The Epiphone electric guitar is made with a select Maple body and top with F-holes, trapeze bridge, Mahogany neck (24-3/4″ scale), neck and body binding, two volume and two tone controls, and parallelogram inlays. The Casino Sunburst electric guitar has a beautiful full warm sound that only a classic semi-acoustic electric guitar of this quality can have. With its traditional classy double ‘F’ sound holes or ‘F-holes’, the tone the guitar delivers is second to none and still sounds quintessentially Beatlesque. Visually the vintage video-poker online Sunburst is a warm honey stroke amber Sunburst color with a nitro-cellulose lacquer high gloss finish. The Casino is also available in traditional antique ‘Tobacco’ Sunburst also.

Used extensively by George Harrison and John Lennon on the Revolver album the Casino helped to give these records their “electric” sound. The Beatles purchased three Casinos back in 1965. Paul McCartney even purchased a left handed model and played it on some of the guitar solos that appeared on Revolver. Fitted with two vintage P-90 single-coil pickups, the Casino still delivers those Beatle-esque tones at a price that almost every player can afford. The Epiphone Casino lent itself so well to the creation of the psychedelic sound that The Beatles were perfecting, so the guitars were used again when the band recorded their ground breaking Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album in the studio a year later in 1967.

The Epiphone Casino Sunburst electric guitar is a fantastic example of a beautiful sounding and good looking classic Sunburst guitar.

If you want to make a killing out of an online casino, you must go bonus hunting. There are strategies involved but you should be playing smart.

The basic premise is simple. You deposit your money in your online casino account – for example $100. The casino you signed up at will give you an equal bonus of $100, and your account now jumps up to $200. You are required to play a certain amount before you can withdraw your funds. This is called the “wagering requirement”, which you’ll find on the Terms and Conditions page of each online casino. Say that at a particular casino you have to wager the amount of your deposit and the bonus money combined multiplied by 12 before you can withdraw any money from your account. Using the above example figures, this means you must place a total of $200 X 12 = $2,400 in bets before you can withdraw any funds. If it exists, wagering requirement is strictly enforced in all online casinos. If you withdraw any funds prior to meeting this requirement, you will usually lose the full amount of the bonus and any winnings from your play.

You need to know at first the basic blackjack strategy. (E.g. when to hit, stand, and double down). Next, deposit $100 and you will receive a free $100 sticky bonus (now you have $200 in your account). Enter a single hand blackjack table and start wagering $3. If you win, start a new hand with the same amount. If you lose that hand, double your wager ($6 now), and so on. Since most of the casino set their blackjack table’s limit to $100, you can only double your wager 5 times. As blackjack is one of the quickest games in casinos, after 15 to 20 minutes of playing without losing all six consecutive hands, you should win around $200, and the wagering requirement will almost be achieved and you can cash out (wager requirement is pretty low with sticky bonus). You might think this strategy is pretty simple, and that’s the beauty of it; it works, and works amazingly well with you having to do minimal mental work, winning in a short amount of time. Only one out of four times would we lose six consecutive hands before winning $200.

Bonus hunting is a patience game. Poker players who ‘bonus hunt’ have a tight and risk adverse style. They get in and out with their bonus money hoping to either break even or make a couple bucks at the tables. Their real profit comes from the bonus money they release at the end. So if you got the patience and desire to make modest amounts of money then bonus hunting might be something you should try.

To bonus hunt properly your style should replicate that of a tight solid player. After bonus hunting choose the poker site that rewards loyalty. Also pick a site that has some bad players. Happy hunting!

If you are looking to take advantage of casino bonuses, how do you qualify? Casinos all over the internet are offering bonuses at every turn. Some bonus examples include Slot bonuses, New Sign up bonuses, Deposit Bonuses, High Roller Bonuses, Blackjack Bonuses, and so on.

Casino bonuses are in various shapes and forms. Some may be cashable, meaning that after meeting requirements, you can withdraw this money into your own checking account and others may not be cashable, which means the bonuses are for you to play with, but you cannot cash this particular money out into your own checking account.

The secret to taking advantage of bonuses offered by online casinos is to understand how they work. In general, there are no two internet casinos that are the same. In the same sense, most bonuses are different as well. For instance, deposit bonuses may be different. The amount could be different and the requirements may be different. For example, you might receive a flat deposit bonus, regardless of how much you deposit. On the other hand, you may receive a matching bonus – up to a predetermined amount.

In other casino bonuses, you may be required to wager a minimum amount before you can cash out or take advantage of the bonus. At the same time, you might have to have a certain amount within your account to play with. Each online casino has its own set of rules and regulations, which can become confusing to any new player.

Learning how to qualify for casino bonuses is easy, as long as you carefully read and understand the conditions placed upon them and have full knowledge of what it takes to get that free money, before you get started.

The city of Las Vegas and its casinos have inspired filmmakers looking to inject excitement and intrigue into their movies. The most famous movie with a Las Vegas backdrop is 1960’s ‘Ocean’s Eleven’, where the members of the original ‘Rat Pack’ – Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis – plan to rob five of the top casinos in Las Vegas in a single night. Things were going accordingly planned – at least until after the heists.

‘Ocean’s Eleven’ was remade successfully in 2001 by Steven Soderburgh, with George Clooney in the leading role of Danny Ocean and Brad Pitt, Matt Damon and Elliott Gould as gang members, amongst others. The 2001 version updated the storyline while still putting across the same glamorous image of Vegas as in the first movie.

Matt Damon is Mike McDermott, one of the world’s best poker players in the 1998 film ‘Rounders’, who has given up the game in order to concentrate on finishing law school. When his old friend Worm (Edward Norton) is released from prison, he persuades McDermott to return to the game in order to pay off some bad debts he’s accrued. McDermott consequently finds himself playing in a series of poker games where the stakes are forever increasing and the tension is forever building.

Finally, a list of casino movies is incomplete without a mention of the 1995 Martin Scorcese movie ‘Casino’, which is considered by many to be the definitive casino film. This tells the true story of Sam ‘Ace’ Rothstein, a mobster who moves to Las Vegas and becomes the operator of the Tangiers casino. Robert De Niro makes the lead role his own, as Rothstein copes with marriage to a drug addict (played by Sharon Stone) and friendship with Nicky Santoro (Joe Pesci), a fellow mobster slowly spiraling into a world of violence.
