    on the policie page it says Site may not include such types. im guessing this means not on your site at all. or does it mean no adsense on gambling pages?

    It says in their program policies at: https://google.com/adsense/policies that their ads may not be placed on sites with gambling or casino related content.

    Correct. Which is going to give you more revenue is the decision you have to come to. If you are going to make more from the casino pages by running other ads then I would keep them and monetize them differently, but if Google is making you more money then I would find other ways to generate traffic.

    Hi,

    Gambling content in Adverts:.

    I want to know if anyone knows how to trick Google into editorially validating adverts for a Gambling Website. Mentioning keywords such as millionnaire or winning amounts of cash is obviously not allowed. Has anyone got any tips to hand?

    Cheers

    Yea take your crap elsewhere. You are at the wrong forums for this. We do things honestly here and appreciate it when people ask relevant questions that are about things that are legitimate. Being as this is your second post I hope you get the meaning of this and post more sensibly from now on.

    I think you misunderstood my question. I am asking for information as to exactly what is, and is not, accepted by Google in relation to Gambling advertising. I see that there are many companies advertising this type of site, so Google have not found it to be illegitimate.

    Id like to know if anyone has experience in figuring out how to not be refused. Perhaps there are some creative solutions that I have not yet found or perhaps there are some golden rules I have missed.

    This is because they apply with an acceptable site and then place them on their illegal sites. Once Google finds out that their TOS have been broken the Account holder is banned for life and collects nothing.

    Thanks for your reply. For anyone who is interested I have gained a some information directly from Google who have explained what the problem is. Basically even on free sites it seems you are still not allowed to let people win money (even if its free to play and join, such as a sweepstake). Any kind of money game could be dissapproved. Although they say that its possible to advertise a place where games are held, or books etc about winning money.
