The newest promotion at Full Tilt is called Take 2, and is giving out double the Full Tilt Points and extra cash as well to every player who plays two ring games at the same time for at least five days. Players only need to earn a single full tilt point at each table to count for one day's worth of play.

The more you play during Take 2, the more cash you can earn. Reach four different levels depending on the number of days that you play and you can earn up to $50:

  • Level 1: Play for 5 days and receive $5
  • Level 2: Play for 10 days to get $10, for a cumulative total of $15
  • Level 3: Play for 15 days and take home another $10, a cumulative total of $25
  • Level 4: Play for 25 days and you'll earn an additional $25, for a cumulative total of $50

I've just received some great news from the good people at Golden Casino concerning their September slots tournament line-up. It seems they're moving up from simply doing one major free tournament per month and casino players can look forward to three huge tournaments during September.

All three will have re-buys for people who aren't satisfied (or are a little unlucky) with their first run. And the prizes are big, from a guaranteed $2,009 all the way up to the big Labor Day tournament with a prize pool of at least $100,000.

It helps when you do the smart thing, like Bodog has, and constantly strive to improve the service offered and add new features that players want to see.

Bob Menendez to be Barney Frank's Senate Counterpart?

Almost everyone who places bets online has known for a long time that our friend in Congress is Rep. Barney Frank, but Frank will eventually need his bill to get through the Senate before we're really looking good. And today I'm hearing that Senator Menendez (D-NJ) is introducing a bill designed to regulate and tax online poker rather than ban it altogether.

It would establish a regulatory framework that would allow online poker companies to register in the U.S. It would put in place consumer protections such as ensuring an individual is logging on from a jurisdiction where gambling is legal, and having accurate age-verification procedures.

Unfortunately Menendez's bill only deals with poker and neglects the rest of online gambling, but it's a start. I've always known taking care of the UIGEA would be tougher in the Senate as opposed to the House, and Frank hasn't exactly been having an easy time of things. It was the Senate the initially steamrolled the UIGEA in by attaching it to a Port Security Act after all. But Menendez has given us more hope that common sense may prevail when it comes to online gambling legislation.

Like I said the other day, things are definitely moving in our direction, and now we have a point man in the Senate and we can start putting some pressure on other Senators to follow suit.

The "Remembering a Legend" Slot Tournament

Golden Casino will be starting a $15,000 guaranteed slot tournament in honor of Michael Jackson's passing, starting on August 21st and lasting eight days. The guarantee means that no matter how many people sign up, there will be at least $15,000 in cash prizes given out to the winners.

Situations like this one always raise the question of poor taste, and whether or not Golden Casino should really be doing this. I thought about that before mentioning the tournament, but it's also true that Golden Casino runs these kinds of tournaments every month, so even if Michael Jackson were still getting ready to perform in London, there would be a $15,000 slot tournament taking place at the casino. It really is about remembering Michael Jackson.

H.R. 2267 Gains Momentum

Rep. Barney Frank's bill, the Internet Gambling Regulation, Consumer Protection, and Enforcement Act, has reached a total of 54 co-sponsors. The bill is designed to regulate the online gambling industry under the jurisdiction of the Secretary of Treasury. Most of the co-sponsors are Democrats but the Republican party has offered a few supporters as well, among them Rep. Ron Paul of Texas.

This bill has gained stronger support than any previous attempt at regulating online gambling, it seems to be only a matter of time before it passes the House and then it's on to the Senate.
