Race or raffle - Grande Vegas Casino has two ways to win an iPad

ROAD TOWN, British Virgin Islands -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- Grande Vegas players can win an iPad by working their way up the leaderboard or, even easier, in a free live raffle draw. Either way, two Grande Vegas Casino players are going to win themselves an Apple iPad this month. Casino players can earn points for the "$5,000 iPad Challenge" leaderboard race until July 30. The next Live Raffle iPad draw will be July 18.

Grande Vegas Casino players earn points whenever they play, deposit or wager. Through July, players are competing against each other for their share of $5,000 in casino bonuses and prizes that will be awarded this month. Players can work their way up the leaderboard and win free bonuses up to $500. The player with the most points wins an iPad.

“I’ll give you a couple of tips,” offers one player who regularly places in the top 10 in Grande Vegas Casino leaderboard races. “First, remember that rankings can change every day. You have to keep playing to keep your place. And second, don’t be too quick to withdraw. Points are deducted for that so I usually wait.”

“We asked some players what kind of prizes they’d like and the overwhelming favorite was an iPad,” said Grande Vegas manager Robert Miller. “So we thought if one iPad is a good prize then we’ll make it twice as good and give away two!”

Players don’t have to deposit or play to be entered in the July 18 Live Raffle. Every Grande Vegas player gets one free ticket but those who have made deposits get three more. Players who deposit on July 17 and 18 will get 10 bonus tickets. To win raffle prizes, players must be logged on between 11:00 am and 1:00 pm Eastern Time. The iPad winner will be drawn in the final raffle at 12:45 pm.
