'For the median transaction size of 226 bytes, this results in a fee of 101,700 satoshis' - which is currently around ~$4.5.

I agree with most points, but I don't think it's totally safe and secure. Bitcoin casinos are very risky, as it's decentralized we can only hope the owner is an honest person, otherwise he can run away with everyone's money anytime. What sustains the decentralized world is the "Trust Pact" between its users, if it's broken, everything is in Crypto-Currency is broken.

Payments in bitcoins is quicker and i think cheaper since there will not be a lot of charges on the part of the Casino's,Most casino's and even forex companies are leaning towards bitcoins due to the fact that it totally removes fraud from the system and there protects the customer and the house at the same time.
