You could be a millionaire with Ladbrokes casino

admin — Sun, 13 Jun 2010 11:45:21 +0000

How many times have you been watching the TV quiz show “Who wants to be a Millionaire” and you know the answers? If you fancy yourself as a bit of a know it all Ladbrokes casino is the place for you where you can play “Millionaire” for real. Casino Ladbrokes offers you the chance to answer questions on a variety of subjects and reach the top prize of 20 times your stake. This is a bit unusual for an online casino as there is no gambling involved, simply general knowledge. The game starts at Ladbrokes online casino with the fastest finger round but instead of choosing a candidate to play, how fast you get the right answer determines how many life lines you receive. The lifelines are played in exactly the same way as in the TV show. Each question at Ladbrokes Millionaire has four possible answers and you have 20 seconds in which to choose an answer or use a lifeline. This is not much time but then Ladbrokes casino has to ensure that you do not have time to look up the answer or there would be little point. We tried it out using a group of people but casino Ladbrokes has set the time so tightly that any disagreement between players makes it difficult to answer in time. As you win more points the questions become increasingly difficult; we have not yet reached the million point question but then we are not that clever. On the Millionaire theme although quite a different game is scratchcard millionaire also available at Ladbrokes casino Ireland; all this requires you to do is match three symbols from eleven so no questions no knowledge required jus a lot of luck. Ladbrokes casino online offers all you might expect from an online casino and a good deal more, log on, register and play at Ladbrokes casino for great fun.

Ladbrokes release Thunderstruck II

admin — Thu, 13 May 2010 06:30:38 +0000

Ladbrokes casino have launched their new slot Thunderstruck 2 as we reported last week and right now as an introductory offer you can get 10 free spins thrown in. The characters are based on Norse mythology and the music is pretty good. The name Thunderstruck has some relevance to the top bonus round which is called “Thor” who was of course God of Thunder. This really is some slot game with 5 reels and 243 ways to win a massive jackpot of 2,400,000 coins. Of course there are the usual wins for three, four or five alike symbols the biggest of which is 5 Thunderstruck symbols which pays 1000 coins; Thunderstruck symbols are not only wild but double the win and there is a “Wildstorm” feature that is completely random and can turn up to 5 reels wild but the real money comes when you enter the “Great Hall of Spins” which is achieved by getting 3,4 or 5 “Bonus” symbols. There are 4 different levels of the Great Hall of Spins the first of which is “Valkyrie” (in mythology the females who decided who would die in battle) in which you receive 10 free spins and all wins are multiplied by 5 and you can retrigger the free spins. The fifth time you enter the Great Hall you will be in the “Loki”( the gods assistant who sometimes causes them problems) Bonus round where you receive 15 free spins and watch out for “wild magic” on reel three; if you are lucky enough to keep entering the hall, on the 10^th time you will be in the “Odin”(chief God and ruler of Asgard) bonus round which gives you 20 free spins and “wild raven” features that can multiply your wins by up to 6 times. Finally, on entering the hall for the 15^th time you will be in the big money Thor bonus round giving you 25 free spins and makes the “Rolling Reels™” available which can give consecutive wins and up to 5 times the win. This is where the real money lies. Give it a go at Ladbrokes casino.

Two new offerings from Ladbrokes Casino

admin — Tue, 27 Apr 2010 06:11:42 +0000

Ladbrokes have a couple of new offerings at their online casino that might be worth checking out; firstly there is “Live Slingshot Roulette”. This is a regular roulette game but the numbers are not selected by a Random Number Generator but by an actual spin of the wheel which is being filmed at a studio. There is a countdown to each spin of the wheel accompanied by green, yellow and red lights; once the red light is on betting is closed. The winning number is detected by lasers and corresponding payouts made. It is live in the sense that you are betting on something that is happening at that time but there are no croupiers involved. If you don’t trust RNG s then this might be for you. In the slots category of the online casino, following the success of Thunderstruck, Ladbrokes have announced that they are bringing out Thunderstruck II starting on May 6^th. This a 5 reel game with 243 ways to win and has reputedly some pretty good digital sound effects. This video slot has it all with Wilds and Expanding Wilds, four different Bonuses, Scatter action, 4 different Free Spins rewards, Multipliers ranging from 2x to 6x and absorbing free games, all of which can see wins increased very quickly. Improved screen resolution and a great jackpot make this something to look forward to. May 6^th looks like being an exciting day especially for our UK customers. We shall do our best to check out Thunderstruck II to see if it lives up to expectation.

Ladbrokes signs deal with Canal+

admin — Sun, 11 Apr 2010 09:09:13 +0000

Following the passing of new legislation in France we did not think it would be too long before we saw activity from the major bookmakers but Ladbrokes have certainly been quick off the mark by announcing a joint venture with French pay TV broadcaster Canal+ to create an online betting service. The joint venture will bring together Ladbrokes expertise in the online casino and betting industry and 12.5 million customers of Canal+ but is of course still subject to approval by the regulators. Legislation passed only last week allows companies to apply for a 5 year license to operate online services for horse racing, poker and other types of sports betting. Only last month Ladbrokes appointed a new Chief Executive in Richard Glynn and the company badly needs to expand its presence in Europe being present only in Spain and Belgium at the moment. Ladbrokes and Canal+ will certainly not have it all their own way as both Bwin and Paddy Power are already present and the French lottery operator Française des Jeux has signed a deal with TF1 the French broadcaster who incidentally has the broadcasting rights for the World Cup. The deal prevents Ladbrokes from operating any other online gaming business for the duration of the agreement and also allows TF1 to get out after the 5 years by selling its 50% share to Ladbrokes. It is hoped to have the company up and running before the World Cup

Ladbrokes are giving away €50 absolutely free.

admin — Thu, 08 Apr 2010 06:58:26 +0000

Back in October last year we alerted our customers to an attractive offer from Ladbrokes as they were offering new customers €25 for free. This was not a usual matching bonus for first deposits, this really was for free and we warned that the offer might not last long; well it didn’t but guess what? The offer is back and now it is €50, absolutely free, no deposit required!! All you have to do is register, add your e-mail address and a user name and click the claim now button, it couldn’t be simpler. If you are an existing Ladbrokes customer but new to the casino you are still eligible. To prevent players registering and then cashing out immediately there is a play through requirement of 25 times or €1250 and as usual not all games count 100% towards the play through but hey, playing with somebody else’s money has got to be good. The offer ends on April 12^th so don’t hang around, register now.

Ladbrokes was recently voted casino operator of the year at the 2010 Gaming awards by 25 judges from around the industry basing their judgment on criteria such as the quality and range of games and level of customer service. Natalie Coles, head of Ladbrokes Casino said “We’re really proud to receive this award. We have a fantastic team at Ladbrokes and this is a great recognition of all the hard work they have done. 2009 was a great year for us and we believe 2010 will be even better, it has certainly started the right way” If you need any more reasons for registering now look at the “Mega Moolah” jackpot which now stands at more than €2.5 million, that will do nicely thank you.

Ladbrokes announce profits down 28%

admin — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 08:09:54 +0000

The bookmaker always wins in the long run but Ladbrokes would like to have done better as it reported profit for the year down some 28% from £265.6 million to £191.3 million on revenues down to £983.7 million from £1.05 billion. The company blamed a run of poor football results in which there were fewer draws than usual and which favoured the gambler (meaning we think fewer surprises) but went on to say that its cost cutting measures were starting to produce results. Since the turn of the year the poor weather has also caused the cancellation of many horse racing meetings in Britain and Ireland as well as football matches all of which affects revenues. Ladbrokes is forecasting a difficult year ahead as concern grows about employment security amongst customers but hopes that the World Cup in the summer will boost earnings. The company which recently had a surprise rights issue which raised £286 million to reduce debt and had Chief Executive Chris Bell announce his resignation after 20 years with the firm has introduced a pay freeze and reduced staff hours to control costs but still hopes to open another 15 shops this year and employ the necessary staff so signals are a little mixed. There was no specific mention of which way they expect online gambling to go but other bookmakers seem to think it is on the increase.

Deal or No Deal at Ladbrokes

admin — Sun, 07 Feb 2010 08:38:49 +0000

Deal or No Deal, the ever popular TV game has been going for several years and continues to grab the imagination of many people but now you too can take part by logging onto Ladbrokes and you will find it under the “games” banner. The game is very similar to the TV version except there are 26 boxes instead of 22 and the maximum prize depends upon your initial stake. To play the game first select your stake and then select your box. Having done this you can also place side bets as to what you think your box will contain. These bets can be placed at the beginning of every round but the odds will reduce the further you progress into the game. In the first round you must select 6 boxes whose contents will be revealed after which the banker will make an offer for your box which you either accept(deal) or not (no deal). If you decline the offer and move to round 2 you must select a further 5 boxes and another offer is made. Round 3 is the same but in rounds 4 and 5 you only need select 4 boxes to be opened. If you reach round 6 without accepting an offer you have the choice your box with the one remaining. Eventually the chosen box is opened and your winnings are revealed. You have the choice of accepting the offer after every round which puts you in the position of going for it all, cutting your losses, or maybe even settling for a small profit. As in the TV game it is down to you.

As a unique twist on the TV game there is a jackpot round. If at the end of the game a “Jackpot” token appears in your box you will go on to play the jackpot game. In this game there are 5 tokens hidden in the 26 boxes. You are allowed to open 5 boxes and the more tokens you can find the bigger your prize; if you find all 5 you win the progressive jackpot which could be a “life changing sum” as the programme says. A bit of fun and certainly recreating the gamble factor; give it a go at Ladbrokes.

Big winner and New Games at Ladbrokes.

Ladbrokes have recently introduced three new video slots into the range including the well known comic hero Hell Boy. Hell Boy is a 5 reel, 20 line slot with the normal range of winnings for getting 3,4 or 5 of a symbol paying out from 5/10/80 credits up to 100/1000/10000 credits for the “Hell Boy” but the “Hell Boy” symbol itself not only substitutes for other symbols but also doubles the win. If you have two Hell Boy symbols in the winning line then the win is quadrupled. The real money however comes, as you might expect from Hell Boy, with the symbol of his right hand. Two of these anywhere will produce a win of twice your total stake (not the stake per line); three means 4 times; four means 25 times and finally 5 right hands will pay out a massive 500 times you total stake on the spin and that could be a lot of cash. There is also a super mode which is generated randomly in which you have three wild symbols which are held for the duration of 10 free spins during which time anything might happen.

Another new game is Arctic Fortune in which it is said there are no winning lines but 1024 ways to win which is a bit of a strange way to interpret the game. As all ways to win run from right to left it merely means all possible combinations are covered. There are 5 reels and 4 visible lines, therefore if a symbol appears on reel 1 and anywhere on reel 2 and anywhere on reel 3 you have a winning combination. As there are 5 reels you have 4×4x 4×4x4 =1024 possible combinations. It could be termed as a 1024 winning line game but the difference is that you are not staking each line; simply one stake for all combinations. The play is similar to other slots with “scatters and “wilds” but it is different having so many ways to win for a single stake of between €1 and €50.

Apart from new games punters are still winning on Ladbrokes “Cashapillar” slot with a guy from the UK picking up £47000 on the game which he says will buy him a new car and help with a holiday. We think he might have something left over after that unless he wants a Ferrari. You could be next so give it a go at Ladbrokes Download Casino.
