Online Slots and Spas

May 11th, 2011

Online slots players have the chance to win a spa day from playing in an online slots tournament at VIP Slots. So while they might not be doing anything for Friday the 13th, they more than make up for it with a spa day giveaway.

VIP Slots’ Win A Spa Day tournament began back on May 9th and will continue to run until 11:59 pm on Thursday, May 12th. While the first place player will win a day at a spa and a $1in bonus money, here is the breakdown of the $2,500 prize pool for the runner ups and how many will receive that particular prize:

Prize 1 (1): A day at a spa and $1 bonus money
Prize 2 (1): $250
Prize 3 (1): $125
Prize 4 (2): $75
Prize 5 (5): $50
Prize 6 (10): $25
Prize 7 (20): $10
Prize 8 (60): $5
Prize 9 (390): $2.50

All of those are real money prizes. Except for the spa and $1 of bonus money for first place.

Now considering the day at a spa for first place, the entry fee for this particular online slots tournament is higher than normal. Instead of the usual $5 or $10, the entry fee is $25. For that $25 entry fee, online slots players are given a $200 tournament balance to spin the reels of 5 Reel Wheel of Chance by Vegas Technology.

For players who need it from crossing the low balance threshold, rebuys are available for $5 each. Each rebuy will recharge players’ tournament balances with another $200 in tournament money.

There is still the rest of today and all of tomorrow to pop over to VIP Slots to register to play in their Win a Spa Day online slots tournament.

Countdown to Easter is a Go

April 12th, 2011

Now that Easter has become an online casino holiday, the tournaments that are not month-long Easter tournaments are gearing up to go live.

One such online slots tournament is the one being hosted at Go Casino. They are hosting a Countdown to Easter Freeroll and the start day is coming soon.

The Countdown to Easter Freeroll will begin at 10:30 am on Sunday, April 17th, and will run through Easter Sunday, April 24th, ending at 11:30 pm that night.

The prize pool for this online slots tournament is $25,000 in Bonus Bucks. Bonus Bucks are the Go Casino name for bonus money. The top 39 players will receive a portion of that Bonus Bucks prize pool, with some places prizes being awarded to multiple players. Here are the top 10 prizes in Bonus Bucks:

Place 1: $1,000
Place 2: $460
Place 3: $350
Place 4: $300
Place 5: $260
Place 6: $150
Place 7: $140
Place 8: $130
Place 9: $115
Place 10: $100

As the name of this online slots tournament suggests, this is a freeroll tournament so there is no entry fee to worry about. All players who register to play in the Countdown to Easter Freeroll will start out with $50 as their tournament balance.

The low balance threshold is $35, and for players who cross it and want to recharge their tournament balance, rebuys are available for $4.99. Each rebuy will give players $250 to their tournament balance.

As Vegas Technology does not have an Easter themed online slots game, the Countdown to Easter Freeroll at Go Casino is being played out on Funky Chicken.

Columbus Day Freeroll at Go

October 8th, 2010

True to form, Go Casino is taking advantage of any holiday. And the next holiday up is Columbus Day. That means it is time for an online slots tournament. And a freeroll at that!

This coming Monday, October 11th, from 12 am to 12 am on Tuesday, October 12th players at Go Casino can register to play in the Columbus Day 24 Hour Freeroll.

While Columbus Day is not a nearly as heavily celebrated as Halloween, Go is paying a fitting tribute by hosting a tournament in honor of the man who first found our continent. This tournament tribute is a freeroll that also has a cash prize rather than the usual Bonus Bucks prize pool that normally accompanies a freeroll tournament.

As a freeroll, players do not have to pay an entry fee to join in the fun of this twenty four hour long online slots tournament.

Players will start out with seventy five tournament credits. For those who run out and wish to keep on playing, rebuys are available for $3.50.

Go Casino has chosen California Gold as the online slots game for this freeroll tournament.

Columbus sailed from Spain to discover the New World, where there was hope to find riches—similar to those who moved west in the 1800s to find gold. So California Gold is mostly appropriate online slots game for this tournament.

Actually a slots tournament is a very good way for an online casino to honor Columbus. After all he was looking for wealth and so are online slots players.

Because the Columbus Day 24 Hour Freeroll requires no entry fee, players need only have a real money account and register to receive their free seventy five tournament credits.

Online Slots Tournament Late Night

September 24th, 2010

What is the best way for an online slots player to keep themselves entertained in the early hours of the morning?

An online slots tournament that is especially for all of those late night people!

And Go Casino has just the online slots tournament series to fill that need. They host their Red Eye Pot Percentage online slots tournament every night, or morning depending on how you view time, of the week. That means that there is always some late night online slots action out there for night owl slots players.

It is also offers a chance to play and even win an online slots tournament that most players will not play in simply because they are asleep. True, less participation means less in the Pot to win, but it also increases a player’s chances of winning the Pot.

Each Red Eye Pot Percentage online slots tournament begins at 12:30 am and runs through 8:30 am every day. So there is no single night, or morning, that leaves an online slots player without a late night thrill.

This month seven online slots games created by the ever popular Vegas Technology have been selected to be used in this online slots tournament series, one for each night of the week:

Monday: Winter Wonderland
Tuesday: Parrot Party
Wednesday: Tiki Lounge
Thursday: Northern Lights
Friday: Butterflies

And the weekend night, or morning, offerings are:

Saturday: Fire Hawk
Sunday: Eastern Dragon

Players who are interested in the Red Eye Pot Percentage online slots tournament series only need to register at Go Casino and pay the $2.99 entry fee to receive their 250 tournament credits; rebuys are $2.99.

Lord of the Rings Slots Party

September 16th, 2010

As the online slots world is well aware, Microgaming launched their new Lord of the Rings online slots game earlier this month.

True enough it is an impressive online slots game. And to celebrate the launch of this new online slots game Microgaming hosted a launch party at their home on the Isle of Man where they are based.

Guests were surrounded by decorations to bring the movie to mind, including adapting the party area into a hobbit habitat. Well, a hobbit habit that is human-sized of course.

Guests, which included ministers from the Isle of Man, business leaders and members of the media, not only got to try out the new online slots game, they got to play in their own private competition that night. The guests with the top three highest scores were told to name a favored charity. Those three charities received a nice £10,000 donation from Microgaming.

Now that is a nice sort of slots tournament.

The overall guest reaction was that Microgaming has topped themselves with this online slots game, and that it is their best online slots game to date. And this is taking Thunderstruck II from earlier this year into consideration.

But this is will not be the last the online slots world hears about Microgaming and The Lord of the Rings.

Remember the official name of this new slots game is The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. You know what that means.

Yes, there will be two more Lord of the Rings online slots games, one for each of the movies that make up the movie trilogy.

I think that, like the movie trilogy, this will be the online slots game experience of this decade. The first in this trilogy of Lord of the Rings online slots games is a good indicator of what players can expect down the road.

New Online Slots Tournaments

September 13th, 2010

Microgaming will be launching three new online slots tournaments to their partner online casinos.

According to Mike Hebden, the Head of Casino at Microgaming, “Microgaming constantly strives for innovation and we will continue to analyze our casino offering and make further improvements to ensure we stay ahead of the curve as the market evolves.”

Microgaming certainly does seem to be keeping ahead of the curve, launching two highly anticipated online slots games this year already: Thunderstruck II and The Lord of the Rings.

This time they have turned their eyes to their online slots tournament offerings. Three new types of online slots tournaments have been created, and players will be seeing them shortly in Microgaming powered online casinos.

Midweek Moolah and Weekend Whooper will have guaranteed prize pools of $10,000 each. And the Monthly Monster will have a guaranteed prize pool of $25,000.

The Midweek Moolah is going to be a three day tournament that, as its name suggests, will run during the middle of the week. The time span for this tournament is going to be three days.

The Weekend Whopper, as its name also suggests, is going to be a weekend tournament, covering three days—most likely Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

Finally there is the Monthly Monster. Guess how long that one lasts. Yes, players will spend a month playing for a share of the guaranteed $25,000.

Microgaming hopes their new online slots tournaments will be successful in catching players’ attention and drawing them in for some online slots tournament fun at their partner casinos, such as All Jackpots.

Hebden said, “We have delivered a number of new, smart, player focused initiatives that we are confident will meet the expectations of even the most discerning casino player and will further increase engagement.”

Microgaming has done well of other new online slots games, so the initial outlook on the new online slots tournaments is definitively a positive one.

Weekend Online Slots Tournaments

September 10th, 2010

A lot of online slots players will save their playing until the weekend. This is why a lot of online casinos will have their full line up of tournaments ready to go during the weekends—including the online slots tournaments with the big prize pools.

Want to see what I mean? Then take a look at Crazy Slots and what they have going just about every weekend.

First off is their Weekend Madness online slots tournaments. These will start at 10 pm on Fridays and run through Tuesday of the following week. Up for grabs is a $30,000 prize pool, and players only have to pay a $10 entry fee to take a shot at it.

The Weekend Madness online slots tournament is the biggest tournament offered at Crazy Slots. Well, not quite. The only tournaments with bigger prize pools are their end of the month/beginning of a new month tournaments. Those prize pools vary from 50K to 75K, sometimes 100K if it is a holiday weekend.

Fridays are the days for the Frugal Friday online slots tournaments. These tournaments only cost $1.99 to enter and carry a prize pool of $2,500. These tournaments start at 9 am and run through 7:45 pm the same day. Not a bad way to kill your lunch hour.

Then there are the Bonus Buck Weekend Freerolls. Costing nothing to enter, players spend Saturdays and Sundays playing for a prize pool of $2,500 in Bonus Bucks. While the first 125 tournament credits are free, rebuys are available for $1.99.

Also running on the weekends for you night owls is the Red Eye Pot Percentage online slots tournaments. These tournaments begin at 12:30 am and end at 8:30 am the same day. Players can stay up late spinning the reels for a piece of the pot for only $2.99.

Sundays mean it is time for the Beat the Bank Pot Percentage. Players can enter for $2.50 and spin the reels of the Beat the Bank online slots game for a shot at a piece of the pot.

There is a type of online slots tournament for everyone, and that is what Crazy Slots wanted to make sure of. This way when players sign in on the weekends everyone can play in a tournament.

Freeroll Slots Tournament in Europe

September 10th, 2010

Slots players living across the Atlantic will be quite pleased with the latest freeroll online slots tournament series that has been launched.

This new freeroll online slots tournament is called the EUR100 Daily Slots Freeroll, and it is being hosted by Crazy Vegas.

I know, an online casino with Vegas in its name that American players cannot play at. It is kind of a letdown, especially considering what this freeroll online slots tournament has to offer.

As you can tell by the name of this online slots tournament series, this is a daily offering at Crazy Vegas and it is free for players to enter. All they need is to have downloaded the casino’s software in order to access the tournament section of the lobby, and to have created a real player account.

The title of this online slots tournament series also reveals its prize pool: EUR100. Those 100 Euros are broken down as so:

1st place: EUR40
2nd place: EUR25
3rd place: EUR15
4th place: EUR10
5th place: EUR10

At first the prize pool may not seem like a lot, but players have to remember that this is a daily freeroll tournament. Every day it is free to enter and every day EUR100 are being given away.

Each one of these daily freeroll online slots tournaments’ registrations open twelve hours before the start of each tournament and close one hour before the tournament ends. Each tournament lasts for twenty four hours.

This makes it easy for players to register and easy registration is a must since each tournament must have a minimum of six players to commence.

One more thing to note: players only have one rebuy available to them for EUR1.00.

This freeroll online slots tournament series is good for both experience players looking for an easy tournament to play in. It is also good for newer players who are just getting into online slots tournaments since they do not have to put money on the line.

Labor Day Online Slots Bonus

September 3rd, 2010

Online casinos always know when to put out new bonuses and promotions to attract new plays. And if you do not already have a player account at Super Slots this is the time to sign up.

During this Labor Day weekend Super Slots is offering an online slots bonus to new players. New players who sign up between today, September 3rd, through Monday, September 6th, will be eligible for a 150% match bonus that is worth up to $300.

And what online slots player would pass up the chance to pick up an extra $300? After all that extra $300 goes a long way in an online slots player’s bankroll.

All a new online slots player needs to do at Super Slots is create a new player account and enter the promotional code in the cashier section of the site. After that the match deposit slots bonus is theirs.

Super Slots is a Vegas Technology powered online casinos with an incredible amount of online slots games to play, including the ever popular Reel Deel five reel online slots game.

For online slots players who like playing in tournaments, Super Slots offers daily online slots tournaments every day of the month. They also offer a Quick Slots tournament that players can play for the pot in for only $0.50.

If tournaments are not your thing, there is still the incredible array of online slots games to choose from, including Grail Maiden. And that match deposit Labor Day slots bonus would go a long ways towards time spent spinning the reels.

On top of this Labor Day online slots bonus, Super Slots also offers a six level VIP program as well.

Online Slots Tournament: Rome’s Labor Day

September 3rd, 2010

Still looking for some way to spend your Labor Day weekend? Rome Casino is offering up an option: their Labor Day online slots tournament.

Rome is hosting an online slots tournament that covers the entire Labor Day weekend. This tournament began yesterday, September 2nd, and will run through Sunday, September 5th.

Rome has a reputation as being an online casino that does not walk the exact same line as other online casinos in the online gaming industry. And this holds true for their Labor Day online slots tournament.

I suppose you could say that this is something of a freeroll online slots tournament in so much that there is no set fee to take part in this tournament. All any interested players need to do is create an account at Rome (if they do not already have one), and then make two deposits during the tournament time frame. There is no specified amount on those deposits.

Players compete in this tournament by playing any of the online slots game in order to collect Labor Day tournament points. The top twenty players at the time the tournament closes on September 5th will be rewarded:

1st place: $30,000
2nd place: $22,000
3rd place: $15,000
4th place: $8,000
5th place: $6,000
6th place: $4,000
7th place: $2,500
8th place: $1,500
9th & 10th place: $1,000
11th – 15th places: $500
16th – 20th places: $250

Obviously the nature of this online slots tournament deems the player who plays the hardest has the best shot at first place—the more you play, the more points you earn. But considering that there is no entry fee this is not a bad tournament.

Sure, you have to make two deposits, but you were going to make them anyway right?

All in all, this is not a bad online slots tournament. Players at Rome Casino stand a chance to win for doing what they do anyway: playing the slots. And this would be an easy online slots tournament to enter.
