It seems that online poker has changed, at least at one poker site – Americas Cardroom. Its Weekends promotion promises to be a great success, as hundreds of die-hard poker fans are joining the tables for the promotion of $500,000 series.
The Liberty Weekends, that kicked off on March 31, will offer online poker tournaments giving away half a million dollars in prize pools. The promotion will continue for five weekends. The inaugural event saw 140 players registering for the tournament. This event featured $10,000 Guaranteed prize. Because of the overwhelming response, its prize pool raised to $13,400.
On April 1, the $50,000 Guaranteed saw 178 players and the game ended with giving away $11,250 in prize. Looking at the growing player crowd at the promotions, Cardroom has decided to extend its poker time of Sunday tournaments by one hour. So, the No Limit Hold’em tournaments will see their way through 1900 hours ET. The $50,000 Guaranteed will give away 1000 points in April’s $60,000 Points Race. The $10,000 online poker tournaments, which will see through 2100 hours ET on weekends, will give away 200 points in this month’s $60,000 Points Race.
The high point of Liberty Weekends will be on April 15 in the $250,000 Guaranteed tournament at 1900 hours ET. The day marks the Black Friday anniversary, which the poker world is eagerly looking forward to. Online players can grab their seats without delay by buying in directly or via a satellite. This Guaranteed poker tournament will give away 7500 points in $60,000 Points Race.
Before that, on April 13, Americas Cardroom will hold a Super Satellite with 250 seats for the Liberty Quarter Million. Players entering this satellite can collect 1000 points for this month’s Points Race.

Whereas the poker rooms see a huge rush for Liberty Weekends luck, here is something for casino players. Sky Vegas is offering a whopping GBP 500,000 jackpot in the casino game Chests of Plenty.
Chests of Plenty is a vibrant and easy-to-play online game, enjoying extreme popularity among regular players. The game features five reels, 20 pay-lines, and has a pirate theme.
