Platinum Play running Christmas slot tournament

Friday, December 10th, 2010

Online casinos are hoping you’re in the Christmas spirit. Right now you are probably really into the Christmas spirit or hating everything to do with Christmas. It is determined not just by whether or not you are generally a Scrooge, but also by whether your shopping is going well, whether you have enough money to buy presents, whether you’re being bombarded with awful Christmas songs, and more. As for me, I’m being bombarded by terrible Christmas songs at work. Sure, there are some great Christmas songs, but those are overpowered by things like a pack of dogs barking “Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer.”

If you are in a “bah-humbug” mood, you will probably have no interest in the slot tournament featured in this blog. In that case, I apologize for contributing to your Scrooginess. If not, though, this tournament may be just what you’re looking for. Platinum Play Casino is holding a slot tournament called the Christmas Cracker slot tournament.

I have no idea why it’s Christmas cracker. I certainly hope it’s not a racist slot tournament. I don’t even know what a Christmas cracker is, but I know I get annoyed when I get a gift from someone that is something lame like nuts or crackers with cheese and meat.

Wherever the name came from, the Christmas Cracker slot tournament begins today, December 10, and runs until Christmas Eve, December 24. The tournament has a $20,000 guaranteed prize pool and the top 25 players in the tournament will walk away with some prize money. This is a free slot tournament, so there is no entry fee. However, if you run out of credits, re-buying will cost you $25.

The slot tournament is played on the Hitman slot, which doesn’t seem very Christmassy, but I guess hitmen have to work during the holidays, too. In the tournament, players can compete in one round of play and earn as many points as they can. This isn’t a tournament where you can keep playing over and over. It’s one round for everyone.

To take part in the Christmas Cracker slot tournament, whether you are a cracker or not, visit Platinum Play Casino.

Platinum Play giving away cruises

Wednesday, September 29th, 2010

If you’re like me, then you search the internet for online casino promotions, tournaments and other good deals. You are also sick of hearing about the Lord of the Rings slot right now, because every casino that carries the slot is holding a special promotion for it and at times, it can seem like that is the only promotion available. It’s not. One of the best upcoming promotions is the International Casino Games, where you can win big money, a cruise and more.

The International Casino Games begin on October 1 at Platinum Play Casino and during a 19-week period, a number of tournaments and other promotions will take place. The promotion boasts a total prize pool of $200,000 in casino credits, plus other prizes. The grand prize is a pair of tickets aboard a luxury cruise liner.

Every week, Platinum Play members will be able to participate in a variety of events, including live tournaments, contests that reward those who wager the most, random lucky drawings and exclusive events that you can attend by invitation only.

To enter the International Casino Games, all you have to do is register for a real-money account at Platinum Play Casino. Then check your email or the promotions page of the website for details on the weekly games.

I mentioned the money, but what makes this promotion exciting for me is the cruise. It will be a Caribbean cruise on a luxury cruise liner and in addition to getting the cruise for free, the grand-prize winner will also get an extra $50,000 onboard the cruise. Three runners up will also win $25,000 each on the cruise. In total, 50 pairs of cruise tickets will be awarded.

Four new slot tournaments at Platinum Play

Thursday, September 9th, 2010

The International Slots League, a slot tournament group that includes games from Platinum Play Casino and three other online casinos, has long been a favorite of slot fans. With the wide range of online slot tournaments held by the League, there is really something for everyone. Now Platinum Play Casino has introduced four new slot tournaments for the League.

One new slot tournament at the International Slots League is the $100 2-Hour Extender. The slot tournament has a $2 entry fee and you are allowed to re-buy up to 4 times. The Extender slot tournament “requires players to build up a score using add-ons to extend their base tally with the highest count winning,” according to Platinum Play.

The One-Shot slot tournament is different, giving players a single chance to get the highest score possible. There are no add-ons or re-buys for the One-Shot tournament, though wagering the maximum amount is advisable.

Another new slot tournament at the International Slots League is a $100 2-Hour Reloader tournament. The Reloader slot tournament is a re-buy only tournament. It has a $2 entry fee and players are allowed up to 20 re-buys. There are no add-ons for the Reloader tournament, putting all players on equal footing.

The fourth slot tournament that is new to the International Slots League is the $100 25-Minute Survivor tournament. This slot tournament has a $3 entry fee and there are no re-buys. The Survivor tournament has many elimination rounds and at the end, one player wins when they are the last player standing.

Mystery promotion at Platinum Play

Friday, July 16th, 2010

There is a new promotion going on at Platinum Play Casino, but unfortunately I can’t tell you anything about it. It’s a mystery.

Okay, I guess I can tell you. It is called the Great Casino Mystery promotion and it runs from July 16 to August 31. During that period, there will be a variety of mini-contests, each with prizes. It all goes along with a mystery, where you must find clues and attempt find a thief. The online casino will give out clues throughout the promotion.

Along with lots of prizes in the form of casino credits, grand-prize winners will also get tickets on the Orient Express, the famous train that was the setting for Agatha Christie’s mystery novel. Other big prizes for the promotion include 45,500 casino credits and 10.5 million rewards points.

Each week there is a small contest connecting to the larger promotion. From July 16 to July 20, there is a Lucky Draw contest. In this contest, anyone who wagers at least 20 credits on any casino game is entered in a pool and lucky winners share 4,500 casino credits.

The second week of the promotion runs from July 23 to July 27. This part of the promotion is an online slot tournament played on the Tomb Raider slot. Players compete for 4,500 in casino credits.

From July 30 to August 3, Platinum Play again has a Lucky Draw contest with a 4,500 prize pool. From August 3 to August 10, there is another Lucky Draw contest, but this time players compete for 3 million rewards points, Diamond Status for a year and 1,500 casino credits.

From August 13 to August 17, the online casino is holding another Lucky Draw contest, this time with tickets on the Orient Express up for grabs. Then from August 20 to August 24, players compete in a slot tournament on the Hitman slot game, with winners earning tickets on the Express. Finally, more tickets aboard the historic train will be awarded during a Lucky Draw from August 27 to August 31.

To help solve the mystery and have a chance at winning casino credits, a Diamond Status, rewards points and tickets aboard the Orient Express, visit Platinum Play Casino.

New games coming at Platinum Play Casino

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010

Platinum Play Casino is one of the leading online casinos in the industry. They have made a name for themselves for providing great games designed by Microgaming. They also have the benefit of being named after a precious metal, which have become increasingly popular among investors since the stock market, the U.S. dollar and Euros continue to go to hell. Laugh if you want, by I assure you that Google searches for gold, silver and platinum have increased drastically within the last year. What does that mean? Nothing, except that it could conceivably draw more traffic to Platinum Play Casino. What should really draw more traffic to their casino is the release of new games, though, and that is exactly what’s happening.

In June, the popular online casino will release three new games from Microgaming: Soccer Safari, Voila and High Speed Poker. Soccer Safari is an online slot that combines soccer (or football if you’re not American) with an African theme. You may have heard that the World Cup is played in Africa this year. This online slot features elephants, giraffes, leopards and more playing soccer. It is a 5-reel, 30-payline online slot that I think will be a big hit as it is launched just in time for the World Cup.

Voila is a game with a French theme. It is an online slot that features symbols of the Eiffel Tower, Champs Elysees, Arc Triomphe and other things associated with France, including their food, which looks good but I’ve heard tastes terrible. The Voila slot should thrill people from other places who have always wanted to visit France, though.

The third new game coming to Platinum Play Casino is High Speed Poker. This is a poker game that, as the name implies, it meant to be played quickly. The poker game is 3-card draw using a single hand. This game should be popular among people who like the strategy of poker but don’t like how slow the game moves at times.

To play any of the new games, visit Platinum Play Casino.

MegaPot Bingo at Platinum Play

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

When you think of bingo, you probably think of a lot of things. You think of geriatrics sitting around a bingo hall holding 50 cards each and dabbing them with markers while they wonder where their youth went. You think of a farmer’s dog and a song that likes to spell names (before Fergie made it cool). You might think of an annoying person’s exclamation when they figure something out. What you probably don’t think of is a good way to make money. And you’re probably right to do so. After all, as I always say, gambling is supposed to be a fun activity, not a money-making scheme. Even so, there is a good deal going on at Platinum Play Bingo right now.

Right now, Platinum Play Bingo is holding the January MegaPot Promo. During this promotion, a one-line win earns you ₤200 and a two-line win gets you a cool ₤300. If you get a bingo on a Full House then you win roughly what I make in a year: ₤1,000. Not too shabby, huh?

There are a few ways to enter this promotion. For every ₤20 you deposit, you will receive one bingo ticket. In addition, you will receive a ticket for every ₤20 wagered on online bingo. You also win bingo tickets for every ten bingo games you win in the Rainbow, Sunshine or Friendship lounges. And even if you’re not winning, you get one ticket for every 20 games you play in those lounges.

For fans of bingo, this is a great way to have a chance at some serious cash by playing the game that you enjoy. To take advantage of the promotion, visit Platinum Play Bingo.
