The US-friendly online casino, Slotastic.com, has four progressive jackpots currently over a million dollars and a total jackpot pool now over $5,000,000. Although million dollar payouts do not happen every day, Slotastic online slots players are regular big-money winners.

Slotastic.com is the home of the largest online progressive jackpots available to American players. The massive Jackpot Piñatas jackpot, now over $1,600,000, is the biggest. The Aztec’s Millions jackpot and the jackpot tied to both the Mid-Life Crisis and Shopping Spree slots are all over $1 million and could make some lucky slots player an instant millionaire on the next spin of the reels.

Current jackpots (selection)*:
Jackpot Piñatas -- More than $1,650,000

Slotastic Online Casino not only provides mind-boggling, continually changing jackpots, but also more than $500,000 in fun games with smaller jackpots. For example, Crazy Vegas, with its $12,000 jackpot, can easily pay for a trip to Sin City and the 3 Stooges jackpot at over $20,000 is more than enough to upgrade a home entertainment center.

“While a million dollar jackpot would be nice,” said Slotastic casino manager Oliver Smith, “I’ve never heard a winner complain about winning ten grand!”

Some recent winners include Jarrod P. who won $7,000 on Coyote Cash, Kay F. who won $6,000 on Mermaid Queen and Thomas P. who won $4,200 on Video Poker – Bonus Poker.

After cashing his check Jarrod P. said “I love the games. They are really, really great. But nothing can beat the joy I had winning this jackpot!”

Jackpot Piñatas is the Progressive of the Month for October, so players can get a 100% deposit bonus (up to $100) to take their shot at that $1.6 million jackpot. The coupon code is POMPARTY. The Slot of the Week from October 11th to 17th is Funky Monkey and another 50% deposit bonus (up to $100) is available for playing this game using coupon code SOWMONKEY.

NFL Football Fever Strikes Intertops Casino, Poker & Sportsbook

NFL festivities include a football slot machine, Monday Night Football poker tournaments, NFL odds and props, and a free Super Bowl contest

Football Fever is spreading quickly throughout the Intertops casino, poker room and, of course, online sportsbook. In the poker room there is Monday Night Football poker tournaments tonight and every Monday night in October.

“Our bookmakers favor Green Bay to triumph over Indianapolis at Super Bowl XLV, but current betting trends show that punters are divided,” said a spokesperson from Intertops. “12% are putting their money on the Green Bay Packers, but 11% are backing the Minnesota Vikings. 31% are betting that the New York Jets will represent the AFC, while 36% think the Packers will take the NFC championship. 100% would love to win our free trip to the Super Bowl!”

The comprehensive online sportsbook will post lines on every NFL game this season. Throughout the NFL season, every dollar wagered on NFL action earns one entry in a free draw for a luxury trip to Super Bowl XLV in Texas. Every week throughout the NFL regular season players can win bet tokens worth up to $100 by predicting the winners of the week’s action in a Free Pool Competition.

On Monday nights even die-hard poker players keep one eye on the game. Intertops Poker's Money Night Football tournaments give players a chance to win cash for supporting their favorite football teams. Players that cash in at one of two Monday night tournaments, under a screen name changed to include a football team or player’s name, are automatically entered into a $500 weekly Kamikaze tournament. Tournaments start at half past 8 pm EST and buy-ins are only $10 + 1.

A favorite of American football fans, Field of Green is a 5-reel, 20-payline football-themed slot machine with a football as a scatter and a progressive jackpot currently over $5500. It is one of more than 300 slot machines, card games and casino classics like Roulette and Blackjack at the US-friendly online casino.

Intertops took the first online sports bet ever fourteen years ago and is still one of the most popular and trusted online sportsbooks around the world. From the beginning it has been famous for specializing in bets on US major league sports.

Slots Site That’s Barely Changed in 12 Years, Celebrates Birthday with Flashy Facelift

New games lobby for enhanced Flash games; Birthday Bonuses mark celebrations

Although Slotland.com has been around since the very beginning of online casinos, other than adding new games it has changed very little. For its 12th birthday this week, the slots and video site has launched a new look that shows off its selection of one-of-a-kind games, many with newly enhanced graphics and sound effects, even better. Special Birthday Bonuses this week invite players to join in the celebrations.

“Even players that told us to never change anything are telling us that they like this little facelift,” said casino manager Michael Hilary. “It makes it much easier to browse through the games. But the basic organization is the same and our design team has kept the same comfortable look and feel that the site has had since the beginning. It’s still black with white type!”

Players get a Birthday Bonus just by logging in between October 1st and 7th. The first time they do they’ll find a free $50 automatically added to their account. Then to top off the birthday celebration, there will be a random draw where 2 players will win $1,212, 12 players will win $112 and another 48 players will win $12. Each deposit during the birthday week is one entry in the draw. Bonus and contest details are posted on the site.



This summer, Slotland introduced new enhanced versions of five of its most popular games with improved graphics and sound effects. With stunning game graphics that fill the whole screen the new games make familiar favourites more fun than ever. The re-designed games have brief video tutorials to get new players started. Five spectacular new games debuted in July: Jacks of Better, Golden 8, Reel Riot, Treasure Box and Wild Heart video poker. Since then, the new Lucky Ducts has been added.

Slotland.com currently features 16 one-of-a-kind slot machines and video poker games. Six of the most popular games are also available on mobile phones and PDAs. They’re all instant play casino games with nothing to download or install.

All of Slotland’s slot machines are tied to one progressive jackpot. Recently reset after two big wins this summer, the progressive jackpot is currently over $58,000. Meanwhile at Slotland’s sister casino, WinADayCasino.com, the jackpot recently topped $100,000.

The Online Forum Challenge Mega Money Events will be a series of seven online poker tournaments over the next four months.

A second set of OFC Mega Money Events will commence in November, followed by a third set in December. The last event will be a bonus $2,000 free roll for any player who plays in two of the three buy-in tournaments during the OFC Mega Money Series.

"We're all really excited to partner with Intertops once again and bring this new Mega Money Series of events to both players and affiliates alike," says Tara Wilson, GGE Director of Operations.

Canadian Slots Player Hits $107,064 on Slotland's 'Wild Heart' Video Poker Game

Win comes only weeks after slots and video poker site’s last big jackpot

Slotland.com paid out a $147,711 progressive jackpot win only weeks ago and the popular slots and video site’s progressive jackpot has already been hit again. A Canadian player has just won $107,064 playing the Wild Heart video poker game. Wild Heart is one of six slot machines and video poker games now available with enhanced graphics and sound effects.

The Slotland progressive jackpot tends to be won every six to eight weeks for an average of about $150,000. The latest win is less than usual but comes only five weeks after the last win.

“I know some jackpots go years or months without a win, but ours is won quite frequently,” said Slotland.com Manager Michael Hilary. “We don’t usually have to wait very long between wins but we were pretty surprised to have another big jackpot winner again so soon!”



All of the slots at Slotland are tied to the same jackpot. Every time a player plays max bet on any of these games, some of the wager goes into the progressive jackpot pool. Hitting the right combination with a max bet placed wins the progressive jackpot. To win the jackpot on Wild Heart WINNIPEGLEG got a Royal Flush on all three lines when he had a max bet on each line.

“Believe me, I’ve often daydreamed about what I’d do if I won a jackpot,” said the winner. “Now that it’s happened I can't remember any of the wonderful things I wanted to do! I’ll probably donate some to a good cause and invest some of it. But I’m also going to buy a few treats for my wife and myself!”

Wild Heart, a multi-hand video poker game with an exotic jungle theme, is a unique variation of Double Joker video poker. It’s a triple play video poker game where players have a chance to win on several lines at a time. The object is to get the best possible five card poker hand on one or all three lines. There are three 54-card decks, each with two wild cards. The same cards are dealt to all three lines. Players can hold one or more cards and, on the next spin, receive up to five new cards on each line.

There have been many smaller jackpot wins on Wild Heart but this is the largest since May 2008 when a player won $88,000 on the popular video poker game.

Slotland.com currently features 16 one-of-a-kind slot machines and video poker games. Five of the most popular games are also available on mobile phones and PDAs. All of Slotland’s slot machines give players the option of placing a maximum bet for a chance at the progressive jackpot. They’re all instant play casino games with nothing to download or install. Many are now available in Flash format and fully compatible with iPhones.

The jackpot at Slotland was re-set to $50,000 after this win. The jackpot at Slotland’s sister casino, WinADayCasino.com, was also won last month for almost $100,000 and is already over that again.

Phil Helmuth Makes Lady Gaga Poker Face Entrance at WSOPE

Last week, London was in for a treat this when UltimateBet's Phil Hellmuth made his grand entrance to this year's World Series of Poker Europe (“WSOPE”) at the Casino at the Empire in Leicester Square. Eleven-time WSOP bracelet holder Phil Hellmuth was the focus of another eye-grabbing grand entrance, accompanied by 11 Lady Gaga lookalikes, and a very British marching brass band.

“I was pumped to see such a huge crowd gathered at ‘the Empire’ like never before when I arrived to take my seat at the WSOPE. Quite the arrival I’d say. The London double-decker, the brass band and 11 Lady Gagas all add up to the most unique media event in poker so far, “ said the legendary UB pro Phil Hellmuth. “My crazy themed grand entrances to the WSOP in Vegas are an institution, and now London’s WSOPE seems to have embraced a whole new tradition too.”

The London press, the local paparazzi and a thousand-strong crowd were entertained ‘Las Vegas style’ in Leicester Square on Thursday afternoon, when UB Pro poker player Phil Hellmuth paraded out of a big red double-decker bus, and into the thick of the dancing, prancing posse of Lady Gaga lookalikes.

The hero Lady Gaga had taken prime position in front of ‘the Empire’, and was leading the other ten impersonators in a rocking rendition of the pop diva’s number one hit Poker Face, backed by a 23-piece marching brass band, whom together heralded the arrival of poker royalty at the Leicester Square Casino for Day 1A of the WSOPE* Main Event.

In an unexpected twist, the 11-time WSOP* bracelet holder stepped centre stage dressed remarkably low-key and in a conservative all-black ensemble - no funny hats, not a historic costume in sight - this time choosing to leave the theatrics to the fine British brass band and the modern-day rock star ‘wannabees’ creating the anticipation and the atmosphere with their Poker Face performance.

In recent years, Phil’s WSOP* entrances have become legendary for their larger-than-life characterizations. This year in Las Vegas, Hellmuth made his way to the Rio for the WSOP Main Event dressed head-to-toe as an MMA fighter, with MMA’s Octagon announcer Bruce Buffer by his side. The over-the-top entrance was in keeping with UB's edgier 2010 WSOP theme.

Phil Hellmuth doesn't reserve his grand entrances exclusively for Las Vegas. Last year, the legend of the game arrived at the Leicester Square venue in a magnificent horse-drawn carriage, leather sandals and all, evoking the mighty Julius Caesar. In 2008, the online poker site held a Phil Hellmuth lookalike contest and invited London locals to show up to the WSOPE dressed as the 11-time WSOP* bracelet winner.

So, love him, or love to hate him, one thing’s for sure; Phil is no shrinking violet, and he’s determined to make his presence known – at the poker tables and away from them.

To qualify for the Bad Beat at IPN poker rooms, players must be at a designated Bad Beat table and use both pocket cards in their winning or losing hand. The losing hand must be four-of-a-kind tens or better. Four or more players must be dealt into the hand.

Although it’s been hit for lesser amounts since then, one of the biggest IPN Bad Beat Jackpots ever hit – over €600,000 -- was last November when a Poker Heaven player walked away with €105,254. Even the other players at the table were each got €15,036.

“I was aware that the jackpot was over €600K. When I lost with such a good hand I immediately left the table to see if I had won,” said the player known as o1nfl1p. “When I realized I had just won over €200,000 I was speechless. The atmosphere at the table when all the players realized we had won the Bad Beat Jackpot was amazing. I’m planning to buy an apartment with some of the winnings and of course I intend to play a lot more poker!”

The IPN is Europe’s largest independent Poker Network. It has more than 4,000,000 players across Europe and has dealt more than a billion hands.

UB's P-P-P Poker Face Phil Hellmuth Gears Up to Make a Rocking Entrance at the World Series of Poker Europe Main Event

Eleven-time WSOP bracelet holder Phil Hellmuth prepares for another eye-grabbing grand entrance to the Casino at the Empire, Leicester Square in London on September 23rd

September 22, 2010 (Miami, FL) – London-town, forget about ‘Changing the Guards’ at Buckingham Palace, and move over Big Ben, because UB's Phil Hellmuth, arguably one of the kings of the poker world, will make his grand entrance to this year's World Series of Poker Europe* (WSOPE*) on Thursday, September 23rd, 2010 at The Casino of the Empire, located at 5-6 Leicester Square.

The London press and the local paparazzi will do more than a double-take in Leicester Square this Thursday afternoon at 4pm when UB Pro Phil Hellmuth makes his way into ‘the Empire’ to take his seat at the poker table for Day 1A of the WSOPE* Main Event.

In fine Hellmuth-fashion, expect the 11-time WSOP* bracelet holder to be up front and centre stage; the man of the moment will provide the focus of a curious mix of some fine British brass band ‘pomp and circumstance’ and modern-day rock star glam, so it will be no surprise if the crowds go a little “GaGa” for the entertaining spectacle in the Square.

While full details of exactly what Phil Hellmuth will do have not yet been revealed, if this summer's WSOP entrance in Vegas is any indication, his London entrance will be one of the biggest highlights of the tournament.

Dressed as an MMA fighter - silken robe, boxing gloves and high-top trainers all part of the illusion - Hellmuth made his way to the Rio in Las Vegas for the WSOP along with MMA’s Octagon announcer Bruce Buffer by his side. The over-the-top entrance was in keeping with UB's edgier 2010 WSOP theme.

Phil Hellmuth doesn't reserve his grand entrances exclusively for Las Vegas. Last year, the legend of the game arrived at the Leicester Square venue in a magnificent horse-drawn carriage dressed as the mighty Julius Caesar. In 2008, the online poker site held a Phil Hellmuth lookalike contest and invited London locals to show up to the WSOPE dressed as the 11-time WSOP* bracelet winner. In 2007, Phil Hellmuth grabbed the European media spotlight once again as he toured London's most famous sights aboard a Hellmuth-branded double-decker bus, accompanied by a swag of models.

So, love him, or love to hate him, one thing’s for sure; when it comes to Phil Hellmuth and his WSOPE* arrivals, simply expect the unexpected, and he’ll never disappoint.

Media and poker fans in the UK are invited to join Phil Hellmuth for his grand entrance at 4pm on Thursday, September 23rd, 2010 at 5-6 Leicester Square in London.

Those who are unable to attend can read about Hellmuth's entrance on UB's blog at http://blog.ub.com/. Real time updates can be followed at UB’s Twitter account: http://twitter.com/ub

Asian Poker Tour Will Rock Macau's 'City Of Dreams' in November

City of Dreams, in collaboration with APT, will host The Asian Poker Tour in Macau from Saturday to Sunday, November 6 to 14, 2010. The last leg of the Asian Poker Tour for 2010 and one of the biggest events in Asian poker is set to rock Macau for nine days offering a jam-packed schedule of poker events and tournaments at City of Dreams, an integrated entertainment resort that is the newest “must experience” destination in Macau.

The festival of poker including a main event with a buy-in of HK$32,500 + HK$2,500 (approximately US$4,180 + US$320), will be staged for the first time at City of Dreams, a collaborator for the event. City of Dreams is an ideal venue for the event ever since the opening of Hard Rock Poker Lounge in June 2010, it definitely enhances the face of the Macau Poker scene and provides a sophisticated yet fun atmosphere designed with the players’ comfort in mind to attract the world’s top poker players as well as high-end bachelor parties and private events.

Mr. Jeff Mann, Chief Executive Officer of APT said he is looking forward for the success of the much-awaited event and working with City of Dreams: “We are delighted that APT Macau has a new home and in particular a new and enthusiastic collaborator: Especially Hard Rock Poker Lounge, boasts full integrated bar and lounge facilities and is perfect for private parties and special events in Macau will add a new edge to the APT Macau event. I think players are going to have a lot of fun. We are planning for a 9-day festival of poker that will include a main event that is expected to attract a record number of players from around the world; at least 10 side events, numerous satellite tournaments and other activities, and for sure it is going to be Hard Rock poker all the way.”

Last year, online poker specialist Mr. Adrien Allain from France won his seat through a US$6 online qualifier, and then went on to take HK$3M (US$389,103) first prize from a total prize pool of almost HK$10M (US$1.3M) by becoming the APT Macau 2009 Main Event Champion.

GUKPT Package Auctioned for Just $3.18 at Bidibot Penny Auction Site

Poker Pro Mark Herron places winning bid as penny auction site sells GUKPT seat for lowest price ever

9 September 2010 (London, UK) – A GUKPT package valued at over £1000 sold for only $3.18 at online poker penny auction site Bidibot.com last weekend. Poker pro Mark Herron placed the winning bid for the Grovesnor UK Poker Tour tournament package.

Bidibot.com enables poker players to bid on unique poker tournament and poker site credits worth up to tens of thousands of pounds for as little as a penny, with the last unique bid being credited with the auction piece.

Auction-winner Herron said he was ready to invest much more to claim the seat.

“I have now won over $5,000 worth of prizes on Bidibot.com, including the seat and all for only $1,000 investment – it's very, very sick,” he said. “I intended to take a shot at it and was willing to invest quite a bit to win it. I was confident I would win but never did I imagine it would be for so little! I had about 50 bids left and was willing to deposit another 500 to go for the seat.”

Bidibot CEO, John Tabatabai said, “The GUKPT auction was extremely popular and is a taste of the kind of packages players can expect at Bidibot.com. We created this site to offer the kind of real value to players that they’d be unable to find elsewhere. This is something we’re very proud of, and well done to Mark for claiming what is a superb value prize.”

Packages from industry giants 888.com, VictoryPoker and Betfair are among the valuable casino and poker items currently being auctioned on the site. The $50 to $200 packages will include sports exchange prizes in addition to poker packages.

Last week an iPad sold for the discount price of $5.10, and this Saturday, September 11th at 6pm another iPad go under the hammer, possibly for even less!

WinADay has just added several new slot machines, most recently Leprechaun Luck which last month produced a $96K jackpot winner.
