by Hillary LaClair, Senior Editor

               Microgaming has announced its latest additions to its software, including a multi-level video poker game, a slots game which has been deemed as racy, and a “noble feast” feature this month. The software developments add a new element to slots and video poker.

                Microgaming’s Jacks or Better has gained a significant amount of popularity recently in the Multi Level Power Poker series, compelling the software developer to release another. Deuces Wild Level Up Poker allows online casino players to gain levels in the game and increase their reward with every stage. 4 levels allow gamers to obtain an 8x multiplier. Additionally, the game features a “double your money” opportunity that appears randomly and can be worth up to 3,200 GBP if an user picks a card with higher value than the card that he or she holds. The game entails one hand of poker for each level, using a different deck every time. Betting in Deuces Wild may vary from 1.10 to 1.00 with a maximum bet of 20.00 GBP. If a Royal Flush is had, users are given a jackpot award of 4,000 coins.

                It doesn’t end there for Microgaming, who leads the industry in multi featured American and Australian style video slots games.  Online casino slots players will be impressed with Microgaming’s First Past the Post, a 5 reel, 25 pay line game which features crisp graphics, images of horses, punters, champagne, trophies  and the real sounds of a racetrack. First Past the Post allows users Wild and Scatter play, 30 free spins with multilpliers attached, and cash up to 40,000 GBP in base game and free spins. Players may also double or quadruple their earnings if they choose the right suit or color.

                Finally, Microgaming has launched its 5 reel 20 pay line video slot Sir Winsalot, a medieval themed game. Online casino players have the ability to win with two Scatter options, a “Wild Knight” to make winning combinations and 10 free spins with a 3x multilplier. Sir Winsalot is laid out as a medieval feast with dancing dames, jesters, minstrels, flashy goblets and of course Sin Winsalot complete in armor and treasure. A second screen bonus game is also available. Players may win up to 25,000 GBP in the base game, &5,000 in free spins and 6,000 coins in the bonus game.

                There is no question why Microgaming has gained so much popularity in the online casino industry when it provides some of the most innovative games, free spins and high earnings. Second to few, the software developer continues to dish out what the public demands.

by Hillary LaClair, Senior Editor

               SonicWarp.com, an online casino company based out of the UK has made a pretty big claim to their website, announcing that players don’t lose when participating in the game Treasure Chest. According to the internet casino, “the prize fund is added to daily, and a cash prize is up for grabs each and every month.

                If a SonicWarp member deposits 100 GBP, he or she will be given a token which is placed in the Treasure Chest given a certain condition. After making the deposit, which is completely refundable, the user is prompted with five multiple choice questions. The user must provide the correct answer to each question to have their token entered. Once a month, a token is selected from the Treasure Chest at random, and the person that the token belongs to takes the prize fund.

                Because the players can have their money refunded at any time, the site has said there can be no losers. If the user chooses to play the game, he or she will be entered into each monthly drawing until either the token is selected, or the user decides to leave the game. Additionally, players who refer friends to the game are awarded bonus tokens that will be added to the Treasure Chest. Should a player misplace their token, a new one can be issued for 10 GBP.

                To ensure users that these tokens are being drawn fairly, an individual involved in the game is invited each month to witness the drawing at SonicWarp’s head office, located in Shropshire.

Bodog Insists They’re Doing Fine

by Hillary LaClair, Senior Editor

                Bodoglife.com, the subject of recent controversy, has remained in the headlines this week after reports that the online gambling empire “continues to crumble.” It has been said that the internet wagering website has cut hundreds of jobs in Canada, and that payment processing will be an issue in the future.

                According to an article by David Baines in the Vancouver Sun, Bodog is headed down a slippery slope. The article was based on a number of recent events such as the recent seizure of millions of dollars from one Bodog payment processor, the cutbacks, Calvin Ayre’s recent retirement, more crackdowns on UIGEA violations, and an array of reports on the internet that players have had a hard time receiving payment.

                Despite what the media says, Bodog CEO Alwyn Morris has urged the public to take it cum grano salis. “The layoffs in question have actually taken place with a firm that provides Bodog some software and marketing support, but we are confident their service levels to us have not been, and will not be affected,” said Morris. "Bodog has not and is not planning to close its doors to any market. In fact, Bodog is researching new potential markets and will continue to accept new players from all existing markets.”

                The software company being referred to is Fiver Media, formerly Riptown Media. Baines tried to contact Fiver Media boss Jim Phillips, but was turned away with no given reason. “Phillips prefers to work in the background, Wizard of Oz style. But make no mistake: He has played an instrumental role in the development of Bodog’s online gambling activities,” Baines reported. “I would not be surprised if the U.S. Justice Department doesn’t have him, as well as Ayre, in its crosshairs.”

by Hillary LaClair, Senior Editor
