We have been doing a load of work over the last couple of days to make it easier for you to keep on top of updates to the site.

First up is our RSS feed which publishes a link and summary of every article we publish to the site. You can subscribe to our feed using any modern browser or even a dedicated RSS feed reader.

We've been waiting and watching and waiting some more as Microgaming's Mega-Moolah jackpot increased steadily over the past few months. Well the good news is that it has finally been won at the very tidy sum of over $5.5 million, but the bad news is of course that you or I didn't win it!

Just a quick update to let you know that we have added an online casino tournaments page where you can keep track of current and upcoming casino tournaments. Casino tournaments can be a good way of having a fun time without risking much of your bankroll. Most cost around $10 or less to enter, and some are even free.

We're proud to announce that we've recently enhanced the site to cater for multiple languages. And our first "translation" if you will, is for our friends in the USA. The US Government's stance against online gambling has seen the options for players from the USA diminish somewhat. With this new system in place we're able to serve up a tailored version of the site specifically for visitors from the USA, making it easier for you to find a good place to play.

William Hill casino recently switched to a unique bonus scheme which they call the "unlimted new player bonus" and "unlimited monthly bonus". The bonus is determined solely by the amount you wager. It is a tiered scheme where you are paid a certain amount each time your wagerings pass a predetermined threshold. For example, once you wager £500 on their monthly bonus you earn a bonus of £25, then when your wagerings pass £5000, you earn another £25, making £50 in total.

BetDirect Casino offers a monthly reward of £25 after you have wagered £1250 (50xB). Blackjack and Video Poker are allowed and are the safest choices to complete the reward. Now the great thing about BetDirect's Microgaming software is that it allows autoplay for blackjack, and the strategy it uses is a great one to follow.

I recently took my bankroll boosting quest over to Intercasino. Online since 1997, Intercasino is one of the most well known and respected online gaming brands in the world today. It has won a litany of awards in the ten years it has operated, and is generally regarded as one of the premier online casinos.

Casino on Net (aka 888.com), established in 1997, is one of the longest running and most respected online casinos in the world. They offer a 100% bonus on deposits of up to $200, and require a modest 20xB worth of wagering before you may withdraw.

Well after a cracking start to my quest to over-inflate my bankroll (I've gone from $100 to over $1400 after just 3 casinos), my next stop was Bet365 online casino. Bet365 uses Playtech software, the same casino software that Golden Palace uses, so the games are quick and playing through the bonus does not take long.

Next on my list of casino bonuses to boost my bankroll is Victor Chandler Casino. Similar to last week's Bankroll Boost casino Ladbrokes, Victor Chandler's online casino is just one part of a well known UK bookmaker's online presence. With a successful brick-and-mortar business backing the online casino, you can be sure it isn't a fly-by-night operation.
