Midweek Slots Tourneys Pulling Big Crowds
Written by Mel Dunkin
Online Vegas is rapidly making a name for itself as one of the very best spots on the net to enjoy some hot slots tournament action.
Right now, Online Vegas is running three exciting online tournament events. In addition to the two conventional slots tournaments, they are also offering players the option of competing in a video poker event. Part of the attraction of the midweek timing appears to be that their well-known and well-supported weekend events can become somewhat overcrowded. Buy-ins at these events tend to be cheaper than on the weekend and many players seem to feel that the less crowded midweek events improve their chances of a win without having to spend too much. For others, of course, it’s just one more opportunity for some fun!
In today’s slots event, Solomon’s Mines is the game of choice and there is a guaranteed prize pool of $8 888. It doesn’t stop there, however. Online Vegas will be adding a sweetener in the form of an additional $4 444 in bonuses. It’s just $6.99 to join in and the player that makes first place on the leaderboard will be pocketing $2 440 for the achievement.
All of the standard midweek tournaments run for a single twenty-four hour session and you can join in at any time. On occasions, there are longer events although, typically, these tend to kick off on a Friday and last right through until the following Tuesday. On these occasions, you can expect a much bigger field owing, no doubt, to the fact that the casino offers some exceptionally juicy guarantees of $50K or more.
Playing at Online Vegas is not entirely about slots games, however. Apart from the video pokers mentioned, the online venue is able to offer you some great action at the tables including blackjack, roulette and craps. In common with the other members of the Vegas Technologies network, Online Vegas offers over a hundred slots games as well, making it ideally positioned for the type of high-paying, slots tournaments described.
If you’re not part of the Online Vegas family, downloading the games lobby and registering is just too simple and you will score a 100% match bonus of up to $500 on your first deposit. If you’re not in time for today’s tourneys, remember they are run every Wednesday and weekends as well.
