The latest Casino.com Flash game powered by Playtech is Frankie’s Fantastic 7. This awesome online game brings the excitement of having a flutter on the horses to the casino and features one of horse racing’s most famous jockeys in the slender shape of Frankie Dettori!

The object of Frankie’s Fantastic 7 is to predict the winner of a seven-horse race. There are different odds for each of the horses (just as in real-life horse racing), and these are worked out by how many squares a particular horse has to travel to get to the finish line.

So what are these squares all about? Well, once the race has begun, each horse is dealt a card from two complete decks each containing a Joker. The game is played until a horse reaches the winning post. Whenever a horse gets the highest card in a round, it will advance by one square. A horse receiving a Joker will fall before the finish and cannot compete again until the next race. And of course, if two horses receive the same high card, they will both advance one square at the same time.

Bets are completed at the start of each race and can be placed on as many horses as you like, or you can choose to cover three particular horses at even odds. Each of the central three horses, Lochangel, Fujiyama Crest and Fatefully (yes, they’ve all got names!), have the highest odds of 13/1 as they have to cover six squares in order to get to the finish line. The two horses that only have to cover four squares have lower odds of 2.4/1, and so on.

So, you can experience the thrill of betting on the horses with Frankie’s Fantastic 7 today and you could also be walking away with a whole load of winnings if you can find a good betting system. Play Frankie’s Fantastic 7 now by selecting Instant Play at Casino.com!

To celebrate the beginning of the new football season, we’re kicking off today with a spotlight on one of our classic online slots at Casino.com. Top Trumps World Football Stars features a host of great players from the last few years, including Wayne Rooney, Lionel Messi, David Beckham, Kaká and Ronaldo. What’s more, you can pick two of your favourite teams to go head-to-head, with paylines operating from left-to-right for the home side, and right-to-left for the away, giving you many more opportunities to slip through the defence, round the keeper and slot home a blistering winner!

Powered by Playtech, Top Trumps World Football Stars is a five-reel, 15-line slot with all the thrills, action and atmosphere of a live game in 100,000-seater stadium. The trophy prize on offer here is the chance of landing five wild symbols, which will net you a whopping 10,000x your line bet! Even more chances of winning big are on offer, too, as every team has two star players of which five-of-a-kind will score you 5,000x your line bet.

There are bonus rounds galore, too, including the fantastic pass the ball feature. Here, if a soccer ball lands on reels two or four, directly next to a player (on reel one for team one and reel five for team two), then he will dazzle the opposition by deftly knocking the ball around his teammates (on the other reels) before the last man will shoot to score you 3x your line bet for each completed pass.

Both teams also have their own FREE games symbol. If these come up on reels one and five, you get 12 FREE games with only that team on the field – significantly increasing your chances of silverware.

And going into extra time, there’s also the chance to double or double half your winnings up to a massive $5,000 with the gamble feature! So don’t pass up the opportunity to play this fantastic slot game – you could be scoring big cash prizes today at Casino.com!

We’ve got our mind on our money with the latest Playtech game to feature at Casino.com: a five-reel, 15-line slot called Mr Cashback.

Not to be confused with asking for money to be taken off your card and given back to you in notes at the supermarket, Mr Cashback actually hands over the wonga in a highly novel way – by actually paying you when you don’t win! Each of the 15 paylines registers the number of spins that don’t produce a win, with the current number depicted within the coloured wheels found at the right- and left-hand sides of the screen. So, if a particular line hasn’t paid out within 50 spins – and you’ll know about it because the coloured wheels will start flashing bright red – you’ll automatically get 50x your line bet in cold, hard legal tender. Now that’s what we call cashback!

In addition to the main Mr Cashback bonus feature, there are an abundance of other ways to maximise your money. For starters, getting three or more Mr Cashback wild symbols on any of the reels will net you up to a massive 7,500x your line bet! You can also choose to gamble any of your winning lines and double your money all the way up to $5,000!

What’s more, landing three or more Mr Cashback scatter symbols on any of the reels earns you 12 FREE games with a 2x multiplier, plus up to 100x your line bet. And that’s not all… Throughout the FREE games, freezing wilds will appear randomly, which will then remain in position for up to four spins, enabling you to really rack up the reserves.

Well, what are you waiting for? With the Mr Cashback bonus feature, you actually get rewarded for not winning, so start playing our fantastic online slot game at Casino.com today!

One of the newest games from Playtech that’s really whipping us into a racing frenzy is Frankie Dettori’s Magic Seven, a five-reel, 25-payline slot that’s available for you to play right now at Casino.com.

Of course, this slot game features plenty of Frankie features, including video playback of some of the Italian jockey’s most famous races. The real winner, however, has to be the chance of bringing up five Frankie Dettori wild symbols across the reels, which will see you romping home with a whopping 7,777x your total line bet!

There are also two awesome bonus rounds where you can race your way to some huge wins very quickly indeed…

For starters, there’s the Magic Seven Bonus symbol. If you land two of these on reels one and five, you’ll enter the related bonus round. Here, you have to pick spots around the racetrack to reveal cash prizes and up to 7x multipliers. What’s more, with certain spots, you’ll unveil the aforementioned footage of Frankie Dettori in action.

Secondly, if you get three or more Frankie Dettori Magic Seven scatter symbols you’ll enter a three-horse Free Games Race. Pick the horse you most like the look of and if it comes in ahead of the other riders, you’ll earn 35 FREE games! It goes without saying that this is where the serious prize money can be found.

Last but not least, you can choose to gamble your winning line bets by simply picking a high card from a choice of four. Beat the dealer’s choice and you can easily double your money again and again.

So, if you want to enjoy the thrill of a day at the races or if you fancy yourself as a thoroughbred casino player, you’ll absolutely love Frankie Dettori’s Magic Seven slot game. You can play this and our other online games today at Casino.com!

An online casino is loaded with jargon, but once you know the buzz words, you’ll soon be using them yourself!

What’s a reload bonus?

It’s simply additional credit deposited by us into your casino account when you make a deposit. That means more funds to play with, more gaming time and more potential winnings.

For example, a “25% reload bonus, up to $200” – this means that when you deposit an amount up to $200, you’ll get 25% on top directly from us. The 25% is based on the figure that you have deposited (eg, depositing $200 actually gets you $250 to play with!) There are normally set minimum and maximum deposit amounts upon which we can fork out. In this case, it’s a maximum of $200.

Apart from showing goodwill from us, reload bonuses keep online gaming fun and exciting. Why? Because the reload bonuses you collect with each deposit allow you to play more and hopefully win more over time.

Being stranded at the airport was not all bad for one passenger trying to make his way home recently. Michel V was stuck at Amsterdam Airport when he won a massive £54,022 playing online at casino.com.

Michel, a 28-year-old Dutch student with heavy student loans, was on holiday with four friends when the volcano erupted in Iceland, making it impossible for him to return to London. While waiting for news, he and his friends were set up in one of the many terminals that were transformed into massive dormitories. With free internet as compensation for the stranded passengers, Michel went straight online and played slots to pass the time. Little did he know, he’d soon be winning very, very big!

Michel decided to use his huge winnings to hire a private boat out of Amsterdam for himself, four friends and three other lucky passengers. When asked about his casino winning, Michel commented, “There wasn’t much to do at the airport except eat or use the internet, so most people were killing time watching movies or going on Facebook. I’m just glad I wasn’t one of those guys!”

It just goes to show you can win a fortune at the casino, wherever you are! Take a look for yourself on our winners page.
