It is often said that loyalty is a thing of the past, but if this is the case, it must be the consumer who is missing out.
Over at InterCasino, regular players have the opportunity to receive money for nothing – as each individual is automatically enrolled into the site’’s Cashback Club.
Every time you play a slot or another online game, loyalty points are allocated, meaning hefty bonuses lie in wait for regular players.
Points are totted up at the end of the month, and if the magical number of 5,000 is reached, a cash reward comes sailing into your account.
Each game offers a different number of InterCasino Points – for instance slots have a three-point value and poker offers one point. The more you amass, the more you are credited, at £1 per 100 points.
The best thing is, if you don”t manage to qualify for a bonus every 30 days, your points balance rolls over into the next month.
As if we needed any more encouragement…

If you needed any further evidence that poker is increasingly big business, then look no further than HeadsUp Entertainment’’s new Poker Super Cruise.
As if a trip to the beautiful Caribbean isn”t enough in itself, the media firm has teamed up with CI Travel to host a week-long competition onboard the famous Freedom of the Seas vessel.
This isn”t necessarily a novel idea in itself – for years sailors have crowded round a pack of cards to while away the long weeks and months at sea.
However, rarely have the stakes been quite so high, or the setting so luxurious.
Sanctioned by the Canadian Poker Tour, the event – scheduled for between April 25th and May 2nd 2010 – will see a range of tournaments staged, including a CAD $2700 (£1,500) Main Event.
Poker pros, top amateurs and celebrities are all expected to take time out for this voyage of discovery, which looks like a win-win situation for all.
Even an early exit from competition offers the opportunity to disembark on a secluded beach in the Bahamas, Netherlands Antilles or US Virgin islands.
And if you do stay in the contention right until the very end, a chest of treasures awaits – just keep an eye out for any pirates.

While the silver screen doesn”t always present the most accurate image of the casino, it is always a great film setting in terms of drama and suspense .
Reports this week indicate that Daniel Craig will reprise his role as James Bond next year – and this is great news for anyone with a love for glitz, glamour, snazzy tuxedos and huge poker hands.
In his first two outings – Casino Royale and The Quantum of Solace – Craig has proved himself to be up to task in shoot-outs, car chases and of course on the poker table.
Seeing 007 strut his stuff with the high-rollers in Vegas or Monte Carlo may be slightly out of touch with the ordinary punter’’s experience, but it’’s highly entertaining if not necessarily enlightening.
In a similar vein, seeing George Clooney, Brad Pitt and co sythe down the Nevada casino giants in Ocean’’s Eleven is the stuff of complete fantasy – the real world is a lot different and usually there aren”t millions at stake.
Maybe a couple of times in a career you may come across the enormous hands Hollywood tells us are regular occurrences, and for our own wellbeing, this might just be for the best.
Box office poker may have its charms, but there’’s something quite reassuring about playing the real-world odds, winning some hands and losing a few others.
The last thing you need is a Bond villain sat opposite, holding five or more aces.

Once upon a time, those wishing to play roulette, blackjack or slots would have no option other than to traipse out to their local casino in the cold, wind and rain.
Then, as times changed, they simply needed to roll off the sofa and head across the living room floor to their computer for their fix.
But progress didn”t end there, it would seem. According to Online Casino King, a growing number of players are now playing casino games directly on their mobile phones.
As reported in the Daily Express, the firm says such games are now widely being played in this way, allowing greater flexibility and mobility than ever before.
"The world of online casino gaming has taken yet another step forward in its bid for domination of the entertainment sector," the firm says.
"A large number of popular games can be played through mobile phones, and many of these are the casino games that are most regularly played on the internet and in land based casinos."
So the casino industry continues to evolve. But is this latest development a stage too far?
Mobiles may be well-suited for shorter games, but those who love the high-stakes poker marathons had better keep their phone chargers in their pockets.
