Hello folks!

Happy holidays to everyone! We're now into the season of giving and I'm sure everyone is buying gifts and presents for their loved ones. :) There are great online casino promotions for Christmas. We would like to highlight two of them: at PlayTech, Casino Las Vegas has released an amazing calendar of promotions for the entire December month, with lots of giveaways, bonuses and more to win. At Microgaming, the Jackpot Factory Group has great promotions presented in a great way, just take a look.

Other news from the front of online casinos is the drop of Bonus Accounts at Aztec Riches Casino, Challenge Casino, UK Casino Club, Golden Reef Casino and Music Hall Casino. There are no longer bonus accounts! The welcome bonuses offered by these properties become very interesting, with a fair wagering requirement of 20x Bonus+Deposit.

Stay tuned with our newsletter, as a new PlayTech casino is heading its way to our gaming land: Aqua Lounge Casino, which seems to be promising. BTW, have you tried the new PlayTech casino offering $2,200 in bonuses to new players? It's FastWin casino, and we love its design and theme!

Also, it's no longer needed to try your luck on Millionaires Club at Cryptologic Casinos - it has been won very recently. There's no news actually about the winner. But the jackpot won was approximately $1,750,000.00! One thing for sure, the lucky winner won't be short on cash this year to purchase gifts! :))

Have a great gaming week-end!

Best of luck. :)

Ho Ho Ho Microgaming Video Slot - Ho Ho Ho is a unique Christmas theme video slot. Some tips to understand this game and to take the maximum profit: - Play all 9 lines. If it is too expensive for you, then reduce the coin size. It increases your chances to win. - Remember that the Santa symbol is wild with all symbols excepted scatters (presents). It also doubles the regular payout. Look out for Santa, as if you get all five on a payline, you win $15,000 (with a $9 bet)! - The present symbols are scatters: If you get two, you get x1 your bet; If you get three of them, you get x2 your bet; If you get four, you get x20! If you get five presents, you get x60! Those symbols also activate the free spins (20), and all payouts are doubled during the free spins round (including the maximum jackpot, which climbs to $30,000 with five Santa symbols for a $9 bet). You need to get at least 3 present symbols to activate free spins. And again, you can get more free spins during the free spins round, if you get another scatters during the round. You can play this game at all Microgaming Viper casinos.

2ND DEGREE: GAMBLING MYTHS, LEGENDS AND BELIEFS

The MegaBucks Curse: Do you know that there is a legend around the biggest progressive Vegas slot machine? The legend tells that MegaBucks winners all die after hitting the jackpot. Las Vegas is full of these rumors and it all started with the unfortunate real accident who happened to Cynthia Jay-Brennan, a cocktail waitress who had hit a $34.9 million jackpot at the Desert Inn, in March 2000. She was left quadriplegic by a car accident. The vehicule was operated by a drunk driver. One year later, the driver was sentenced to 28 years in prison. Since then, for example in March 2003, an old man won $39.7 million Megabucks jackpot at the Excalibur casino, and days later rumors already were floating around that tragedy had overtaken him. There was diverse death stories, such as an overdose, a plane crash or even a gang fight in which the lucky winner has been killed. There was other stories like that around other winners, never verified. Still want to hit a jackpot at this game? ;-) MegaBucks is an inter-linked progressive slot machine game available at some Vegas casinos. The jackpot resets at an amazing $7 million and the biggest win was $39.7 million (and of course the winner is not dead. ;-) ).
