PartyCasino Cash Machine and Slot-tastic Sundays

Cash Machine

Claim your unlimited cash reward

Our brand–new PartyCasino.com promotion converts your PartyPoints into hard cash and it's programmed to pay out unlimited amounts of money to our players.

The Cash Machine runs from 00:00 ET on 9th November to 23:59 ET on 6th December. To get unlimited cash, just earn 10 or more PartyPoints on at least 10 days during the promotion. At the end of the promotion, we'll look at the PartyPoints you collected on your 10 highest–earning days, and give you $1 for every point earned on the lowest of those days.

How it works

If you earn the following points on your 10 highest points–earning days:

Three days at 100 points per day
Five days at 175 points per day
Two days at 150 points per day
Your lowest daily points total in this period is 100, which means we'll put a $100 cash reward directly into your Party Account.

Experience the power of the Cash Machine

You can opt in to the Cash Machine at any time. We'll use all the points you've earned since 9th November to calculate your prize at the end of the promotion.

Remember, every new day of the promotion gives you the chance to top your current lowest total and increase your cash prize. Keep playing to make sure you earn more.

You have 28 qualifying days, and your cash machine prize is only limited by the number of points you earn: if your lowest day's points total is 1,000 points, we'll give you $1,000. What you win is up to you.


Slot-tastic Sundays

We're giving away extra PartyPoints and great cash prizes on all our Gold Mega Jackpot slot games for two Sundays this November. Play on either 8th or 22nd November – or both - to reap your extra rewards.

You'll get 100% more PartyPoints when you play selected slots between 00.00 ET and 23.59 ET on a Slot-tastic Sunday*.

Plus, if you finish the day in the top 200 on our Slot-tastic Sunday leader board, we'll also give you a cash bonus of $25**. If you're a Palladium Lounge player we'll give you a cool cash bonus of between $100 to $1,500** for placing in the top 50 of the exclusive Slot-tastic Sunday Palladium Lounge leader board.

This month, you’ll need to play our Gold Mega Jackpot games to enjoy the benefits of Slot-tastic Sundays. Whether you want to join the Corleone family in The Godfather slot based on the cinematic classic, spin for huge prizes on Mega Fortune Wheel and Super Fortune Wheel or enjoy state-of-the-art big-money slot action with our Super Mystic, Super Star and Super Joker games, Sundays have never been more rewarding.

Virgin Casino New Release: Dungeons & Dragons: Crystal Caverns

Adventure & fortune awaits in Dungeons & Dragons: Crystal Caverns. Now with Tumbling Reels® plus free spins & a scatter feature.

Introduction

Lead your band of heroes on a bold adventure to the mythical Crystal Caverns. Legends describe huge, dazzling caverns containing glittering gems and jewels beyond compare. Defeat hordes of trolls, ogres and skeletons and reap the rewards of incredible treasure.

Play 20 lines of action and enjoy the unique wonder of the Tumbling Reels® feature. Reel symbols fall from the top of the screen instead of spinning. Winning symbol combinations disappear and new symbols tumble down to replace the vanished symbols. You can win again and again and again on the same play of the reels!

Gain entrance into the amazing Crystal Caverns by getting three Bonus symbols on a payline. Inside the caverns enjoy the Tumbling Treasures Bonus starting with 6 free spins. You can retrigger the Bonus multiple times, up to 300 total free spins! As you battle wave after wave of monsters, reap the rewards of the Monster Scatter feature. With this feature, experience more tumbles and bigger awards as all three of the super valuable monster symbols pay as scatter pays. With richer reels and more ways to win, you will want to go on this quest again and again.

Your adventure and fortune awaits in Dungeons & Dragons: Crystal Caverns.


How To Bet
Dungeons & Dragons: Crystal Caverns features 20 paylines. Bet 1-5 credits on each payline.

Click the 1 PER LINE button to bet 1 credit on all 20 paylines.
Click the 2 PER LINE button to bet 2 credits on all 20 paylines.
Click the 3 PER LINE button to bet 3 credits on all 20 paylines.
Click the 4 PER LINE button to bet 4 credits on all 20 paylines. Click the BET MAX button to bet the maximum, which is 5 credits on each payline.

If you have fewer than 100 credits, you can use the PER LINE bet buttons to bet in increments of 20 on all 20 paylines (20, 40, 60 and 80 credits) depending upon how many credits remain.

Click the PLAY button to spin the reels.


Tumbling Reels® Feature
All paytable-defined symbol combinations trigger the Tumbling Reels® feature during regular and Tumbling Treasures Bonus game play. All winning symbol combinations are evaluated and values are added to the credit meter.

All symbols in winning combinations disappear. All symbol positions on each reel are filled as symbols tumble from above, in sequence, to fill all empty spaces. The game screen is re-evaluated for symbols in winning combinations and values are added to the credit meter.

The Tumbling Reels® feature remains active until no winning symbol combinations are created as a result of the reels tumbling.


Tumbling Treasures Bonus
You can trigger the Tumbling Treasures Bonus by getting three Bonus symbols on a payline. Upon triggering the Bonus, you receive 6 free spins.

During the Tumbling Treasures Bonus, you can retrigger the Bonus multiple times. Your Tumbling Treasures Bonus continues until you have 0 spins remaining, or until you have played 300 free spins. To retrigger the Bonus, you need to get 3, 4 or 5 Bonus symbols anywhere on the Bonus reels. If you get 3 Bonus symbols, you have an equal chance to win an additional 2, 3 or 4 free spins. If you get 4 Bonus symbols, you have an equal chance to win an additional 4, 6, 8 or 10 free spins. If you get 5 Bonus symbols, you have an equal chance to win an additional 6, 8, 10, 12 or 15 free spins.

During the Tumbling Treasures Bonus, your bet per line in the bonus is equal to the bet per line on the reel spin that triggered the Bonus. In the Tumbling Treasures Bonus, the reels are much richer and there are more ways to win. With the Monster Scatter feature, you only need to get 3 or more of the same monster symbol anywhere on the reels to win! See the paytable for details.


Options
Clicking the OPTIONS button reveals a panel that allows you to customise your game experience.

You can customise the GRAPHICS QUALITY of the game. You may want to adjust the quality of the graphics to get the optimal animation performance on your computer. In BEST mode, the graphics look the best but performance may suffer. The HIGH (default) and MEDIUM settings lower the quality but increase the performance. In LOW mode, the graphics are degraded but the smoothest animation performance is achieved, even on slower computers.

You can customise the AUDIO settings of the game. The audio can be turned ON or OFF, depending on your preference.


Rules
Malfunction voids all pays and plays.

All line pay symbols must appear on a played line and on consecutive reels, beginning with the far left reel.

All payline wins occur on bet lines only.

Only highest winner paid on each payline.

Only one award paid per payline.

Line wins are multiplied by the total number of credits bet on the winning line.

Coinciding wins on different paylines are added. Scatter awards are independent from payline awards and are also added to the total amount paid.

Awards are shown in credits


Additional Information

The GAME CONSOLE provides information and access to additional features:
Your current balance in your chosen currency
Your total number of credits
The denomination in which the game is being played. This represents the value of each credit
The METER BAR on the bottom of the game screen displays the denomination in which the game is being played, the number of credits paid if a win occurred, and the number of credits bet on the last/current proposition.

Three sevens in a row followed by a real row after pokies payout - 23rd October 2009

PARIS: Two French friends have gone to court to settle a dispute over who should pocket almost €2 million ($3.5 million) in casino winnings - the woman who paid for the bet or the man who pushed the button on the poker machine.

On March 6, Marie-Helene Jarguel put €50 into the machine in the casino in Palavas-les-Flots, near Montpellier, south-western France. By her side was Francis Sune, 57, who had brought her luck in the past.

The aim was to win the casino's ''Megapot'' of €2.2 million by lining up three sevens. Mr Sune pressed the button 12 times without success, but on the next attempt the winning numbers appeared.

Screams of joy were followed by champagne all round and Miss Jarguel left the premises with the cheque. Casino rules state that machine bets must be taken by one person only.

But a week later, Mr Sune sued his ''friend'', insisting that at least half the gains were his by rights.

There is no judicial definition in France of what constitutes a ''winner'' in gambling.

Gibraltar, Malta.... Tasmania? - ABC - 8th October 2009

A few months ago in an Australian first, the Tasmanian Parliament passed legislation that eliminates tax for online or so-called corporate bookmakers.

The legislation was included in a law passed to sell the state owned TOTE (like a TAB) and attracted little attention until we began looking into it for the 7:30 Report.

Any corporate bookmaker who wants to set up in Tasmania will only have to pay an annual $256,000 licence fee.

And while you may not have heard of corporate bookmakers, plenty of other people have.

According to Racing NSW corporate bookmakers expect to turnover $5 billion this year.

The Tasmanian government says it wants to attract the online gaming dollar to bring jobs to the apple isle.

The famous Waterhouse clan are interested and looking at their options.

The state’s Treasurer, Michael Aird, says the state could potentially become a world-wide hub for corporate bookmakers.

Its tax rate will be amongst the lowest in the world, comparable to places like Gibraltar and Malta.

But is it fair and could Tasmania do better with its tax break? How will other industries feel about it?

Imagine what a boost it would be to a plumber or a hairdresser or any other business owner and you suddenly got a multi-million dollar tax holiday.

And does Tasmania really want to be known world-wide for favouring corporate bookies above other employers?

The island state has a history of pioneering gambling options and opening doors for gaming companies.

It was the first state in the country to allow a casino to operate - after a referendum the Casino at Sandy Bay opened its doors in 1973.

It also let controversial betting exchange Betfair into the country back in 2006 when no other state would touch them.

At the time Betfair was attacked by established betting operators (who it must be said, had a gold mine to protect) on the grounds that allowing someone to bet on a team losing could lead to race fixing.

Betfair says it is about seven or eight times cheaper than traditional TAB betting and is empowering the punter by letting them bet against each other.

The Tasmanian government also gave away the exclusive licence to operate the state’s poker machines to a company called Federal Hotels without putting it out to tender.

In return for agreeing to build a resort at Coles Bay on the state's East Coast the company got a lucrative 20-year monopoly.

In other states the licences fetch millions, even billions of dollars and the state opposition has been strongly critical of the deal.

The Liberal opposition does support the tax break for corporate bookmakers but it’s opposed by the Greens.

It’ll be interesting to see how things pan out over the next few years and whether bookmakers really do flock south.

The government has certainly given it a good crack and another chapter in Tasmania’s long history of gambling may be written. (Credit: ABC)
