Three Strikes and They're Out

There was no joy in Seefeld after Day 1, the mighty Living the Dream team had struck out. Sadly, all three of the players from Intertops and Juicy Stakes bust during the first day of CAPT Seefeld.

Daniel Montagnolli, who was playing pretty aggressively for the early hours of Day 1 was the first to go. He bust at the first level. Chris Perkins was playing pretty tight but was prepared to get aggressive if and when the situation was right. At level 5, just before the dinner break, he went all in when he later realized he probably should have folded. And he was out. That left Tim O'Keefe as the only member of our team still at the table after the dinner break. Then, 11 hours after they first sat down, he was out too.

Living the Dream Team Warms Up for the Main Event at CAPT Seefeld

Living the Dream team members Daniel, Tim and Chris, were a little shaken after busting out pretty early in the 550 Euro tournament they played on their first day in Seefeld, Austria. They'd all won their way to Austria in online satellite tournaments at Intertops Poker and Juicy Stakes Poker. Good players. But that first day in Austria? Bad cards… weird moves by other players… What can you do?! Then after a good night’s rest – and a better understanding of how their competition plays -- they were optimistic about their prospects heading into the 2000 Euro Main Event that began Friday afternoon.

Tim was up to 42K at the second level and if that had held up he could’ve been sitting pretty. “Hey, I’m saving it all for the Main Event!” he laughed as his team mates consoled him in the casino bar afterward.

Chris was getting good cards early in the 500 Euro tournament he played as a warm up. He was up to 40K quite quickly. Then he made a squeeze play that didn’t quite work out. He shoved it Ace 5 suited in the small blind and was called by Ace-ten. He was out.

“I got my stack in with monster draw,” said Daniel after he too was out. “I opened with a straight on the flash draw. Unfortunately he flopped a straight.”

Daniel had committed himself to a check race and there was no way to fold. He was free to join the team in the bar to re-group and prepare themselves for the 2000 Euros Main Event the next day.

The Gamblogger Joins Three Online Players Living the Dream in Austria this Weekend

This week I'm with three online satellite winners from Intertops Poker and Juicy Stakes Poker who are in Austria for the 800,000€ CAPT Seefeld poker tournament. In the days prior to the Main Event Chris, Daniel and Tim played as many smaller tournaments and cash games as they could, taking the opportunity to check out their competition. They all agreed that the field is fairly soft and so were a bit disappointed not to have picked up some cash before the big tournament that brought them to the picturesque Tyrolian ski resort.

Video: Living the Dream: CAPT Seefeld, Episode 1 -- Checking Out the Competition

Daily video reports from CAPT Seefeld follow three online satellite winners from Intertops Poker and Juicy Stakes Poker at the 800,000 Euro tournament in Austria.

“It’s taken me awhile to get used to these European players’ style,” said Chris who came to Austria from Pittsburgh. “They all seem to be extremely cautious or extremely aggressive, not too many that fall somewhere in the middle like I do.”

“The structure of these smaller tournaments sucks,” said Tim O’Keefe from Texas. “They’re too fast. No time to get a read on the other players. I’m looking forward to the Main Event where we have more time and more chips to play with.”

“The way the Main Even is structured, you can easily grind because you get 50,000 chips and sixty minute levels. You don’t have so many showdowns like in the turbo tournaments,“ agreed Daniel, a local poker pro who lives in nearby Innsbruck.

“It’s so deep and the blinds increase so slowly so you can really play your hands and you’re not all in all that often. You’re always deep. That’s very nice!”

"Living the Dream -- no better way to describe this trip!” said Tim. “I've only been in Austria two days and would already say this is an experience of a lifetime! The amazing architecture, history and beautiful scenery have kept me so busy and excited, that I almost forgot we are here to play poker!! Haha It might be too amazing here to play as both Daniel and I have come up short, getting pretty unlucky in a couple of the smaller buy in events so far. No worries though, I'm convinced we are just saving all for the main event!”

“The people at Intertops have done an incredible job here,” he added. “They’ve gone above and beyond for us players. I cannot thank them enough!”

Intertops and Juicy Stakes Poker, the main online poker rooms on the Horizon Poker Network, have become well known for running online satellite tournaments sending winners to live tournaments in Europe and the Caribbean. Last fall, five online winners went to CPT Punta Cana together and right now there’s an online satellite tournament series in progress that will send five players to the TKPT tournament in St Maarten in April. The series continues until March 6th with Step 1 tournaments in the three-tier series (buy in $2 + $.20) every day at 11am, 2pm, 4pm, 6pm, 8pm and 10pm EST. From there, you can win your way to Finals held Sundays at 9 pm EST, where $3000 prize packages are awarded to the winners, or buy-in to those events for $100 + $10.

My Living the Dream: CAPT Seefeld video series will continue with video reports from the Main Event.

“The structure of this event is by far the best live tournament structure I have played with 50,000 starting stack and 60 minute blind levels. This structure favors my style so much. I really think this is going to be the tournament that is going to allow me more freedom with poker. I don't know why I am getting that feeling, but this just seems like my time.”

“I’m really looking forward to welcoming the team to my home turf!” said Daniel Montagnolli, an Austrian poker pro who was with the team in Punta Cana last fall and who will also be with them in Seefeld. “I love this area and I know they will too! CAPT Seefeld is one of the best stops on the Casinos Austria poker tour. There will be players from all over -- lots of professionals but lots of recreational players as well.”

Intertops Poker and Juicy Stakes Poker are the leading online poker rooms on the Horizon Poker Network.

Deposit this Week to Claim R2900 Leap Year Bonus February 29th

Sadie Hawkins Would Approve of the Leap Year Bonus at South Africas Springbok CasinoLeap Years come just once every four years and South Africa's Springbok Casino thinks such a special date should be celebrated. They’re offering a massive 2900 Rand February 29th Free Bonus on Leap Day next Monday. Everybody that deposits between February 22nd and February 29th can use coupon code FEB29-FREE to redeem a R2900 free bonus with a massive maximum payout of R3500 on Leap Day, February 29th.

Most people would be hard pressed to explain why there is an extra day in February. Explaining the Chinese calendar which adds a leap month periodically is even more complicated. One thing is for sure though: every fourth February there’s an extra day to play slots.

Video: South African online casino celebrates leap year with R2900 free bonus

Leap Day casino bonus has higher than usual maximum payout.

“What better way to spend this bonus day than doing what you enjoy most?” asked Springbok manager, Daniel Van Wyk. “To keep those reels spinning even longer, we decided to give our players a nice big free bonus for Leap Year!”

Ever since the 30’s when the L’il Abner comic strip character Sadie Hawkins decided the unmarried women of Dogpatch should have one day to chase bachelors and catch a husband, Sadie Hawkins dances, where women ask men to dance rather than the other way around, have been popular in North America. In the spirit of Sadie Hawkins’ hillbilly culture, Van Wyk recommends the casino’s popular Hillbillies Cashola, one of its hundreds of online slots and table games from RTG, all played in Rands with service in English or Afrikaans.

What Makes Online Roulette so Popular?


Online roulette is one of the most popular online casino games there is. It pulls a huge amount of players each day, with every respectable online casino having the classic table game in their repertoire. But what makes online roulette so popular with players? What keeps them coming back time and time again?

Online roulette offers the excitement of traditional roulette
But it emits the somewhat frantic nature of placing bets and abiding by table etiquette to allow players to get to grips with games and play at their own pace.
This is particularly useful given the rise of mobile players who are looking for a quick fix of roulette and may only want to bet on one spin of the wheel. This, generally, isn’t something you would do on a physical table where longer sessions are much more fun and rewarding.
Another bonus is the flexible chip values, which, depending upon your digital casino, can be set as high or as low as the player requires. Whereas in traditional casinos, minimum chip values will be determined by the house, which may put them out of budget for players with a smaller gaming bankroll. If you are looking to test the water, 32Red have a variety of user friendly games over at http://www.32red.com/games/roulette.
For those who are still looking for the traditional interaction with the dealer and other players around the table, there’s always live roulette, which replicates the best elements of physical roulette, but allows people to enjoy them from the comfort of their own home. In many ways, live, or video roulette, is more convenient that it's physical counterpart, which is why everyone from 32Red, to Jackpot247 carry a live video version of the game.
Roulette can be rebranded and revamped
Traditional casinos are exactly that - traditional. This closes them to innovation and the latest trends. The same cannot be said for digital casinos, who are generally at the forefront of gaming innovation.
It is also much easier for exciting sponsorship or advertising deals to be struck up with digital gaming service providers, with the best example of this being through the hugely successful roulette games that make use of massive progressive jackpots, which are becoming increasingly popular with the heavy hitters.
Part of its popularity is that it takes the tried and tested roulette format, loading it with exciting mini games and bonus features which brings the table game out of its traditional format, and draws in players who wouldn’t normally have an interest in roulette games. It also makes it possible to cash in on the accumulated jackpot by placing normal wagers, thus making the potential wins much higher.
In fact, research has shown that online casino gaming is the go-to method of gaming throughout the UK, with it seeing the most amount of interaction, surpassing even physical casinos and bookmakers, with part of this popularity no doubt being down to online roulette and how easy it is to pick up and play.

Video: WinADay Casino's new Wedding Bells penny slot has expanding wild and pick me bonus game

Unique casino has $8 freebie to try the new penny slot (until February 22, 2016 only)

Three or more Love Lock scatter symbols trigger a bonus game where players choose a series of objects to reveal cash prizes. Prizes are higher when the bonus game is triggered by four or five scatters.

“This may be a penny slot but it’s loaded with features,” said WinADay manager Michael Hilary. “It’s animated expanding wild helps create numerous winning combinations and players can win loads of extra cash in its pick-me bonus game.”

WinADay Casino now offers 18 unique penny slots and 32 one-of-a-kind premium slots. Including its 6 video poker games, Keno and Roulette, it now offers 62 one-of-a-kind casino games, most of them compatible with iPhones, iPads and Android smartphones and tablets.

Slots Player Says She Really Didn’t See Her $100,000 Winning Streak Coming

Liberty Slots Player Says She Really Didnt See Her Winning Streak ComingAlthough she said she didn’t have that “lucky feeling” that often comes before a night of casino games, a Liberty Slots Casino player ended up on an incredible winning streak, winning $100,000 in one amazing day.

"I actually didn’t feel particularly lucky that day. I was just really in the mood to play, so I did!” Elizabeth M. told one of the casino’s customer support staff. “I took a few spins on Cool Bananas, then Coral Cash. I went back and forth between the two with not a lot of luck at first. I hit a lot of free spins but no real wins until about an hour and a half into it. After a few decent wins I realized I was on a roll and increased my bets. I got quite aggressive for a while: $18.75, $25.00 and then up to $50 a spin.”

When Elizabeth switched to Cherry Blossoms, she had some good results and found herself with $10,000 in her account.

Player didn't really feel especially lucky but had amazing winning streak anyway!

“That’s when I decided to go for it!” she said. “I upped the bets to $200 and the wins started to come. I remember a few $2,000 and $3,000 wins. Then I went back to Cool Bananas because its free spins are great! All free spins wins are doubled and when you're betting $200 at a time that can really make a difference.”

She said she felt like any machine she touched would pay out.

“I played for almost twenty-four hours straight -- you don't want to quit when you're on a streak like that! My biggest wins were $15,000 on three separate occasions: Jurassic Slots, Green Meanies and the new one, Livin' the Life -- which is what I'm doing right now!”

The winner said the $100,000 will go towards paying some debts and then she and her husband will take at least one trip together.

“It’s always exciting to see a player have this much fun and win so much money,” said casino manager Mark Ramirez. “A vacation seems like a great way to enjoy her winnings. I don’t think she needs to go to Vegas, though, when she does this well at home on her computer!”

Liberty Slots offers unique slots games from Wager Gaming Technology. Its new mobile casino features thirty of the best games including Elizabeth’s favorites, Crazy Bananas and Cherry Blossoms. The popular online casino is well-known for its slots tournaments, generous casino bonuses and easy deposits and withdrawals for players anywhere in the world.

Get a 50% Bonus for Super Bowl Bets at AllYouBet American-style Sportsbook

He’s looked lost all season long, but Peyton Manning can come good in what could be his last pro game by grabbing his second Super Bowl ring in California this weekend.

The good news for punters is that AllYouBet American-style online sportsbook is offering a fabulous 50% bonus offer on deposits so that they can make the most of mighty Manning as MVP at +400 – or maybe blast their bucks on opponent Cam Newton, a big favorite at -143.

The Denver Broncos’ quarterback has rarely lived up to his billing since the road to San Francisco opened up in September, while injury problems have also led to widespread speculation – which he this week refused to deny - that he will retire after Sunday’s game.

However, the post-season is when the true greats stamp their authority, and Carolina Panthers could be the subject of one final Manning mauling at Levi's Stadium.

Looking at AllYouBet's lines, there could be real value with Manning’s handicap of –2 at –115 to be the QB to make most completions as he could score big irrespective of whether his team comes out on top or not.

With all eyes on the 39-year-old, AllYouBet is offering plenty more Manning markets ahead of Sunday’s game. Will his first pass attempt be complete? How many TD passes will he throw? What will be his longest pass completion in the game? And more…

As for the game itself, Denver has the experience to keep things tight and, with the league’s No.1 defense battling the No.6, scoring could well be kept to a minimum. That means that under 675.5 ‘Total Offensive Yards’ at -115 and 36-42 ‘Total Points’ at +400 could be good value.

With dozens of markets available, from yardages to points and everything in between, AllYouBet punters have a ton of reasons to make the most of their 50% bonus - which is on deposits up to $100 with code SUPERBOWL50 - between now and the start of Sunday’s game at 6.30pm ET.

AllYouBet offers competitive odds on all kinds of professional sports including football, soccer, tennis and hockey. Players from North America are welcomed with a $100 Welcome Bonus.

Can Peyton Manning live up to all the hype around him and lead the Denver Broncos to victory in California this weekend?

Intertops Sportsbook has Stake Back Offer on ‘First Touchdown Scorer’ Book

It may be all or nothing for the Carolina Panthers and Denver Broncos in Santa Clara this Sunday, but we get two chances of victory with Intertops Sportsbook. Intertops is offering the dozens of great markets that sports fans would expect and a couple of great Super Bowl betting bonuses.

As a special treat, Intertops - as it celebrates 20 years online - is offering an incredible deal in its ‘First Touchdown Scorer’ book, with losing stakes up to $100 returned as a free bet if the chosen player attempts a rush or makes a reception and is stopped inside his opponent’s 10-yard line before the game’s first TD is scored.

Super Bowl stake back offer and deposit bonus available at Intertops.

So take Cam Newton (+750) or Demaryius Thomas (+900) to open the scoring and win big if they do, but maybe pocket a free bet if they don’t! With nerves set to be high at the start, a look at either D/Special Team to score first is also worth considering (Carolina +1600, Denver +1800), while a Broncos win by 1-6 points (+400) looks hot in what will be a tight game.

“With Super Bowl markets covering everything from total points and highest scoring quarter to the coin toss and first coaches challenge, there’s great value and something for everyone at Intertops,” said Intertops’ bet manager.

To give players some extra cash for the big game, Intertops is giving one of its biggest bonus offers ever adding an extra 50% (up to $100) to customers’ deposits made right up until game time on Super Bowl Sunday.

After the game, 20 customers will each win a $500 free bet in the $10,000 Super Bowl Grand Prize Draw. To qualify for this draw, customers simply have to wager — pre-match or live — on any of the online sportsbook’s huge range of Super Bowl betting options. Every dollar wagered earns one ticket in the draw.

The full-featured online sportsbook offers competitive odds on dozens of wagering options on Super Bowl 50. Intertops Sportsbook, the world’s first online sportsbook, recently had a complete mobile-friendly redesign and now has more wagers and attractive new parlay options that ever before.
