VIPCasino.com, the popular online casino aimed at experienced players, is offering over 180 games for gamblers to try out in 2007.

More recent additions to the extensive existing collection include a selection of nine lines slots, featuring the latest game in the Marvel slots series – the Silver Surfer.

Other nine line additions include one based on the power of fabled Nordic god Thor, which allows for ten free spins instead of the five found on games such as Blade.

An increased number of 20 lines slots have also been made available in recent months, with games ranging from the exotic Eastern Dragon to the potentially lucrative Rags to Riches.

However, with all such games having been played by in-the-know players for a good part of 2006, many will be queuing up to await the new line of games set for 2007. Software provider CryptoLogic has already revealed its intentions to expand further this year, meaning that gamblers are unlikely to have long to wait.

Super Fun 21, a great online game from VIP Casino, is a variant of the popular cardgame blackjack.

Played with a single deck of 52 cards, the aim of the game is to beat the dealer’s hand by getting as close as possible to 21 without going bust.

Cards are shuffled after each hand is played, all face cards are valued at ten, the cards from two to ten are valued as indicated and aces can be valued at either one or eleven. The value of a hand is the sum of the values of the individual cards.

Two cards are dealt to the player face up and the dealer receives one card face up and one face down. Players opt to Hit, Stand, Split (up to two times three hands max), Double Down, Surrender or Insurance, if the dealer’s up card is an ace.

Player blackjack always wins and pays one to one and player blackjack in diamonds pays two to one. Player hands of 20 or less, consisting of six cards, except after doubling, pay one to one, while a player hand of 21, consisting of five cards or more, except after doubling, pays two to one.

Chips are stacked at the bottom of the screen by denomination and Super Fun 21 players start by placing a bet on the table. The game has a $2 minimum initial ante, a bet maximum of $1,000 and a $1 Bonus Side-bet fixed bet.

One choice that VIP’s high rollers continue to play again and again is the hugely popular European Roulette.

The game follows standard European Roulette rules however there are a few subtle differences in game play that really make this version stand out from the crowd.

As is customary, players participate by trying to correctly predict the slot in which the small ball falls after a spin on the 37-numbered slot round wheel.

Customers stack their bets depending on the chip denomination with the options being $1, $5, $25, $100 or $500. Standard betting limits are a minimum of $25 and a maximum of $2,500.

Other neat game features includes the history of the previous winning numbers displayed in a table above the game menu while each winning bet is marked by a “W” on the chip stack after the spin.

VIP Casino European Roulette also has an interesting modification whereby bets on red, black, odd, even, high and low will have a “½” chip placed on them if a zero is rolled – this means more favorable odds to the player than in standard rules.

George Clooney, former star of ER, is intending for some of the profits from his new casino venture to help the poor in Africa.

The Hollywood star is involved in a project to build a new hotel and casino in Las Vegas, Nevada but is keen for it not to be a purely moneymaking operation.

Speaking on Larry King Live, Clooney said: “I’m taking 25 per cent and giving it to Africa.”

The new Las Ramblas development will boast an opulent $3 billion casino, hotel and condominium development, with 11 towers, interiors by Philippe Starck and a smart dress code, all in the style of Vegas back in its Rat Pack heyday.

With smart dress required to enter Las Ramblas, Clooney anticipates that the casino will rival the more laid-back options – such as nearby Sin City.

He added that the smart dress code relates back to his late aunt Rosemary Clooney who used to dress up to sing as a Las Vegas casino.
