Silver Dollar Casino Making Case for Online Tournaments
January 26, 2026p>
Slots tournaments have been embraced as worthwhile by most of the online casinos out there, but the fact remains that people looking for tournaments across other disciplines will still be left out in the cold by many online casinos.
Silver Dollar Casino a long time ago noticed the plight of these people and that is why they have gone out of their way to create an excellent online casino experience for the average person looking for online casino tournaments outside of slot machines.
One example of such a tournament would be the online roulette tournaments that Silver Dollar Casino offers. These are tournaments that are held every single week and run for the entire week. It works on the leader board format and as players begin to win or lose money over the course of that time, they end up in a much better position than many of their peers. The winners all get prizes according to a pretty standard tournament prize structure and since the buy-in is only $5, these players have a chance to win a lot with a small investment. The winner will actually collect 40% of the entire prize pool, so there is the opportunity there for you to really get a great return on your investment.
Another tournament offered by Silver Dollar Casino is the blackjack tournament. There is a head-to-head version of the tournament and then there is the standard blackjack tournament that is offered as well for people that like to compete against the larger groups. The entry fee for these tournaments is $10 and no matter how many people sign up the tournament comes with a guaranteed prize pool worth $5000. The pool could be worth more than that, but it will never be worth less.
Finally, Silver Dollar casino also has video poker tournaments to go along with their roulette and blackjack offerings. All of these tournaments will continue to run until the end of January and they may even go on beyond that time. Anyone interested should contact Silver Dollar Casino or just sign up for a new player account.
Traffic Spike on Mega Moolah Progressive Slot
January 17, 2026p>
Mega Moolah, as everyone knows, is the flagship progressive jackpot slot game at Microgaming online casinos. The game resets at $1 million, and it has paid over $6 million in a single hit in the past. Of late, it has been observed that the traffic at Mega Moolah has increased tremendously. In the past 5 days alone, the progressive jackpot amount has increased by over $60,000, hinting an increase of over $12,000 per day on an average. As of now, the progressive jackpot stands at $1.7 million. If the current increase in the traffic is to sustain, then in less than one month the jackpot will cross $2 million.
The increase in traffic is quite understandable, given the fact that the current value of the jackpot – at $1.7 million – is above the previous two hits of $1.2 million. Even though, the jackpot amount is still lesser than the average payout of $3.7 million, players are not patient enough to wait until the amount grows to that those levels.
Microgaming is quite sure about the popularity of Mega Moolah. This progressive slot was released as a standalone game in March 2026, but over the months a number of slots have been included in this network. The most attractive feature of these slots is the different themes on which the games are based upon. For example, if the first version was conceived on an African safari theme, Summertime was based on a beach holiday, and Isis based on the popular ancient Egyptian theme. Further, players who wager at any of these slots could win the same jackpot amount.
But the major draw of Mega Moolah is the four-tier jackpot. The progressive jackpot is hit in the bonus round, which is triggered randomly. In the bonus round, players spin a wheel of fortune, which comes to rest on one of the four colored bands. Each of the four bands represents one of the jackpots, meaning that players who reach up to this level could pocket one of the jackpots in any case. Further, higher is the jackpot level, the lesser will be the number of bands. On that scale, the largest jackpot level (Mega Progressive), has only 1 band out of a total of 20 bands.
Mega Moolah can be played at all Microgaming online casinos.
Boxing Themed Online Casino Slot Released
January 11, 2026p>
It appears as if Rival Gaming has stepped up its new online slot game releases. Not long ago, it released A Switch in Time i-slot, which was welcomed with open hands by players all around the globe. Now, they have come out with Heavyweight Gold, a boxing theme online slot game to enthrall boxing fans out there.
Players are welcomed with an introductory clip of a boxer getting ready for the bout, and then delivering the knock out punch in the ring to win the coveted belt. Excellent sound effects – of punches landing on the target and the bell ringing – compliment the said video clip, and give a precursor to what to expect as the game progresses. The game symbols all have a boxing flavor, such as the Boxer, the Referee, the Bell, the Prize Belt and the Bucket and Towel all feature on the reels, to name a few. Nifty animations depicting a boxer exercising with the Dumbbells and starts punching the Punching Bag, appears on the screen when these game symbols occur in winning combinations on the screen. The Gloves are expanding wild symbols, meaning when they appear, they expand to cover all the three rows and enhances the payout. The players could pocket heavy payouts if the expanding wilds appear in two rows on the reel.
Heavyweight Gold got two scatter symbols. First one, the Ring Girl, triggers free spins bonus round. Three Ring Girl symbols offer 10 free spins, four Ring Girl symbols offer 20 free spins and five Ring Girl symbols offer a whopping 100 free spins. All payouts are tripled during free spins. The other one is The Opponent, which triggers the Heavyweight Gold bonus round. If three or more Opponent symbols appear on the reels players are sent to the second screen. The bonus round stimulates a real boxing bout, complete with roaring crowds and referee counting, wherein the player controls the boxing action. That is, the player could make the boxer either attack the opponent or defend himself from being attacked. The match goes on until one is knocked out. The bonus credits are bestowed depending on boxer performance. After each bonus game the Opponent changes and the next bout is fought with a different opponent (typical of i-slot).
Heavyweight Gold is a 5 reel and 20 payline slot game from Rival Gaming, wherein the average payout % is about 96%. Players can wager up to 10 coins per line and the coin dimensions range from $0.01 to $0.10. However, the game does not have a progressive jackpot. But, this apparent drawback is compensated by its ‘heavyweight’ jackpots, which pays as much as 1000 coins when five Boxer symbols appear in an enabled payline.
English Harbour Casino Introduces January Tournament
January 9, 2026p>
English Harbour Casino has always been good for monthly tournaments on slot machines that its players love. January is no exception to that rule as even though the calendar year might have changed, the attitude of the casino to give money away to its players is still there.
Another thing that is still there is the weather. January may be the first month in a New Year, but the fact of the matter is that for many parts of the world it is still cold and snowing outside. In order to commemorate that fact, English Harbour Casino’s January slot machine tournament will be called Cool Winnings and will be played on their Winter Wonderland online video slot machine.
The English Harbour Casino Cool Winnings tournament is definitely one that slot machine fanatics should check out because it does have a guaranteed prize pool of $100,000 attached to it. In addition to that impressive guaranteed prize pool, Cool Winnings comes with a top prize of $50,000. For the player that is able to outlast all others, half of the prize pool is available. The runner up will also get an impressive prize amount of $20,000.
Of course, those heavy top prizes do come at the expense of prize money for players below them. In total, 275 prizes will be given out in this tournament that will run with a leader board all the way through to the end of January. The last 125 players on that list will each get prizes of $10, something that will only pay for their initial buy-in of the same amount. Any player making one of those spots with a rebuy that is also worth $10 will lose money even by cashing in this tournament.
Even though that is a true fact, many players will still be attracted to this tournament by the promise of winning that prize money. After all, winning $50,000 will be a great way to start off a 2026year that is still wintery, cold and miserable in many of the countries that are represented by players at English Harbour Casino.
