Well known as a bingo hall, and a fantastic one at that, what a lot of people might not realize is that Vic's Bingo also offers players a number of other games to choose from. Slots, Video Poker, Keno and Pull Tabs are all available, and there are quite a few options available for the Slot machines and Video Poker games.

Classic Keno can be played for $.05 up to $.50 per game. There are 10 Pull Tab games available, and playable for $.25, $.50, and $1. Video Poker also has 10 variations and takes anything from a nickel up to $2 per hand. The slots have almost two dozen different games and come in 1 line, 5 line, and 9 line forms. The minimum bet is only a nickel at the slots.

Sign up, put in a deposit so you can take advantage of the sign-up bonus, and then play any of these games, or just go straight for the Bingo. Vic's Bingo has several progressive jackpots as well as daily promotions offering prizes and cash to players.

In early June, the U.S. government seized more than $30 million from several accounts of payment processors who were acting as middlemen between two online poker rooms, Full Tilt and Poker Stars, and a small portion of players who had accounts with those poker rooms. The seizure was unexpected and there have been no significant updates concerning the government's next move.

Now a payment processor who handled some of those accounts is trying to get back $14 million through a court order that it says the government seized illegaly. The Poker Players Alliance says this is part of the $30 million and is planning to file a motion to participate in the case on the side of the payment processor.

Online Poker is still estimated to be a $16 billion a year industry, with more than half of that coming from players in the United States. What has this latest move accomplished? The poker rooms are still open (and thriving), and players (after a few hiccups) can still withdraw money from their accounts. The government exercised its' power, took some money, but accomplished nothing. Will this happen again and should it simply be considered a way of taxing the poker rooms? Or perhaps the government will realize the futility of its' actions.

What I do know for sure is that the poker rooms are still open and taking bets. Visit either of the two largest poker rooms and feel safe with the knowledge that these poker rooms will always be able to handle your deposits and withdrawals.

Online casinos using the Realtime Gaming software package have been offering live Blackjack tournaments for a while now, and they have certainly proved popular. The comparisons to poker are obvious, the house does not get an edge and only works as a dealer, and it lets casino players compete against each other, something that isn't done in regular casino games.

Sites like Rushmore Casino, Cherry Red, and Lucky 18 all offer these live tournaments. The single table option runs 24/7, has a one on one or sit and go option, and lasts ten rounds. Multi table tournaments are scheduled daily, have different skill levels, and the prize pools get larger the more entrants there are.

In an industry that rarely sees new games, other than slot machines and video poker games, something like Blackjack tournaments is very exciting. It's new, but based off a classic game, and has already proven to be a success judging by its' popularity.

Full Tilt has released two new exciting features as well as a whole new Poker Series starting next month. The first new feature is a hand replayer, which is an upgraded version of the Last Hand section accessible inside a poker room, in the top left. Now players and observers can watch the action from previous hands again instead of just reading the plays in the tiny chat box.

Mixed Limit games have been added and have quickly become very popular. There's a special 7-Game Mix combining Limit Hold 'em, Limit Stud Hi-Lo, Limit Razz, Limit Omaha Hi-Lo, Limit Stud, NL Hold 'em, and PL Omaha. Look in the Mixed Games section in Full Tilt's lobby for a full list of the available mixed limit games.

The thirteenth Full Tilt Online Poker Series has also been slated to start on Wednesday, August 5th. This series will feature 25 events just like the last series, and will also include the new mini-FTOPS. Once again, the mini-FTOPS events will have 1/10th the buy-in, but this time the mini tournaments will come after the main FTOPS events, not at the same time as was the case during FTOPS XII.

Each of the tournaments will be hosted by a poker pro and Full Tilt will be running loads of satellite tournaments for each event. Look in the satellites tab in the tournaments section of Full Tilt's lobby for a current list of the satellites available.

From Slots Oasis comes another five reel, 25-payline slot machine called King of Swing. King of Swing is a baseball themed slot featuring symbols like a trophy, hot dogs, soft drinks, batting helmets, trading cards, and more. Slots Oasis is a great casino for enjoying all casino games, but especially slots as they have such a wide variety.

The slot has a random jackpot usually worth more than one thousand dollars for the next lucky winner. There is also a fun win-win bonus feature activated by getting a Pitcher on reel 1 and a Batter on reel 5. On top of all that, any time a pitcher or batter is included in a winning combination, a player's payday is tripled for that combo.
