Titan Poker, the largest poker room on the iPoker Network, now guarantees more than $16,000,000 in monthly online poker tournaments. This monumental increase reflects the growing status and success of the popular online poker room.
Titan Poker’s guaranteed prize pools are continuing to rise weekly, based on the rapidly growing number of players constantly drawn to the online poker room’s exciting promotions, thrilling tournaments and excellent customer service. Titan Poker recently captured Gambling Online Magazine’s Gold Award for providing the Best Online Poker Customer Service for the second year in a row.
Just five months ago, TitanPoker.com was guaranteeing less than half of what it now puts on the table in its round-the-clock tournament schedule.
“We are constantly seeking new ways to offer our players more chances to play and even bigger prizes to win,” a spokesman for Titan Poker shared. This probably accounts for the tremendous success that TitanPoker is experiencing and then passing on to its players by giving them even more varieties of poker play month to month.
Titan Poker regularly honors its players with seats at the world’s most well-known poker tournaments. Titan Poker’s qualifying players will deal in at the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas later this summer. This year, it is offering even more seats and opportunities to qualify for the WSOP. The new WSOP Executive Package will endow players with an opportunity to play poker in Vegas in royal style. Initiatives like this are certainly contributing to Titan Poker’s titan success.

Microgaming’s giant Mega Moolah progressive slot jackpot, which had reached a massive US$ 5 556 736, was hit by an unknown online gambler this week at the Casino Rewards group operation Blackjack Ballroom.com.
Blackjack Ballroom Casino, an eCOGRA certified casino, is a popular all-round casino, that supports 7 online blackjack varieties including multi-hand and bonus blackjack.
The win caps an impressive list of big wins at the group in recent weeks.
Although this latest jackpot does not eclipse the Internet record jackpot of US$ 5.9 million held by Cryptologic’s Millionaire’s Club progressive after a hit at Intercasino.com last year, it remains a very significant and certainly life-changing online windfall.
The first-ever Mega Moolah jackpot was achieved in mid-November last year, and paid out South African Rands 4.3 million - equal to about GBP 313 000 at the time.
A six figure win was also paid out this week by Bodog.com Jackpot Pinatas progressive, and at VIP Casino the trusty Rags to Riches progressive rewarded player Jemo with a US$ 131 250 jackpot for a $100 stake.

How about the secrets of the Don’t Pass Parlay?
Don’t betting is becoming more popular now, thanks to charting the tables and qualifying the shooters. A lot of bettors will start out on the pass line, but if a less than stellar shooter comes up to bat, many bettors will switch to the don’t side.
Wanna know how craps pros maximum their profits by using a don’t pass parlay?
Let’s find out now how they do it – and how you can do it too!
You will begin betting after a shooter has made two points in a row. Then, just make a don’t-pass bet for two units. If you win this bet, make another don’t-pass for four units. When you win this second bet, make another four unit don’t-pass along with a don’t-come bet for two units and take max odds. If these two are won, make another don’t-pass bet of four units, along with two don’t-come bets, both with maximum odds. When you win all three of these bets you are finished, and you need to wait for another two pass line wins to begin again.
Now, a lot can happen to the two or three bets you have on the layout, as you can win some and lose others. You must keep track of all of your bets. Three bets are pretty easy to track, once you get used to it, but you might want to start out with a pen and paper.
If you lose a don’t-pass bet, just go down one unit and bet again. So if you are at two units and lose, go down to one unit. If you are at four units and lose, go down to three units. In this system, you should never add odds to your don’t-pass bet.
You will be adding odds to the don’t-come bets only. If you have just one two unit don’t-come bet with no odds and lose it, go down to one unit. If you have two units with odds, remove the odds next time. Conversely when you win either your don’t-pass or don’t-come bets, go up one unit.
So if you have one four unit don’t-pass and two don’t-come bets with double odds and if you win the don’t-pass but lose both don’t comes, you would bet five units on the don’t-pass and two don’t-come bets (two units each) with no odds.
Your game is over when you win the entire series of one don’t-pass and two don’t-come bets, eventually with double odds.
Any loss (even the come-outs) counts as a loss and any win counts as a win. If you are on the don’t-pass and the shooter rolls a 2 or 3, it is a win, so you increase your next bet by one unit. If you are on the don’t-come and the shooter throws a seven, you lose and should decrease your next don’t-come bet.
If you lose two don’t-pass bets in a row you should start over because it means that the shooter won the pass line two times in a row.
Obviously you need to be mindful of the shooter. This method is used primarily as an alternative to the pass line when the shooter is obviously unqualified. If a new, qualified shooter gets the dice you should immediately get your bets back on the pass line. But when there are lots of successful don’t bettors at the table, playing in this manner could ensure a quick and easy profit on the dark side.

eWALLET FIRM DEPARTS U.S. POKER SCENE ePassporte calls it a day, citing US enforcement activity The California based e-wallet service ePassporte appears to be about to exit the United States online poker market, although as InfoPowa went to press Sunday this had not been confirmed by a general public statement from the company.
However, both Cake Poker and Full Tilt Poker have been advised by ePassporte management that “…a widespread investigation of Internet gambling, including poker” by the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Southern New York” is responsible for the decision, according to online media reports from Poker News.com.
Back in the day when Eliot Spitzer controlled the New York AG’s office it conducted a number of busts involving online gambling and ancillary services, such as the prosecution against Neteller.com’s founders which was eventually settled for well over $100 million. “Although we do not believe we have done anything illegal, we do not wish to be associated with anything that might be considered illegal by the United States Government,” a communication sent to poker operators by ePassporte on Friday is understood to have read.
A Cake Poker email to players advised: “We have received notice from ePassporte today that they are unable to continue to provide CakePoker with merchant e-wallet services. We have since confirmed that this situation is not unique to CakePoker and is, in fact, industry wide.”
Full Tilt Poker told its players: “We have recently been notified by ePassporte that they are no longer able to facilitate deposits or withdrawals between ePassporte and Full Tilt Poker player accounts.”
