Over $700,00 in Casino Bonuses Awarded During Slotland's 13th Birthday Celebrations

Players Cash In On Over 700K in Bonuses During Slotlands 13th Birthday CelebrationsSlotland.com has been celebrating its 13th anniversary this month and to mark the occasion they've already given away over $700,000 in casino bonuses. And there’s more where that came from!  You have until midnight October 31st to claim your free $50 no-deposit casino bonus when you log on to the no download casino.

At the end of the month, another $8500 in birthday prize money will be awarded. All players who deposit and play slots in October automatically collect points, one for every $10 wagered. The fifty players with the most points will win cash prizes up to $2000 -- $8500 in all. (Some restrictions apply and are given on the site.)

“We expected a big turnout for our birthday party, but we’ve been much busier than anyone thought!” said Michael Hilary. “We paid out more in bonuses than we anticipated -- but a lot of people had a lot of fun and that’s what birthday parties are all about, aren’t they!?”



Slotland.com is one of the oldest and most trusted video slots sites in the world with some of the most original slots online. All month birthday greetings have been pouring in from players that have been entertained at the one-of-a-kind site over the years.

“I just wanted to say thank you for all you do to take care of your customers and VIP players as myself,” said Lynn Y. (1963CENTERCAP). “It’s hard to find such outstanding service. Happy birthday to you from your player for life!”

“Glad to see such an honest gaming site,” wrote Jerome Y. (JERRYJJ3) “Happy birthday and have many more! I never win much but lots of good play and fun. Many more HAPPY BIRTHDAYS!”

Slotland’s progressive jackpot is currently over $150,000 and hasn’t been hit since June. Since it’s usually won before it gets that high, and seldom goes more than six weeks without a major win, there could very well be a massive jackpot win before the birthday month is over.

Slotland has 22 no download slots and video poker games and none of them can be found at any other online casino. Six, however, are also available as mobile slots.

Lucky Club Casino Launches on New Nuworks PlatformLucky Club Casino (www.luckyclub.eu) launched on a new software platform today, bringing its players a mind-boggling suite of entirely new online casino games. The casino’s new “metro-style” design appeals to the iPhone / Windows8 generation that has been attracted to the trendy, upscale site.

“We wanted something new and better for our players,” said Lucky Club Casino Manager Alex Hunter. “We are sure they’re going to love the new metro-style look and they’re definitely going to be blown away by the new games we’ve got on offer. These are brand new games that they won’t have seen anywhere else – they’re amazing!”

Initial reaction to the slick new design and the brilliant new games has been overwhelmingly positive.



“This is great, a sweet new set of casino games to play. Love it!” said one player on re-opening day.

Lucky Club management assures players that, although the games are all new, there is still the same strong commitment to friendly, efficient customer service and hassle-free withdrawals and deposits for players around the world.

$180K WinADay Jackpot Won This Week by Grandfather Who'll Pay Some Bills and Then Have Some Fun with Winnings

WinADay Jackpot Winner Will Pay Bills then Have FunWinADayCasino.com jackpot winner Joe H. says he’ll use some of his $184,060 jackpot win to pay off some bills. He’s also thrilled to be able to help his grandchildren with their education. But the self-employed grandfather said he also plans to set plenty aside to enjoy playing casino games and to do some Christmas shopping.

The winner was playing the new Pyramid Plunder slot machine on Monday when he spun the winning combination. Fortunately he had at least $5 wagered on that lucky spin.

“I just had a feeling, when I sat down to play on Monday. I had a hunch it was going to be a good day,” he said. “I often just wager five or ten cents a line so I can keep playing longer. But when I’m feeling a little bit lucky like that I often bet a little more. So I had $1 bet on ten lines when up came all those Pharoahs!”



One of the instant casino’s biggest online slot machine jackpots this year

Although the WinADay jackpot was hit for a record-breaking $225K in June, the average win is about $160,000 making the latest win one of the largest this year. All but one of WinADay’s slots games are tied to one progressive jackpot but this is the first time it’s been won on Pyramid Plunder.

“It’s going to be hard not to splurge on my kids and grand kids this Christmas, that’s for sure,” said the winner. “But I think even once a few bills are paid, and I’ve put some away for my grandchildren’s college fund, I’ll still be able to afford to be generous.”

Pyramid Plunder has been one of Joe’s favorite games since the instant casino it launched last November. It’s a 25 pay line slot machine with three opportunities to win bonuses: an animated Scarab beetle that gives a second chance for a winning combination; a Mummy that shifts its reel down by one or two symbols to create additional winning combinations; and the Chamber of Treasures bonus game where players can win cash and free spins.

WinADayCasino.com is a no download casino with 27 one-of-a-kind slot games and video poker games. Its progressive jackpot was reset to $50,000 following last week’s win. At its sister site, Slotland.com, the jackpot is currently over $160,000.

WinADay players interact with each other and receive special casino bonuses on Facebook: www.Facebook.com/WinADayCasino.

Canucks Goalie, Luongo, Taking Shots for Endorsing Poker Site

The star goalie for the NHL's Vancouver Canucks is also an avid poker player. Last month he started appearing in television commercials for PlayNow.com, an online poker site operated by the British Columbia Lottery Corporation. As a role model for kids, he's being hotly criticized for becoming a spokesperson of such a "dangerous" activity.  One critic went so far as to say he might as well be encouraging kids to smoke!

What bothers me about the ad is that it suggests that you can actually play against Luongo on the site. That seems possible but not too likely  ;)

This CBC story includes a video clip that shows the "offensive" ad:  http://www.cbc.ca/sports/hockey/nhl/story/2011/10/17/bc-luongo-poker-endorsement-controversy.html


What do you think? Should he have turned down this opportunity?




Punta Cana Poker Classic Makes Marked Improvements

punta-cana.jpgEvent organizers for the Punta Cana Poker Classic announced today the implementation of improvements to this year’s event based upon feedback from their inaugural tournament in 2010 . The improvements will include adding a professional dealing staff with World Series of Poker experience, and opening up the cash game room to run 24 hours a day.

The Punta Cana Poker Classic is an annual land based Texas Hold’em poker tournament held at the Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. The event will have a $500,000 Guaranteed Prize Pool and be preceded by a $100,000 Guaranteed High Roller Backgammon Tournament.

“We acted upon the feedback from all of last year’s participants,” commented Punta Cana Poker Classic Tournament Director. “We want to get better every year so we made sure to institute the changes that the player’s wanted. These changes will ensure smoother gameplay and allow our players to play cash games night and day.”

Players from last year’s event felt that the tournament could use a more seasoned dealing staff as well as no closing time for cash games. As a result, the PCPC staff will open cash game room to operate around the clock, and will be flying in a dealing staff from Las Vegas, all of whom have World Series of Poker experience.

“We’re thrilled with the new changes and believe this year’s event will defy expectations,” continued the representative. “The ambience of expectation is very nice since we have a lot of surprises and hope that players and their guests have a ball.”

The 2nd Annual $500,000 Guaranteed Punta Cana Poker Classic will run November 8th to 13th, 2011 at the luxurious five-star Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in the Dominican Republic. The $3,500 package includes a $1,500 + $150 buy-in to the main event, 5 nights stay with all inclusive premium food and beverage, $500 towards airfare and $1,500 hotel credit for spa golf and tours.

Happy 13th Birthday to Slotland, One of the First and Still One of the Best Online Casinos Anywhere

Fun is Secret to Success as Slotland Celebrates 13th Birthday with $8500 Birthday DrawHappy birthday to one of the very first -- and still one of the best -- online casinos! This month Slotland.com, one of the world’s most trusted online casinos and home of some very popular no download slots, celebrates its 13th birthday. Slotland's dedication to keeping players happy has set the standard for the entire online casino industry.

$8500 in Birthday Casino Bonuses Available

At the end of the month a random draw will award $8500 in bonuses to 50 players that have deposited between October 11th and 30th. The top prize winner will receive $2000. $50 no-deposit bonuses for current and new players and up to 100% Birthday Builder match bonuses keep the birthday party going this week. Next week there’ll be 50% match bonuses during Birthday Happy Hours Friday and Saturday evenings.



“I remember the first time I played at Slotland,” said Jessica V. who’s been playing at the video slots and video poker site since the early days. “The internet was so new then – remember dial up?! I’d never seen anything like Slotland and I’d certainly never gambled online before. I just stumbled onto Slotland with a friend one night. Back then there were only a couple of simple games – not like what they have today – but it was the most fun either of us had ever had with the computer and, well, here I am thirteen years later still spinning the reels at Slotland!”

“A lot has changed in that time,” she recalled. “The internet is so much faster and the games are so elaborate now! Some things will never change though -- Slotland still has some of the sweetest customer service people anywhere!”

“You know what would be a great way to celebrate this milestone?” asked Slotland’s manager, Michael Hilary. “I’d love it if we had a big progressive jackpot winner right in the middle of the birthday party! In the time I’ve been with Slotland it’s only gotten this high a couple of times and to have a record-breaking jackpot this month would just be icing on the birthday cake!”

Slotland’s progressive jackpot is currently over $150,000 and hasn’t been hit since June. Since it’s usually won before it gets that high, and seldom goes more than six weeks without a major win, Hilary could very well get his birthday wish. The last big jackpot win was on the Witch’s Brew slot machine but since all slots games are tied to one jackpot the next winner could be playing any of Slotland’s 22 one-of-a-kind games.

Slotland is a no download casino. None of its instant-play casino games can be found at any other online casino but six can also be found at Slotland’s mobile casino.

New Monster Mayhem Slot Machine Adds to Halloween Madness at GrandeVegasCasino.com

Grande Vegas Casino Launches Monster Mayhem Slot Machine in Midst of Halloween Madness Cash Back Casino BonusesAs if all the casino bonuses they're offering during their Halloween Madness celebrations weren't enough,  Grande Vegas Casino has launched its new Monster Mayhem online slot machine and is giving players a bonus of up $100 just to try it out.

“I guess maybe we did go a bit crazy with bonuses this month,” said a Grande Vegas Casino spokesperson. “Blame it on Halloween!”

The new Monster Mayhem from RTG is a 50-line slot machine with a giant reptile, an enormous pink rabbit and a hulking orange cat stomping and crunching their way through the urban jungle.

The giant, animated city beasts “Smash” and “Crash” trigger the re-spin feature, with the reels spinning up to 10 times. During re-spins, prizes are multiplied by 1 in the first re-spin, by 2 in the second, by 3 in the third and so on. A “City” is the Scatter symbol. Scatter wins are added to line wins and multiplied by total bet.

Independent Minor and Major jackpots are triggered totally at random.

To claim their 100% (up to $100) casino bonus, players just enter the coupon code “MONSTERMAYHEM” when they make a deposit. This bonus is available only until October 21.

In more Halloween Madness at Grande Vegas, three lucky players will be randomly chosen at the end of the month to receive a cash-back casino bonus refunding everything they deposited in October. Many more will receive surprise bonuses when they check their casino message centers this month.

There are more than 300 casino games to choose from at Grande Vegas Casino, including slots, blackjack and roulette. Several slot machines with progressive jackpots over a million dollars are among the most popular. Someone playing Jackpot Pinatas could win nearly $1.7 million. On Aztec’s Millions the progressive jackpot is currently over $1.3 million. The Midlife Crisis/Shopping Spree jackpot is just over a million and Cleopatra’s Gold is over $275K for a total of over $5.2 million in the jackpot pool.

New 'Chinatown' Slot Machine at WinADayCasino Gives Extra Playing Time with Free Spins and Two-Penny Bets

Free Spins on Chinatown Mean Extra Fun for Online Slot Machine Players at WinADayCasinoWinADayCasino.com has added another new game to its collection of one-of-a-kind online casino games. Chinatown is an exotic tribute to the bustling Chinese communities that have developed in major cities around the world with noodles, lotus blossoms and Ming vases spinning on its five reels. Chinatown is a 21 pay line video slot with an expanding Wild symbol and chances to win up to 15 free spins. Players can bet from $0.02 to $4.00 per pay line and win up to 1000 times their bet.

“Some of our latest games, like Fair Tycoon, have quite elaborate bonus games built into them,” observed WinADay manager Michael Hilary. “This one just has lots of good old fashioned free spins to give players more playing time for their money.”



Three or more Lantern symbols anywhere on Chinatown’s reels triggers five free spins. Four Lanterns wins ten free spins and five wins fifteen free spins. The total win from free spins is shown on a special display and is transferred to the player’s cash balance once all the free spins are played.

An animated Sword is the Wild symbol. It expands onto the entire reel and substitutes for any other symbol on a pay line. Unlike other slots where the Wild appears only on certain reels, this Wild symbol can appear on any of the five reels making the win even juicier.

This week a series of special slot tournaments celebrates the launch of the new game. Everyday the top five Chinatown tournament players will receive bonuses up to $150 from a total slots tournament prize pool of $2400. Until Sunday, everyone playing the new game is automatically entered in the tournament and listed on the leaderboard.

Chinatown celebrations continue on the 19th with a $19 no-deposit bonus. Top Bettor prizes up to $500 will be awarded next weekend and deposit bonuses up to 35% will be available October 22 – 23.

Like most of the slot games at WinADay, Chinatown is tied to the site’s progressive jackpot which is currently over $170,000. In Chinatown, spinning five Bronze Head symbols with a bet of at least $5 wins the progressive jackpot.

WinADay is a no download casino with 27 unique games including slots, video poker, Keno and Roulette. Like all of the casino games at this innovative online casino, Chinatown is available only at WinADayCasino.com.

Intertops Sportsbook Has Patriots a 9 Point Favorite Over the Jets in NFL Week 5

Intertops Sportsbook NFL Week 5 Focus on Patriots Jets in AFC East Intertops Sportsbook anticipates heavy NFL betting this weekend since several teams are under such intense pressure to perform in Week 5. Every dollar wagered when rivals New York Jets and New England Patriots come face to face this weekend to battle for position in the AFC East -- and on every other NFL game this season, for that matter -- gets one entry in Intertops’ free Super Bowl contest.

“The Jets-Patriots game is the one to watch this weekend, I think,” said an Intertops spokesperson. “The Patriots’ offense is great, but their defense may not be as strong. The Jets have disappointed so far and are now under pressure to perform.”

The top attraction in the NFC should be Green Bay’s visit to Atlanta. The defending Super Bowl champ has come roaring off the blocks this season with four straight wins, but Matt Ryan and the Falcons should prove to be a stern test, especially at the Georgia Dome.

Intertops has the Patriots a 9-point favorite over the Jets and gives the Packers 5.5 points over the Falcons.

Other NFL bets seeing a lot of action at Intertops Sportsbook are the Eagles-Bills and Lions-Bears games.

“The high expectations in Philadelphia have yet to be fulfilled and Buffalo is arguably the sensation of the season so far – it promises to be an intriguing contest.”

“After two big comebacks against the Vikings and the Cowboys, Detroit is favorite to win again at Chicago, but if Jay Cutler can finally gets the Bears offense going they could be quite a threat.”

Intertops Sportsbook posts more NFL bets than any online sportsbook. One player betting on NFL football is going to Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis February 5th in style. Every dollar wagered on Intertops’ NFL bet offers during the Regular Season earns one entry into the end-of-season draw for an amazing Super Bowl XLVI prize package that includes accommodation at a top hotel, two reserved top tickets to the game, plus expenses for flights. Intertops current Super Bowl odds have just been updated following Week 4 play.

Many others have come and gone since Intertops took the very first online bet fifteen years ago but it’s still one of the most popular and most trusted online casinos, poker rooms and sports books in the world. It continues to earn its reputation for courteous and efficient customer service and hassle-free deposits and withdrawals every day.

Intertops Casino Begins Dishing Out $60,000 in Halloween Treats

Intertops Casino Ghosts and Goblins Race to Climb $60K Halloween ScoreboardHalloween is still a few weeks away but  Intertops Casino players have already started collecting their favorite candy bars in the popular online casino’s $60,000 Trick or Treat Halloween Scoreboard.

“There are no tricks at Intertops this Halloween – just treats!” said the casino manager. “All players have to do is play our games and they’re automatically on our scoreboard. Hundreds of players will win hundreds of dollars in casino bonuses, just by playing!”

Intertops Casino will reward 200 players in two weekly draws each week in October. Another $7,500 Jackpot (including $3,000 in cash prizes) will be shared among the top eighteen players at the end of the month. In total the casino will award $60,000 in casino bonuses during its Halloween celebrations.

Win or lose, Intertops Casino players automatically earn points whenever they play any of its more than 300 casino games. The top players are ranked in six levels (named, this month, after popular candy bars) based on their deposits, wins and losses. They have all month to accumulate points and prizes will be awarded November 3rd. Players can check the online Scoreboard any time to see their current points and where they rank.
“I’d play here just for the selection of games and the million dollar jackpots,” said one regular player. “But who doesn’t like getting free money in your account so frequently?! I’ve always found Intertops to be more generous with bonuses than most online casinos.”

At the end of the promotion there are Halloween Scoreboard final prizes in addition to the casino’s weekly Monday and Thursday draws. Standard wagering requirements for bonuses apply. Further information and current player rankings are available at: http://casinopromotions.intertops.eu/october2011

While many others have come and gone since Intertops took the first online bet fifteen years ago, it is still one of the most popular and most trusted online casinos, poker rooms and sports books in the world earning its reputation for courteous and efficient customer service and hassle-free deposits and withdrawals every day.
