In honor of the holiday season, I’m counting down the “12 Slots of Christmas” — your guide to the top 12 online slot machines that feature the holidays, Christmas, or winter wonderlands.

In this part 3 of 3, I’ll count down from the number 4 online slot to the number 1 online slot. Check out Part 1 and part 2 if you missed them.

4. Merry Bells: Check out the goofy-looking snowman in this online slot machine that features wilds, scatters, and the Santa’s Stocking Stuffer bonus round. [I play at 7Spins.]

3. Santa’s Wild Ride: A Harley-riding Santa, with a choice of three styles of Wild in the five-reel, 243 ways to win video slot. [Check out this online slot machine at  Quatro Casino.]

2. Santa Strikes Back: The second in a trilogy of Christmas-themed slots from RTG, all of which made the top 5. As you join in this joyous battle to settle order in Santa’s Secret Village, beware as when three or more Santas or Rudolphs are victorious in their scuffle, you will receive your first present – 7 free games! [Play this online slot machine at Slots of Vegas.]

1. Return of the Rudolph: The third in a trilogy of Christmas-themed slots from RTG, all of which made the top 5 — this online slot machine was released just weeks ago. Return of the Rudolph contains features from the previous two games (Rudolph’s Revenge, Santa Strikes Back) and a new bonus round feature. Rudolph is Wild for all symbols except his nefarious henchmen, the scattered ‘Thugs’. When 3 Rudolphs appear on Reel 3, he will expand and triple all prizes if substituting in a winning combination. Spinning up 3 or 4 Thugs symbols will trigger the Rudolph’s Revenge Feature, the Santa Strikes Back Feature or the Rudolph’s Rampage Bonus Screen Feature. Help Santa to rescue his elves and be rewarded with free games and an array of potential extras, including quadrupled prizes, expanding tripling Wilds on Reel 3 and extra Wilds! [Play this online slot machine at Slots of Vegas.]

BetOnSoft Online Casinos Offer 28 Video Slot Machines

As I mentioned in a previous post, BetOnSoft is a new online casino software provider that is currently running five online casinos — my favorite of which is Treasure Mile.

Among the slot machines at BetOnSoft online casinos, there are the typical themes of gladiators, jungle animals, and spin-the-wheel / “Wheel of Fortune”. However, they also have some slot machines with some themes that I’ve not seen at any other online casinos.

Fight on the side of Captain Shockwave and the Alpha Squad as they take on the Omega Syndicate. It’s all out action, an adventure and clash of two major forces in the ultimate showdown! Get your uniform, grab your battle plan and go, go, go! Win up to 120,000 coins and up to 24 free spins on this 15 coin, 30 line wild video slot!
It’s time to saddle up and head out west. But you’d better be quick on the spin if you want to get anywhere in this wild west slot! Win up to 60,000 coins! 30 Line. 10 Coins. Up to 20 free spins. 2 expanding wilds!
Two powerful planets are at war and only you can help decide the outcome of this galactic conflict. Spin the reels and decide the fate of mankind. Win up to 50,000 coins! 15 Lines, 5 coin, up to 10 free spins, feature game, wild, x 2 multiplier.

Here is a complete list of the online video slot machines from BetOnSoft online casinos.

All US players are welcome to play these online slot machines at any of these five online casinos: Treasure Mile, Mandarin Palace, Grand Eagle, WizBet, Lucky Creek.

Two Ways Royal Online Video Poker with 99.79% Return

In Two Ways Royal online video poker, a 2-through-6 straight flush is called a Low Royal Flush and it pays the same as a Royal Flush. With the proper pay table, max coins played, and optimal play, Two Ways Royal online video poker returns an exceptional 99.79% — that’s only a 0.21% house edge!

The good news is that there are several US-friendly Gaming Right Media (GRM) online casinos that deal Two Ways Royal online video poker with this player-friendly return table.

Playtech online casinos also deal Two Ways Royal online video poker with this same generous  in return table, but are not open to players in the US.

Don’t you just love video poker? I do! Video poker has some of the best returns in the casino — if you play it correctly, of course.

(While some claim that a Low Royal Flush is an Ace-through-5 straight flush, this is not correct. It is, in fact a 2-through-6 straight flush.)

The Slots3™ online slot machines from BetSoftGaming are arguably the most visually stunning and most interesting of all online slot machines. Recently, they have released three new online slots, available at 7Red Casino.

Best Online Keno Sites

Since I last updated my online keno article, there are a few new places to play online keno. And some places where online keno could be played have left the market. You’ll want to read the complete article for all the details about my analysis of online keno, but here are the highlights.

Summary:

  • The keno games from Parlay, Top Game, Microgaming (MGS), Rival, BetOnSoft (BOS), and VueTec are all better than average; each has an overall payout equal to or greater than about what you will find at a video keno machine in a land-based casino. (Click the previous links to view all online sites that run that software.)
  • The keno games from Party Gaming, 888, CGTV, and B3W are acceptable in terms of their payout percentage, but just barely.
  • Keno should not be played at online sites that run software from RTG, Grand Virtual, Bingo Entertainment Network, Wagerlogic, or Boss.

Recommended Sites:

  • Parlay bingo halls accept players from all states in the United States — For US players, Classic Keno is the best choice for 2- to 9-spot (excluding 8-spot) and Kenoland is the best choice for 11- to 15-spot players
  • Rival Gaming casinos accept players from most states in the United States — For US players, Vegas Jackpot Keno is the best choice for 8-spot players
  • VueTec casinos do not accept players from the United States — Best choice for 2- to 10-spot non-US players

Good luck and have fun playing online keno!
