Popular modern advertising agency M&C Saatchi has performed completely new ad for Ladbrokes. The problem is the watchdogs from Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) has been already banned several advertisements made by M&C Saatchi on demand of Ladbrokes. Ladbrokes is one of the top companies united the wide group of online casinos and poker web sites, the aim of new ad is to bring some humor and at the same time do not leave the limits of ASA’s requirements.

But the advertising regulation of the gambling industry is the new field and it is still quite ambiguous. All the previous ads which have been banned are called exaggerating and demonstrate some risky behavior at casinos. A lot of other online casinos have been greatly surprised and even shocked by such decision, the fact of blocking the Ladbrokes ads has filled many people with indignation.

The latest ad uses the picture of the giant lemur in order to smooth the situation, but it still contains the basic idea of two previous advertisements.

Free casino games are available for the most part of the internet users. Formally you need to register at the site and indicate your age, but some of the online casinos providing free games don’t even demand to log on. The US representatives are sure that the internet casinos need age restrictions and should carefully check the age of the players. Many people think that the only thing we can do to decrease gambling addiction is to use some restrictions and limit the access of teenagers to online casinos.

The great part of internet casinos has special sections with free games and you can play them just for fun. In such a way the registration is rather simple, because you don’t need to give some personal or monetary information, often you are not asked for indicating your age. This happens because free games are considered to be less risky as the money aspect in not involved.

According to the recent survey the large part of teenagers under 17 regularly visit online casinos playing free games, they also have access to the slot games. In contrast to the rest of the players they only don’t get money for it. The same survey shows that the lottery popularity has came down by 80 percent. Online casinos look after the money games but don’t think much about free games control.

The problem is the following: children are taught to play games, internet casino games is the same thing until they are free. Some rules of online casinos working should be changed in order to appease the parents and influence on opening such web sites in USA.

When it comes to the online casino industry it seems the recession is over. Such an impression is made when someone hits a six figure jackpot, and it seems that it’s happening all the time. Nearly every day some casino announces a big win, and some of them are really big. Take, for example, the last week there were 3 huge wins in different internet casinos.

Bodog Poker has recently announced the win. Drew C. from Texas won $127,000 playing the Let ‘Em Ride poker. He broke the six figure mark, and in February Scott T. hit it at $97,287. And another big jackpot of $120,358 on Caribbean Stud Poker is waiting for its winner at Bodog Casino.

Then Win A Day online casino was pleased to be able to give a big check of $148,724 to Monica68. While playing their Slot-O-Matic slot machine she managed to hit it this January. But just recently another lucky player, 123jaki brought home $159,660. The player said she was absolutely shocked when she won, and she thought first it was a mistake.

At the end, Royal Vegas casino had the hugest hit yet. Jean E. won $345,665.

We have already written that several online gambling software providers such as Cryptologic, Playtech and Microgaming closed their doors for the US players. Real Time Gaming and Rival casinos continue taking bets from US citizens.

One more software developer that gets the lion’s share of North American traffic and constantly builds up a large progressive jackpot network is Vegas Technology (aka Odds On).

Just recently, a single player won one of the larger jackpot wins at a Vegas Technology casino. The jackpot of over $225,000 was hit on Easter Sunday. Many people question the gambling on Easter, but for the lucky American player who hit the jackpot, to play slots on Easter was the greatest decision she could have made. The lucky winner named Jackie broke Mega Money Mine slot machine that weekend. Mega Money Mine is a classic slot with 3 reels and 1 payline. The slot is based on gold mine theme so this player could really mine gold.

The player, whose screen name was DallasWorks, said in the interview that she was highly amazed, especially taking into consideration the size of her winnings. It is more frequent to see jackpots of $50,000 or $80,000 being won. The jackpots of more than $200,000 are less common - and to be the winner of such a big jackpot is almost unbelievable.

The jackpot was won on Vegas Technology progressive jackpot network, it means that several casinos contribute to the same online jackpot.

You can play Mega Money Mine slot in Vegas Technology casinos including Millionaire, English Harbour, Golden casino.

All players of Lucky18Casino have been watching the jackpot meters carefully. There are three largest progressive jackpots, two of which are over a million and one with about a million, and several smaller jackpots. A total jackpot pool is almost $4 million, which is the biggest progressive jackpot money US players can find anywhere online.

The largest jackpot is Jackpot Piñatas with over $1.2 Million at a moment. The slot was launched in November, 2007 with an initial prize of $250,000, and within several weeks the slot jackpot of $273,914 was hit but since then nobody has managed to win it again.

Two other games - Aztec Millions and Shopping Spree with current jackpots of $1.1 Million and $940,000 respectively have never been hit.

While these huge jackpots are still waiting to be won, some of jackpots have just made several players a little wealthier. It’s Good to Be Bad $1 slot paid over $151,000 in the beginning of April and It’s Good to Be Bad 25p have just paid $88,000.

Robert Goldman, CEO of Lucky 18, said “Who knows when we will have a big winner. That is up to Lady Luck herself”. He added that they are glad that they have such big jackpots and one of them is sure to be won soon! But the next jackpot that will be won is sooner to be Caribbean Stud or Light Speed.

These two jackpots must be won according to statistics. An average Caribbean Stud Poker jackpot is hit every 15. Now it is the thirtieth day since it was won last. An average Light Speed jackpot is won every 123 days. And almost a year has gone later since the day when the previous jackpot has been won.
