It is Friday, the night when people go out and unwind after a long work week. That being said, anyone up for a quickie?

Shame on you for thinking I meant THAT. I do not know where you got that idea; I was talking about the Quickie online slots tournament that is happening tonight at Go Casino.

For those of you who are not going out on the town tonight and are staying in Go Casino is giving online slots players the chance to make a quick buck. The Quickie slots tournament series happens every night of the week—well, not everyone needs a quickie the same night of the week.

The Quickie will get underway at 9 pm tonight and will run for two and a half hours, ending at 11 pm tonight. Two and a half hours definitely sums up quickie when you are talking about online slots tournaments.

Every Quickie tournament offers players the chance to win a portion of the $500 prize pool, which has a breakdown like so:

Prize 1: $100
Prize 2: $50
Prize 3: $31
Prize 4: $30
Prize 5: $28
Prize 6: $24
Prize 7: $21
Prize 8: $19
Prize 9: $17
Prize 10: $16

The prizes continue from Prize 11 at $15 to Prize 21 at $2.

Players can enter the Quickie by registering at Go Casino and paying an entry fee of $1.99. That $1.99 gives players a tournament balance of $100 to spin the reels of Vegas Technology’s La Fiesta online slots game. For any player who crosses the low balance threshold of $35, rebuys are available for $1.99, which will recharge a player’s tournament balance with $150.

There is a reason why so much attention is given to online slots.

Online slots are the most popular form of online casino games outside of poker. But poker does not make the money for the online casinos that online slots do. Like their counter parts in the brick and mortar casinos, online slots are the cash cows of the online casino industry.

That is why online casinos will give special bonuses to slots players. This is always why more than half of an online casino’s tournaments will be devoted to online slots. Other casino game tournaments for blackjack or roulette might only be weekend tournaments or midweek tournaments only. But for online slots there are daily, weekend, mid-week, holiday and freeroll tournaments.

Online casinos are willing to offer more to online slots players as a return to these players who fund so much of an online casino’s operation.

But players also benefit from this popularity from the software developers as well. Software developers will launch anywhere from one to three new online slots games each month. This gives slots players a constant flow of new games with lots of options to choose from. No other online casino game gets so much variety pumped into it. These same online slots games are designed to accommodate both low stakes players and high rollers so that anyone can enjoy a particular game.

And the best part for online slots players is that they can enjoy all of the bonuses, tournaments and new slots games from the comfort of their homes. Or on the go if that suits them more. Online slots give players a constant fresh source of game play no matter where they are.

With so many options open and constantly being launched, online slots players truly do have an upper hand over other online casino patrons.

Another holiday is upon us: Thanksgiving. And that means that online casinos are already up to their elbows in turkey.

And VIP Slots was up to their elbows faster than all the other online casinos owing to the fact that their online slots tournament for Thanksgiving is a month long. This is compared to other online casinos who are hosting extended weekend Thanksgiving online slots tournaments.

‘Tis true. The Big Turkey began on November 1st and will run through Thanksgiving and then some, ending on November 30th. Just in time for everyone to run out of turkey leftovers.

The Big Turkey offers a prize pool of $100,000 broken down into $85,000 in cash prizes and $15,000 in bonus money prizes. Some places will be paid to multiple players, but the amount per place looks like this:

1st place: $50,000
2nd place: $10,000
3rd place: $5,000
4th place: $2,500
5th place: $1,000
6th place: $500
7th place: $250
8th place: $100 bonus money
9th place: $50
10th place: $10

Players can pull up to the table of the Big Turkey and spin the reels on California Gold, the Vegas Technology slots game choice for this tournament, for $10. That $10 entry fee will give players $500 in tournament money to play with. Rebuys are available for $10 and that will give players another $500 in tournament money. The cap on the rebuys is 2,500.

With The Big Turkey being on the table until the end of the day on the 30th, there is still time to head over to VIP Slots and register. Go spin the reels, take a break for some real turkey, watch the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and then spin the reel some more. This slots tournament might send you into December with another type of turkey.

While I am waiting for the hopeful release of some new Halloween online slots games I am just going to have to content myself with the Super Slots’ Halloween tournament.

Yes, a real Halloween themed online slots tournament.

Starting today, October 1st and running through November 1st, Super Slots will be hosting their Haunted 100K.

As I am sure you can guess, the prize pool for this spine tingling tournament is $100,000. It will be divided up in varying amounts to the top 800 players in this tournament. First place will receive $50,000 while second place will receive $10,000. The rest of the money will continue to roll down in tiers, and the last 650 players of the top 800 will receive $10.

Players can enter the Haunted 100K for $10. This is not a bad entry fee. There are other online slots tournaments out there with higher entry fees with smaller prize pools. So $10 for your shot at a piece of the $100,000 is not bad at all in my opinion.

This is an online slots tournament that is not a one-shot sort of competition. Players are allowed rebuys, in fact they are allowed to make up to 2,500 rebuys. Rebuys cost $10 each and will allow players to get back into the game to climb the leader board.

The game of choice for this Halloween slots tournament is the highly appropriate Black Magic slots game by Vegas Technology. And I say appropriate because the reels are full of creepy things like Snakes, Rats and Spiders. Not to mention a cackling Witch.

With this being a month long online slots tournament, there is no rush for players to register. But anyone who is interested might want to get a head start on climbing the leader board.

It is nice to get a jump on Halloween with Super Slot hosting a Halloween online slots tournament.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
