Ha, score again. I recently wrote about the difference between slots tournaments at land based casinos in Las Vegas and online casinos that I play at. One big difference was price. The fees for slots tournaments in Las Vegas can run fifty to five hundred dollars while online casinos run under twenty dollars and often sponsor free tournaments. Well, that was for slots, which tend to get a lot of play at casinos. Of course poker also has its free roll tournaments which are extremely popular. But it’s not always easy to find tournaments for some casino games, much less free ones. In fact, a blackjack playing friend just mentioned the other day that she’d like to find a blackjack tournament.
Well, I’ve discovered one for her so I’m going to pass the information along to any blackjack players out there. VIP Casino is offer free roulette and blackjack tournaments this month. The first half of March is devoted to the free roulette tournament while the second half will be dedicated to a free blackjack tournament.
Here’s how to take advantage of the offer. First you’ll need to sign up for an account at VIP Casino and chose to Play for Real. Although VIP Casino offers free games, those won’t work for the tournament itself. Once you’ve signed in to play, go the More Games section in their menu and select the free tournament you want to play in. You’ll be entered and given $500 to play with in the tournament. For each tournament, the playing time is limited to 10 minutes and you want to achieve the highest balance possible during that time. Don’t worry about conserving the money because that $500 is just for tournament play. Also, you can quit at any time during your ten minutes, but keep in mind that the player with the highest balance wins. The first place prize for the games is $400 with $200 going to second place. Players who manage to score in the third through twenty-second position will win $20.
