When it comes to playing online casino tournaments, you're likely to run across slots tournaments more than any other game. And just because your current favorite online casino doesn't offer anything but slots tournaments, doesn't mean the Blackjack, Video Poker or even Roulette tournaments do not exist on the World Wide Web.

As for Roulette, this can make for some of the most competitive and intense tournaments out there. Being a more popular casino game in Europe, especially in the UK, Roulette tournaments are typically offered at UK casinos (go figure, right?). It's no surprise then, that the UK-based Cryptologic (Wagerlogic) Software, probably has the most online casino licensees hosting some grand roulette tournaments.

This month alone, there have and will continue to be some great roulette tournaments at UK facing Cryptologic online casinos (sorry U.S. players....Cryptologic doesn't let you in). VIP Casino is hosting the European Cup Special, which is a little multi-player European Roulette tournament with a nominal $20 buy-in. The way it works is that after making the buy-in, each player is alloted $1,000 in free chips to make as much money as possible in thirty minutes at the European Roulette table.

Obviously, the $1,000 isn't for anyone to keep, but is just the means to an end - a jackpot prize of $1,000 split up between the top three finishers. First place takes home $600, second gets $300 and third nabs $100. Not bad considering you're only putting $20 at risk. The tournament runs until June 30th, at which time the top three players with the highest winnings will be divulged their fair share.

Also this month in the world of online roulette tournament begin the daily roulette tournaments at the Cryptologic powered Littlewoods Casino. Similar to the above mentioned tournament, Littlewoods daily online roulette tournaments portion fifteen minutes to earn as much winnings as possible. At the end of the day, the highest scoring player wins anywhere from £250 to £1,000. Beginning June 21, 2008, the £250 games have a buy-in of £2-£5, the £500 games have a buy-in of £6-£10 and the £1,000 games have buy-ins of £15 and £20 (depending on the date of the tournament). Also look out for great online roulette tournament action at InterCasino.
