For those who have been living under a log recently, May was the fifth birthday of reputable Microgaming casino Red Flush Casino. "In a world where online casinos come and go almost overnight, a five year anniversary is a big achievement and is only going to happen once, so we wanted to make the most of it and spoil our members as much as we could," commented Alex Roberts on the occasion, the promotions manager for Red Flush Casino. The 'most' lavish way to 'spoil members' took the form of a leaderboard tournament, Red Hot Reels, which gave away $225,000 in prizes, cash and giveaways. Red Hot Reels ran from the beginning of May until 2 June. The tournament went exceptionally well, according to Roberts, and after three qualifying rounds and a two week-long final a winner emerged, known as IA. An Australian Red Flush enthusiast, IA won the tournament with a staggering final score of 9 568 points. This netted him the grand prize of a cruise worth $15 000, plus $10 000 cash and casino bonuses worth $5 000. Meanwhile, second place went to Red Flush player SE, who had a total of 8 914 points. He won an LG home cinema system and 3D LG television, complete with nifty 3D glasses. Just one of the many delights on offer. Birthday month promotions were staged as locations on a beautiful 'online birthday island' - the island of Moolahn Rouge - where Red Hot Reels was understandably the chief tourist attraction. However, other perks such as random bonus days, special weekend offers and interactive games like '99 Red Balloons' also made up part of the Moolahn Rouge landscape.

With unemployment at a staggering 27 percent and operating in deep recession mode for several years now, it is no small wonder that the market for online gaming services in Spain has leveled off. Anyone who can read a newspaper will have noticed that this is a country whose economy is in bad shape. Despite the obviousness of its condition, the Spanish government has said that the worst of the downturn has passed and that it expects quarterly growth before the end of the 2013 calendar year. This optimism is apparently based upon their belief that the country has become more competitive and that its exports are growing. The Spanish online gambling authority has not yet allowed online slots to be offered in the market, but the belief is that when they do there is the possibility of a dramatic statistical upsurge in the future. The gambling regulator's report said that gross gaming revenues in the Spanish market reached 60.4 million euro in the first quarter of 2013, around 1 million euro less than in the fourth quarter of 2012. Additionally, wagering was up less than 1 percent reaching a peak of 1.37 billion euro. Interestingly enough, betting on sports via the internet pulled in 50% of the markets' gross gaming revenues. This also represents a minor increase over the preceding quarter. Other gambling venues such as bingo declined further and cash poker stayed at the same level, although tournament GGR increased. It has been suggested that the Spanish gambling authority has been discussing the possibilities of a compact with France & Italy to increase player liquidity.

Following the news that Michael Jackson's ghost has given testimony in the Jackson v AEG lawsuit in the US, a leading online sportsbook is now asking if the same thing could happen in the UK. Jacko Ghost Testifies Michael Jackson died a number of years ago, but he returned to testify at the Los Angeles County Superior Court in order to clear Dr Conrad Murray, when AEG Live CEO Randy Phillips claimed Jacko had appeared from beyond the grave to confirm that his death was an accident. A Jackson family lawyer objected with the reasonable argument that this was triple hearsay - he said Phillips was relaying a conversation with Lionel Richie's ex Brenda, who had spoken to a medium who allegedly contacted Jacko. Bizarrely, the judge overruled this and allowed the testimony with poor old Jacko to stand. Will He Appear Again?William Hill Sports is known for delivering betting on a wide range of bizarre scenarios, and the folks at this leading online sportsbook couldn't help opening a market here - they are offering 25/1 odds on a judge in a British Court one day accepting sworn testimony as evidence from a ghost or medium communicating with a ghost. "We had to double check that it was not April Fool's Day," Hill spokesman Rupert Adams said of the betting market. "The good news is that we don't think a British judge will be accepting similar evidence any time soon."

Big Couple of Months Atlantic City casinos will have until June 30 to apply for an online gambling license, while overseas and interstate software companies and operators will have until July 29, the gaming authority said. This would give regulators enough time to investigate all applicants, with more time for companies that are not yet licensed in New Jersey. Earlier this month New Jersey published the main points of the state's landmark decision to approve intra-state online gambling. Under the regulations, players must create an account through an Atlantic City casino (either over the Internet or in person), while strict responsible gambling measures will be introduced. Who is Applying? Some of the largest American casino operators have already created partnerships with leading offshore online gambling providers. Borgata, the state's largest casino by gaming revenue has come to an agreement with bwin.party, while Caesars Entertainment will be applying for a license together with 888.PokerStars is also being talked about as a potential player in New Jersey, but a recent court ruling may prevent it from handing in a valid application in time. However, the company is still hopeful of entering the market after CEO Mark Scheinberg last week reached a $50 million civil settlement with the US Department of Justice.
