Dear Casino City Readers, My life is not as exciting as you think. Want to know what I did this past weekend? I watched family vacation slideshows with my parents, my sister and her boyfriend. Slideshows. Both nights. This is not a joke. See what happens after one week in Montreal and the Bahamas when you're surrounded by Swedish people? Detox all the way. No booze, no sååååja, no shpritz, no nothing. It was fekking fantastic. Now I am a new woman, ready to take on Vegas in early July for the World Series of Poker, but that's another story for another time. Now that I have regained my strength, I was able to work with my contact at Everest Poker and Everest Casino to create some special bonus offers for Casino City players only. Everest Poker offers all players a $100 bonus, however if you sign up with Everest Poker through Casino CIty, you will receive an additional $50 for a total of $150 upon signup. To claim this bonus, enter bonus code CCITY150 within read more

I am back from Aruba and not a penny richer. Sadly I did not take home any winnings from the Golden Palace blackjack tournament as I finished 4th out of 7. Whoops.
