Titan Poker Adds $1.5 Million to February Rake Race

Online gaming giant, Titan Poker, has announced the addition of $1.5 million in extra funds to their monthly promotions in order to provide some more incentive for players interested in their February Rake Race. The business plans to reward the highest placing players with some seriously impressive bonuses, adding even more to the already enticing rake rewards.

The iPoker network, home to their largest skin, Titan Poker, has been hosting an enormous rake promotion for the duration of the month and now the events are set to heat up even further. On top of the pre-existing $400,000 prize pool, Titan has increased the stakes with $1.5 million in bonus cash. The player who takes first place will receive $80,000 on top of the standard $20,000 prize with similarly fantastic bonuses in line for second and third place winners. Titan has extended rewards in certain brackets all the way down to the 800th best ranking rake contestant.

Poker fans of all levels are sure to flock to Titan to take part in the exciting events and serious players are bound to be drawn to the allure of the large amounts of prize money up for grabs. The decision to offer bonuses for the top 800 players should help to bring out the mid-stakes competitors and make for a lively promotion month for any poker fan.

Gala and Presidential Mum Win Big with Mrs Obama’s Game

Not to be outdone by the inauguration of her immensely famous relation, Kezia Obama, stepmother to the new American President, has launched her very own bingo site in conjunction with Gala Coral. “Mrs Obama’s Game” recently closed its doors after fundraising for charity through an offshoot of Gala Bingo’s main site, working well as an event that intended to capitalize on Barack Obama’s presidency in an immensely positive manner.

The promotion proved to be an excellent way to take advantage of Presidential fever and managed to succeed in raising a large amount of charity proceeds to the Sue Ryder Care foundation. After attending her stepson’s historic inauguration in Washington, Mrs. Obama was quick to return to her Berkshire, UK home and watch over the bingo events. An avid player and fan of the pastime, Kezia Obama partnered with Gala Coral to promote a series of games that allowed for 10p of every pound played to be donated to Sue Ryder Care.

The series was a massive success, raising approximately £10,000 over its one hour a day, ten day duration. Gala will match the amount for a total £20,000 donation to Sue Ryder Care and continues to work toward their goal of contributing £1 million to Sue Ryder by 2010. “Mrs Obama’s Game” ran from January 14th to the 23rd.

Ladbrokes Feels the February Love

Ladbrokes Bingo has emerged as the latest bingo site to unveil a Valentine’s Day themed take on monthly promotions. February at Ladbrokes Bingo promises to host a load of fantastic gaming and prize options for enthusiastic players and should ensure that regular fans feel a bit of love from their site of choice.

The first, and decidedly most impressive, promotion offered for February Ladbrokes Bingo players is the launch of daily free games throughout the entire month of February. These games will be offered at random intervals between 7pm and 10pm and allow any member to snatch up some no-cost tickets to take into the game. The last day of the promotion (the 28th) will run the free games for the last eligible hour (9-10pm). Ladbrokes has also set up a special, £2,500 bingo game on Valentine’s Day itself, available through a private room. Users can vie for entry to this event by playing at least £35 in any of Ladbrokes’ 90-Ball rooms before February 10th. The £2,500 game itself requires no additional payment to enter.

While almost all of the biggest bingo sites are planning some Valentine’s themed event or another, Ladbrokes Bingo may be hosting the most impressive options thus far. Regular bingo players orLadbrokes Bingo members should log on today to take a look at the variety of February promotions open for play.

Vic Reeves Ends Sponsorship of 888 Ladies

After a long history of acting as the celebrity face of 888 Ladies Bingo, Vic Reeves, has left the service. The popular bingo network is now without a famous representative and is in need of a replacement endorsement figure after the end of Reeves’ twelve-month 888 Ladies Bingo contract.

Fans of the site will be disappointed to see that Reeves has moved on from his previous place as the real-life mascot of 888 Ladies Bingo but many industry observers aren’t surprised. Most celebrity representatives have a short career with bingo companies, acting as mascots for only the brief period of time their contract affords. The site is still home to several other notable celebrities however and Reeves’ spot could very well be filled by ex-Eastenders star, Joe Swash who still maintains a significant presence at the network. While Vic Reeves provided a recognizable and humorous role as 888 Ladies Bingo advertising lynchpin, Swash has also acted as an important star for promotional events such as the recent Joe Swash Valentine’s Day competition that saw the celebrity share lunch with a lucky winner.

Reeves is not the only celebrity to vanish from their duties as the face of a bingo company. Foxy Bingo recently lost Jordan (Katie Price) around the same time that Sharon Osbourne left Gala behind. Alison Hammond at Crown Bingo now stands alone as one of the few celebrities still active at a promotional level for any of the major UK bingo services.

Big Bingo Promos at 888 Ladies Bingo

It’s a good time to be a member at 888 Ladies Bingo as the site continues to ramp up their promotions while maintaining their pre-existing, excellent incentives. To celebrate the continued commitment that 888 Ladies Bingo has shown its fans, here is a list of some of the more interesting (and profitable) events to look out for in the coming weeks and months.

Many of the site’s most popular recurring events are still in place for fans to check out even as 888 Ladies Bingo adds on other, extensive bonuses. Perhaps the biggest of these is the end-of-month, guaranteed £8,888 bingo jackpot (taking place this month on Friday, February 27th). Players can sign onto the network and play a quick game for the opportunity to win the massive payout or take part in the half-hour chat before the game play itself beings, talking to others as they prepare for the big event. 888 Ladies Bingo also provides nightly £100 games (with minimum 10p stakes) alongside Wednesday evening £1,000 guarantees for a buy-in of only 50p per entry ticket.

There are a plethora of other exciting games to watch out for at 888 Ladies Bingo with new ones being added to the service almost every day. It’s well worth the time necessary for UK bingo enthusiasts to check out 888 Ladies Bingo’s upcoming promotions for their own interest.

St. Alban’s Man Wins Big at Ladbrokes Bingo

While many are fretting about the continuing recession’s effect on their pocketbooks one St. Alban’s resident will be able to put his mind to rest after having won a massive prize from Ladbrokes Bingo.

The slots jackpot awarded to him had been accumulating for about nine months, waiting for a fortunate player to strike it rich with its cash reward.

The man, known to press as “Mr. H”, won big on a Ladbrokes Bingo slot machine after putting down a stake of only £3 for the enormous prize jackpot he ended up taking home. Mr. H played on the “Chain Reactions” slots at Ladbrokes Bingo, increasing his tiny bet into a decidedly more substantial payout of £109,467. Playing on a break during a typical work day, Mr. H was astounded to have won the prize in the same week that he was planning to celebrate his birthday.

According to Mr. H and his wife, the prize couldn’t have come at a better time. The couple has been feeling the effects of the dismal economy, having been made to cancel a ski vacation and watch their spending carefully. Now the jackpots have begun to build up again, providing enticement for any Ladbrokes Bingo hopefuls attempting to make their own success story out of a lucky game at the site.

Betfred Bingo Hosts Mother’s Day Promotion

Betfred Bingo is giving its users the chance to make this year’s Mother’s Day a truly memorable one with their upcoming promotion. The Mum of the Year 2009 Competition is almost about to launch from the site, providing bingo players with a community-centred chance at a great cash prize.

Players who have been active at the site before February 15th (and wagered at least £25) will be eligible for the 2009 Mother’s Day prize. Five qualifying Betfred Bingo members will be contacted via email regarding their entry into the special contest set to take be determined at the end of the month. Other users will then be able to view the contestants and vote on who they think most deserves the prize by participating in a process carried out in the community section of the site.

Betfred Bingo players will assess and vote on their favourite finalist through a chat room poll during the “free for all” bingo game hour on Friday, February 27th from 8 to 9pm. The member with the most votes will receive a £250 reward which will be deposited into their account upon the contest’s finish. Although Betfred Bingo’s Mum of the Year Competition takes place relatively far in advance of Mother’s Day actual March 22nd date this year, the contest should still help to spark a little excitement for bingo-playing families.

Gala Bingo Plans to Re-launch TV Channel

Gala TV, the television channel previously operated by Gala Bingo, is now set to re-launch due to the company’s appointment of a new production team. The previous group responsible for Gala TV, Endemol UK, has now been replaced by ETV Media Group, a business that plans to bring the channel back into the bingo limelight.

ETV Media Group has committed to the production of eight hours of daily programming with a brand new look and feel. While favourite segments and gaming events will be left intact, ETV has apparently spent a good deal of time “freshening up” the fare soon to be available through Gala Bingo. Top minds at ETV have assembled in order to liven up Gala’s television offerings, planning to increase user interactivity in order to promote the ease and excitement of TV bingo. Both companies hope to improve greatly on their last foray into televised gaming and have been hard at work ensuring that the re-launch captures the feel of a real bingo hall from the comfort of home.

New presenters have also been added to Gala Bingo TV to further increase the fresh feel of the channel. Gala Bingo and ETV have confirmed the future appearances of presenters including Anthony Heywood, Cat Porter and Kate Pullinger for their line-up. Gala Bingo TV will return within the next few months and is set to air on Sky and FreeSat along with free, online broadcasts at galabingo.com.
