VIP Casino has been providing excellent gaming for online players since 1999. The casino is licensed by the Lotteries and Gaming Authority of Malta and is powered by Cryptologic. For the month of March VIP Casino offers not one but two slots tournaments because as the promo says “good things come in pairs”. For the tournaments VIP Casino has selected two of the best Cryptologic slots, Millionaires Club and Bejeweled.
The Millionaires Club tournament has begun on the 1st of March and will run till the 15th of March. The Bejeweled tournament will start on the 16th of March and run till the 31st of March. Both tournaments have an entry fee of $10 and a prize pool of $1,000. The prize pool will be distributed as follows. The winner will get $500, the runner up will get $250 and players placing from the 3rd to the 7th place will get $50 each. The tournaments can be accessed from the games menu. Players can join at any time during the promotion period. The entry fee will be deducted directly from the players’ accounts on signing up for the tournament. For the tournaments each player will be allocated $1,000 worth of chips. The player will be given 30 minutes to play. The objective is to maximize the balance at the end of the tournament. One of the useful features of the VIP Casino tournaments is that players need not utilize their 30 minutes at one go. They can leave the tournament in between and later take up from where they left off. If at any time during the tournament, the player is satisfied with his winnings he can stop without using the remaining time and the balance that time will count as the final score. The player can check his ranking by following the instructions on the right hand side of the tournament screen. Each player can enter a tournament only once. The winners’ accounts will automatically be credited within an hour of the tournament finishing. The chips used in the tournament are play money and cannot be cashed.
Millionaires Club is the leading progressive jackpot offered by Cryptologic online casinos, though the jackpot cannot be hit during the tournament. But players at VIP Casino can play it outside the tournament and aim for the $800,000 progressive jackpot as it now stands. Millionaires Club features a “spin a wheel” type of bonus game. Bejeweled is based on the popular game of the same name. It is a unique slot in that 5 lines are depicted on the screen instead of the usual 3 and that 5 of the paylines run vertically across each reel.

InterCasino, powered by Cryptologic, was the first fully functional online casino. Even today it sets the pace for the online casino industry through its excellent set of promotions. Featuring prominently are three tournaments hosted every month. Every month a new set of exciting and topical games are selected from the vast repertoire at its disposal.
This March the first tournament is the Street Fighter tournament that runs from the 1st of March to the 10th of March. The tournament has an entry fee of $10 and offers a prize pool of $500. The first prize is $250, the second prize is $100 and the next six places get a prize of $25 each. The players start with a tournament balance of $500 and get 30 minutes to play. The Street Fighter is one of Cryptologic’s famous branded slots based on Marvel Comics super heroes. It features Ken, Ryu, Guile, Chun Li and Sagat as the Street Fighters. The game enables players to choose their favorite super hero to act as the wild symbol. Street Fighter was converted to a slot game from an arcade video game and it carries the superb animations and sound effects of the original arcade game.
The second tournament, which runs from the 11th to the 17th of March, predictably features St. Patrick’s Day theme. St. Patrick’s Day falls on the 17th of March this year. The slot game chosen for this tournament is ‘Luck of the Irish’, which should not be confused with the Vegas Technology slot having a similar name. The Cryptologic slot offered at InterCasino is not on the list of slots routinely offered. This is pulled out of oblivion only on special occasions and offered for a short duration. Luck of the Irish will go back into hibernation after the 17th so players should make full use of it while it is there. The symbols are typically Irish and include Four Leaf Clover, Pot Of Gold, Horse Shoe and Leprechaun. The reels are set in a verdant green color, which is the color of St. Patrick’s Day. The structure of the tournament is the same as the earlier one.
The final tournament starts on the 18th of March and runs till the end of the month. It is based on the Multi Player Texas Hold’em Bonus Poker game that is very popular at InterCasino. This game is modeled on the poker game but with a difference. Players compete individually with the dealer, as in blackjack, and not with each other as in poker. A number of betting rounds are provided so as to simulate the excitement of the real Hold’em game. Players should watch out for the side bet that pays up to 1000 times the bonus bet wager.
