If you are a regular reader of Gambling Review, then I’m sure you know by now that weekends are a time when online casinos like to offer tournaments. If you’re not a regular reader, then welcome to Gambling Review! It’s great to have you here. Please feel free to leave a comment.

Anyway, this weekend is no exception and there is a variety of casino tournaments available at Millionaire Casino. The big tournament is the Slottery tournament, which began way back on August 1 but is played in four parts. The fourth part began on August 22 and ends this Sunday, August 29. Though it ends soon, there is still time to join and the entry fee is only $5. Players compete for a share of the pot, which is quite large now thanks to the large number of entries.

For blackjack fans, the Weekend Blackjack Classic tournament runs from Friday, August 27 to Sunday, August 29. It is played on the US Blackjack game. The entry fee is $10 and players compete for a share of a $5,000 prize pool.

Roulette fans aren’t left out, either. You might be thinking there are roulette tournaments? Yes, there are, and Millionaire Casino has one this weekend. It is the Wheel Deal tournament and it started today, August 26, and ends Thursday, September 2. The tournament is played on the American Roulette game.

Weekend casino tournaments at Online Vegas

Friday, August 20th, 2010

Everyone looks forward to the weekend because, for most, it means a short break from work or school and a time to relax. In the online casino world, though, it also means tournaments. Online casinos tend to hold tournaments on the weekends as a way to combat the otherwise slow attendance of their websites during that time. This weekend Online Vegas Casino has some good online tournament action.

From Friday, August 20 to Tuesday, August 24, the online casino is running the $30,000 Guaranteed Weekend Madness tournament. It is played on the Vampire Vixen game, a clever online slot based on a vampire temptress that is quite fitting considering pop culture’s current obsession with vampires. The Weekend Madness tournament has a $10 entry fee, which earns you 325 credits to start with. If you run out of credits and want to buy some more, you can re-buy for the same amount. Players compete for a guaranteed prize pool of $30,000.

For some, that $10 buy-in is too expensive, though, and they want a slot tournament that won’t hurt their wallet. For those players, I recommend the $2500 Bonus Buck Weekend Freeroll. This slot tournament takes place from Saturday, August 21 to Sunday, August 22. It is played on the Cleopatra’s Pyramid slot. This is a free slot tournament, so there is no entry fee, but if you run of out of credits, you can re-buy for $1.99.

Another inexpensive slot tournament this weekend is the Frugal Friday tournament. It is held today, August 20 and is played on the Soloman’s Mines game. There is a $1.99 entry fee and players compete for a share of a $1,500 prize pool.

The casino tournaments this weekend are not only for online slots, though. For video poker fans, there is the Video Poker $2500 Bonus Bucks tournament. There are two different tournaments this weekend, one on August 21 and one on August 22. The first tournament is played on the Mega Multi Hand Deuces Wild game and the other is played on the Multi Hand Aces and Faces game. Both video poker tournaments have entry fees of $1.99 and players compete for $2,500 in bonus bucks.

There is also an online blackjack tournament this weekend. From Friday, August 20 to Saturday, August 21, the Blackjack Pot Percentage tournament takes place. The blackjack tournament is played on the Vegas Strip Blackjack game and players compete for a share of the pot. The entry fee is $0.99.

No matter what your budget or game of choice, Online Vegas should have you covered this weekend, since the online casino has a variety of tournaments available. To take part in the tournament action, visit Online Vegas Casino.

Blackjack tournaments at River Belle Casino

Tuesday, July 27th, 2010

For fans of online blackjack, it can be hard to find some good tournament action. Fewer and fewer online casinos are holding blackjack tournaments, as they continue to focus on the more popular slot tournaments. River Belle Casino, though, has a good number of blackjack tournaments every month.

The online casino holds scheduled and Sit n’ Go blackjack tournaments. The scheduled tournaments last longer, have more contestants and larger prize pools. They usually have larger entry fees, though. In the Sit n’ Go blackjack tournaments, they will start any time that there are a specified number of players entered in the tournament. Some of the Sit n’ Go tournaments are freeroll tournaments, which you can join for free.

The scheduled blackjack tournaments, on the other hand, start at a specified time and you must register in advance if you want to play. Right now, River Belle Casino is running scheduled blackjack tournaments that kind of feel like the Sit n’ Go variety. They are short and have low prize pools and entry fees, but they are multi-tiered.

There are several tournaments scheduled each day and those small tournaments continue until the end of the month. They can be thought of as a multi-stage tournament. The blackjack tournaments have small prize pools, entry fees and numbers of participants. The largest blackjack tournament in this promotion has an entry fee of $10 and a $126 prize pool. Only 250 players can enter the tournament and only the top three players in the tournament will win prizes, with the top player winning $63. That may not be an exciting amount, but players have the opportunity to win multiple tournaments during this promotion while paying only a small  buy-in.

If you like fast-paced blackjack tournaments, this is a good promotion for you. More information can be found on River Belle’s website.

Blackjack tournament at Online Vegas

Monday, July 12th, 2010

Mondays aren’t exactly a favorite day for most people. After a weekend of enjoying sleeping in, having fun with friends and family, and taking a break from the stress and/or tedium of the work week, we have to drag ourselves out of bed and do it all over again.

To make matters worse, online casinos tend to have a lot of tournaments over the weekend but don’t often offer much when you get back to work on Monday. Online Vegas Casino may not be able to cure your case of the Mondays, but they do have a good online tournament today for blackjack players.

The event is called the Blackjack Pot Percentage tournament. This tournament begins tonight at 8:00 PM and ends tomorrow night (Tuesday) at 8:00 PM, giving you 24 hours to play. The blackjack tournament is played on the Vegas Strip Blackjack game. There is a $0.99 entry fee for the tournament and that buy-in gives you 50 credits to play with. If you run out of credits and want more, you can re-buy for $2.49.

As the name indicates, in the Blackjack Pot Percentage tournament you play for a percentage of the pot. Therefore, there is more money up for grabs the more people enter and re-buy. The top 41 players in the tournament earn prizes.

If you’re not a fan of blackjack, there are also some online slot tournaments available to you at this time at Online Vegas. If you’re a night owl, there is the Red-Eye Pot Percentage tournament. This slot tournament is held every morning from 12:30 AM to 8:30 AM. Tomorrow morning’s Red-Eye Pot Percentage tournament is played on the Tarot Treasures slot. There is a $2.99 entry fee for the tournament and that fee gives you 250 credits to play with. You can re-buy for an additional $2.99.

If your sleeping schedule is a little more normal, you can take part in the $8888 Guaranteed slot tournament. That slot tournament takes part every Monday through Friday from 7:00 PM on one night until 7:00 PM the next night. Tonight’s tournament is played on the Ja Man slot. There is a $6.99 entry fee for the tournament and a re-buy for the same amount. This tournament features a prize pool that is $4,444 in casino credits and $4,444 in bonus bucks.

Each of these online tournaments and more can be found at Online Vegas Casino. More information can be found on their promotions page.
