Grande Vegas Casino Players Enjoying Message Center Advent Calendar Surprise Bonuses

On top of all their regular deposit bonuses and raffles, Grande Vegas Casino is getting in the Christmas spirit with its Message Center Advent Calendar. Each day until Christmas, when they log on and check their casino messages, players will find casino bonuses and other holiday treats such as tournaments, recipes, poems, Christmas-themed games and festive surprises. Counting the days until Christmas has never been this fun.

“We can’t really give our players a chocolate every day until Christmas like the Advent calendars we had when we were kids,” said a Grande Vegas spokesperson, “But I think they’ll enjoy our 25 days of Christmas treats just the same.”

Although Grande Vegas has more than 300 casino games – slot machines, video poker and table games like Roulette and Blackjack – the new 50-line Monster Mayhem slot machine has been one of the most popular since it launched recently. It features a giant reptile making its way through a city, and 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 a re-spin feature and there are randomly triggered Minor and Major jackpots.

The three million-dollar jackpot slots at Grande Vegas are also very popular. Jackpot Pinatas is nearly $1.7 million, Aztec’s Millions is over $1.3 million and the Midlife Crisis/Shopping Spree jackpot has topped a million. Cleopatra’s Gold is over $280K. The total jackpot pool currently waiting to be won is an incredible $6.2 million.

“We’re really encouraging Badbeat.com players to form teams and take advantage of this opportunity,” said Joshua Rowat, Player Relations Coordinator at Badbeat.com. “This is just the kind of competition our poker training system prepares players for.”

Badbeat.com, the original and leading poker staking site, has been sponsoring and mentoring promising players since 2005. Last summer it made its revolutionary new MyGame poker training system, modeled on that experience, available free to anyone that wants to learn, win and transform the way they play.

Access to tutorials, the unique hands analysis tool, Report Cards, and Social gaming features are all free after registering a new account with any of Badbeat’s partner poker sites. An iPhone app enables MyGame poker trainees to compare Report Cards with others enrolled in the program and even get advice and access training videos from their phone.



The Las Vegas Team Challenge III live final is to be held at the Genting Club Star City, Birmingham, 3 – 4 March 2012 and will broadcast on a web stream. The winning team gets a $48,000 Las Vegas travel package and the runner up team wins a $12,000 European package.

Tournament information and registration is available at http://www.lasvegasteamchallenge.com. Players that haven’t yet enrolled in the free MyGame poker training system or registered at PokerEncore.com should first go to Badbeat.com.

Custom Bonuses at New Bet-at.eu Great for Serious Casino Players

If you're a regular at online casinos and if you've ever thought that most casino bonuses are geared for new players, not frequent players, check out the new Bet-at.eu. It's a new online casino designed with frequent players in mind with features like customizable bonuses. With nearly 200 no-download Chartwell casino games and many more soon to be added, Bet-at.eu offers an incredible selection of state-of-the-art online casino games. Although Bet-at.eu is new its management team brings many years of casino operations and customer support experience to the new company.

“Having observed and had feedback from so many players over the years, we know that players have very different playing habits,” said Casino Manager Igor Samardziski from the company’s European headquarters. “One size doesn’t fit all -- what seems like a great bonus to one player may not really suit another player as well. So we put our heads together and created a unique bonus program that gives the greatest benefit to each player.”

Bet-at.eu offers a fully customizable bonus program that enables active players to choose bonus options that match their playing habits and maximize their rewards. For example, the “Starter” package is for new players making small deposits whilst players that usually make deposits over €50 can choose the “Mid-Roller” bonus package and get a bigger match bonus on their first deposit. Those that tend to make larger deposits might prefer the “Platinum” bonus package which has a lower wagering requirement. It also gives a massive First Deposit Bonus up to $1500 and a bigger match bonus on the third deposit of the month. Many players play only slot machines so choose the “Slots” bonus package which gives a 150% first deposit bonus and larger bonuses on smaller deposits.

Most importantly, if none of these bonus combinations is perfect for them, players can also mix and match benefits to create their own individual bonus program.

“I like the way you can see where you’re at with your bonuses so you can change them if you want,” said one of the first players at the new casino. “And you can always see how much you’re winning compared to how much you’re spending. That’s a good reality check.”

The jackpot pool at Bet-at.eu is currently over €360K. The largest progressive jackpot is the 3x Bonus Spin & Win slot machine which is currently over €258,000.

Slotland Jackpot has Hit $200K and is Overdue for Win

It hasn't gone this high for quite awhile, but Slotland’s progressive jackpot reached a record level yesterday, topping $200,000. Since it’s overdue for a big win, the popular video slots site is keeping its check book handy, ready to make another massive payout.

Slotland’s last major jackpot win was in June. Since it’s usually hit every six or eight weeks, staff and regular players feel like a big win can’t be far off.

“Our jackpot isn’t like those million dollar jackpots that never seem to have a winner,” said Slotland manager Michael Hilary. “Our jackpot is hit so often that when it goes this long without a win the whole office is on the edge of their seat!”



“I quit pumping my money into slot machines with million dollar jackpots that no one ever wins,” said Jessie M., a regular Slotland player. “When I play slots I like to think I might actually win!”

The Slotland jackpot is hit quite frequently but it’s only gone over $200,000 once before. That was in March 2009 when a British dad won a record-breaking $200,011 playing the Heavy Metal slot machine. The most recent major win was in June when another lucky player won $128,000 on Witch’s Brew.

There are currently 23 instant-play casino games to choose from at Slotland and none of them are available at any other online casino. All of the slots games are tied to the same progressive jackpot so it can increase very quickly.

To celebrate American Thanksgiving this weekend Slotland is giving all players a
45% deposit bonus on Thursday and Friday.

Slotland.com has been offering one-of-a-kind no download slots and video poker slot games for more than thirteen years. Slotland games are also available as mobile slots that can be played on iPhone, iPad and Android powered devices.

At Slotland’s sister site, WinADayCasino.com, the jackpot was just won a few weeks ago for $184,000 but is already over $100,000.

Liberty Slots Brings Back Popular Online Slot Machines Like Cleopatra's Pyramid and Agent Cash

Liberty Slots has revived some of the most popular online slot machines in its online casino.

“Cleopatra’s Pyramid is a classic online slot machine that’s been popular for many years,” said George Jones, manager of Liberty Slots Casino. “So we’re very glad to be able to bring it back for online casino players everywhere. Judging by the feedback we’ve had so far, a lot of players are pretty happy to have a place to play Agent Cash and Real Deal too – and so are we!”



Liberty Slots Casino is being extremely generous with casino bonuses, especially to frequent players. New players get a 100% bonus on their first deposit and are automatically enrolled in the Liberty Slots Rewards Club, a six-tier rewards program based on comp points earned by wagering. At the Diamond level players receive a 35% bonus on each and every deposit they make and up to 100% on Friday deposits.

Liberty Slots offers more than a hundred slot machines and casino games including blackjack, roulette and craps and hosts daily tournaments. Attentive customer service is available around the clock, seven days a week via toll-free phone, email, live chat and even by Skype.

Lucky Club Casino Slots Feature Jackpot Pyramid Bonus Game

Lucky Club Casino offers dozens of all new online slot machines that you probably haven't seen anywhere else yet. Three of them feature the Jackpot Pyramid Bonus Game that gives players extra playing time for their money – and a chance to pick up some extra cash. They have one massive progressive jackpot -- the Monster Millions jackpot is one of the largest online slots jackpots anywhere.  They also have major and minor random jackpots on most of their slots. So they're really getting to be known as a casino jackpot destination!

Three of Lucky Club’s brand new slots offer the Jackpot Pyramid bonus game: African Skies, Greek Goddess and The Duck Ages. It’s a five-level, interactive progressive jackpot game with top bonus prizes currently over $75,000, triggered randomly when playing the main game. You can increase the odds of triggering the bonus round by increasing their Jackpot Pyramid side-bet. The default odds are 1 in 30, but increasing the bet can improve those odds to 1 in 6.



Once in the bonus game, you start at the lowest level of a spectacular Mayan pyramid with fierce jungle warriors guarding the riches hidden inside. On each level you select from a row of gold vaults to uncover precious idols. Each pick awards an instant bonus prize up to 500x the default bet. Finding a gold idol instantly completes that level and wins the jackpot for that level. Green idols earn another pick and a red idol ends the bonus round.

As I said, the biggest progressive jackpot at Lucky Club is the Monster Millions jackpot which is currently over $1,000,000 but that's not the only progressive jackpot at this new casino. The Clown Jackpot on Carnival Cash is over $10,000 and Campers Cash has a $3000 progressive jackpot – being hit regularly.

Sporting a trendy metro-style design to appeal to the iPhone generation, Lucky Club Casino offers 30 all new online casino games including video slot machines, video poker games (Deuces Wild, Jacks or Better, Joker Poker) and table games (Baccarat, Blackjack, Let ´em Ride, Tri Card Poker).

iPhone Generation Attracted to Lucky Club Casino's Metro-style Design

The reviews are in and the new Lucky Club Casino is getting lots of complements for its easy-to-use interface. Reviewers call it "user-friendly" but players just think the metro-style design is… cool. The clean lines, modern colors and Apple-esque typeface mimic the look and feel of modern devices and are designed to appeal to the iPhone generation. The trendy setting is home to more than 30 all-new online casino games, including the Monster Millions online slot machine and its million dollar jackpot.

“Younger customers who live on their iPhones and iPads have completely different taste than traditional online casino players,” said Lucky Club manager Alex Hunter. “We wanted the ‘i’ generation to feel right at home in our casino. “



“Comparing our casino to typical online casinos is like comparing The Golden Nugget to the Palms Hotel or Hard Rock Hotel!”

Players are quickly spreading the word about the new casino. Reviewers have also been impressed by its user-friendly interface. AskGamblers.com said “Lucky Club Casino uses a panel-based interface on its website resembling a tablet-based grid. This is one of the most user-friendly graphical interfaces we've seen so far, and it's a clear sign that Lucky Club Casino is very focused on using new technology to make online gambling both easier and more accessible.”

Lucky Club Casino has 30 video slot machines, three video poker games (Deuces Wild, Jacks or Better, Joker Poker) and four table games (Baccarat, Blackjack, Let ´em Ride, Tri Card Poker). New online slots African Skies, Greek Goddess and The Duck Ages feature the 5-level, interactive progressive jackpot game “Jackpot Pyramid”. Lucky Club’s million dollar Monster Millions Jackpot is one of the largest online slots jackpots anywhere.

One in a Million Re-launches TV-Game-Show-Style Online Betting Game

After extensive customer feedback, One in a Million has re-launched with additional features including an integrated chat system, improved graphical content and games that run every hour. One in a Million is an online betting game reminiscent of the popular TV game show Deal or No Deal.

Andrew Denbigh of One in a Million said, “Players love the television game-show format of One in a Million. For as little as a penny they can take a seat in the studio audience and have a chance to win big money.”



Regulated by the UK Gambling Commission, One in a Million (OIAM) is a new peer-to-peer online feature game that fuses elements from other popular games like bingo, poker, the lottery and game shows like Deal or No-Deal. New game features bring together the ease and playability of bingo, the nerves of steel from poker and a deal or no-deal feel, where users can leave the game at any time (as long as they are still in play).

One in a Million is a multi-player game with unrivalled odds. Quite simply it is a player vs player random elimination game. Players can buy up to 9999 seats per game for a cost of 1p, 10p, or £1. Over a 10-round period the seats progress to win prizes. In each game the prize pool is made up by those that have entered with a maximum prize pool up to £10,000, £100,000, and £1,000,000 respectively. Throughout the game players have the choice to collect your prize at the end of each round. However by choosing to continue to the later rounds they have a greater chance of winning larger cash prizes. The greater the risk, the higher the reward.

Slotland’s New Fruitmania Slot Machine Features Free Bonus Spins

Slotland's last few new video slots have mythical design themes and elaborate built in bonus games, but they've gone back to basics for their latest release. The new Fruitmania launched this week is a more traditional pub-style slot machine complete with cherries, lemons and bars. Its Bonus Meter is a fantastically simple bonus game that gives up to 15 free bonus spins.

As usual, Slotland is giving players some free casino bonus money to take a spin on the new game. The first time they log on between tomorrow and Sunday players will find an extra $30 in their accounts. Then this Friday and Saturday Fruitmania ‘Bonus Builder’ casino bonuses kick in giving a 40% bonus on players’ first deposit, 60% on the second, 80% on the third and 100% on fourth.



Fruitmania is a 5-reel, 15 pay line online slot machine where players can bet a minimum $.20 and maximum $4.00 per line. Payouts are up to x480 for flaming 7s and up to x1500 with that old slots standard, the venerable “Bar”. 5 bars with a minimum $10 bet on the spin hits the site-wide progressive jackpot, currently approaching $200,000 (and considered well overdue by Slotland regulars).

There are 5 bonus features illuminated on the big bright Bonus Meter next to the reels. Spinning "Level Up" scatter symbols lights up one level on the Bonus Meter. Hitting three "Bonus" scatter symbols activate the highest bonus feature reached so far (or accumulated...). When players reach the top level of the Bonus Meter, hitting three "Level UP" symbols triggers Fruit Mania, the highest bonus feature.

All spins are free spins during the bonus round and “+1 Bonus Round" symbols add extra bonus spins. “Fruit Mania x15” is a special bonus combination that activates at least 15 free spins and pays out on any combination of fruit symbols.

Slotland.com, which recently celebrated its 13th anniversary, now offers 23 no download slots and video poker slot games. Unlike all the boring “cookie-cutter” slots online, each of Slotland’s unique casino games is one-of-a-kind and not available anywhere but Slotland. Slotland also offers a collection of unique mobile slots for iPhones, smart phones and tablets.

Lucky Club Introduces New Million Dollar Jackpot on Monster Millions Slot Machine

There are very few seven-figure online slots jackpots out there but Lucky Club Casino has just given online casino players another million dollar jackpot to shoot for. LuckyClub.eu is pleased to bring it to present the new Monster Millions slot machine (which currently has a progressive jackpot of just over a million dollars) alongside 30 other completely new online casino games.

Monster Millions may be their biggest jackpot but it's certainly not the only jackpot to be won at Lucky Club. Several of the slick new casino’s new games feature the Jackpot Pyramid bonus game which keeps the monster fun happening longer and can multiply wins. Many of the casino’s slots games have random Major and Minor jackpots.



“As the jackpot network grows this jackpot will increase quickly,” said Lucky Club manager Alex Hunter. “It has currently reached the $1 million mark and could be won on the next spin for all we know. If this is the case, we look forward to making one of our customers a millionaire!”

The million dollar Monster Millions Jackpot can be won with five of the scattered Moon symbols on a spin during the Monster Mania free game feature. The feature is triggered when a Moon symbol appears on both reels 1 and 5. The free game round takes players to a seemingly quiet bedroom where they select from seven hiding places in search of three Monsters. Prizes are tripled during free games (except the Monster Millions Jackpot) and there are also Monster Bonuses to be won.

Bebo and Tang, two animated monsters, are Wilds and can multiply prizes by up to 6x. The Monster Bonus is triggered when either of them appears on reels 2, 3 and 4 giving a bonus prize up to 500 times the triggering slot bet.

Like many of Lucky Club’s new games, Monster Millions includes the Feature Guarantee which ensures that either the Monster Bonus or Monster Mania Feature will be triggered within a given number of spins. Using the Instant Trigger option, players can try to trigger these features at any time.

In addition to Monster Millions, Lucky Club Casino (www.LuckyClub.eu) has 30 video slot machines, three video poker games (Deuces Wild, Jacks or Better, Joker Poker) and four table games (Baccarat, Blackjack, Let ´em Ride, Tri Card Poker). New online slots African Skies, Greek Goddess and The Duck Ages feature the 5-level, interactive progressive jackpot game “Jackpot Pyramid”.

Bounty Tournaments at Intertops Poker Give Two Chances to Cash In

In two special bounty tournaments held second weekday in November at Intertops Poker, players will have  two chances to cash in. Tournament players not only win money, but also earn one point for every player they eliminate in the process. At the end of the month the player with the most points will be declared the Knock Out Champion and the top ten point scorers on the Knock Out Challenge Leaderboard will split $1,000 in prize money. The more opponents a player eliminates, the higher they rank on the leaderboard and the bigger their share of the prize pool.

“Even if you don’t finish in the money, you still have the chance to stash some cash,” said the Intertops’ Poker Manager. “Just knock out enough players and you take home some prize money!”

Knock-Out Challenge Tournaments will be held every Monday, Wednesday and Friday in November at 6pm EST and 10pm EST. Buy-in is only $5+0.5 and $2 of that becomes a bounty on the player’s and their rival’s head. Tournament details are provided on the Promotions tab at Intertops Poker.

In addition, there’s $25,000 up for grabs in the November FPP Race. Intertops Poker players earn Frequent Player Points whenever they are dealt cards at any real-money cash game or pay a poker tournament entry fee. Each week, players that finish in the top 100 Frequent Player Point earners will win a share of the $6250 awarded that week. FPP Race information is available on the Intertops Poker “Promotions” tab and players can check their standings on the FPP Race Leaderboard any time.

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

Slotland.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.

This and other Slotland news stories can be viewed on at www.YouTube.com/SlotlandNews.

“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.

To get things off to a good start, Lucky Club Casino is giving all players a 100% Welcome Bonus.

There are also three video poker games (Deuces Wild, Jacks or Better, Joker Poker) and four table games (Baccarat, Blackjack, Let ´em Ride, Tri Card Poker).

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

WinADayCasino.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.

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

Event 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

Happy 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

As 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

WinADayCasino.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 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

Halloween 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.

Badbeat.com Mentoring Leads to Success in €100K GTD for Paul Gunn

Attributing his improved performance to the mentoring he’s received over the last two months, Badbeat.com sponsored player Paul Gunn took second place and pocketed €16.6K in the €100K GTD at Royal Vegas Poker on Sunday night. If you're looking to step up your own game you'll be happy to know that Badbeat now makes poker training materials developed through their mentoring program available free online.

Badbeat.com, the original and leading poker staking site, has been sponsoring and mentoring promising players like Gunn since 2005. This summer it made its revolutionary new MyGame poker training system, modeled on that experience, available free to anyone that wants to learn, win and transform the way they play. It builds players’ poker skills from the ground up by analysing actual play. Access to tutorials, the unique hands analysis tool, Report Cards, and Social gaming features are all free after registering a new account with any of Badbeat’s partner poker sites. A new iPhone app now enables MyGame poker trainees to compare Report Cards with others enrolled in the program and even get advice and access training videos from their phone.

Gunn described Sunday’s tournament, and how the confidence he’s gained from Badbeat.com coaching has changed his game: “For the final hand the blinds are 50/100k and we’re pretty much level - I raised 200k - he pushes - I call instantly holding JJ - he turns over the 10c 8c, so I couldn’t be more pleased…until the flop comes Ac 2c Ad, Turn 7h and River 9c! I was gutted but at the same time chuffed with the result and knowing that I played the hand right.”

“I’ve learned to be pretty aggressive on the bubbles as people tighten up trying to cash more and floating in a lot of pots then bluffing. It worked a treat. Since I’ve been back with Badbeat.com these last two months I can’t give my mentor Jon Huckle any higher praise. He’s given me the confidence to believe in my game.”

“This is a great example of what a good player can do with the correct tournament selection,” said Paul’s Badbeat.com mentor Jon Huckle. “With some coaching he’s learned to control his daily spend on MTT’s and use his profit to buy into the larger weekly events rather than killing his bankroll. He’s managed to cash consistently and build his profit. It was only a matter of time until he hit big!”

“Paul has responded very well to our training and mentoring,” said Badbeat.com founder John Conroy. “We’re so pleased with his development so far that we’re rewarding him with a seat at the £300 Deepstack live event at DTD Nottingham next weekend!”

Frighteningly Generous Halloween Cash Back Bonuses at Grande Vegas Casino

Grande Vegas Casino is being frighteningly generous with casino bonuses during their Halloween Madness celebrations. Three lucky players will get every penny they deposit in October refunded!  They'll be randomly chosen at the end of October and will receive a no-deposit cash back casino bonus. Many more will receive surprise bonuses when they check their casino message centers.

“Wouldn’t it be fantastic to play for a whole month, have a great time, and then get back every penny you spent?!” said a Grande Vegas Casino spokesperson. “We can’t do that for everyone, of course, but we’ll sure be spreading a lot of cash around to a lot of players.”

“Let’s face it, lots of casinos have great games,” said a regular player at Grande Vegas Casino. “These days you expect that. It’s the nice touches that make the difference though, I think. Like being generous with bonuses like Grande Vegas is!”

Grande Vegas surprised players with notes in their message center about deposit bonuses and cash-back bonuses several times in September. They’re not saying when, but they will be making more surprise announcements in October including one for an add-on tournament. Since players have just 24 hours to respond to these messages they’re advised to continue checking their message center inboxes frequently.

“I love checking my messages to discover the ‘Bonus Fairy’ has sent me a nice surprise. That little extra money means I can have a little more Saturday afternoon fun time than I thought I would have! How great is that?! And the best part is, Grande Vegas is doing this all the time!”

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 over $1.7 million. On Aztec’s Millions the progressive jackpot is currently over $1.2 million. The Midlife Crisis/Shopping Spree jackpot is at $1.1 million and Cleopatra’s Gold is over a quarter million.

The Rules are Wrong and a Flush Should Beat Quads -- Nic Szeremeta Challenges Orthodox Thinking

Nic Szeremeta has always been willing to shake things up in the poker world. In 1999 he created Late Night Poker for Channel 4, the first poker show to use the hole card cam, and helped to kick-start the poker boom in the UK. But now it’s Szeremeta’s mission to point out to all the card rooms and casinos that spread strip-deck poker, live and online, that they’ve been shipping the pots in the wrong direction for years. This is because, in accordance with the immutable laws of mathematics, a flush should beat quads.

The Independent newspaper’s poker columnist sets out his argument in the new issue of Bluff Europe, out Monday 3rd October. “According to the principles upon which hand rankings are based, a flush should beat four-of-a-kind. The reason is that a flush occurs less frequently (can be made in fewer ways) than four-of-a-kind in a 32 card deck.

“This is not advanced maths; it is an easy sum,” says Nic. “As it’s more difficult to make a flush than to make four-of-a-kind (around 10% more difficult), it therefore follows that the holder of a flush against quads should have the pot pushed in his or her direction.”

Nic calls on regulators to change the rules: “Even more money is going to be pushed in the wrong direction unless both the Internet card rooms and the brick and mortar casinos who offer ace to 7 games change their hand rankings,” he says.

For the full explanation, check out the latest issue of Bluff Europe Magazine. Nic also outlines his theories in a video interview at www.bluffeurope.com.

“Tournaments give players a chance to compete against each other – and win extra cash,” said WinADay manager Michael Hilary. “Having everyone playing the same games levels the playing field a bit, maybe gets some of our regular players going back to games they haven’t played for awhile.”

The winner of each tournament is the player with the highest score at the end of the daily tournament. All players’ scores are constantly updated during the tournament and are displayed on the leaderboard. Players earn one point for every winning payline (or hand, in video poker).
“I actually didn’t even realize I was in a tournament at first. I was just playing my favorite game, Fruitful 7s, like usual,” said a player known as Sarah J who placed second in the opening day tournament. “But then I noticed that I was automatically entered for free just by playing that particular game, and there was my name on the player ranking scoreboard. Well, when I saw I was in 85th place I thought I just better get back to my game and win some more hands! It sure was fun watching my name going up and down the scoreboard a bit. Especially when I ended up winning the $50 second prize!

“Rachel S. and Phillip N. better watch out next time though!” laughed the slots tournament player. “The gauntlet is down!”

WinADay is an instant play casino with 26 online casino games including slots, video poker, Keno and Roulette. All slots games are tied to one progressive jackpot which is currently over $150,000.

Intertops Sportsbook Picks Green Bay to Triumph Over Chicago Bears in Sunday's Re-play of Last Years NFC Championship Game

Sunday’s re-match of last season’s NFC Championship title game duel between the Bears and the Packers will be one of the hottest contests in Week 3 of the new NFL football season. Intertops bookies see 2-0 Green Bay as a 3.5 point favorite to win at Soldier Field.

In other key Week 3 battles Intertops favors the New Orleans Saints to use home-field advantage to get past the fast-improving Houston Texans, and expects the Pittsburgh Steelers to pile on the agony for the winless Indianapolis Colts on Monday Night.

“All eyes were on Aaron Rodgers in last year’s NFC Championship Game, and they will be again on Sunday,” said an Intertops Sportsbook spokesperson. “But let’s not forget that the Packers’ final step to the Super Bowl was only sealed when the Bears’ third-string quarterback, Caleb Hanie, was intercepted just 12 yards from a game-tying touchdown.”

Intertops will make one NFL football fan’s dream come true by sending them to Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis February 5th. 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. For those who already have a hunch about who will win the Vince Lombardi Trophy next, Intertops has updated its Super Bowl odds following the Week 2 action.

Sure, a trip to Super Bowl XLVI would be great. But how about a $500 free bet?! If you wager at least $200 on every game day of the NFL Regular Season Intertops will give you a $500 free bet after the final week of play.

Intertops took the first online sports wager in 1996 and continues to be one of the most popular and trusted online sportsbooks in the world. Working hard to earn its reputation for courteous and efficient customer service and hassle-free deposits and withdrawals, Intertops is one of the world’s favorite online sportsbooks, casinos and poker rooms.

The legendary kingdom of Atlantis may be just a myth, but the fun – and chances to win big – are very real in Slotland’s new Pearls of Atlantis online slot machine. Pearls of Atlantis is a 5 wheel, 9 pay line slot machine with images of the legendary lost kingdom of Atlantis.

“Slots players love spinning the reels and these reels have some of the most beautiful graphics our games developers have ever come up with” said Slotland manager Michael Hilary, “But we also like to give players an interesting and challenging bonus game to make the fun last even longer -- and multiply winnings!”

The mermaids, mermen, seahorses and sea monsters that adorn the wheels of this mythical slot machine conjure the undersea world of Atlantis but the most important symbol is the “Treasure Chest”. When three appear anywhere on the screen, players can receive a multiple of that spin’s bet added to their Treasure Chest Fund, a piece of the Wheel of Fortune, or one of the special gem pieces that boost players’ chances to multiply their winnings during the bonus game.

Collecting five pieces of the outer wheel triggers the Wheel of Fortune Bonus Game where a lucky spin wins up to five times the money previously accumulated in the Treasure Chest Fund.

Like all of their online slots, Pearls of Atlantis is tied to the casino’s progressive jackpot. Spinning five "Triton" symbols on a pay line when at least $10 has been bet wins the jackpot which is currently over $115,000.
