Jackpot Disbursed at Online Casino
A spokesperson at the Virgin Casinos online gambling site has released a press
statement encouraging all long-time Virgin Casino gamblers to enter to win their
share of the progressive jackpot disbursement. Virgin announced that it was
closing down two of the site’s progressive jackpots and associated games- and
for some lucky players, the site will disburse the money that was sitting in the
jackpot in random drawings at the site.
The online casinos site is marketing the random drawings as a chance for all
players who actively gambled at Virgin prior to November 6, 2007 to win big just
for gambling at the Virgin site. Virgin took down two of the site’s popular
progressives, Bananarama and Winner Takes All on November 6, 2007, so this new
marketing promotion is to give back those monies to players who have previously
gambled at the online casinos site. The progressive jackpot was up to GBP 55,000
– so naturally those who register can win a portion of that jackpot.
Specifics of the contest are detailed on the online casinos site, and according
to contest rules, Virgin Casino is “giving away £11 000 a day for 5 days.
There'll be 173 winners every day for 5 days and a total of 865 cash prizes to
be won between 6th and the 10th January 2008.” And for the players that will win
one of the many cash prizes – what a way to start the New Year!
The site’s rationale for the method of disbursing the online progressive jackpot
monies – “there was money that hadn't been won in the jackpot pool, we figured
we should dish it out to all our players who had played before the 6th. It's
your money after all!" |
