Effective March 31, 2012, Robert Franklin Moyer, will step down as the General Manager of Ocean’s Eleven casino, in San Diego, California. This is one of the news in the industry that even online casino players, particularly from California, know so much about. Moyer spent 15 years as general manager of the casino, but his experience in the industry goes back to his childhood.

He got exposed to the game of poker as a child with family members, and when he joined the Navy, he held poker games on the ship and hustled pool in exotic ports. Right after his US Navy career, Robert Moyer has decided to put up his own poker room and since then, has bought and sold several casino properties in the state. Imagine if online casino games like poker came out during Robert Franklin Moyer’s time, he would be the richest online casino player today.

Because of his skills and experiences, he was even hand-picked by Haig Kelegian, Bob Carter and Dan Dreger when they bought Jerry’s Room, which eventually turned to Ocean’s Eleven casino. Colleagues and friends see him as a talented man and a good leader. To prove this, under his watch, Jerry’s Room has turned from a 5-table room to a 50-table casino, expanding and building a solid reputation in the industry at the same time. He also gave attention to women poker players, creating the California State Ladies Championship as well as other friendly tournaments and businesses in the county.

To give honor and celebrate his years in Ocean’s Eleven, an official retirement party will be held on February 25, 2012 at the Elks Lodge, near Ocean’s Eleven casino.

Green is the color of money, as many would say. In Sky Vegas an online gambling casino, green is the color of the Leprechaun suit that would lead you to big bucks. One of their online casino games that has made news recently is the Leprechaun’s Luck.

It is an Irish-themed, five-reel 20-line slot game that comes with two individual bonus rounds. It features a Progressive Jackpot which the players can win from two separate bonus rounds, the first will be the well wishing bonus round and the second is the rainbow bonus round.

Just recently, Sky Vegas has awarded a lucky player with a total of GBP 147k, just for a GBP 1 used on Leprechaun’s Luck. It’s really true that the larger jackpots are where you’d least expect them to be, as proven by this slot game, and with this recent win, with a very small fund, it certainly pays to play. Slot games is one of the online casino games that is almost always taken for granted.

Now how does this work?

There are featured spins with extra locked wild symbols. The players can also autoplay and place 25 bets in series automatically and to add more fun and adventure, online gambling casino players are free to change the color and set the stake of their game. A spin of the reels will end in a random set of symbols and if the combo on the reel forms a line of 3, 4 or 5 matching symbols, then the player wins. It is also easier to spot whether it’s a win or not, because the winning lines are highlighted and credited to the player’s account balance. It is indeed a game of pure luck. But as the cliché goes, give luck a chance to happen. Who knows? Maybe it will.

Unlike in US culture (and US legislation), sports betting, just like online casinos, is much more accepted and even celebrated in European culture, and some of the most successful companies in the region made their names through sports gambling. William Hill, the UK’s top betting office and online casino, has been chosen as the new sports gambling partner for the FA cup. William Hill is not only Official Supporter of England and the FA Cup, but the company will also sponsor the FIFA World Cup in 2014. This only adds to the prominence and presence of the company in the UK and in Europe, as they are currently already partners with the Scottish Football Association and the Scottish Cup. Ralph Topping, CEO of William Hill, is delighted that the new partnership “becomes a welcome addition to our quality range of sponsorships within darts, snooker and racing.”

Peter Daire, the FA’s Head of Sponsorship, is equally delighted, saying “They have a strong track record in sports sponsorship and a considerable online and high street presence that will enable us to strengthen our communication platforms for England and the FA Cup.”

When it comes to anything related to gambling, William Hill is and continues to strive towards the best. The success of the William Hill Casino and their profitable expansion from brick-and-mortar betting operations to the internet territory only proves this fact, and punters around the world who either like to place bets in shops or simply do it online can expect a high quality of service from the company, and increased levels of excitement and adrenaline for the games to come.

Online casino sites and gamers alike have much to be excited for this year, as BetSoft continues to lead the 3D revolution when it comes to online casino games. Much like in Hollywood and the film industry, online gambling companies are quick to take advantage of new technologies that allow even more immersive experiences for players than ever before. BetSoft is dedicated to creating games that exceed the standards of even the best animated 3D films. Imagine 3D slots with graphics that rival your favorite films like Toy Story 3, Kung Fu Panda 2, and even Avatar! In fact many of BetSoft’s game designers and artists have experience working in the video game and feature film industry.

BetSoft’s Expandicon technology is what makes their wildly successful Slots3 line of virtual slot machines and progressives so successful. Not only are the graphics state-of-the-art (not to mention the original music and sound effects) but they load smoothly, too! Bells and whistles are good but the core elements of a game are still what make it great, and BetSoft knows this. This is why all Slots3 games have at least 3 features that make for a unique playing experience for gamblers. Features include multipliers, bonus mini-games, and free spins.

BetSoft was founded in 2006 and they continue to develop new games and adopt new technologies—plenty of online casinos feature BetSoft games, and this is a testament to the company’s success, and more importantly, to the quality of the games that they design.

An unnamed woman is the 3^rd in a fortuitous series of events this season at Harrah’s Resort and Casino in Atlantic City, USA.

Three Card Poker 6 Card Bonus™ was launched by Caesars Entertainment on September 26^th this year, and to date it seems that lightning does strike the same place not just twice, but thrice. The first winner took home another $1 million jackpot (for a 19$ bet) less than a month later on October 23rd, then on Black Friday, November 25^th, another player by the name of Richard N. Wood, of Newport News, Virginia, won $100,000.

But back to our lucky woman, who claims she had only played Three Card Poker 6 Card Bonus twice in the past: after about 2 hours at the table on the fateful night of December 18^th she was dealt a Royal Flush—and diamonds at that!

Sadly, only Caesars, Harrah’s Resort, Bally’s, and Showboat Atlantic City customers can enjoy Three Card Poker 6 Card Bonus™. But if you live far away from Atlantic City, or the USA for that matter, don’t lose hope—online gambling might possibly be your ticket to a life of pure, work-less leisure. Play online casino games whose progressive jackpots in casinos can amount to well over several million dollars at a time, without ever having to leave the comfort of your own bedroom. That’s leisure in itself!

In fact, just in September of this year, a 20 year old Norwegian who was playing at Betsson Casino hit the progressive jackpot on Net Entertainment’s Mega Fortune video slot game, earning €11.7 million and a spot on the Guinness Book of World Records.
