Free US Slot Tournaments

Online Vegas has started their Mother’s Day freeroll. I have to apologize because I thought that the freeroll this month for Online Vegas would be for Memorial Day (I still need to update my chart). However, this freeroll only started yesterday morning and you still have plenty of time to participate and possibly win!

You will have to hurray, though, because this isn’t a full week-long event. The end of this freeroll is 9:00PM ET on Friday night, May 13.

The prizes for this event are fairly regular now for the monthly freeroll. The winner of the event will receive $1,000; 2nd place – $460; 3rd place – $350; 4th place – $300; 5th place – $250; top 11 – $100+; top 20 – $50+; top 200 – $20+; top 500 – $7+; top 1000 – $5+

The prizes won for this free slot tournament are bonus prizes that need to be wagered 10x before you can cash the money out. That means in order to cash out this money, you must bet the bonus money on any slot machine. If you win $20, you have to bet $200 worth of wagers in order to be eligible to take the money out of the account. The “pay tournaments” offered at Online Vegas don’t have this stipulation as that prize money can be cashed out whenever.

These monthly freerolls used to somewhat manageable to do well in; but they have become extremely competitive over the past half year or so. There are already about 14,000 free entries that are playing.

You’ll find that at least 95% of these people bust out and don’t come back. Let’s say your goal was to get into the top 200 players (easily manageable) and win at least $20. You will probably only need to triple or quadruple your starting balance ($75) to achieve this. Of course if you lose it all trying to bet big and bust out, you won’t get much of anything for your efforts.

As I have said before, the best way to have a chance a really winning money that you can cash out of your casino account is by playing the real money slot tournaments. These have an entry fee and the prizes do not have bonus rules attached to them. That is why I don’t recommend rebuying in these tournaments.

I would recommend starting right away in the slot tournament and having a lot of time to dedicate to this. The Autospin function can be put to great use as there are parameters that can be set once you have a large enough bankroll. If you have $50 to blow to try and take one of the top spots, you can start making large bets right away and keep rebuying a couple of times when you bust out. When you eventually hit a large payline, you will rocket up the leaderboard (that’s how they get a really high score so fast).

These tournaments are all about getting your foot in the door and having the persistence and patience to watch you balance go up or down once you get past $1000 in your balance. That is about the tipping point that I have found playing in these tournaments most of the time. Get above that mark and you have room to maneuver. Get below that mark and you have to beware of busting out.

$25,000 Mother’s Day FreeRoll Tournament Info

Well enough babbling about strategies. The biggest strategy will always be luck. Hit free spins/bonus round/large payline with a big bet and you’re sitting pretty for a little bit.

The starting balance you will receive when you start this tournament is $75. You can rebuy when you balance goes below $35. You will receive an additional $250 in your balance if you rebuy. There is no limit to the amount that you can rebuy.

The featured game of this freeroll slot tournament is called Lucky Lady, which is a WWII aviation themed game. The Lucky Lady is the substitute and the icon will only appear on reels 2, 3 and 4. The scatter is a Star and does not trigger any special feature in this game. The other icons include an altimeter, a bomb, an airman’s hat and a post letter.

There is one special feature that can be triggered on this slot machine. It is triggered by the feature icon, a B-52 bomber. In order to trigger this feature, you must get three consecutive feature icons in a row just like you would have to with any of the other paylines.

As you can see here, you get to pick all five of the planes on the screen. The maximum amount that you will find is 100x the amount you bet on the spin. You can receive up to 3 bonus rounds in a row; but don’t count on seeing more than 1 round very often.

The Countdown to Easter Freeroll has already begun at Online Vegas. There are already more than 23,000 free entries. You may not think that you have much of a shot starting a couple of days late, but you would be surprised.

While it is true that only the top 11 places will receive $100 or more, the number of participants is deceiving. About 90-95% of all of the entries will bust out early and not come back. That means that you only need to be lucky enough to get yourself started on your bankroll in order to have a chance.

By now you should know the drill, but in case you are new to this site here is a look at how to sign up at Online Vegas for a freeroll. The tournament lobby has changed, but signing up is still the same. Take a look at the tournament lobby below:

Just click on the Free Rolls tab and select the only tournament in the list. Click the red Register button, click OK on the popup and then press the Enter button to start your tournament play.

I just started playing in this freeroll and found that with a little under $50 (the starting balance) that I am already in 900th place. That was without really trying. The first place prize of $1000 is falling out of reach really fast because one lucky player has more than 4 times the balance of any other competitor.

2nd through 10th place are still up for grabs for now, as no one has broken further away then a $20,000 balance. My personal best in any one of these competitions has been to get a balance of around $13,000. At the time, this was good enough to win 8th place overall and it would currently put me at 6th place in this tournament.

However, there is a large drop off in totals after the 9th place player. A score of $6,000 is good enough for 10th place right now and a chance at a $100 prize.

Funky Chicken

Funky Chicken is the slot game featured for this tournament. It is pretty straight forward with a Scarecrow substitute and a Funky Chicken scatter.

There is no bonus round in this particular slot; however, getting three of the Funky Chicken scatters will activate the free spin feature and will be rewarded with 15 free spins at the rate which you were betting when you won the free spins.

What happens if I bust out early?

Like usual, you will have a decision to make. You can either call it quits and wait for next month’s contest at Online Vegas, or you can rebuy for $4.99 and get an extra $250 in your balance.

Do I suggest that you rebuy back into this tournament? My short answer is not more than one time. If that even.

The freerolls are there to draw the casual slot players interest in slot tournaments. In this case, Online Vegas is selling the idea of the slot tournament to the players that sign up for the freeroll. That is why the prizes have all become bonus money prizes.

This isn’t a bad thing; the bonus money can be wagered in order to convert it into real money. So they are actually giving you a chance to win for free.

But if you would like a decent chance of winning real money instead of the bonus prizes, you should check out the $30,000 Guaranteed Weekend Madness slot tournaments.

$30,000 Guaranteed Weekend Madness

Each Friday at 10:30PM ET marks the start of this weekly slot tournament at Online Vegas. There is a guaranteed prize pool of $30,000 (real money) for each weekend tournament. The individual prizes vary based upon the number of entries into the tournament.

In order to play, you must buy-in for a $10 entry fee. This will start you out with $325 in starting credits. You will have until the next Monday at 11:30PM ET to post the highest score on the leaderboard.

If you aren’t just looking to have fun and want a real chance at winning money playing slot tournaments, I would suggest you give the Weekend Madness tournament a try.
