Three New Casino Games Raise the Stakes at Belle Rock Entertainment

Games will include Advanced Roulette and 100 Play Power Poker

Gibraltar, May 1, 2006 – Belle Rock Entertainment has consistently stayed ahead of the curve when it comes to offering players the most entertaining and lucrative games in the industry. This month, with three new additions to their already expansive gaming roster, Belle Rock Entertainment offers players on River Belle Online Casino, Lucky Nugget Online Casino, The Gaming Club Online Casino, and Jackpot City Online Casino, the chance to play the most dynamic and engaging games on the web. An all-star lineup of European Roulette Gold Series, Double Joker 100 Play Power Poker and Avalon Video Slot have just become available to players, so if you’re looking to try something new, Belle Rock Entertainment’s online casinos are the place to start.


European Roulette Gold Series

This roulette game is far and away the best of its type on the Internet. Player screens that offer razor sharp visual quality, crystal clear ambient sounds that set the mood, and little details like Bet Timers and easy to use control buttons, come together to give players the authentic roulette table experience. European Roulette Gold Series is the difference between trying to recreate the excitement of the casino, and wondering why you ever bothered going to the casino in the first place.


Double Joker 100 Play Power Poker

You could argue that multi-play Power Poker is the bread and butter of online casinos in that everybody has to have it. Of course, if that’s the case, then Double Joker 100 Play Power Poker is the strawberry jam, giving players the ability to play up to 100 hands of video poker at a time. Sitting down to play Double Joker 100 is a test of your wits, concentration, and endurance. For the person with the right mix of all three, it could also be one of the most lucrative seats around.


Avalon Video Slot

Avalon is a 5 reel, 20 Payline video slot that holds many secrets and treasures for those bold enough to find them. With free spins, mystery multipliers, Scatter and two Wild opportunities as well as a Gamble feature where the intrepid can double of quadruple their wins, the possible payout is $105,000. That’s enough to make Avalon Video Slot an epic in its own right.

“As established industry leaders we’re in a position to push the envelope with our games, expanding and refining our core offerings so that our customers can experience the best possible gambling experience,” said Tim Johnson, Chairman of Carmen Media Group, owner of Belle Rock Entertainment.
