 Prize draws may come and go, but few promise no less than “the travel adventure of a lifetime.” Platinum Play and Vegas Palms, a pair of LCD’s favorite online casinos right about now, are offering quite the deal.
 Want something for the weekend? How about two things? Specifically, how about two bonuses from Sloto’Cash Casino? With the lazy days of August in full force, Sloto’Cash is offering a couple of swell offers for their loyal (and soon to be thankful) members.
 Some software companies introduce new games or even new casinos, but Microgaming is doing no less than introduce a new concept into the portfolio. The Microgamers call it “Level-Up Pokers.”
 Pantasia’s most recent promotion for its casino players is a simple draw for a couple of C-notes. Simple as pie, it just works like so: Go into the cashier, claim the “Exclusive 150% Contest promotion,” make your deposit of up to just $50 (cheap), and shazam! You’re in on the draw.
 Though PR touts Stash of the Titans as based in part on the 1981 flick Clash of the Titans, it’s mostly about the slightly less liberty-taking traditional figures of ancient Western myth, with symbols mostly all oddly happy and cash-centric. The satyr is laughing (OK, he’s probably often laughing) and despite the fact it would seem to have little cause to smile, what with his position as the underworld’s Doberman, tri-headed Cerberus wears three grins.
 The 5-reel 30-payline Galactic Gopher seeks to appeal to both the cute animal crowd and the high-concept space game devotees, with an end result graphically looking something like a science-fiction version of Spongebob Squarepants. The space-traveling Gopherus polyphemus inhabits a universe populated by bizarre aliens, a starwoman of whose company James T. Kirk might enjoy, and an alien antennaed A-K-Q-J-10-9 run. Key symbols are the starship SCATTER and the WILD title character.
 It’s the weekend – time for another top ten lucky devils list from VIP Slots, who doled out some serious cash before closing the books on July.
 Like just about every other Rival Software-carrying casino these days, Pantasia is getting buck wild about the release of Western Wildness. Here, it’s fifteen bucks of Wild to be exact.
 Attracting much buzz lately is seemingly suddenly superloose Lotsaloot, which has paid out a progressive jackpot five times in under a month.
 The folks at Sloto’Cash have announced a couple of promotions for your perusal. This weekend (between Friday 25 July and Monday 28 July, according to Sloto’PR), a 25% “extra slots bonus” is available on every deposit of $25 (approximately €16 / £12.50) up to $500 (approximately €319 / £251.20). A second offer has all players getting $25 free with each deposit of $35.

 VIP Slots has released its list of the week’s top winners and, damn, LCD’s having a bit of trouble disbelieving that numero uno victor’s total is a typo. Reportedly, one Curt N. took a crazy $180,469 on Evel Knievel (and that’s not even a progressive jackpot). Nice.
 It’s called – spectacularly enough – Blackjack Wednesdays; from now through 20 August, the 100,000th hand dealt every Wednesday at Bodog bags the holder a $250 bonus.
 And there it goes: That big burly Microgaming Poker Network Bad Beat Jackpot – good for an individual payout of exactly $86,475.23 (approximately €55,171.77 / £43,444.23) – was taken Tuesday night by an unnamed player. The winner of the hand took $43,237.61, while the four to five players also in on the big beat hand split another $43,237.61.
 Guess this is one appeal of hosting a game called “Scary Rich”: Lots of opportunity for wordplay within promos. To wit: Sloto’Cash callout this week that “It's Scary how rich you could be!”
 Our Irish pals over at Paddy Power are offering a simple £10 match bonus on sportsbook betting. Here’s how it works: Make a £10 bet, get £10 for another bet. That’s it. And so since there’s much space to be filled on your computer screen, please allow LCD to weigh in on a few props in the ever-increasingly misnamed “sports” betting section
 First up, LCD congrats to Marcia A., who took $60,000 from the ‘Ballroom on Triple Sevens; reportedly this marks Marcia’s tenth win on Casino Rewards group slots. (Yes, life ain’t fair.)
 July may be winding down, but VIP Slots’ regular tournaments go on and on. Two more of the increasingly oddly-named yet increasingly popular Weekender tournaments are to be held. Safari’ll be the game to play between 23-27 July (registration closes 22 July, 8pm EST).
 Maybe it was just too good to be true. Or maybe time travelers have been messing with the spacetime continuum and erased bits of the past from history itself. In any case, LCD feels more than a bit letdown at the possibility that “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure: The Slot” may have been just a cruel, cruel hoax.
 Talk about your drinking games. Bodog Casino’s exclusive bit of Real Time Gaming is all themed on what that great philosopher Homer Simpson once defined as “the cause of, and solution to, all of life’s problems”: Alcohol.
 Top of the tops were David P., who hit a sweet $104,000 on Safari, while Richard W. had nothing to complain about when tripping the X Marks the Spot reels for $97,000.
