MEGA MOOLAH ‘’ALMIGHTY” RISES JACKPOT!

It goes like this! As you probably know, the progressive jackpot is that special jackpot with the highest payoff for a gaming machine, where the value of the jackpot increases a small amount for every game played. However, normally multiple machines are sort of “linked” together to make one juicy progressive jackpot, which grows quickly because multiple players are contributing to the jackpot at the same time.
But, if you were to analyze this particular jackpot, you’d notice it takes some smart and fast machines, and much more players, because it got huge, reaching about a “mammoth“figure around $2,900,000. And beware, as this ‘kick-ass’ progressive jackpot on Mega Moolah slot machine is growing every second, even after one lucky player managed to hit the $5.5m jackpot last week.
What I find to be characteristic and very cool for a site of its genre, Mega Moolah was ingeniously jungle themed. Nevertheless, it still can be classified as a five reel, twenty five pay-line slot machines, with a four-tiered jackpot, free spins and a fortune telling monkey that some of you might find really charming.
In addition, one may find intriguing to know that Mega Moolah features four progressive jackpot levels: namely the Mini Progressive, starting at $10; Minor Progressive, starting at $100; Major Progressive, starting at $10,000; and Mega Progressive, which starts at an incredible $1,000,000.
This smart maneuver ensures that the hot jackpot is always kept high and irresistible, even after an enormous payout, such as Klaus E. from Finland’s K.O win last week. You couldn’t have forgotten about that! Some of us still have nightmares picturing Klaus naked, swimming in money. Bad image!
Apparently, Casino Rewards group is behind the whole “humongous progressive jackpot deal”. Since its portfolio is also a very one, with its 18 exciting and luxurious online casinos, including CasinoClassic.com, CaptainCooksCasino.com, BlackJackBallroom.com and CasinoKingdom.com, the company continues to make online gambling more accessible to new players with its frequent promotions and signature bonus offers.
As a promotion, Casino Rewards offers 1 hour free play offer at Golden Tiger Casino, which means that each new player can use its free bonus to try out any of the 200+ online casino games at no personal risk, carrying over any winnings to the casino of their choice after the 60 minutes elapses.
And hey, since it offers you the possibility to choose from 18 various award winning Casino Rewards casinos, we’re not talking about just some free slots, but something really thrilling and enjoyable for just about every taste.

With an average payout rate of over 97%, the odds at Golden Tiger are better than any land-based casino, meaning more and more players would rather enjoy a quiet game online in the intimacy of their homes, than the bright lights and noisy distraction of the casino floor! How about that?

CASINO- CHEATING GANG BOSS PLEADS GUILTY!

Nowadays, the casino industry is being associated with cheating and crime, even if recent research has shown that, it’s in fact, of the cleanest and most successful Internet businesses ever.

    Phuong Quoc Truong, also known as John Truong and “Pai Gow” John, will surely remain in the history as the leader of Casino-Cheating criminal enterprise who managed to perform a masterpiece racketeering Conspiracy on 16 casinos.

 

The Criminal Division Assistant Attorney General Alice S. Fisher, U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of California Karen P. Hewitt, and U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Washington Jeffrey C. Sullivan have just announced that “Pai Gow” has pleaded guilty, to conspiring and participate in the conduct of the affairs of a racketeering enterprise, known as the “Tran Organization.” The hollywoodian scheme was mostly based on bribes to casino supervisors and card dealers and blocks of unshuffled cards. These were the only tools the bad guys used to soak millions of dollars out of 16 casinos.

 

Moreover, according to a recent press release, Truong also pleaded guilty multiple charges, among which conspiring to commit theft from an Indian tribal Emerald Queen Casino gaming establishment. A three-count indictment was already returned in San Diego on May last year, charging Phuong Quoc Truong and 13 others each with one count of conspiracy to participate in the affairs of a racketeering enterprise; one count of conspiracy to commit several offenses against the U.S., including conspiracy to steal money and other property from Indian tribal casinos; and one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering.

 

What Phuong Quoc Truong surely forgot to take into account is that the racketeering conspiracy charge carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison. The conspiracy charge relating to theft from an Indian tribal gaming establishment carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison.

 

 Notably, in his plea agreement, Truong admitted he was the one to create the criminal enterprise “Tran Organization”, based in San Diego, exclusively for the purpose of participating in gambling cheats at casinos across the U.S.

 

He even said that, together with his co-conspirators, have unlawfully obtained up to $7 million during card cheats, while the proceeds of the racketeering conspiracy amounted to at least $2,791,146. Unfortunately, selling two houses in the San Diego area, two properties in Vietnam, the 2001 Porsche Carrera, a Rolex Presidential watch and a white gold Mercedes logo diamond-encrusted pendant still won’t be enough to cover the massive hole! And “Pai Gow” is only the seventh of 19 members of the ring to plead guilty!

DUTCH SENATE SAYS “NO!” TO HOLLAND CASINO PLAN

I don’t know about you, but when I think of Dutch the first thing that comes to my mind are cheese, windmills, wooden shoes, and silly flower bulbs! I didn’t say anything about Amsterdam, space cookies and pot, did I?

The Dutch parliament voted down a bill that would have given online casino operator Holland Casino the green light to open a gambling Web site on a trails basis.

Apparently, Holland Casino was to be granted exclusive license to open up an online casino. It seems that the plan had been approved by a lower house of the Dutch Parliament two years ago. But it was the upper house that refused to bite the cheese this time. Consequently, the Dutch Senate vetoed the proposed online Holland Casino plan by a vote of 35-37. Auch!

But, maybe that’s a good thing after all, as the passage of the bill would have allowed Holland’s gambling monopoly. They probably just though there are already too many types of ‘cheese’ in the online industry, so, it wouldn’t have been fair to give Holland Casino the chance to wear the Rochford label.

However, if this bill had passed it would have protected the Dutch gamblers, which are estimated at about 400,000.  No to mention it would have allowed competition with big international companies operating gambling sites, such as PartyGaming, Bwin and Sportingbet.

The final vote has disappointed CryptoLogic as well, as it worked to develop the Holland Casino site. According to winneronline.com, the online gaming company was prepared for this: “While advocates of safe, secure and regulated e-gaming are disappointed with the Dutch decision, CryptoLogic never places all its bets on one table. That’s why this decision will have no material impact on our business. We recognized the challenge in Holland early and prepared our business by accelerating other revenue-generating initiatives,” Crypto CEO, Brian Hadfield, stated.

There are some other countries in Europe that have been reluctant to open up online gambling among which Germany and France. They official representatives said that the major concern regards gambling addiction and the state betting monopolies losing revenue.

Nevertheless, the European Commission has warned Holland for its gambling laws. Along with Greece, Holland was issued a final warning in February by the EU that action would be taken against it for restricting competition.

Overall, the Dutch should work on hold on the sex industry and to combat the exploitation of prostitution, not to mention they should take a closer look at those coffee shops, which are serving more than fortune cookies to underage kids.

So, if the Dutch famous brothels were officially banned, but they have been allowed to operate under lax conditions and exercise their competition, should we expect the same to happen to the online gaming industry?

PLAY BACKGAMMON MASTERS’ IN BULGARIAN!

Finally, their taking advantage of their online leading position! BackgammonMasters has proudly announces the launching of a Blackjack and Poker Software in Bulgarian, their native language.

 

Apparently, using a single download, all the players can have instant access to the BackgammonMasters Game Lobby, in 14 different languages. You can play in French, German, Spanish, English, Portuguese, Danish, Hebrew, Arabic, Turkish, Greek, Chinese, Italian, Japanese, and now Bulgarian!

 

Switching from one language to any of the other 14 languages offered, it’s not hard at all. The players simply log in to the All-in-One Game Lobby and then click on the country flag representing their desired language, as easy as taking a candy from a baby. Notably, the online backgammon website receives transactions in USD, Euros, GBP and Canadian Dollars and more important, there is no extra fee charged for currency conversion. Meanwhile, BackgammonMasters support is only available in English, but we’re sure they’re going to work on that as well.

Notably, the multi-language game platform includes lots of popular games such as: Poker, Backgammon, 21 Blackjack and Perudo. It’s a really good thing they’re making the software available in so many languages, as the online gaming industry is constantly growing in all parts of the world. Using the latest features in social networking structure, the BackgammonMasters has attracted one of the largest community networks of players online at any particular time. Besides using their skills and intelligence, they get to compete in real gaming tournaments, but most of all, they are given the opportunity to exercise their social muscle, interacting via real-time chat and simultaneously participating in their popular online games. Therefore, they are not winning only money, but also friends and respect in a newly structured online ‘gang’.

 

Nevertheless, one of the best advantages offered by the BackgammonMasters game tables is that players of all levels can find a seat at any of the tables, no matter gaming profile or status. And with each language that’s being added to their portfolio, the players find they are surrounded by a truly multi-national pool of game enthusiasts, looking for a table to join. Besides, the company announced some future language additions, such as Dutch and Russian with many others to follow in the near future.

Overall, the fellas from BackgammonMasters do not lose time at all! They just popped out a LIVE Customer Support service, which provides players with top-level assistance from a live operator at the simple click of a button. Of course, this feature was first launched in English, but they promise it will later be available in many other languages. Bulgarians, you may be the next lucky ones!

Which reminds me, there this backgammon version, where the goal is to be the first player to bear off all of your checkers…I just wonder if BackgammonMasters uses the same catchy strategy on their competitors? Probably…

PUREPLAY POKER GATHERS 30,000 PLAYERS!

It’s true! Fun online play poker gathers many people around the world. If you know when to stop, this game is not burdened with any expectations and fear to lose anything. Known as the first and probably the largest U.S.-compliant play-for-cash online poker destination, PurePlay has just announced its intentions to organize the first-ever tournament to award a free seat to the World Series of Poker.

As expected, there were more than 30,000 players who gladly wrestled for a $10,000 deluxe seat at the poker championship. The event is said to be held in Las Vegas, this July. Moreover, it has been reported that such an enthusiastic feedback has encouraged PurePlay to kick off a second qualifying tourney. In addition, PurePlay felt this is the right way to motivate its faithful players, therefore it also announced they will be giving away even more seats in the monthly tournaments, leading up to the main event.

Since I am sure you all want to know who the winner of PurePlay’s first WSOP -qualifying tournament is, I should tell you his name is Gregory Jacob Kremer of Sun City West, Ariz. Apparently, he is not unaware of the field, as has been a PurePlay member for about two years.

According to a recent press release, a jollier and richer Kremer stated: ”It’s amazing to win a seat to play for millions of dollars without risking any of my own money! Now I can test my poker skills against the world’s best in competition at the highest level. 

PurePlay CEO, Jason Kellerman was also glad about the results: ”Our first tournament in March was by far the biggest, most competitive event we’ve ever hosted. We’re looking forward to even bigger turnouts in April, May and June. Then our winners are off to Vegas.” We are also expecting these ‘turnouts’ he’s been telling us about.

Furthermore, after winning a sack full of money and a little bit more respect, Kellerman invited poker players everywhere to enter PurePlay’s monthly tournaments for the coveted WSOP seats. Unlike other poker sites, PurePlay require no buy ins, deposits or fees of any kind. Consequently, qualifiers run continuously on a daily basis, 24/7.

However, the couch potato poker addicts will also be able to catch an eye on the championship event in Las Vegas, as it is to be aired on ESPN. Notably, back in 2006, lots of players earned a record amount of prize money, estimated at more than $100 million. The top winner took home no less than $12 million, surpassing the combined payouts of Wimbledon, The Masters and the Kentucky Derby.

Overall, Silicon Valley-founded online poker rooms and tournaments offer cash prizes to both play-for-free members and subscribers who pay a low monthly fee. As for the subscriber benefits, they  include access to cash tournaments with over $150,000 in monthly prizes, as well as live chat customer support, no ads during game play, and an individual performance ratings as a bonus, that enable players to compete with others at the same skill level.

Until now, the San Francisco-based company has awarded over $3 million and today is the fastest growing legal online cash poker destination with over 1,000,000 players. So, are you one of them?

“HOLD EM FOR HUNGER “CHARITY POKER CANCELED

Students at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill must be really pissed off! While their mates at Case Western Reserve University are playing poker for the sake of science, their less-cool school decides to cancel “Hold Em For Hunger” charity poker tournament due to some legal concerns. It seems that the tournament would break state regulations regarding gambling.

Apparently, this year’s Hold Em For Hunger charity event was scheduled to take place on April 20^th. After receiving complaints from concerned individuals earlier in the week- could it be Patrick’s campaign?- lawyers for the school examined state laws pertaining to the event and determined that the event would “violate North Carolina’s gambling laws”.  Did they missed the charity part? The bad news is that this sudden cancellation has left Nourish International, whose chapter at UNC sponsors the charity tournament without thousands of dollars.
According to pokernews.com, tournament organizer and director for HEFH, Graham Boone sid that: “The school was very remorseful about having to cancel the event. They didn’t want to shut us down, but we respect their decision and want the university to do things as legal as possible. The school was not the bad guy.”

It seems that the Nourish International has been helping to “bridge the gap between students and developing communities” since 2002 when they planned the first” Hold Em For Hunger” poker tournament. Over the last three years hundreds of students have taken part in prior events and this charity poker event was helping them to raise thousands of bucks.  The students never minded about the fact that all proceeds collected from the $25 buy-in were going directly to Nourish International. All of them attending the event were to be provided with food, t-shirts, beverages, assorted free gifts. The whole event looked funkier than a just a typical poker tournament.  Boone also added that the prizes which were to be given away at the tournament included an all-expense-paid European vacation provided by STA Travel. They also had a SYM Jet Euro Scooter with a custom UNC paint job, Tandem Sky Dives by Carolina Sky Sports, and a 30Gb iPod and an 8Gb iPod Touch, to give away.
Due to fantastic donations which help sponsor the event, Nourish International- a non-profit organization- has been able to provide these great prizes for the poker players. Not to mention the charity event organizers have been in touch with World Series of Poker World Champion Greg Raymer. The poker legend has offered to help the charity by autographing forty cases of poker chips planned on being used during the tournament. All the signed cases would have contained 500 poker chips.  But, players interested in purchasing one should check out the deal on Hold Em For Hunger website. Notably, the charity estimated about $25,000 at this years’ event. If you’re interested in helping you can also make donations via Nourish International’s website.
Even if the “Hold Em For Hunger” annual tournament will not be taking place this year, Boone wants us to know that they’re not giving up. They will be filing for a government pardon for next year: The timing is too late now to do so!” 

Hey guys, how about calling the super professor Charles Nesson ! I hear he makes a strong case for poker as an edifying game no matter what!

University of Texas and College Poker Life

At the University of Texas in Austin, students are still finding plenty of time to enjoy the game of poker. This time of year is when the action often dries out and spring break is in sight. Even with so much going on, , classes tends to get harder, studying becomes more of a priority, but students still have plenty of poker to look forward as their semester winds down.

 

An important poker club with regular events, host occasional tournaments and poker nights, with different school organizations being the sponsor. In 2006, the AMA of University of Texas held a poker night for charity, which raised money for the  American Cancer Society. Other organizations that have held occasional free poker nights and events include the Electrical Computer Hispanic Organization, Honors Business Association, SEMA (Sports, Entertainment, and Media Association), and the DVSSN (Domestic Violence Survivor Support Network). Though many of these past events have been successful, students looking for something more regular will want to check out the MBA Card Club, as it is the closest thing to a poker club the school offers.

 

Persons or students, over  21, who are interested in freeroll events that aren’t sanctioned by campus organizations will want to check out Ringers Sports Lounge for weekly tournaments boasting cash prizes. Students interested in other free bar events can check the website lonestarfreepoker.com for information on where to play in Austin. Lonestar currently runs events at Applebees, One-2-One, Rockin Tomato South, and Clicks Billiards. Students looking to hone their poker skills should not take these events lightly, as they serve as a great and inexpensive way to practice one’s game before investing the big bucks.

 

Students looking for a nice profit won’t have too hard of a time finding a soft, local game around the UT-Austin campus. Most of the games won’t help pay your tuition, but an occasional $50 buy-in tournament isn’t out of the question, nor is a game where a night’s entertainment might cost $10… not including drinks.

 

For those students who need a taste of casino action, there’s always the Kickapoo Lucky Eagle Casino, located a little less than four hours from Austin. While the drive may be staggering to some, students willing to make the trip will find a solid poker room, filled with 16 poker tables and regular action. The poker room holds regular $3/6 and $5/10 limit hold’em, as well as a regular $2/5 NL game. The poker room serves as a great excuse to plan a weekend trip, and is certainly a trip worth making once a semester or so.

 

Although Most of the local action certainly won’t make a student rich and the nearest casino is a distance away, students can still easily find ways to enjoy the game. So … if u are young and you like poker Texas Universities are opportunities for you.
