Everi's TournEvent of Champions begins

14 May 2019

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Presented by Everi and now in its seventh year, the TournEvent of Champions and The Million Dollar Event is the gaming industry’s premier slot tournament featuring a championship round with $1.3 million in total cash prizes. TournEvent of Champions kicks off its campaign again this month in search of the best slot tournament players in North America to compete in the national championship The Million Dollar Event in October for a shot to win the grand prize of $1 million.

“We are excited to kickoff our seventh annual TournEvent of Champions campaign which will again culminate in Las Vegas with a $1 million grand prize for one lucky slot player,” said Jeannie Moss, promotions manager, at Everi. “Since its start as statewide slot tournaments in California and Washington in 2012 with only 30 participating casinos, our goal has been to create the premier slot tournament in North America and memorable experiences for all of our players and finalists. Since then, we have grown the program to more than 100 casinos across the U.S. and Canada participating on an annual basis. This success isn’t possible without the support of our casino partners and generous sponsors and we look forward to this year’s campaign.”

Each winning casino representative will receive $800 towards airfare to Las Vegas for themselves and a guest; three night/four-day hotel accommodations; transportation to and from McCarran International Airport; food and beverage credit; and, most importantly, a seat at The Million Dollar Event. The championship event will take place on 16 October 2019, at the XS Nightclub in the Wynn Las Vegas Resort. Players will have a cheerleader by their side cheering them on in The Money Man, Everi’s iconic brand ambassador and the official mascot for TournEvent of Champions.

TournEvent of Champions is a unique collaboration between Everi and its top casino partners in North America to bring thrilling competition and unbelievable excitement to casinos through a patented slot tournament campaign. With so much at stake and more than $6.4 million in total cash prizes awarded since its inception in 2012, it’s no surprise why TournEvent of Champions has become the most exciting slot tournament event on the planet.
