Treasure Nile Makes Weekend Start Great

January 17, 2010

It is always great to see a weekend start with a jackpot win, no matter the size of the jackpot or what game it was with.  There is something exciting about knowing someone just won a bit of cash.  Treasure Nile gave one lucky online player the chance they were hoping for when they went online early Saturday morning.

Treasure Nile is part of Microgaming.  Microgaming is one of the top three online casino software companies.  While they do not have any casinos in the US, they have numerous options for UK players.  UK online casino players are never out of a chance to win money with Microgaming.  Micrograming offers some top notch graphics with their games, as well as some wonderful themes.

The slot machine which paid out on Saturday morning, the Treasure Nile, is all about Egypt.  You will find Pharaohs, Egyptian dogs, snakes, urns, and many other symbols that call Egypt to your mind.  What is most surprising about the Treasure Nile is that this is the second time in two days for it to pay out at online casinos.  This has made it one of the more popular games at online casinos.

This Nile game paid out $44, 710 to the Saturday player.  It may not be a million dollars, but it is a great payout.  There are many things this player can do with the online casino winnings.  The lucky player had to play at least $4.50 in order to win the jackpot. It is a .50 cent slot machine with nine lines.  The maximum nine lines have to be played for the top prize in the jackpot.  The player did earn the progressive jackpot.

The progressive jackpot is usually $50,000 and can reach $100,000 very quickly.  With the fact that the game was recently hit by another online player the game did not have a chance to recover.  The largest jackpot ever won on the Treasure Nile was $149, 075.  It’s almost enough to buy a small house.  The weekend is definitely going full swing now with several online players.

Go Casino is even offering a free slot tournament for new players.  So, there is definitely money to be made at online casinos this weekend.  For those who want to sign up at a new online casino there are definitely options around, otherwise there are loyalty tournaments as well at online casinos.
