Instead of "May Flowers", perhaps the month of
May should now be referred to as "May Slots". While
that's probably not going to fly for everybody, if
you enjoy gambling at online casinos, and for that
matter, participating in
online slots tournaments,
May 2009 has been the best month for slots this
year. In a recent news articles here at OCS, another
slots tournament aptly called the "May Flowers
$150,000 freeroll", was highlighted. Made possible by
the popular U.S. facing betting destinations, Online
Vegas Casino and Go Casino, "May Flowers" has
attracted over 26,000 players and will be taking
place until May 19.
In similar fashion, another popular network of U.S.
facing online casinos - the English Harbour New Ventures
group - is hosting a $100,000 prize poll slots
tournament called "Cash Adventures". Already underway at
VIP Slots Casino, the tournament runs until May 31,
culminating with a top prize award of $25,000 going to
the lucky player who racks in the most points playing
Vegas Technology Software's popular Cash Adventures
slot machine.
According to the prize structure, second prize will
take home $10,000, third place will pocket $5,000,
fourth place will nab $1,000, the fifth runner-up will
receive $500, while the next fifty finishers will get
$100, followed by $50 for the next 200 players who make
the boards and extending down to 700 more players, who
will get $25 each. In terms of slot tournament prize
structures, this is one of the best we've seen. All in
all, nearly 1,000 players will walk away with money from
this slots tournament.
There are currently over 37,000 players registered
for the tournament. Amazingly, the number could very
well exceed the 50,000 mark before all is said and done.
Even though the tournament is already underway,
registration is still open. Just like in any slots
tournament, the more you wager, the greater the odds of
winning. The key to success is taking advantage of the
$10 rebuys. Since this is a free roll, there is no fee
to enter. All players start off with a $100 balance,
which can be upped to $350 with a low $10 rebuy.
All in all, there is over $250,000 in prize money
available between two tournaments at
Vegas Technology
Casinos. And that's not counting the myriad of daily freerolls, multi-thousand dollar weekend tournaments and
more. Clearly, Vegas Technology is becoming the top
place for online slots tournaments - even surpassing
Microgaming Software. Likely due to Microgaming dropping
out of the U.S. market, one thing is certain - Vegas
Technology isn't complaining. And neither are U.S.
players.
