During the festive season there are many large prize pool tournaments offered to online casino players and now that the Halloween events have ended the online casinos are getting prepared for their Thanksgiving offerings.

Thanksgiving falls on November 25th this year and Millionaire Casino is one of the first online casinos to announce an online slots tournament for this event.  The tournament is appropriately called The Big Turkey as it offers a guaranteed prize pool of $10,000 which will be shared between 800 players.  The top winners on the leader board will be thrilled with the large share of the prize that will be awarded to them.  The first prize is $50,000 and the second and third runners up will be awarded $10,000 and $5,000 respectively.

There is an entry fee of $10 for this online slots tournament for which players will be given a starting stack of $500.  Should any player’s balance fall to $10 during the period that they are wagering then an additional stack of $500 can be purchased for a $10 re-buy fee.  Players are able to re-buy up to 2,500 times in accordance with the tournament rules.

The online slot game designated for this online tournament is California Gold and although the theme of this slot game does not relate to the festival of Thanksgiving, it was selected by Millionaire Casino because it felt that wealth is something that we should all be thankful for.

California Gold offers loads of payout opportunities but these winnings only count for the leader board position and do not get added to players’ accounts.  Only the share of the prize pool is awarded to players if they win.

The wild symbol in California Gold offers 10,000 coins which is double the normal highest fixed jackpot.  There are 10 free spins with tripled payouts offered in the Free Games Feature while the Bonus Feature awards players with credits depending on the weight of nuggets that they collect.

The Big Turkey online tournament commenced on November 1 and will run until December 1.  The tournament is bound to be very popular as Thanksgiving is predominantly an American festival and Millionaire Casino has a large number of American clients.
