Earlier this month I began discussing the Holiday Feast online slots tournament series at VIP Slots online casino. This was a four part tournament series that would grant a select number of players entrance to VIP’s main tournament event next month.

Well, slots players, the holidays are almost over and the time for the January Showdown is almost nigh!

The Holiday Feast is in its final part and the top placing players will be the last ones to be ushered in to take a proverbial seat in the January Showdown. Part IV of the Holiday Feast began on the 26th and will be ending on New Year’s Eve. Interested online slots players can stay turn over their $5 entry fee to try to spin their way into the January Showdown.

And while top placing players in each part of the Holiday Feast only receive part of the pot for the part of the online slots tournament, it is the prize pool of the January Showdown that is the prize to have your eye one: $50,000.

And this $50,000 will not be parted out to top players; only the top placing player in the January Showdown will receive the whole $50,000.

At the time of this writing, with Part IV of the Holiday Feast still spinning out, there are 446 players that have made it into the January Showdown. Those 446 online slots players plus those that make it in from Part IV will have a starting tournament balance of $250 to spin the reels of California Gold.

For any tournament player whose tournament balance hits the rebuy threshold of $10, rebuys are available for $10. Each rebuy will give players another $250 to keep on playing with.

The January Showdown will run at VIP Slots and its sister online casino, Slots Galore, from January 3rd at 12 am until 11:59 pm on January 9th. The top placing online slots player will then be the recipient of the $50,000 prize. Remember that the only way into the January Showdown is through taking a place in the Holiday Feast, and the last part is already underway at VIP Slots.

It is less than two weeks until Christmas and the final tournaments and promotions at online casinos for the Christmas season are getting under way—not everyone was inclined to run a month long tournament series like VIP Slots did with their Holiday Feast. With so much happening, it took awhile for me to surface from looking for the most awesome slots tournaments!

Go Casino will be rolling out their Countdown to Christmas online slots tournament this Friday, December 17th. The leader board climbing will commence at 6 am on the 17th and will continue through 11:59 pm on Christmas Eve, with players spinning the reels of Winter Wonderland. And with the timely ending, some lucky slots players will be starting their Christmas Day with a share of the $250,000 prize pool:

VIP Slots is known for their flair in celebrating the seasons. And the Christmas season is no different. Beginning on December 5th, players can begin their quest to not only win some real money prizes, but to also try to earn their place in the January Showdown.

There are four parts to the Holiday Feast online slots tournament series, each one a week long. And each of the four parts gives a shot at a place in the January Showdown as the top two hundred (200) players from each part of the Holiday Feast will advance to the January Showdown.

Part I of the Holiday Feast is almost upon us. 12:01 am this coming Sunday is the beginning; and Part I will continue until 11:59 pm on Saturday, December 11th. Part II will commence at 12:01 am on December 12th.

In short, the Holiday Feast is happening all throughout December—not a day is going by in which players will not be spinning for their chance at the January Showdown.

To keep it interesting, VIP Slots has assigned a different online slots game from the Vegas Technology arsenal to each of the four parts of the Holiday Feast. Part I’s online slots game is Fat Cat, a five reel staring the beloved tubby rich cat.

Considering that the main purpose of the Holiday Feast is to snag a place in the January Showdown, players will be playing for percentages of the pot in each of the four Holiday Feast parts. So while fewer players per part will increase your chance of getting a place in January’s main event, it means a smaller real money prize now.

Part I of the Holiday Feast is mere days away and entry is only $5, which gives players a tournament balance of $500 for Part I. VIP Slots promises to be an exciting place during this month with holiday tournaments and players vying for places in the January Showdown.
