Players have 60 mins to turn their 1000 chips into largest chip stack for chance at $500 1st Prize

Thursday 5th August 2004

VIP Casino (www.vipcasino.com) is hosting its first ever blackjack tournament “Jacks in Town”, a multi-hand blackjack tournament that grants players 1,000 chips for a $10 buy-in. Players have 60 minutes to turn their 1,000 chips into the largest chip stack possible for a chance at the $500 1st Prize.

The tournament will run for the entire month of August, and is part of VIP manageress Kate Barkley’s drive to make VIP Casino the most engaging and interactive of all online gaming sites.

“VIP Casino players deserve to have a casino that goes the extra mile to entertain them and provide them with more of what they enjoy. Tournament play is just one of the features we are introducing to make sure VIP Casino remains the VIP players’ 1st choice,” said Kate. “Tournaments play a key role in my strategy to give more to players than any other casino online. We already offer a superior bonus scheme that offers 10% back on losses or a 1% bonus on winnings, and “Jacks in Town” adds the cherry on top,” she continued.

Tournament play is one of the most sought after extras online casinos offer. It gives players a chance to assume the character of a high roller without having to risk their own money. By providing players a large amount of chips for a nominal buy-in fee, tournament players can play more aggressively in tournament play than they could in normal cash play.

“Jacks in Town” is available to any player registered at VIP Casino. Players have a total of 60 minutes to accumulate their chip stack. The player that has amassed the most chips during his 60-minute period, determined at the end of August, is declared the winner. Players can battle the dealer for 60 minutes straight, or may choose to spread their time out over successive sessions. Second and third place prizes are also available and reward winners with $200 and $100 respectively.

“Tournaments aren’t just about the prize money, it’s a way for players to prove who really is the best of the best,” Kate adds.
