We’re super-charging our Gold 21 prizes!

Written by megadestructo / April 30, 2012 5:13 pm / 139 Comments

Some of you may have heard some rumblings this weekend about changes to Gold 21. Well, it’s true! We at Gamesville are always trying to make things as fair as possible for the largest amount of users and sometimes it requires us to tweak things a little bit. Currently Gold 21 sits as one of the most frequent paying games on our site and we’re not going to change that. You may think that eliminating the $2.00 prize will certainly decrease the number of people who win but this isn’t the case: not only are we upping the minimum prize from $2.00 to $5.00 but we’ll be increasing the frequency of those prizes as well!

You read it correctly: we’re handing out a larger minimum prize, and more prizes to boot!

But wait, there’s more…

One woman wins TWO $1 million Powerball tickets!

What are the odds? Astronomical! However, sometimes people do beat them. In the case of Virginia Fike of Berryville, VA,  she beat them good.

Really good.

“I picked numbers based on my parents’ anniversary and their ages at that time, divided by the year they were married,” said Ms. Fike. “I just love the jackpot games and I play when I can afford it.”

Two $1 million Powerball tickets, one recipient. Someone sure is smiling on this lucky lady!

What do you think she’ll be doing with all the money? What would *you* do with all that money?

Written by megadestructo / April 17, 2012 12:33 pm / 23 Comments

They say that any weekend that contains Friday the 13th is an unlucky one. Who are the mysterious ‘they?’ I’m not sure but fellow Gamesviller Dawnsue1 of Junction City, AR proves them wrong by a mile! This past Sunday (4/16), Dawnsue1 cleared an impressive $1,878 playing Three-Eyed Bingo. That’s 430 pounds of Ballpark Hot Dogs, enough to get you past the first month of Summer! Congratulations!

And since Dawnsue1 hasn’t really filled out her profile or provided an avatar, here are some Red Panda cubs playing around instead.
