Slots Hero

Online casinos that make up the Hambledon New Venture Group are hosting an online slots tournament to benefit victims of the tsunami in Japan.

Although it was not widely advertised, US players can participate in the tournament, which will continue to run until 10 pm tonight.

Go Casino and Online Vegas are two of the sister online casinos in the Hambledon New Venture Group, and are participating in the tournament. Players who are interested can still register to play at either one of those online casinos.

Entry into the Tsunami Relief Pot Percentage Charity Tournament is $1 and gives players $125 in tournament money to play with. Somewhat fitting to the theme of helping to save lives, Hambledon New Venture chose to play the tournament out on the Dr. Love online slots game from the Vegas Technology lineup.

While this is not the only Japan relief online slots tournament being held in the online gambling community, it is the one that US players can participate in, which is a nice considering that there are US military personnel and their families overseas in Japan; such family members and friends would also benefit from the aid since they live in Japan.

The only downside to this particular charity online slots tournament is that it was not widely announced and advertised. It was also selected to run for an odd duration, a Wednesday through Friday tournament.

Had this charity slots tournament been scheduled for a weekend or more widely advertised it might have more than the 1,375 participants that it currently has.

However, every bit helps and there is still time to spin the reels to benefit Japan. Players can head over to Go Casino or Online Vegas to register and help out Japan.

Hockey season is here. And despite all the fuss over Halloween and the online slots tournaments that have turned up as a result, the hockey season has not been forgotten.

Silver Oak Casino is hosting a What the Puck October Ice Hockey Tournament.

Actually this is more of a promotion than a tournament. But it does come with bonuses. And you will need those bonuses.

Silver Oak is giving away four $750 cash prizes and one $1,000 prize each week during the month of October. So that is $160,000 being given away.

In order to stand a shot at winning one of the weekly prizes you need to wager $500 on the Real Time Gaming created Hockey Hero online slots game.

But how does Silver Oak know that you are registered for this tournament slash promotion?

When you make a deposit you enter one of three slots bonus codes in the cashier section of the site:

A $25 minimum deposit receives a 100% deposit match bonus. (code PUCK100)

A $35 minimum deposit receives a 150% deposit match bonus. (code PUCK150)

And a $100 minimum deposit receives a 210% deposit match bonus. (code PUCK210)

Entering any of those three codes will not only get you a slots bonus amount that can be used when playing Hockey Hero, it also registers you for the slots tournament. So as long as you enter one of those three codes each week in October and wager $500 minimum on Hockey Hero in one week.

It is rather nice of Silver Oak to make receiving a slots bonus the method of registering for this slots tournament. Even if you do not win one of the cash prizes from this slots tournament you will at least still have gotten the bonus from Silver Oak.

In my post this morning I discussed the Spring Clean Up online slots tournament that Super Slots is hosting. The game of choice for this $100,000 is Tiki Lounge.

This is a five reel online slots game with twenty five paylines from Vegas Technology. Players can play with wager of $0.01 to $10 per payline. And while there is no bonus game offered, there is a free spins feature for players to play for.

Slots players are taken to warmth and relaxation found in a tropical tiki lounge. Palm fronds frame reels that are home to Sunglasses, Drinks, Paper Umbrellas and a Bartender. There are also the traditional 9, 10, J, Q, K and A in play as well in this online slots game.

The Bartender is the highest paying non-special symbol in regular game play. Lining up five Bartenders will award the slots player 5,000 coins.

But the two symbols of note are the Tiki Mask and the Cocktail Waitress.

The Tiki Mask is the Scatter. He will payout from anywhere on the reels for a maximum of 200 coins based on the total bet of the triggering spin.

The Cocktail Waitress has two functions in this online slots game. She is the Wild, substituting for all symbols in the slots game other than the Tiki Mask. She is also the trigger for the free spins feature. But she only appears on reels one and five.

To trigger the free spins feature slots players must land the Cocktail Waitress on reels one and five at the same time. Twenty free spins are then awarded with a 2x multiplier. It is possible to retrigger the free spins.

Game play on this one is a little slow in regular play, but there are a fair amount of smaller payouts. The free spins feature is not too difficult to trigger. I was able to trigger it three times in one hour, which is better than can said of other slots games.

For those of you who are playing or thinking of playing in the Spring Clean Up at Super Slots, this is not too bad of a game for a slots tournament.

In celebration of Easter Crazy Slots is hosting an Easter Week-long online slots tournament. The best part of this tournament is that it is free. Yes, no joke, Crazy Slots is hosting a freeroll tournament for a whole week.

Beginning today, April 2nd at 8pm and running through next Friday, April 9th at 8pm, slots players can take their shot at winning a part of the $77,777 prize pool.

As stated this is a freeroll tournament. Slots players will start out with a stake of 100. Should anyone run out they can rebuy for $14.50.

Crazy Slots has chosen the five reel Wheel of Chance for the Easter Weekend tournament. This five reel has twenty paylines of play. Wheel of Chance also features a Wild, a Scatter, Free Spins and a bonus game.

This online slots game is given a fun game show feel to it. Symbols reflect a game show with a wheel and prizes to be won. There are traditional symbols as well but not the traditional 9, 10, J, Q, K and Ace; instead Wheel of Chance has the vowels A, E, I, O and U. Huzzah for alphabet soup anyone?

Prizes are doubled with the Wild. Ten free spins can be won with the multiplier determined by the number of Scatters that triggered the feature; two Scatters result in a 2x multiplier, 3 results in a 5x, 4 results in a 20x and 5 result in a 500x multiplier.

Slots players who are eager to take part in this free slots tournament should hop over to Crazy Slots to try for their share of the $77, 777 in the Easter Weekend slots tournament.

Coming soon Go Casino will be hosting an online slots tournament with a larger than normal prize pool.

Typically Go’s prize pools have been around $15,000 to $25,000. But coming soon they will be having one in which $50,000 will be given away to players in the tournament.

Starting Friday, March 19th at 8pm and continuing to Tuesday, March 23rd at 8pm will be the 50K Guaranteed Weekend Madness.

Slots players can buy into this tournament for only $12.99, which when compared with the prize pool, is a low buy in amount. I have seen other tournaments in which the buy in is $15.99 or more and the prize pool is smaller. With that comparison in mind, this is not too bad of a tournament to enter.

For the $12.99 buy in the participants in this 50K Guaranteed Weekend Madness will be given 325 coins to play with. Participants will have to increase their amount of coins to rank on the tournament’s leader board. But should any participant run out of coins they can rebuy into the tournament for another $12.99

The $50,000 prize pool is made up of two parts. There is $30,000 in prize money and $20,000 in bonus bucks. This is similar to Go’s twenty four hour tournaments which feature a total prize pool of $8,888; $4,444 is in prize money and the other $4,444 is in bonus bucks. So slots players that have participated in those tournaments should be familiar with the two parts of the prize pool concept.

For this online slots tournament, Go has chosen the five reel, twenty payline Cleopatra’s Pyramid for tournament play. This slots game does offer a bonus game and fifteen free spins for players to play for.

To get in on this exciting slots tournament stop by Go Casino.
