Harrah’s Northern California first US casino to launch player-funded drawing HotSeat Jackpot

Industry

Harrah’s Northern California announced it has become “the first casino in the nation to offer HotSeat Jackpot,” a player-funded drawing where guests wager against one another with bets ranging from $1 to $100 for a chance to win a jackpot every hour.

HotSeat Jackpot, also known as HotSeat Lotto in certain locales, allows guests to play table games while entering an hourly player-funded hot seat drawing across all tables within the property.

Each gaming table has a tablet linked with all the other tables throughout the casino floor and, once an hour, the tablet chimes signaling that a four-minute betting window will open. 

We are excited to be the first to offer HotSeat Jackpot, which provides our guests with a convenient digital hot seat drawing experience every hour,” said Jeff Cutri, SVP and General Manager at Harrah’s Northern California. “At Harrah’s, we are always focused on elevating our guests’ experience by providing unique and fun gaming opportunities they can’t find anywhere else.”

Players may wager from $1 to $100, with each dollar representing an entry into the HotSeat Jackpot drawing. During the betting window, players can see the actual amount of the jackpot as it grows from additional wagers by fellow players.

When the betting window closes, the game randomly selects a winner and the screen flashes across all tables announcing the lucky winner and the size of the jackpot.

We couldn’t imagine a better partner than Harrah’s Northern California to debut our cutting-edge community-based hot seat gaming product here in the United States,” said Lance Lietzau, CEO of HotSeat Lotto

We’ve realized international success with a dozen properties in Mexico currently offering our revolutionary HotSeat game. The experience gained in rolling out both our single casino, as well as wide area progressive system, which allows multiple casinos under the same brand to link players across multiple properties, has ensured a seamless launch for guests at Harrah’s.”
