BackgammonMasters Launch Multiplayer Blackjack Tournaments

BackgammonMasters has added Multi-player Blackjack Tournaments to its Game Lobby. These tournaments have doubled traffic to its powerful tournament platform. The long anticipated Blackjack tournaments caused a flood of traffic to the game servers which handled the influx of players with ease.

CEO Jay Ryan had this to say: "This was a great test, we had many more players than anticipated and were thrilled to see that the tournament went off without a glitch."

There were hundreds of players in the Blackjack tournaments with each player seated at tables of up to 5 players competing against the dealer. According to the rules whichever player wins the most at his table advances to the next stage, and so on until the final winner is left.

In addition to their Backgammon and Blackjack Tournaments, BackgammonMasters will soon be launching Poker tournaments. Tournaments at http://www.backgammonmasters.com began with Backgammon Freerolls. These freerolls quickly gained popularity amongst online backgammon players. The success of those tournaments created a demand for the Blackjack tournaments and the soon-to-be-launched Poker tournaments. At the BackgammonMasters platform, up to 6 tournaments may be running simultaneously on the platform in addition to all the other game tables and casino slots.

The increasing popluarity for multi-player poker and blackjack tournaments are to some degree linked with the release of such Hollywood films as "21" starring Kevin Spacey and involving the game of blackjack and the casino industry. The glamour and glory associated with these games in the film has attracted a new generation of young players to the tables, all of them hoping to become high rollers "as seen on TV".
