    You get some free Chips to start, but seems the 1st rewards (t-shirt and Hotel Room apartment) are given as soon as you enter the space, sounds like you can unlock room upgrades as well like Midway.

    It was only a matter of time before someone else took that model and made another space. Not quite sure how I feel about it.

    There are three ways to obtain a VIP Top Hat:

    - Purchase a package of 40,000 chips and VIP access. This package also gives you a VIP Top hat.
    - Purchase a VIP hat by itself, giving you access to the VIP area.
    - Earn 100,000 total earnings, which also unlocks a VIP Top Hat.h

    Stop the speculation now Jo... Let's not get the pitch forks and torches out. Wait and see what the space has to offer when it's released before gathering an angry mob.

    "You’ll get to experience an awesome card playing experience with hundreds of thousands of players worldwide!"

    I suppose "worldwide" means it's region free? :wacko: ::p:

    Well well ...

    ... just read the announcement of Digital Leisure's casino. A few thoughts (ESPECIALLY about poker, since that's my "bag"):

    1. Seems like Digital Leisure IS affording the chance for people who don't want to pay, to play. NIce gesture on their part.

    2. Over 100 rewards: seems that Home reward hunters COULD spend weeks if not months here, given that most of the games are chance.

    NOW ... on to poker:

    3. Also appears that Digital Leisure has provided the venue for poker players who have wanted a "tournament-mode". I DON'T have good feelings about that.

    a) Back in the EA days, people would hold off entering a game UNTIL there were enough for a full table. And what was worse, those same people would verbally abuse those who started a game with fewer than a full table.

    I'll say now what I said back then: some of us just want to play. We don't care how many are there -- and we don't care about payouts. Yes we could go to Sportswalk ... but those of us who want to play without the thought of full tables and payouts care about rewards too.

    b. While I DON'T know how Digital Leisure has implemented Tournament mode in Poker, I HOPE their system will RANDOMLY assign players to tables. At the Black Tables at EA Poker, the games were rife with teams of chip dumpers. That made the game really unpalatable. I hope Digital Leisure has found a way to deal with that. It'd be a shame for DL to see their poker degenerate.

    4. FINALLY: speaking for myself, I have NO problems spending REAL $$$ for phony casino chips, or for VIP access. Conversely, kudos to Digital Leisure for providing Home users a way to gain access EITHER with $$$ OR with free play.

    More tomorrow when I actually experience the Casino!

    This looks like it could be fun. I'm also wondering it it's pay to play.

    On the blog they responded saying it uses a token system like Midway. I am willing to pay as long as tokens are cheap.
