Press Release Summary: growing demand for casino nights. I am in the industry myself and more and more companies are you using casino nights to bring some excitement to the typical company dinner. Companies that are looking to bring the CEO playing at the same table with the mailroom guy.” For a group activity are going with casino entertainment.
Press Release Body: BOOSTED BY THE recent popularity of celebrity poker tournaments and tribal gaming, along with the timeless allure of Las Vegas, casino events are hot, game vendors say. Adding to the excitement are new gaming options and fresh takes on a tried-and-true theme.
No matter which casino games planners choose, they should not gamble on logistics.
Give games their space, advises Ellie Bingham of Lakewood, Calif.-based D&E Casino Services. “Our craps table is 11 feet by 4 feet, our blackjack table is 5 1/2 feet by 3 1/2 feet, and our roulette table is 7 feet by 4 feet,” she notes. Setup, however, shouldn\'t pose a problem: “Our games are already assembled when we deliver them to the event, and we do not require any power supply unless the event is outside in the evening, where additional lighting may be needed.”
Windecker agrees. “Casino equipment is very space hungry. We will make up a room diagram for the client and venue that easily illustrates how a room can fill up,” she says. Also, she reminds planners, “Casino parties are fairly labor intensive. We use a scale of approximately one setup person for every eight tables in the package … and at least one person at each gaming table,” plus a casino manager and, possibly, relief dealers.
But the payoff, she says, is well worth it, especially at events where an equalizing factor is essential: “Everybody starts with the same amount of play money and everybody has the same chance to win or lose,” she explains
