New 50-line Marvel Slot Games at Betfred Online Casino

October 24, 2011 - New 50-line Marvel Slots at Betfred Casino

Playtech-powered and Gibraltar licensed Betfred Casino, one of the most massive online gaming sites in the world, has announced that it is launching its 50-line version of the Marvel series of video slots. The marvel series feature all the popular comic book characters and also offers a massive joint progressive jackpot.

Betfred Casino has revealed that by adding more pay-lines, players are given more opportunities to win.

The Marvel games that have been enhanced with more pay-lines are Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk and Fantastic Four. The only thing that has been changed in these particular games is the fact that the pay-lines have been increased.

Players will benefit by the increase in the pay-lines as they will be much less likely to bust out quickly if they are betting at the same coin denomination. The reason for this is because players will be spreading their bet out over multiple lines. Betting $1 per spin on a 25-line game will result in players spending 4 cents on each line. However the cost per line is halved by playing on a 50-line game.

The downside is that line wins have half the value as if players were to bet $1 per spin in the 25-line version of the game and get a line combination paying 100x their line bet, they would win $4 compared to only $2 in the updated 50-line version of the online casino game.

Since the chances of getting a win on the 50-line version of the games are double, the odds of these new Marvel slots at Betfred Casino are the same.

Nostalgia Online Casino Looks to the Future

August 10, 2011 - Nostalgia Casino Looks to the Future

Nostalgia Casino has not featured in the news very often. That is because this online casino is more geared towards the subtleties of online gambling than the big Vegas style lights that many online casinos attempt to copy.

The casino has trotted along quite successfully in recent years, building a reputation as one of the more comfortable online gambling establishments.

Currently, the casino is offering a $500 welcome bonus. Many online casinos offer far more, and have therefore leapfrogged Nostalgia Casino in the past with regards to grabbing the online casino headlines. However, most of the time, the fine print of these welcome bonuses are not reported on and the huge 'bonuses' are nothing more than a ruse to get online players to bet beyond their means.

Nostalgia Casino's welcome bonus may be modest, but it is also quite transparent. The casino is offering new players $20 free straight up just for verifying their age. This is also important for the promotion of responsible gambling. The $20 is payable once the first dollar has been deposited. The second deposit is also solid, with a 100% match of up to $80. Once again, this is not a huge incentive, yet it is honest and straightforward. The third welcome bonus is a little smaller, with a 50% bonus of up to $100. On the fourth and fifth welcome bonus, the offering gets slightly bigger with 50% free up to 150%.

The casino, powered by Microgaming, offers 439 games, each offering a classic feel that will take the casino well into the future.

August revenues soar at Kansas City, St. Louis casinos

August revenues soar at Kansas City, St. Louis casinos
The St. Louis market’s revenue, meanwhile, was up 1.4 percent in August. The overall August take from Missouri's 12 casinos was up 0.2 percent, at $148.4 million.

That ‘s come in the aftermath of a 4 percent year-over-year rise in statewide revenue in July, leaving the state ahead for the fiscal year, which began July 1. While the larger casino markets, including Las Vegas and Atlantic City are still suffering, Missouri is more than holding its own.

Missouri casinos have benefited from Midwest gamblers’ staying closer to home, according to experts.

The casinos have been bolstered by Missouri voters last November lifting the state’s loss limit, which had restricted gamblers to a $500 loss for every two hours.

Thus far this fiscal year, casino revenue going to Missouri state government, a combination of admission fees and a tax on revenues, is up 5.2 percent.

New casino for New York's Long Island eyed

New casino for New York's Long Island eyed Suffolk County politicians William Lindsay and Wayne Horsley are saying they have seen estimates that a gambling establishment could generate millions in revenues. They say it's also possible 10,200 new jobs would be created, producing $445 million in salaries.

A task force to study the feasibility of opening a casino on New York's Long Island is being proposed by local lawmakers. 

The Shinnecock Indian Tribe in Southampton has expressed an interest in working with Suffolk officials to open a casino, although the group still needs to receive federal recognition before it can move forward with the proposal. Guesses vary on how long that process might take, but, with the incoming President of the U.S., Barack Obama, favoring reparations for once-oppressed groups, the process may move along quickly, after next Jan. 20.

Legislation is still required to create the task force, but that is in the works. The U.S. Department of Interior, Bureau of Indian Affairs, is processing the application from the tribe. 

Vegas Casino Online brings the best progressive online casino games to your home,office or your preferred place to be.

Throughout the U.S., tribal government gaming is working for Indians and non-Indians. Indian gaming facilities operating in 29 states -- including three in New York -- employ more than 300,000 people, while providing much needed funds to Indian tribes for education, housing, health care, clean water and other basic services. Gaming has helped Indian nations gain control of their own futures. It’s quite simple; Indian gaming works and that’s why the Nation is strongly considering opening a gaming facility. Gaming would help provide resources that we need to maintain our tribal lands, preserve our culture, educate our children, and remove the need for state and federal assistance.
Funds from Indian gaming can make a dramatic difference in an Indian tribe’s ability to care for itself and its future. Homes, health care and education are the immediate concerns for the tribe. The Long Island tribe will use the revenues from economic development to improve its senior and youth center, repair damage to its cemetery, create a tribal police force to monitor our beaches, reopen an oyster project, open a day care center, and provide resources for children so that they can receive a sound education.
According to research conducted by Montana State University, the most frequent use of Indian gaming money is for tribal education so any member who desires to attend college can do so.

Republicans eye plan for gambling expansion in Ohio

The leader of the Republican-controlled Ohio Senate has agreed to host public hearings this week to discuss Gov.
Ted Strickland’s proposal to install video slot machines at the state’s horse-racing tracks to help plug a $3 billion deficit in the state budget.

Senate President Bill Harris (R-Ashland) said this week that hearings on Strickland’s proposal will be spearheaded by a five-member panel chaired by Sen. Mark Wagoner (R-Toledo).

Harris has opposed to Strickland’s proposal to move forward with the slot machines, saying any gambling measure should be put to a public vote. The hearings, he said, are intended to help legislators better understand the proposal.

Harris said he continues to believe “the voters of Ohio should have the say.”
