Ladbrokes Casino Ad

Monday, May 11th, 2009

I’m not sure if you’ve seen it already, although you probably have. I’m talking about the new Ladbrokes Casino advert of course.

Ladbrokes launched the latest version of their thrill seeking ad range around three weeks ago, and although not quite as tongue in cheek as some of the others its got great reviews.

In the advert a giant Lemur plays the popular kids game ‘hide and seek’ with residents in a city. The lead character runs around trying desperately to find a place to hid before the Lemur shouts “98 – 99 – 100 coming ready or not”

At first you wonder what the lead is trying to hide from, and with other residents hiding around the vicinity, the opening scene looks like something out of a zombie film.

But then you it cuts to the Lemur jumping off a building and looking for the hiders. Finally he catches the Lead who’s in a large dustbin, and the ad ends with the Lemur running away while the lead starts counting.

The slogan at the end is if you looking for thrills go to Ladbrokes Casino where you get £25 free.

Its quite clever when you think about it and is definitely an advert that gets your full attention.

Casino Club Review

Tuesday, April 14th, 2009

One online casino site that was recent caught my eye has been, Casino Club.

The reason being unlike Intercasino or 32 Red casino, it doesn’t really have a console game feel to it.

Instead the site is very stylish it looks like the kind of casino James Bond would play at if he played at online casinos. You feel like you are spending money simply by visiting the site.

However the welcome bonus soon stops you from wanting to close the site down.

A huge €650 is on offer to all new players, at a 100% sign up bonus. Fortunately you don’t have to hand over €650 in one go. The offer lasts for a year. With new players able to get 100% match on deposits each month, for 11 months.

What attracted me the most to the site though is the size of the Jackpots. Now while they aren’t on the traditional casino games like blackjack and roulette. The Jackpots on the side games, will soon convert you. Jackpots range from €40,000 to more than €1million.

Its a site I would highly recommend you try!

Tuesday, August 12th, 2008

Caesars Palace casino is going ahead with its expansion plans. The $1 Billion project will continue even though several construction projects have been forced to close due to the economic downturn. The project is being funded by the Harrah ’s entertainment group. The companies profits were in fact down from the last years quarter but the decision has been made to continue to the construction of the new casino.

Steven Wieczynski, gaming analyst for Stifel Nicolaus Capital Markets said,“Overall, the company indicated that the demand environment is tough, and they were not willing to estimate when the market would trough”.

Harrah’s Chief Executive Officer Gary Loveman said, “The first half of the year presented us with the most turbulent economic conditions the casino industry has faced in years. Customer visitation fell in the second quarter as consumers coped with higher fuel costs, declining asset values, the impact of widespread flooding in the Midwest and other financial challenges.”

Rising fuel prices along with the cutting back of consumer spending has resulted in a shard decrease in Vegas casino profits.

Masion Casino Review

Thursday, July 10th, 2008

Masion Casino is a stylish, posh online casino for those who want to play casino games on a well structured, high quality site.

Masion offers players a range games including from roulette, slots and video poker. I love Masion casino as the site isn’t full of tacky ads trying to get more money of their players. When using their software you get a real sense of premium online gaming. The software is free to download and the Jackpot prize amounts for games are very high. There are over 100 games to play ranging from traditional casino games to new modern themed games. The download software is easy to use and users can adjust the speed of game play.

Masion offer several really good promotions including up to a $200 welcome bonuses. Once signed up players can also enter a lottery with the chance to win $100. I really enjoy Masion however there site is old fashioned and some of the games can be a bit boring. They need to spice up their site a bit with some new games and create an online community. Masion needs to differentiate them selves from other sites and maybe should try incorporating live poker and bingo games into their site. I think they are to one dimensional.

Let me know what you think of Masion casino by leaving a comment below and make sure you visit us again soon at UK casino Review.
