The most popular sporting event on the planet, the Football (Soccer) World Cup kicked off on Friday with Fortune Lounge Online Casinos offering big promotions to their customers.

Part of the preparation for this year's Football World Cup being held in South Africa saw many online as well as land based gambling companies gearing up for a massive increase in betting from their customers. To sweeten the pot, the Fortune lounge group of online casinos has put in place some tempting promotions that are bound to attract a massive flurry of new member sign ups along with greater activity from existing members around the world.

Between 18th June and 10th July this year, all of the online casinos under the Fortune Lounge umbrella, which includes such well established and highly popular casinos as the Royal Vegas Online and Platinum Play, will be taking part in their massive World Cup Soccer Fever Promotion. This promotion gets underway at the start of Round 16 of the tournament where players can select the team they believe has the best chance of winning its match, then be in with a chance of winning in weekly held tournaments if they guessed correctly. Prizes included in the promotion are triple Bonus Reward Points along with as many as 10,000 casino credits that you can use towards future bets at the casinos.

The promotion runs for four weeks in total and during that time, players can enter their own predictions on the outcomes of matches and of course there are the many online casino games to be played as well. One big promotion that is currently soon to finish is the Oceans 15, which saw plenty of big wins registered across all participating casinos and saw some lucky players being upgraded to Diamond Status in the casinos Rewards Programme,  while others won a great deal of casino credits and loyalty points.

With the whole of the African continent buzzing with football fever thanks to the immense popularity of the world's favourite team sport, opportunities to make big wins are coming thick and fast at all of the online casinos belonging to the Fortune Lounge Group. Rewards programs allow players to redeem points that they accumulate from games they are involved in regardless of their win or loss status, which is a pretty big incentive to play. If you haven't already, then pay a visit to Platinum Play or the Royal Vegas and see for yourself how you can join the winners thanks to the World Cup tournament of 2010.
