Mega Fortune Slot Game Jackpot Pays Out
The quality online casino provider, Net Entertainment, was thrilled to announce this week that one of its slot games had paid out an enormous jackpot – the second time in a period of four months. Mega Fortune Jackpot made one Swedish player extremely happy when she hit the Big One at Casino Euro online casino site and took home the mind boggling sum of €4 million!
Net Entertainment supplies games and software to a number of top quality casinos in the industry, including Betsson. The Chief Executive Officer of the site, Magnus Silfverberg said: “Being part of a linked jackpot network is of great value as it ensures that the jackpot grows to large amounts in a short period of time. Large jackpots are imperative for driving traffic and attract much interest in the player community.”
As such, the Managing Director of Net Entertainment, Bjorn Krantz said: “It is my pleasure to congratulate yet another multi-millionaire. We recognize a huge player interest in Mega Fortune™ and it’s delightful to see how quickly these pooled jackpots can accumulate to such high payout levels. Our games offering is world class and with focus on innovation, frequent games releases and quality we are committed to provide our Licensees with exciting games thereby maximizing the player experience.”
Noble Casino Re Launches with Massive Welcome Bonus
While welcome bonuses and other promotions abound on the internet, it is always good to find a bonus that is one notch above the rest. Noble Casino, an online casino that is powered by Playtech software group, was relaunched this week and did so in style with a promotion that not many players can afford to turn down. The site announced a massive welcome bonus for all new players, essentially guaranteeing them $4000 for free!
The bonus works like this: Players need to open an account and make their first deposit of up to $1000. The site will match that deposit by 100%, which is generous enough in itself. But the generosity doesn’t stop there. Each of the subsequent three deposits, each one up to $1000, will enjoy the same 100% match bonus – putting players in line to benefit from up to $4000 at Noble Casino. An extra attraction is that all the games at the casino site are included in the welcome bonus, such as blackjack, slots, roulette and all else.
WSOP Record Broken as Cada Wins Main Event
Joe Cada became the youngest player in history to win the World Series of Poker Main Event after he beat nearly 6,500 other players from around the world this week. The 21 year old college dropout beat the 46 year old Maryland logger, Darvin Moon, who had an incredible chip advantage throughout the game, in a tense, three hour head to head match. However, it was Cada who was the true hero of the game, and he came out the other end $8.55 million richer in the no limit Texas Hold ’em competition that kicked off in July this year.
Cada was praised by a gracious Moon who said: ”I’m old enought to be his father. The kid made some phenomenal plays.” Cada has been playing poker for several years now and by the time he was 19, he had earned enough money to buy his own home – in cash! Darvin Moon doesn’t leave the final table emptyhanded, however, earning himself $5 million. In fact, the entire final table, dubbed the November Nine, won at least $1 million each in one of the poker world’s most popular live tournaments ever.
Two New Online Casinos Launched
Online casino fans will be happy to note that two brand new online casinos have been launched by top software groups, promising superb gaming experiences. The first site, Crazy Slots Casino, works off the Vegas Technology platform and brings players some of the best games in the business through over 100 titles. These include slots, video poker, specialty games and more. The site is giving away a massive $12,500 welcome bonus to new players and is running guaranteed tournaments with prize pools of up to $400K this month.
The second site to make its way to the industry is Cabaret Club Casino, a Microgaming site that is operated by the Palace Group, which also runs Spin Palace online casino. While the site is limited to non-US players only for the moment, it offers a magnificent multi currency, multi lingual gaming experience to players seeking the ultimate in casino entertainment. Cabaret Club is currently offering up to $150 free on a match bonus, as well as a generous four levels of VIP rewards to loyal players. With hundreds of games and a massive jackpot network valued at millions, it is easy to understand the appeal of this site.
