I'd be concerned about running an online casino with a .com domain. The US government has a track record of seizing domains.

But this is what is really interesting about it. If the US government moves to shut this casino down, are they admitting that bitcoins are money?
we are not a casino. this is a tiny side product built by a couple of guys over a couple of days to explore bitcoin.
Why are you not a casino? People gamble with bitcoins and can win more bitcoins. Your site describes itself as "Win Bitcoins playing classic exciting gambling games at our Bitcoin Casino. Fair and Verified Games. Instant Withdrawals."

My apologies if I've mischaracterized you, but a casino is "a public room or building where gambling games are played." bitino seems to clearly be an online variant of that.
