The €500 buy-in event, being held in Killarney from, Oct. 2 to 5, Killarney, had been extended to 750 after pre-registration for the event smashed the original target of 625.

Bryan Coleman, Irish Territory Manager for Ladbrokes said, “We are overwhelmed with the support this event has received from poker players, not just in Ireland but the UK and beyond, and it justifies our decision to promote a low buy-in guaranteed big-prize event staged in one of the most beautiful parts of the country.

“Players really have voted with their feet and the sell out main event is going to be truly memorable for those lucky enough to get their seats. Only 20 seats remain for the super satellite being held at the venue on Thursday October 2 and the clamour for these will create a fantastic buzz to kick off the Festival.”

The event is being filmed for documentary broadcast on Irish terrestrial TV station TG4 and for subsequent distribution to networks around the world. A web stream of the documentary will also be available on Ladbrokespoker.com.

The Ladbrokes Irish Poker Festival has attracted 750 of Europe’s leading poker aficionados to the Gleneagles INEC Hotel, Killarney. The Festival will also host a €300 no-limit hold’em freezeout supporting event on Saturday October 4 and a €170 no-limit freezeout game on Sunday October 5.

PRWEB – Responding to the increasing popularity of online casino games in Spain and Latin America, www.Slotland.com — the world’s most popular online slot machine and video poker site — has launched a Spanish online casino, http://Es.Slotland.com.

The new online casino offers Slotland.com’s unique games and renowned customer service — all in Spanish. A special Spanish-speaking Customer Service team has been trained to assist the many Spanish-speaking players that have been registering in Spain and Latin America.

According to a recent issue of the GPWA Times, 130,000 people in Spain alone gambled online in 2007, a 47% increase from 2006. They wagered a total of €650 million, 57% more than in 2006. A study by Munich-based research company, MECN, has shown that the Spanish online gambling market could grow to a €4.2 billion industry by the year 2010. It defined Spain as a key region for future growth, with overall gambling potential reaching €39 billion in 3 years.

“We have players all over the world – in the UK and Europe, in North America, in Australia. One thing they all have in common is they all like innovative new games like ours, they all like to have their winnings paid quickly, and they all need to trust any online company they deal with,” said Ondrej Tuma of Slotland. “Our Spanish players enjoy Es.Slotland.com because we’re always adding unique new games, we have an excellent Spanish-speaking customer support, and our progressive jackpots are very frequently hit for over $100,000!”

All of the slot machines and video poker games on Es.Slotland.com are tied to the same jackpot pool as the English site. Over the years, Slotland’s progressive jackpot has earned a reputation for being hit quite frequently – every six weeks or so – for over $100,000. The last winner won nearly $200,000 on a $2 spin.

To accommodate Spanish-speaking players worldwide, Es.Slotland.com players can deposit by credit card, Neteller, ewalletXpress or Moneybookers where they can conduct their transactions in the currency of their choice. Slotland has always had some Spanish-speaking customer service staff but has increased that team to serve the new Spanish site.

Slotland will celebrate the launch of their Spanish-language site in Barcelona, Spain at the CAP Euro conference. Media and affiliates are invited to toast the new venture at
Slotland’s exhibition stand today, Friday, September 26, at noon.

PRWEB – A bet365 bingo newcomer hit the big time this week when she scooped the £2,500 jackpot at bet365′s newly opened bingo room.

Fiona Falconer, from Penicuik, Midlothian started playing bingo at bet365′s online bingo room just one week earlier. On Monday night she decided to enter the Air Miles Bonus Jackpot game in the Jetsetter room. The buzz in the room was building as it always does before a big game and everyone wished each other luck as the game started. The caller announced the numbers one by one and Fiona felt her heart beating faster as the game progressed. She realised she was in with a chance of winning when she had only one number left and couldn’t believe her luck when, on the 38th number, she daubed the final number on her virtual bingo card and won the Jackpot.

Talking to one of bet365′s customer representatives after the win, Fiona was clearly still in disbelief that she had won:

“I felt shocked when I realised I had won the Jackpot,” she said, adding, “I’m not sure what I’m going to do with the money yet.”

Whatever she does with the money, bet365 wish Fiona well and hope she’ll continue enjoying her bingo at bet365′s fresh and exciting bingo room, which has experienced a big surge in popularity recently, partly due to its current “Bingo Heads” TV advertising campaign.

In addition to big Jackpot games and a fantastic Elton John Paris Trip competition, bet365 have bingo games to cater for all tastes. There is a free bingo hour from 8pm to 9pm from Monday to Thursday; there are penny bingo games every day as well as £100 guaranteed every day for just a 15p ticket. Bingo players also have the option to play on exciting side games too such as Deal or No Deal, Top Trumps and Bingo Roulette.

So why not sign up now at bet365? They are giving away £10 free to each new bingo player that signs up and you too could have the chance of hitting the Jackpot, just like Fiona did.

PRWEB – Jesper Hougaard, the 24 year old Danish poker professional sponsored by bet365, has entered the poker history books this week by becoming the first player to win a World Series of Poker bracelet on both sides of the Atlantic.

Hougaard won his first WSOP bracelet this summer in Las Vegas in the $1,500 No-Limit Hold’em tournament after defeating a huge field of 2,447. Here he dominated the final table to walk away with a cool $610,304.

This time round the action was at the European leg of the World Series of Poker in London, currently taking place at the Empire in Leicester Square. The event was the £1,500 No Limit Hold’em tournament where Hougaard started the final table in eighth place but managed to fight his way into a 5 to 1 chip advantage over his eventual heads-up opponent. After only five hands of heads-up play the Dane took the title, the gold bracelet and the £144,218 first prize.

As well as being the first time anyone has ever won a World Series of Poker event on both sides of the Atlantic, he is also only one of two players that have won multiple WSOP bracelets in 2008.

Hougaard joined bet365 earlier this year as their poker ambassador. He regularly plays in live tournaments around Europe as well as participating in fortnightly bounty tournaments and other activities on the bet365 site.

bet365 is one of the leading poker sites on the Internet and offer $20 million in guaranteed tournament prizes every month, as well as attractive sign up offer for new players and an excellent poker school and VIP programme.
