Michiel Van Kets asked:


You need to think carefully when you are planning an event of any type. There are so much to do and so many pitfalls to fall into. You will find that it is easy to get buried in the processes rather than working on your great ideas you’re stuck with a load of organizational red tape. You want to try and make the most of the ideas that you have so that you can make your fun casino event the most successful and memorable for your guests and of course yourself.

It’s important to ensure that your casino event is taking on the feel that you want. You do not want to ruin the event by choosing the wrong venue for the function. Your biggest feat is to make sure that your guests have a great time and ideally your event is talked about as the party of the year. Doing this does not have to be tough, In fact, you can have the party of the year if you really set your mind to it. It’s imperative to consider a number of things when it comes to choosing your events venue. You need to be sure that you are looking out for something that will suit everyone. You need to have the event jam packed with fun and entertainment so that anyone that attends is going to have something great to enjoy and talk about, so you will need to consider not only a fun casino, but possibly other entertainment as well. They will be excited to be there and afterwards, they will be glad that they attended.

Another thing to look out for when you are planning your fun casino is the food. You need to make sure that you are able to find a menu that everyone is going to enjoy and that will fit in with the themed casino entertainment. You will want to meet the needs of all the different types of guests to ensure that they have the best food that they have ever had. If you are having children at your party, you will want to accommodate their needs as well. You will certainly want something great for them to munch on.

You should also make sure that the area that you are holding the event is going to be best for the occasion. You need to find somewhere that will fit all of your guests comfortably so that no one is uncomfortable and feeling like they are cramped in like sardines, at the same time an area that is too large will mean there is a lack of the all important atmosphere. It is also important to consider the placement of the fun casino tables, you will want to ensure they are far enough away from any loud musical entertainment so the croupiers can be heard, but not so far away the casino is forgotten. The more room that you have will mean that the more people you can invite. Remember that you want to make sure that you are using a place that will keep your guests in one area and allow them to mingle, as they should be. In an ideal situation the bar area will be within the main room your event is taking place in, this will see a better atmosphere than a separate bar your guests will have to leave the room to get too. You will see that your guests will have a better time if they are all meeting and chatting along in the same area. You do not want them to be scattered around or separated.

Getting what you want from your event is not going to be easy. You will have to make sacrifices and use a lot of your resources. You may also have to hire someone to help you along and get you through the organizational tape that goes with this sort of thing. When you are able to find some help with your event, you will feel a lot better and you may also see that your event goes a lot smoother as well. This is something that you can be proud of and excited about at the same time. Organizing a great fun casino event is not always easy, but if you get it right it will all be worth it. It is advisable to contact a professional fun casino hire company, they will be able to advise you on venue selection and layout that best suits a Vegas style casino event!

Winning Slot Jackpot Stories

Friday, September 12th, 2008
Golden Nugget Casino
Gayle Mitchell asked:


If you are looking for the true ‘dream makers’, that award goes to the ever-increasing progressive jackpots.

I have compiled 5 of these Winning Stories to brighten your dreams tonight.

Vegas Big Hit

“Nothing is sweeter than winning $3.2 million in downtown Las Vegas,” says cab driver Robert Baker as he showed off the very large ceremonial check to tourists on Fremont Street.

The Elvira, Mistress of the Dark slot at the Golden Nugget Casino was the largest hit on a nickel slot machine and sets a new world record for the denomination.

“I play nickel progressives,” Baker said. “They are my favorites and it really paid off today”.

After coming down, Baker says he will again be behind the wheel of his taxi as usual. “I need to take some time to figure out what I’m going to do from this point, and going about my life as usual seems like the best way to keep my feet on the ground”.

One item that’s a sure buy and a lifelong dream is to buy a Lincoln Town car.

LA History is Made

The largest slot jackpot in the history of LA Gaming at Delta Downs Racetrack for $8,718,983 was a gigantic payday for Kyle Hilton DeVillier, a game warden from Schiro, TX.

DeVillier, 43, had played only $6 on the Wheel of Fortune slot with $7 in credits remaining.

“I had weak knees”, DeVillier said, after realizing he had become a multimillionaire. Future plans include a larger home and sending his two children to college.

Tahoe Shines

“I’m lucky here at the Horizon,” said Marin. “I have won a couple of jackpots, but never anything like this one”. Cesar Marin was still in shock with his millionaire status after hitting a Wheel of Fortune $5 MegaJackpot for $2,948,093 at the Horizon Resort Casino in Lake Tahoe.

The winner from Sacramento, CA played the $5 machine for about 15 minutes before his huge payday. “I knew right away that I hit the big jackpot, but, I’m still in shock,” said Marin, who with his brother Jose owns and operates a concrete company. He further stated that he treats his parents to trips to Lake Tahoe often. “Life has certainly changed in an instant with this huge jackpot, but I will try to invest the money wisely. I’ll just have to let all this set in before I decide. I do know that I’m going to help out my family”.

Thanks for the College Fund, Mom

Kathy Losada, 42 of Boca Raton, FL enjoyed her Vegas getaway even more with a Wheel of Fortune Megajackpot win of $2.6 Million at Caesars Palace.

The new millionaire said she had been winning consistently during the trip, but wasn’t prepared for the ‘big one’.

She immediately called her two teen-age children to tell them to pick out a new car “to share”.

Also, leaving her health care industry job was on her mind. “I’d like to be a stay-at-home soccer mom until my kids finish school. The 20-year annuity will ensure a college education,” said Losada.

“There is nothing more heartwarming that a big jackpot that makes possible a college education for two accomplished young people” said Caesars Palace President Mark Juliano. “We wish Kathleen and her family all the happiness in the world”.

For herself, Lodada said she intended to visit the exclusive boutiques at Caesars Forum Shops and maybe splurge on a Louis Vutton purse.

Lucky Sevens Again

Caspar J. Guida of Brooklyn, NY won $1,161,019 on a Millionaire 777’s progressive Slot machine at Trump Marina Hotel Casino in Atlantic City.

A big fan of this slot, Mr. Guida becomes the second person to hit the top Millionaire 777 jackpot in AC.

As luck would have it, this winner was waiting to be paid for a smaller jackpot he’d just hit at a nearby slot when he decided to try the same game with another $100.

The investment paid off with a super progressive jackpot. While he has no immediate plans for the money, the retiree said to onlookers that he intends to throw a big party for his friends and family.

His choices are to either receive his winnings in one lump sum or have it paid out in annual installments over the next 20 years.
