Online Vegas Presents Weekend Madness

Online casinos use different ways of attracting new customers. Among the most popular offers are various deposit match bonuses, including a welcome bonus to every new player, different money-back promotions and of course freeroll tournaments. Such tourneys are very attractive to a newbie because he or she doesn’t have to risk a penny of hard-earned cash. At the same time the prize pools of such competitions are much lower than those of the regular tournaments. Online Vegas Casino usually offers both kinds of tourneys and for this week two nice ones are ready. The first event called Frugal Friday will undoubtedly be liked by the low-rollers as the entry fee is really scanty. The Weekend Madness competition will last much longer than just a Friday, featuring a bigger prize pool, while demanding a higher entry fee.
The Frugal Friday tournament will have a prize pool of $1,500. As the name suggests, it will be played on Friday, May 14. The entrance to the competition will cost only $1, so practically anyone can try his or her chances at the event. The game chosen for the competition is a highly popular slot from Vegas Technology called Northern Lights. It tells a story of a difficult life in the north with dangerous animals and ice-covered plains. Besides the usual high value card symbols the 5 reels of Northern Lights feature an Eskimo man with a fishing spear and wearing a fur-coat, several beasts of the north, as well as a traditional northern dwelling called igloo. The Northern Lights themselves are a scatter symbol that will grant a payout even if only two of them appear anywhere on the reels, while 3 Northern Lights symbols trigger a unique bonus round where a player should guess which of several icebergs is safe for a polar bear to leap. Besides all that the Polar Bear symbol will give out the highest in the game fixed jackpot of 6,000 coins in case 5 of such symbols appear simultaneously on any of the 25 paylines. Triggering this jackpot will almost certainly get a player into the top of the Frugal Friday tournament’s winning list.
The Weekend Madness competition which is immensely popular at Online Vegas Casino every time features a new slot machine. For this week it will be played on Shaaark slot with incredibly dangerous predators swarming in the shallow waters of a peaceful lagoon. The risk of being bitten by a shark on a tropical vacation is much lower, though, than a player’s chances of winning a nice amount of money in the Weekend Madness tourney. With a huge prize pool of $50,000 the buy-in fee of $12.99 doesn’t seem big at all. And even if a player fails to win a lot during his first or any other try, there is always a possibility of a rebuy for the same $12.99. The first $30,000 of the prize pool will be distributed among the top players in the form of casino credits, while the remaining $20,000 will be given out to a large number of participants as Bonus Bucks, the official loyalty points of Online Vegas Casino. In spite of its name, the Weekend Madness tournament will last for a whole 5-day period, starting on the 14th of May, which is Friday and finishing on Tuesday, the 18th.
