My favourite bingo blogs and sites

Posted on 28-06-2007 | Posted in Bingo by Gambling Diva

Hi again, Been having a look around the world wide web at other bingo blogs and sites there are some really good ones out there that have loads of bingo offers and advice. This is of my favourites online bingo sites which seems to give loads of info on the best bingo sites out there, infact it seems that they have every bingo site on the net listed on theirs, there are also comprehensive reviews and a great directory. There are lots of other bingo blogs out there but some of them only talk about the offers from one site so I don’t really believe that they are independent. It seems that Whichbingo.com has a .co.uk sister online bingo site which is equally good with a full listing of all UK bingo sites, user reviews and free to enter competitions. Anyway if you know of any other good sites let me know! if not I’ll just try and collect it all and post it up on Gambling Diva and then you can check out this site for everything that you need to know.

I have just been told about another really good bingo site, Unlucky for Some. I’d say quite lucky for some too, if you manage to find this jewel of a site. From what I can see this online bingo site gives users great reviews on the top bingo sites, offers and bonuses out there on the net. There is also lots of bingo news, tips and advice so if you’re new to bingo have a good read and find out where the best, most fun and safest places to play are! I like this one!

Its wet, its windy…its Wimbledon!!!

Posted on 25-06-2007 | Posted in General by Gambling Diva

So its raining outisde like its never going to stop, more rain is forecast and no balls have been hit on the sourts at SW19. It must be June, it must be Wimbledon Tennis Championships 2007.

I dont think I can remember a Wimbledon fortnight where it hasn’t rained. Although some would say this just adds to the Wimbledon experience!!

So who is going to win this year. Maria Sharapova and Roger Federer are hotly tipped to walk away with the Championship trophies this year.  They are probably right. Federer is desperate to match Bjorn Borgs 5 successive Championship titles and Sharapova is eager to reclaim her 2004 title. She is back in the best physical shape ever and Roger is on top form this season - they would seem to be undefeatable.

Standing in Maria Sharapovas way is Justine Henin-Hardenne who has been runner up twice and is keen to shift that stigma. Last years champion, Amelie Mauresmo who has been ranked number 3 will be keen to defend her title and Martina Hingis is back on form and hoping to do some damage.

In the mens, not many stand in Federers way of dominating this tournament. It will probably be a Nadal - Federer finale, although I for one would love to see Andy Roddick scoop the trophey and the title.

My dream winners would be Roddick and Hingis - I have always liked Hingis and think she gets a hard time in the press - no one likes a winner do they?!!

I am gutted Andy Murray couldn’t play this year, I am not puttin much stock on old Tiger Tim. At least when we expect less we can be pleasantly surprised when/if he wins anything, but I am not betting on it thats for sure.

My head money is on Federer and Sharapova, my heart money is on Roddick and Hingis….see you in 2 weeks!!

Is poker a waste of money? I think not!!

Posted on 22-06-2007 | Posted in General by Gambling Diva

People say that playing poker online is a waste of time and money - I for one completely disagree with this. Poker is a great hobby of mine and it doesnt have to cost an arm and a leg to play either. You can play regardless fo your fitness, intellegence (although the ability to count helps) sex and as long as you are over 18, age!

 People pay £10 a ticket to go to the cinema these days, and who wants to go alone? So there is 2 of you, sitting in a dark room, with the popcorn, parking emter money, large coke and before you know it you have spent £50. Drink at the bar afterwards? Another £20. Why not take that £70 and log onto an online poker site. You dont have to play alone, the number of times I have played with my partner as a team and had a really good time is loads and the one or two disagreements are neither here nor there.

I love playing poker and always choose the rooms with low blinds - like $0.5 - so I can get through the equivalent of £5 in over the time it takes to see a film at an overpriced Odeon!! Poker is exciting, you never know what hand you are going to get dealt. You can play for so little money that you get the excitement of gambling with the knowledge that you are riskign only 10p.

I cannot see the difference between having a splutter on the poker tables once a week to going to some sleazy club, paying £5 a drink and waking up the next day without a clue what happened to you the night before. Actually i can, I would much rather have played a game of poker with my friends over a few glasses of wine than get hammered!

What do you think?

Hi thats me! I love playing slots, casino and bingo cos its so much fun to win and also I LOVE all the chat between me and all my mates. I play all the time (at work) and even write this at work - my boss would go berserk if he knew! But I’m getting quite a following people seem to love my blog which is great for me, better than the boring day job of research ahhhh.

I’m also going to try and make it as a poker pro… I know that seems far fetched but going to enter some freerolls tournies and try my luck. One of my brothers mates just won a freeroll and got a ticket to the World Series all free and paid for…. I want to be there next year or maybe this year at the London WSOP

WATCH this space to see how I do over the next few months and check in from time to time as I give you the best bonuses, offers and freerolls that I find out there on the world wide web and share my tips and advice for winnin

Vegas - any tips

Posted on 19-06-2007 | Posted in Casino by Gambling Diva

I wonder how the new US legislation is affecting all the online casino business. I bet all the casinos in Vegas are benefitting loads… never been but I would love to. Its supposed to be amazing over there with all the massive casinos (with shopping malls and hotels inside) Thats even where they hold the WSOP every year in Vegas -its been quite a massive event this year.  Anyone been out there and recommend somewhere - my brothers organising a stag out in Vegas this year and he wants to go over there - mail me your comments and let me know.

Anyone won big?  what games are the best to play and which casinos have the best promotions and freebies?
