouse Coopers, Gaming Associates and BMM International.

　　Regulation/Licensing: To ensure that an online casino is being properly regulated, it is important that it is licensed by a reputable, accredited gaming jurisdiction. Costa Rica is NOT a reputable gaming jurisdiction. England, Gibraltar, Alderney, Isle of Man, Kahnawake, Curacao （Netherlands, Antilles） and Malta are.

　　Payout Percentages: Many online casinos, such as eCOGRA certified online casinos, will publish payout percentages for the previous month on their website. These should be prepared by third party auditors, such as those mentioned above. Payout percentages confirm the amount of money paid out in relation to the amount of wagers made. Anything under 90% is totally unacceptable, although the more competitive number is around 96%. If an online casino using a fairness accredited software platform does not publish payout reports on their website, contact their customer support center to receive last month’s copy. If they will not supply it to you, think twice before playing there.
