Beginner Players Score Big at Online Slots Tournament
If you think that in order to win in any online slots tournaments you need to be a professional player, well think again. Results of the recent All Slots Casino $100,000 slots tournament definitely prove otherwise. The Jackpot Factory’s recent press release reported that All Slots Casino handed out almost $80,000 in winnings to new players across the world, including a $50,000 grand prize jackpot to a beginner player from Norway.
This very lucky Norwegian, who went by the screen name of Per Magnus S, had only won a free ticket to the online casino tournament just the week before. He amazingly racked up over 71,000 points to take home the grand prize, and second place was just 2,000 points behind. That player, Sheila P, was awarded $10,000 in cash for her exploits on the one-armed bandits.
Taking home nearly 80% of the entire pot, the $100K All Slots tournament was similar to that of the first ever European World Series of Poker championship, where the average age of players at the final table was only 24 years old, and the winner, Annette Obrestad, being a mere 19 years of age. Not all of the winners at the All Slots tournament were young, but they certainly were new to the scene. David Brickman, the All Slots VP of Player Affairs, even said that it would not surprise him if the next $100K tournament was known as the “tournament of new players”.
When all was said and done, 300 cash prizes were given to the top online finishers. Over 1,780 players competed for the grand prize, which was record-breaking participation. All Slots Casino has not announced when the next $100K tournament will be, but is keeping their players busy with many other freebies, as seen on the tournament schedule page on their website.
