Virgin Casino is hosting its own version of the Olympic Games in the Go For Gold online promotion. Six events will be hosted between August 1 and August 21. Since Virgin also offers online bingo and online poker, these events will also be included in the online promotion. Each event will have one gold medal winner, six silver medal winners and 25 bronze medal winners.

The first event is All Games that will run from August 1 to August 4. You need to wager £30 on any game during the event period in order to win one ticket to the lucky draw. No matter how much you wager more than £30 you will be eligible for only one ticket. The prize draw will take place on August 5. There is one Grand Prize of a Sonos Multi Room Speaker System, six prizes of an iPod Touch 16GB and 25 prizes of £10 cash. The cash prizes are without any wagering requirements.

The second event is Bingo for which you must wager a minimum of £5 on any bingo game. For the Casino event you must wager at least £50 on any online casino or live casino game offered at Virgin. In the Slots event the wagering requirement is at least £30 on any online slot game. It is followed by the Poker event where you wager a minimum of £5 in order to win an entry to the prize draw. The Go For Gold online promotion ends with another All Games event. The dates for each event and the exact prizes offered are specified at the promotions page of the Virgin Casino web site.

The Virgin Casino Olympics also has a special hexathlon event in which every player is guaranteed a share of a £10,000 prize pool. In order to be eligible for a share you have to fulfil the minimum wagering requirements for all six events. All eligible players will equally share the entire prize pool. There is no guaranteed minimum or maximum prize.
