There's a buzz of excitement around Jackpot City, precipitated by the arrival of two new slots and the introduction of the Mega Moolah progressive to Jackpot City Mobile. The new online slots - Octopays and Break Away - are the latest creations from Microgaming, the internet's champion casino game developer. New Slots with a Twist Octopays and Break Away are both fixed odds slots. This means fewer fancy bonus features and more fixed ways to win. This is combined with the modern sophistication one expects from a Microgaming video slot in the year 2012. The result is cutting-edge audio and graphics, silky smooth animations, and plenty of winning combinations. Octopays Octopays is 5-reel slot with an underwater theme. All the action takes place on the ocean floor with 243 different ways to win. The symbols include a treasure chest, a baby octopus, a ship's anchor, a moray eel and a giant legendary sea monster: the Kraken. The baby octopus serves as the wild symbol. The free spins feature is where you're most likely to make your money. If you bet max you could win a payout of 290,000 coins. Break Away This is an ice-hockey themed slot similar to Octopays in that it has 5 reels and 243 ways to win. Break Away does come with scatters, bonus rounds and stacked wilds. The emphasis, however, is still very much on those winning combinations, with multiple payouts possible on just one spin. Play Mega Moolah at Jackpot City Mobile Users of iOS and Android mobile devices can now play Microgaming's biggest progressive jackpot game at Jackpot City Mobile. At the time of writing the Mega Moolah prize pool was a stunning $6.7 million and growing.
Americans "went to the polls" again last November 13 - this time, to select which Dancing with the Stars contestant to send packing in the latest elimination round. It was double-elimination night and, besides low-scoring Kirstie Alley, the other contestant to bid adieu turned out to be Gilles Marini, the French actor who had consistently scored high in previous performances. In this week's semifinal round, the five remaining pairs - including Apolo Ohno and Emmitt Smith and, on the ladies' side, Shawn Johnson, Melissa Rycroft and Kelly Monaco - will be performing to the music of Michael Jackson's Bad album. The much anticipated grand finals is in two weeks. Are DWTS judges/audience and odds makers on same wavelength? Dancing with the Stars' competing pairs vie against each other for judges' points and audience votes. So how much do these latest decisions concur with the betting world? According to online sports books' most current (as of 31 October) betting odds, the contestants' (including Alley and Marini) odds of winning are as follows: Melissa Rycroft 50-1 Kelly Monaco 20-1 Kirstie Alley 20-1 Shawn Johnson 8-1 Gilles Marini 11-2 Apolo Ohno 7-2 Emmitt Smith 3-2 The coming semifinal and final editions will show just how accurate the bettors' odds are. How Betting on Dancing with the Stars Works Online sports books deal with sports outcomes, as well as that of other competitions like Dancing with the Stars. One can place bets on the show's individual episodes, just like on individual games or matches. With DWTS, odds are formed both before the season airs (when the contestants' names are announced) and may be revised throughout based on each pair's performance. Among the sports books placing bets on Dancing with the Stars is Bet365.
Betting on the outcome of US elections is a sports book staple. And it is no surprise that prior to his resignation as CIA chief on November 9, General David Petraeus had garnered a respectable position in the 2016 US Presidential Election betting odds. For example, before the 2012 election top bookmakers William Hill, Ladbrokes, and Paddy Power all gave Petraeus 50/1 odds. But these days, he may not even be elected dog catcher. The retired four-star general - celebrated for his handling of the Iraq surge - resigned after FBI investigators had uncovered his affair with his biographer Paula Broadwell. The scandal that has ensnared another general and is still unfolding has quickly became fodder for both late-night comics and odds makers as in: Bet which "other woman" gets a reality show! Odds on a David Petraeus Movie The markets currently offered are: Who will play David Petraeus? Who will play Paula Broadwell? When will the movie be released? The Irish betting house is offering odds of 7/1 that the Petraeus role will go to Jeff Bridges, The Big Lebowski star and veteran of other political roles. Coming in a close second are Ed Harris and Tommy Lee Jones, tied at 8/1. Who's a Good Bet to Play Paula Broadwell? The odds are 5/1 for Oscar winner Hilary Swanks, closely followed by Jennifer Connolly (10/1), Charlize Theron, and Julianne Moore , both at 12/1. The bet - which applies only to the first US- or UK-released movie on Petraeus and Broadwell - requires gamblers to bet only on EITHER the Petraeus or Broadwell roles, not both. Movie Release Date? Will the movie be released soon? Odds don't have it is likely. 2013 gets odds of 20/1, while 2015 could be the earliest release date at 5/1.

Lady Luck smiled on a number of Red Flush Casino members last week, in the form of handsome online slots payouts from the casino. A particularly fortunate player was DF, who won over £100,000 over the course of the week. British player DF played numerous online slots between 5 November and 11 November and, ample reward, won a whopping £186,762.50 in total - most notably on the bonus slot Boogie Monsters. "We are thrilled for DF - what win!" exclaimed promotions manager for the casino, Alex Roberts. "Red Flush always considers it a good reflection on the casino when significant amounts are won by players, as it disproves the notion that online casinos are all give and no take. We are especially proud of players who surpass the 100,000 mark - well done, DF!" The big win was not DF's first, who has won over £300,000 at Red Flush Casino since joining in February this year. Among his more memorable wins were £38,250, which he won on the bonus slot StarScape on 16 July, and £32,775, which he won on the feature slot Avalon on 10 October.

Total traffic rose at online poker rooms immediately following last week's relaunch of Full Tilt Poker, as hundreds of thousands of former customers rushed back to claim their funds and begin playing again. Poker traffic up According to PokerScout, which measures traffic across the online poker sites, around 400,000 former Full Tilt Poker customers rejoined the world of online poker in the week after the sites relaunch, helping to boost global traffic by around 10 percent across the board. Rather than snatch players away from its poker rivals, Full Tilt's renaissance appears to have aided its competitors. With thousands of people prevented from accessing their FTP funds for more than 18 months, it seems these reborn players are putting their funds back into Full Tilt but also into other sites. Where else to play? Aside from the obvious choice of trying out Full Tilt Poker's brand new sites, we recommend that players also shop around and find out what is best for them. Some of the best poker rooms include William Hill Poker, 888 Poker 3D and Cool Hand Poker.William Hill Poker, run by the same people who bring you its online casino, sportsbook and other offerings, is currently offering all new players the chance to claim up to $25 in free bets (or currency equivalent).
