One of the Internet’s most popular online gaming sites, Go Casino has been running the Cherry Blossom slot tournament every weekend.

The guaranteed prize pool is a very healthy $50,000. This is separated into two areas; with the first $30,000 guaranteed in cash for the top ten place getters. The remainder is paid out in bonuses.

As Go Casino offers a huge variety of games, the bonus play can be used to play any of these. That means that 490 players are eligible for the balance of the kitty when the tournament ends on Tuesday.

The first prize winner will receive $15,000. The runner up will be well pleased with $5,000 while third placing receives $2,500. Fourth and fifth places will receive $1,900 and $1,400 respectively.

The Cherry Blossom game is a quality slots game that was released just over a year ago in October 2008. The game can be played with a starting credit of just 1c and up to a maximum of $10. It features bonus games as well as free spins on a 5 reel, 25 pay line game. Graphics are excellent and the oriental theme also includes a Japanese Geisha girl with the soothing background music of woodwind chimes.

Go Casino runs the tournament in conjunction with other sites owned by Hambledon NY. These include OnlineVegas.com and Golden Casino.

Each year the tournament is attracting more and more players who are advised to get in quick and register so as not to miss out on the big prizes.
