The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino is offering Player’s Club members a chance to swipe their way into some serious cash by hosting several raffles where players can win upwards of a $1,000,000. To enter all you have to do is swipe your Player’s Club card at the door. For full details and rules check the hotels website  at www.seminolehardrockhollywood.com.

The first of the promotions, the Royal Flush $1,000,000 game show, started July 1. (For full schedule of events click here)

Blackjack fans looking for a game that won’t break the bank, the Hard Rock casino has finally lowered betting limits to $10 on several of its 50-plus tables.

For action junkies craving a summer vacation, room rates at the Hard Rock have considerably dropped, due to the summer slow season, with weekday rates starting at $149.

Dania Jai-Alai is also reaching out to the thrifty gambler with its 50-cent beer and 50-cent trifecta bets every Thursday night. Jai-Alai fans can grab a cheap brew at any one of the frontons’ many bars and place a 50-cent trifecta bet on live Jai-Alai action. The games are slow and the bets are cheap so a smart gambler should be able to enjoy a nice night for a small price (or maybe a big win if you’re lucky).
