| Article Title :: Baroness Elisa and Synergy to Perform in Balestrand Sognafjord
Sunday May 29th |
| |
|
Baroness Elisa (www.baronesselisa.com) is performing with
“Synergy” on the luxury Fred Olsen cruise liner Braemer in
Balestrand Sognafjord, Sunday May 29th. "Elegant, but not
stuffy" best describes the atmosphere on board Braemar which
came into service in 2001. At 19,089 tons and with 376
well-appointed cabins and suites, Braemar upholds the Fred Olsen
tradition of small-ship intimacy without compromising on
personal space. On board, the Baroness’ performance is small and
intimate before returning to the United States for a charitable
event in South Florida later this summer. Baroness Elisa defines
the best in cabaret theater and South Florida audiences are
invited support the leadin (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Record Collecting Still Thriving in the Twenty-first Century |
| |
|
It may surprise many to find that the hobby of record
collecting, long thought dead after the introduction of the
compact disc, is still alive and well. Granted, many music fans
have long replaced their records with CDs, but for many Baby
Boomers and Generation X-ers, the hobby of buying and collecting
record albums and singles continues to be a focal point in their
lives.
Records offer the tactile sense of a substantial
product, unlike the CD. The seven-inch, 45 RPM single often came
with a picture sleeve that has no equivalent among compact
discs. The nostalgia of records draws many back to their younger
days. And records still sound great. A recent check of the Bay
auction site showed 9 (read full article) |

| Article Title :: There's more to poker than Texas Holdem! |
| |
|
Texas holdem is taking over the world, but believe it or not
there are many other poker games you can play. Most of them fall
into one of three categories:
- Stud Games (for example 7 card stud) - Draw Games (for
example 5 card draw) - Shared Hand Games (for example Texas
Holdem)
There are also some other obscure games that don't fit into
these categories, some of the more popular of which are high/low
pig, bid poker and guts. In almost all types of poker game the
hand rankings are the same, with a very few minor exceptions
which have become more or less “home-made” rules.
Here are brief descriptions of some different poker games:

Roulette – American and European
As many casino-savvy players already know, there are two main
forms of online roulette. I plan on covering some of the
differences between the two versions of this popular casino game
and in doing so, helping you, the player, decide which game
suits you best.
The first version of online roulette I would like to discuss is
American Roulette. The American roulette wheel has the numbers
0, 00, and numbers from 1 to 36. Because of the extra number
present in American roulette, amateurs might be better advised
to stick to European roulette because of the slightly better
odds.
Secondly, we have European roulette (also known as French
roulette). As o (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Online Roulette - A Brief History |
| |
|
The term “Roulette” is French and in essence it means “small
wheel”. While it may seem that because “Roulette” is a French
word that the game itself comes from France, but this is not
necessarily true. There are a number of differing theories
ranging from the game originating in China, as well as ancient
Rome. Many who believe the game originated in China, think that
Dominican Monks that were trading with the Chinese brought the
game back to mainland Europe. The Roman theory is based on
accounts that Romans would tip their chariot wheels and spin
them as a form of entertainment.
A slightly more popular theory is that the French scientist
Blaise Pascal, credited with the probab (read full article) |

| Article Title :: The History of Roulette |
| |
|
The term "Roulette" is derived from a French word meaning small
wheel. The origin of Roulette is not very clear. while some
sources state that Blaise Pascal, a 17th Century French
mathematician invented the roulette wheel, other sources state
that the game originated in China and was brought to Europe by
Dominican monks who were trading with the Chinese.
During the late 18th century the Roulette wheel became very
popular when Prince Charles (ruler of Monaco at the time
introduced gambling to Monacco as a way of alleviating the
financial problems of the region.
However, the modern version of the Roulette wheel did not appear
until 1842 when Frenchmen Francois and Louis Blanc invented the

| Article Title :: The Fine Print Behind Online Gambling Bonus Offers |
| |
|
If you have never opened an account with an online casino, poker
room, or sports book you may be wondering if the bonus offers
are legitimate. We are all aware of the wisdom in the sayings,
“If an offer sounds too good to be true, it probably is” or
“There is no such thing as a free lunch”. So what’s the catch?
When a casino offers you $100-$1000 in free money should you
dismiss it, assuming that there are all sorts of strict
requirements, making it too difficult to achieve the pay-out?
The quick answer is no. These offers are for real and in most
cases the required terms and conditions to receive the pay-out
are typically quite easy to achieve. Some are as simple as
making small (read full article) |

Unlike many other more “social” casino games, video poker is
more of a solo game. There are quite a few varieties of
online video poker games that the VegasUSA online casino
offers, such as Jacks or Better, Aces & Faces, Deuces Wild and
Double Joker. Although there are quite a few different types of
games, they are all relatively similar in nature because of
their simple rules. This short article will deal with a few
variations of online video poker.
