Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa Marks $2 Billion Milestone in Jackpots Given Away in 2024

A lucky guest – Richard B. – won a $100,000 Mercedes AMG GLE 53 SUV as part of a celebration of $2 billion in jackpots paid out so far in 2024 by Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa.
Richard was playing a Dollar Storm – Caribbean Gold $0.25 progressive slot machine with a $18.75 bet. He won $1680 on the machine, which pushed the casino’s total slots payout for 2024 to over $2 billion. The win earned him the new Mercedes in recognition of surpassing the slot payout milestone.
“This is absolutely amazing. I stopped in to play for just a minute, hit a jackpot, and suddenly I was whisked away to find out I won a car. I’ve been playing at Hard Rocks forever, but this is the first time I’ve ever won a car,” said the winner.
In addition to Richard’s good fortune, 881 guests playing with their Unity Card each received $25 in Bonus Free Play. A total of $22,025 was awarded.
“It’s exciting that we have paid out more than $2 billion in jackpots. We are always dedicated to providing exceptional guest experiences, while ensuring that each visit to Seminole Hard Rock Tampa is truly unforgettable,” said Steve Bonner, President of Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa.
2024 is the third year Seminole Hard Rock Tampa has paid out more than $2 billion in jackpots.
Seminole Hard Rock Tampa has paid out over 723,505 jackpots of $1200 or more so far this year. That’s almost two jackpots for every person who lives in the City of Tampa.

Intralot informs the investment community about the withdrawal of the Maryland contract award Augu

Intralot S.A. informs the investment community that the Maryland State Lottery and Gaming Control Agency (USA), despite an initially favorable recommendation, has ultimately rejected the bid submitted by its subsidiary, Intralot, Inc., for the award of a contract for a new Central Lottery Monitoring and Control System in the State. The rejection was based on the alleged failure to meet the minimum required percentage of subcontracting to local subcontractors.
This decision comes as a great surprise, especially considering that Intralot, Inc. had allocated a significantly higher percentage of the project to local subcontractors than the minimum required.
Moreover, the company had provided the Commission with very detailed clarifications, and the Commission was fully aware of the identity and role of these subcontractors. In fact, the Commission innitially ruled that all participants in the bidding process complied with the requirements of the relevant RFP — something the Commission itself acknowledges.
The Company reserves all its legal rights and intends to pursue every legal remedy available to protect the interests of its shareholders. The bid submitted by Intralot, Inc. is technically sound and by far the most financially advantageous, significantly outperforming the second-best offer. Should it not be accepted, the State of Maryland stands to lose a substantial financial benefit.

ACR POKER INJECTS DAILY DOSE OF THRILL INTO TOURNAMENT SCHEDULE WITH LAUNCH OF DAILY MYSTERY BOUNTY EVENTS

Monster top bounty of 10% of the total prize pool up for grabs starting this weekend
ACR Poker today announced the addition of Daily Mystery Bounty events to its tournament lineup starting this Sunday, August 3rd, delivering unmatched entertainment, thrilling action, and big wins to the tables.
Daily Mystery Bounty tournaments turn traditional bounty formats on their head. Once players are in the money, instead of receiving a fixed reward for eliminating an opponent, players receive a Mystery Bounty Chest revealing a mystery reward, with the top bounty prize being 10% of the total prize pool.
“Mystery Bounties are just pure fun,” said ACR Pro Chris Moneymaker. “You never know what you’re going to get when you knock someone out, it could be some random treasure or a monster bounty that flips your whole tournament. With same-day events, fast action and bounty madness on your daily calendar, it keeps the adrenaline going and makes every hand way more exciting.”
The Daily Mystery Bounty schedule features a range of tourneys and buy-ins, with highlights including the $250K GTD Sunday Funday ($215 buy-in), the $150K GTD Major Mash Up ($66 buy-in), and the $100K GTD Moorman’s Mayhem ($630 buy-in). Starting this Sunday, players can log into the ACR Poker client, open the Tournaments tab, and find the full lineup of Daily Mystery Bounty events in the regular schedule under upcoming events.
And don’t forget, the Mystery Bounty madness continues in ACR Poker’s massive Dual Venom tournaments taking place from Sunday, August 10th to Tuesday, August 26th. Not only are the $2,650 buy-in tourneys offering huge guarantees of $8 million in the NHL event and $2 million in the PLO event, but there are massive bounties on the table for those who knock out their competitors.
In the Venom NLH, eliminating just one opponent could earn a player the top bounty prize of $500,000. While in the Venom PLO, which ties ACR Poker’s biggest Omaha tourney ever, there’s a juicy $200,000 bounty for the taking. And that’s not all, every knockout in both tourneys earns players a minimum bounty of at least $5,000.
