What is a Monte Carlo Night?

A Monte Carlo Night (also called Casino Night, Vegas Nights, Las Vegas Night) is an entertainment event with a casino theme.

Monte Carlo Nights are usually tied to a fundraiser to raise money for a specific charitable cause (such as cancer research, community services, youth organizations, etc.) by having each participant purchase a ticket for the event.

Each participant receives a specific amount of fun money that can be used to purchase gaming chips at the gambling tables. The participants engage in various casino games (such as blackjack, roulette, baccarat, craps, poker, wheel of fortune, etc.) in the attempt to accumulate the largest amount of gaming chips. At the end of the evening the participants cash in their winnings for tickets to a Chinese or Chance Auction.

Casino Nights function strictly as entertainment events with no real monetary gambling involved.

Or you could come to AMVIV and play with real money.

Not that we're in competition with MOTD in any way.

The PLAY money is even better - you can experience the fun and excitement of the games all night long and not lose a dime! Plus, the event benefits the Autism Society. A great night for a great cause, it just doesn't get any better than that!!

Wooohooo!

Yeah, you don't lose anything, but you can't win a new car for 15c or $140,000 on a losing 1c spin of a slot machine either.

But there is absolutely no chance of losing the family 'Nest Egg' trying for that new car. And your odds on winning anything at all, will be greater at our casino!

If I could make it to the Dragon, I'd be in on this for sure. Blackjack and poker are legally games of skill, not luck, in Nevada and I've probably had more practice than many of the other MOTD attendees.
