3JL made the kind of strong, enticing first impression I like to see when I’m reviewing sites here at ThePornDude, but it did so in a different way than I’m used to. Most of the time, I’m excited to see naked girls bouncing their tits, exhibitionist sluts getting pounded and a fair share of kinky fetish tomfoolery. Today, I was greeted by an image of a grinning, cigar-chomping shark decked out in wraparound shades, face tatts, a bullet belt and a big stack of cash. It wasn’t actually the cartoon that excited me, but the text beside that predatory, debaucherous fish: 3JL does monthly giveaway mystery jackpots of “Up to 3 Billion”. I wasn’t even sure yet what currency we’d be dealing in, but with digits like that, it had to be a huge reward. (Spoiler alert: this place pays out in Philippine pesos.)
I looked all over the place, trying to figure out what exactly the numbers and letter in 3JL stand for, and I’m sorry to tell you that I still have no idea. I can, however, tell you that 3JL.com is a Philippines-based online casino that’s been seeing a recent rush in visits from eager gamblers. Beating off ain’t my only vice, so I decided to take a look and maybe bet some cash between my regular morning fap sessions. If you’ve been curious about this joint, read on and I’ll tell you what I found.
I’ll be using the web version of 3JL for this review, but it’s worth mentioning that they’ve got an app available, too. The APK file for Android is a direct download from the website, while the iOS link grabs a configuration profile. Not to sound like too much of a cynic, but I really don’t like fucking with mobile apps that ain’t available in the official Apple and Google stores. The shops just have higher standards for app safety and security, even if they might take anti-porn stances I don’t agree with.
Check Out These Perks and Bonuses
Before I really get into it, I should probably tell you who’s eligible to play. 3JL describes itself as “Asia’s leading online casino,” but outside of the Philippines, most Asian countries are blocked from even getting inside. I wasn’t able to find a list of countries they’re permitting to play, but through some experimentation with my VPN, I can tell you the whole place is pretty restrictive. Fortunately, I’m in Cyprus today, where I didn’t have to conceal my location just to get in the door.
Once you get inside, you’ll see that rich shark along with some of their current promos. There’s a shitload of competition out there in the world of online gambling, and these guys stand out with a fantastic selection of bonuses, benefits, deals, and rebates. I always recommend checking out the Promos page on any casino because they don’t necessarily list everything out front, and man, I was even more impressed with the list than I’d expected.
Right now, they’re offering daily login games and lotteries, a free registration bonus, instant betting rebates, daily slot rebates, game loss rescue benefits, and a little extra just for downloading the app. New members get a 118% bonus on their first deposit, which I’d say is one of the most immediate reasons for getting signed up today. I haven’t even listed half the perks on the 3JL.com Promotion page, so seriously, make sure you check it out and claim whatever’s applicable.
Funding My Account and Getting Ready to Play
The very second I registered my 3JL.com account, they gave me my first daily attempt at smashing the golden egg for nearly 9 million pesos. The one small catch is that I had to either add my full name or make my first deposit, both of which I was going to do anyway. I am here to gamble, after all.
The site doesn’t have simple, baked-in crypto support, but they do have a decent little range of banking options. As of this writing, you can fund your account using GCash, Maya, GrabPay, or online banking with UnionBank or LandBank. I looked around for a way to switch my preferred currency, but everything’s in pesos around here.
While you’re funding your wallet, make sure to check out the Reward section of your Personal Center. On top of my daily golden egg smash opportunity, I also had a lucky roulette for new members. Again, there were some requirements before I could spin the wheel, but it’s all stuff you’re going to be doing anyway. The countdown timer says I’ve got a year to complete the tasks and try my luck, but I have a feeling I’ll be spinning it later today.
And Now onto the Games
Once I had money in my 3JL.com wallet, it was time to win some more—or at least try! I always check out the most accessible games first, and man, they had me covered. There are thousands of virtual slot machines to play. No shit, the selection spans nearly 300 pages, encompassing damn near any theme you can image. Spin a classic fruit machine, go after some pirate booty, delve into the mines or play while a cartoon frog laughs at you.
This is one of the only online casinos I’ve played at with a whole section dedicated to fishing games. I’ve seen them on the other sites, but usually they’re rolled up with some of the other non-slot games. As an international website reviewer, it’s always interesting to see how vice cultures differ around the world, whether I’m looking at porn sites or gambling ones.
Another nice surprise was the selection of virtual poker games. I often feel like these rooms are understocked with options on other casinos, but 3JL has dozens of different virtual poker machines. That alone makes the platform an easy recommendation for fans of the game.
A Top-Shelf Live Game Setup
3JL.com wasn’t quite done impressing me with its offerings yet. I made my way to their Live section, assuming I’d have a handful of options from the same provider or two. That’s how most of these joints operate, but these guys go above and beyond. They’ve got live games from ten different providers, which is easily one of the best selections I’ve ever seen.
My one complaint about the setup is that you have to browse the games by provider, rather than by the games themselves. The good news is that they’ve got them all, from roulette to blackjack, dragon tiger to baccarat, sic bo to dice, and of course, poker.
I was so excited about that massive, expansive range of live games that I almost missed another one of the platform’s major draws. You can also bet on all kinds of sports and esports. Again, they’ve rolled in more options than I usually expect. I feel like the setup might be a tiny bit overwhelming for newbie gamblers, since a lot of those options feel like they’re virtually the same. By the same token, experienced wagerers can play exactly how they want. Gamblers are always telling me about their own personal systems, oh so close to perfection, so here’s your chance to refine the formula even more.
It's a damn shame that 3JL.com is so restrictive when it comes to who they’re allowing to play. Between that big-ass menu of promos and the wider variety of games than you find elsewhere, this one’s an easy recommendation to all kinds of gamblers. They’ve got the casual stuff like slots and fish, live and virtual versions of your favorite table games, and the opportunity to put money down on all your favorite teams. The live game setup is one of the best I’ve seen out in the wild, giving you the chance to play with a whole host of providers under one roof. The first-deposit bonus is generous, so why not take advantage of that and see where it leads you?
