$ 21K Blackjack Tournament Winners Advance to Super Bowl Week Grand Final











London, UK (PRWEB) January 12, 2009

The December BKJK Bowl Monthly Final at Lucky18Casino.com was yet another battle to the finish for a place at the $ 21,000 BKJK Bowl Grand Final coming up during Super Bowl week. Five more online blackjack players advanced to the $ 21K Final, January 28 at 6 p.m. GMT/10 p.m. EST. Players can still win seats or just buy-in for the $ 21,000 BKJK Bowl Final, January 28th.

The December Monthly Final was a typical shootout as everyone gunned for top places. Only three advanced from each table in the first level. The second level saw the elimination of many seasoned players like the infamous ‘Harve’ while newcomers like ‘Bucs67′ and ‘Jef’ seemed to get all the yummy cards.

Final table was anyone’s game. Conservative play was the theme on this table as players were reluctant to make big bets to separate themselves from the pack. Going into the final hands, there was only a 700 chip difference between First and Last place.

“In the final round, I made a sizable bet, hoping to put myself into a better position,” said ‘Jef’ who was in next to last place going into the last hand. “What can I say? Luck was on my side!”

‘Jef’ pulled a soft 20 while the dealer showed a 6. The remaining players were dealt 17s or less. Conservative play remained the theme and, using basic strategy, all players stood. The dealer slammed down an 18, much to the dismay of all players except ‘Jef’ who slipped into the lead.

The top five players earned a free seat at the $ 21,000 BKJK Bowl and a share of the $ 2121 in blackjack tournament prize money. The five that advance and their winnings are:

1st Place – jef – $ 1,004.22

2nd Place – mandymoney – $ 597.75

3rd Place – easymoney – $ 358.65

4th Place – bucs67 – $ 215.19

5th Place – poser284 – $ 215.19

There is one more Monthly Final before the Grand Final. Then, like this month’s top five, the top five players in the January Monthly Bowl will advance to the Grand Final. Until then, there are three qualifiers each week for free seats at the weekly finals where free seats to the next monthly final can be won. But those that don’t win their way to the $ 21,000 BKJK Bowl Grand Final on January 28th can buy-in for $ 275. BKJK Bowl will award a total of more than $ 50,000 in cash prizes.

ChatRoulette Still Mysteriously Closed While Alternatives Continue to Grow Rapidly

ChatRoulette Still Mysteriously Closed While Alternatives Continue to Grow Rapidly










Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) August 24, 2010

The buzz online is growing on why Chatroulette suddenly shut down and continues to be offline over 24 hours later. Users frustrated with this mysterious outage have started looking for alternatives creating rapid growth for similar sites that have opened since the Chatroulette phenomenon started.

MeetRandom ranks different Chatroulette type sites based on traffic and popularity. According to Meetrandom’s Allen Fox “traffic has on the average more than doubled for alternative websites to Chatroulette”.

Allen Fox explains “Keeping a site offline for so long may turn into a traffic nightmare as users get used to different platforms and become less inclined to return to a site that didn’t work. Once the site comes back online the decline in traffic could snowball since it is a peer to peer system.”

Either way this does not seem to be a very well thought out plan on the part of Andrey causing an uproar with his fan base and posting promises he could not keep by not releasing the new version as promised before midnight.

Allen adds “I have hope that Chatroulette will see a brighter day and be back better than ever. For now we will all just have to wait and see.”

About Meetrandom:

Meetrandom was created in response to the Chatroulette phenomenon starting early this year. We rank the best Chatroulette type sites and allow users to vote and rank different ChatRoulette type websites. Since its launch in July of this year Meetrandom has already had over a million visits and is growing rapidly.

BingoLingo Names Grand Rapids, Michigan Bingo Capital of the United States










Panama City, Panama (PRWEB) January 24, 2008

BingoLingo, a site devoted to bingo, both online and land based, is pleased to announce that Grand Rapids, Michigan has been named “Bingo Capital of the United States.”

It was determined that Grand Rapids has more bingo games and bingo players per capita than any other metropolitan area in the United Sates. “We used several criteria and Grand Rapids not only met these criteria, but exceeded every other major metropolitan areas in the number of bingo games and players,” said Susan Strafford, marketing director of BingoLingo (http://www.bingolingo.com).

Grand Rapids, located in western Michigan, has an ethnically diverse population of 1,320,487, including a large population of Roman Catholics which may, in part, account for the popularity of bingo. Careful research revealed that Grand Rapids has more bingo games per capita than any other major metropolitan area in the United States including all major cities.

It was also found that Grand Rapids has a large number of online bingo players. The new smoking ban recently imposed on bingo halls is thought to have contributed to the increase in the number of players who choose to play bingo on the internet. Other factors cited were the wider variety of games, larger prizes, and the convenience of playing at home.

“Colder climates in the north tend to have the largest percentage of online bingo players,” said Anthony Wayne, editor of the Internet Bingo Blog (http://www.internetbingoblog.com). “So, it’s not surprising that a city in the north was the winner. They love their bingo in Michigan.”

With the largest number of bingo players per capita, BingoLingo is pleased to award Grand Rapids, Michigan the title of “Bingo Capital of the United States.

BingoLingo is a website devoted to bingo, both online bingo and traditional bingo halls. BingoLingo strives to be the best source for bingo news and articles about current issues related to Bingo.

$17 million paid out in Microgaming Jackpots!!

$ 17 million paid out in Microgaming Jackpots!!










(PRWEB) December 21, 2000

Microgaming Jackpot Network Portal’s $ 17 Million Jackpot Payout Shatters World Records

December 17, 2000. London.    

Microgaming has announced that Jackpot Madness, the Microgaming Jackpot Network portal (http://www.jackpotmadness.com), has exceeded a record-breaking $ 17,000,000 in total jackpot payouts. This exclusive milestone firmly establishes Jackpot Madness as the world’s number one online jackpot destination.

The portal features 5 progressive slots games, the oldest and most popular being Cash Splash. Introduced in October 1998, Cash Splash is a three-reel, three-coin single-line progressive slot machine connected to numerous casinos using the company’s proprietary software. The game’s popularity has grown rapidly in two years and is now available at more than 50 online casinos. Two additional progressive games, “Wowpot,” another three-reel, three-coin, single-line progressive slot and “Lotsaloot,” a three-reel, three-coin, five-line progressive slot game, were added last April. These were followed in August by two more games: “Supajax,” a video poker progressive and “Fruit Fiesta,” a three-reel, three-coin, three-line progressive slot. With thousands of people playing simultaneously across the entire Microgaming Jackpot Network, massive progressive jackpots are won on a daily basis.

The site keeps a running real-time jackpot counter for inquiring gamers, as well as links to casinos offering Microgaming’s progressive games. It also features a casino search page where players can select a casino based upon their favorite jackpot game, current jackpot values or the price of placing a jackpot-enabled bet. Winner interviews are also featured on the site, as well as details about how much money has been won during the month as well as the total Jackpot Madness money paid.

A total of 580 lucky winners have shared in the $ 17,000,000 jackpot bonanza. The landmark win that pushed Jackpot Madness over the $ 17 million point was a $ 20,625.06 jackpot won by Patricia M. at The River Belle Casino December 16.

More than 55 players hit super jackpots in November alone, breaking all previously-held monthly payout records and totaling nearly 2 million dollars. December guarantees to be another exceptional month, with more than $ 1 million paid out in the first half of the month week already.

“ As anticipated, Jackpotmadness.com is hugely successful and drawing vast numbers of players to the over 60 casinos connected to the portal.” said Lisa Wycherley, Senior VP of Operations at Microgaming Systems. “With over $ 16,000,000 in jackpot payouts in a relatively short period of time, the popularity of the site has exceeded all of our expectations.”
