God bless you Mike Oldfield. It's the early 1970's, you're 18 years old, and you've knocked up a demo of Tubular Bells. You've overdubbed the instruments by blocking the erase head on your Beocord ¼ inch tape machine and your efforts have been rejected by dozens of record labels.

Finally, you connect with some engineers working in Richard Branson's residential recording studio – the Manor – in Oxfordshire. They and Branson love your noodlings. Branson has just formed Virgin Records. Tubular Bells is the label's first release.

The album goes on to sell 16 million copies worldwide. It's establishes Virgin Records, Branson eventually sells his record label to bankroll his airline. Virgin is a huge global brand and it decides to add an online casino to its portfolio.

And now – the money shot: Virgin Casino has just introduced a loyalty scheme called V*POINTS that rewards players for… you guessed it… Loyalty.

Every cash play you make at Virgin Casino earns you V*POINTS.  Players can then exchange their V*POINTS for other goodies on offer from the Virgin Empire.

Ironically, you can NOT exchange your V*POINTS for a copy of Tubular Bells because (as I mentioned) a tearful Branson dumped the label in 1992 for £500 million. So, even though it's down to Mike Oldfield that you are earning the points, you can't get Mike back…

However… As it's Virgin, you can spend your hard won and earned points for cash, Virgin Atlantic Flying Club miles, charity, Virgin Vouchers, or Virgin Experiences. Hmmm….Virgin Experiences?

So… I guess what we are trying to say here at WhichSlotMachine.com is: If you are going to have a flutter, you may as well spend your hard earned cash somewhere that offers you a kickback.

If you're going to enjoy a little online gaming action, why not trot down to Branson's pad and play his slots. Lots of our favourites are there including Rainbow Riches ready and waiting for you to spin 'em. Go on.. Don't be shy. Play at the Virgin Casino and start racking up those V*POINTS today!
