FAQs regarding the event:
Q: What is the dress code?
A: Our theme this year is Casino Royale: Think glamourous, Riviera-inspired evening attire. No jeans, sneakers or t-shirts, please.
Q: Will there be food?
A: Yes. Hors d’oeuvres will be served.
Q: Where can I buy tickets?
A: Advance purchase is available online until Friday, Nov. 13, or until we sell out. Check out our group rate, too!
Q: Are there a limited number of tickets?
A: Yes, we are strictly limited to the capacity of the venue. Tickets have sold out for past Casino Nights so purchase your tickets before there are no more left!
Q: What casino games are available to play?
A: Blackjack, craps, roulette and Texas Hold’em poker. Poker will be available to all guests, though only Platinum-ticket guests will be allowed entry into the High Roller Poker Tournament.
Q: What is the entry fee of the event?
A: 3 Ticket Levels:
Ticket Price Starting Chips Poker Tournament Entry
Platinum (High Roller) $500 $1200 worth Yes
Gold $225 $800 worth No
Silver $150 $400 worth No
Tickets are available at a lower price when purchased earlier. Higher-priced tickets give you more chips and/or High Roller poker tournament entry, a better “bang for the buck!”
Q: What does my entry fee include?
A: All tickets include single admission to this event, which includes open bar for the duration of the night and eligibility to compete for various raffle prizes. Platinum ticket holders will also be entered into the High Roller poker tournament, where they will compete for separate prizes.
Q: How are raffle tickets used? How many raffle tickets will I receive for chips?
A: 1 raffle ticket = $400 worth of playing chips, rounding up to the “higher 400” (e.g., $425 = 2 raffle tickets). Chips can be traded in for raffle tickets at the end of the night. Raffle tickets are used to enter into the drawing for each raffle prize, which will be held at the end of the night.
Q: What is the High Roller Poker Tournament?
A: The High Roller poker tournament is a closed, tournament-style competition available to our VIPs who purchase Platinum tickets. Entrants will compete in No-Limit Texas Hold’em poker for a separate prize. The first hand will be dealt at 8 p.m.
Q: As a High Roller, can I play at the other table games as well?
A: Yes, High Rollers will be given $1,200 worth of chips for play at the table games outside of the tournament, and can enter the raffle for the raffle prizes as well.
Q: What are the prizes for the High Roller Poker Tournament?
A: Only High Rollers can compete for the tournament prize.
First Place: Gift card for $1,500 or 30% of the entry pool, whichever is greater
Example: For 1-10 total entrants, $1,500 for first place. For 15 total entrants, first place prizes will be $2,250.
Q: How long will the event run?
A: Table games will be open from 7:00 p.m. – 10:30 p.m. Raffle prize winners will be announced at 10:40 p.m. Registration begins at 6:30 pm.
