LAS VEGAS, May 5, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- S.S. from Finland knows his way around the video poker table. He's also a very smart gambler. Making sensible deposits, betting confidently, winning small hands and even the odd jackpot; then withdrawing his money to enjoy it. It's this kind of level-headed player that every casino hates.

Perhaps at a land-based casino, S.S. would be under scrutiny from the Pit Boss by now - each week, the confident young man who waltzes in with a pocket full of cash and waltzes out with a suitcase full of it! However, at an online casino it's all fair game. SS can take his time in the comfort of his own home, calculating his every hand for as long as he wishes, making sure that every bet counts.

This is what has been happening at CasinoClassic.com, the flagship brand of online casino group CasinoRewards.com. CasinoClassic.com offers over 50 variations on the traditional video poker game with something to suit every level of player, from newbie to card shark. S.S. won his $700,000 fortune on Aces and Faces Video Poker, a straightforward version of standard poker that tops the games charts at each of the 22 CasinoRewards.com brands.

"I entered a few weeks ago into my Casino Classic account and started to play my favourite game, Jacks or Better video poker. I planned to have some relaxing time on my own. After some plays I was winning and I decided to continue my playing because I felt lucky. I was right. I won 100,000 Euros with a royal flush. I thought that I did well, but that was only a good start. During the next week I got a natural royal flush in Aces and Faces, Joker Poker and again in Jacks or Better. Now I'm planning to have the summer holiday of my life. Thank you Casino Classic!" - S.S.

Finland, home of lucky gamblers it seems, brought us Klaus E and his $5.5 million Mega Moolah online slot jackpot win at BlackjackBallroom.com in 2008. Klaus hit the headlines in part due to his colossal win, but also due to the fact that it was won thanks to free casino bonus money. No doubt still a sore subject at CasinoRewards.com...
