Newcomers to online gaming may be able to take advantage of the rare no deposit bonus when they register. Not many online casinos offer this excellent incentive. For those looking for free instant play casinos no deposit bonuses should be a major encouragement.

With a no deposit bonus, the player does not make any upfront deposit to receive the cash bonus. This is a better offer than the more common alternative, a promise to provide an amount of bonus money based on the size of the players deposit.

An online casino will generally attach rules to the no deposit bonus. Players should understand the casinos regulations before signing up for membership.

If it seems like the World Poker Tour (WPT) has an event every week, it’s because it does.  At least this month.  During the first week of December, we had WPT Prague, won by Andrey Pateychuk.  This weekend, James Dempsey won the WPT Doyle Brunson Five Diamond World Poker Classic at the Bellagio in Las Vegas.  And now, on Tuesday, WPT Venice began with the first of two starting days at the Casino Di Venezia in Canoghera.  The field was very small for Day 1A with just 78 players paying the €3,000 + €300 to play.  Compare this to the 571 who played at WPT Prague and the 413 at WPT Five Diamond and it is an extremely weak turnout, even considering that there is still another starting day left with re-entry allowed.

Ending Day 1A as the chip leader is Andrea Dato with 217,300 chips.  With blinds and antes about to hit 500/1,000/100, his 58,300 chip advantage over the second place player, Steve O’Dwyer, is significant.  But even though just 29 players remain from Tuesday and it is unlikely that there will be scores more after Wednesday, this is still poker and no lead is safe.  Just look at the last two WPT final tables.

Dato has earned just shy of $300,000 on the live tournament circuit in his career.  Almost half of it was won this summer when he placed 3rd in the $1,500 No-Limit Hold’em Triple Chance event at the World Series of Poker for $138,044.  His next biggest score came just last month when he finished 5th in the Main Event of the Italian Poker Tour Campione II, winning $62,264.

It is odd that so few players showed up for WPT Venice, considering this same event fielded 523 runners last season.  Perhaps the fact that it followed so closely behind WPT Prague, WPT Five Diamond, and the European Poker Tour’s Prague stop made it an unfortunate victim of a mass break from poker by European players.  Or, perhaps everyone went to the wrong casino.  Laugh if youd like, but that actually happened.  Play started about an hour late on Tuesday because a number of players went to Casino Di Venezia CaVendramin rather than Casino Di Venezia in Canoghera.  We assume that there weren’t a couple hundred players at the wrong poker room who still didn’t make their way to the correct one, so while Day 1B’s typically have more registrants than Day 1A’s, the field still shouldn’t come anywhere close to what it was last year.

Day 1B of WPT Venice will begin at 1:00pm Wednesday. World Poker Tour Venice – En

The Off Shore Gaming Association (OSGA) is pleased to announce the winner of their 9th Annual College Bowl Challenge. JNoss beat out over 100 contestants to win the grand prize of $300. Had JNoss been an OSGA member, he would have cashed for 2X the prize amount, $600.

In its 9th year, the OSGA College Bowl Challenge again had contestants pick 32 College Bowl games against the spread. The spreads were set at half points to eliminate ties. The early Bowl games were worth 1 point but contestants still had a chance right up until the BCS Championship game – BCS Bowls were worth 2 points and the BCS Championship was worth five. I

There was no fairytale finish to 2011 for Luke Donald, but the world number one will leave Australia with fond memories from the JBWere Masters at Victoria Golf Club.

Starting the final day at five under and eight shots from the lead, Donald could only muster a one-over 73 in windy conditions on Sunday to finish the tournament in a tie for 12th place behind eventual winner Ian Poulter.

But Donald said: “I did enjoy it here and I am sure I will be back. I probably put this in my top-10 courses, architecturally and from a design stand point.

The year 2011 did not end well for 2010 WSOP Main Event winner Jonathan Duhamel. On December 21 his home in Longueuil, just outside of Montreal, was invaded by assailants. Duhamel was badly beaten and tied up. His WSOP bracelet, a high-end Rolex watch and an unspecified amount of cash were stolen.

Following tip offs from the public, two men and one woman were charged and a fourth man was arrested and questioned by the police. The men arrested were John Stephan Clark Lemay, Andre Perron and Anthony Bourque. However, the woman, who was the first to be arrested, was the most interesting person in the case. She was Duhamel’s ex-girlfriend, 20-year-old Bianca Rojas-Latraverse (in picture), who dated Duhamel a few months ago. S
