You must have come across the World Series of Poker in Las Vegas. Both the professionals and amateurs would get together and play all different types of poker games for several weeks. A similar event for slots players has been created. The launching of the World Series of Slots took place recently at the Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, and the result and fierce competition was treated like the cherry on a cake even if the world’s economy is not at its best right now.

The Chief Executive Officer of Golden Nugget, Tilman Fertitta commented that this kind of competition has never been done before and gamers from all over the world enjoyed the event. Such events will keep occurring in the future due to the huge success of the launch.

Michele Leone from San Diego from California won the first prize and walked away with a reward of $100,000 and the stunning WSOS bracelet.

There were also several other prizes and rewards such as the runner up prize of $15,000.

Each participant was guaranteed money rewards once they cross one level that is for each round. The 4 top places were awarded cash prizes of over $8,000 and the rewards went on for another 140 players with a minimum prize of $500.

This has surely booted up the financial status of Las Vegas casino especially after the struggles that had been undergone since the economy crisis has been occurring.

There were around 280 competitors at the event held between April 17th -19th and there were 8 rounds totally. The casinos gave away a total of $262,000 in prize money to the proud winners.

This event has proved to be quite a generous one, offering the players not moving to the second round a prize of $200, as well as an entry into the bonus tournament.
