With June over, the second leg of the SuperSlots Summer Slots tournament series will begin, running throughout July.

As was mentioned in the previous Summer Slots article, this tournament series consists of three events with prize pools of $200,000. A third $100,000 prize pool is also being offered to the best overall players in the series.

The second tournament will run from 1 July to 31 July on the Wheel of Chance slots. These are game show themed slots, just like The Right Prize slots used in the previous Summer Slots tournament. Any player with 5 or more rebuys into the last tournament will receive a free initial entry into the Wheel of Chance Summer Slots tournament.

This tournament will use the 5-reel Wheel of Chance rather than the 3-reel variety. Initial entry will cost $10 for players who do not qualify for the free entry, and rebuys will also be $10 with 5 or more earning a free entry into the third and final Summer Slots tournament. This buys an initial stake of $200 in tournament credits to start playing with. There is no limit to the number of rebuys that may be bought, so those who start out with lousy luck will not have to sit out for the rest of the tournament just due to losing their stake once or twice.

The Wheel of Chance 5-reel slots have 20 paylines that can be played for a bet of as low as 1c per line or as much as $10 per line. This means that players can risk as little as 1c per spin by playing a single line, or else they can risk an entire initial stake on one spin with a $200 bet to cover every line for $10. Each player will have his or her own strategy, but most will involve trying to hit the bonus feature to bring up the Wheel of Chance mini-game where players can win incredible amounts of bonus money. Scatter symbols can also pay out big money, with 5 scatter symbols onscreen paying 500 times the total bet amount. That’s up to $100,000 worth of credits!

First prize for this tournament will be $50,000. Second place will earn $15,000, third will win $5,000, and prizes will continue to be paid down to 8,000th place. Remember that even more prizes are up for grabs with the $100,000 Summer Slots overall performance prizes, which could push up the earnings of the best players considerably.

In order to join in on the fun of the second SuperSlots Summer Series tournament, you will need to join SuperSlots to play for real money and then register for the tournament. It will be running for a whole month, so there is plenty of time to play the Wheel of Chance slots. Remember that new players can benefit from a 100% bonus on a first deposit of up to $300. This could pay for a large number of rebuys and could easily help pay for entry into the many other great slots tournaments frequently run by SuperSlots.
