Slot World Joins the Family
Slot World Casino on Hwy 50 East in Carson City reopens at 8 AM today as part of our “family” that also includes Bodines Casino in Carson
City, the Carson Valley Inn in Minden and Sharkey’s Casino in Gardnerville. Slot
World underwent a complete transformation over the last 6 – 7 weeks with just
about everything demolished and rebuilt from the air handling equipment, to the
floors, walls, ceiling, restrooms, casino, kitchen, restaurant and everything
in between! Colorful lighting is evident
throughout the casino bringing life and energy. A large bar in the center of the
casino provides a gathering place to meet friends, enjoy a cocktail or watch
sports on one of the many HDTV flat-screens. “Betsy’s Big Kitchen” is open from 6 a.m.
to 10 p.m. serving breakfast, lunch and dinner choices plus weekend dinner specials.
Come on down and check it out . . . and be sure to follow, like and share the Slot World Facebook page.
Check Out These Interesting Tidbits
- Our owner Mike Pegram has a horse scheduled to run in the $500,000 Clark Handicap at Churchill Downs Friday – check with the crew at our Race and Sports Book for more information.
- Remember the boisterous Bunko for Breast Cancer event held in our Valley Ballroom last month? The evening of costumes, revelry and bunco play raised over $22,500 for the efforts of the Carson Tahoe Cancer Resource Center bringing the total to over a quarter of a million dollars raised by our community through this GE sponsored event over the last 14 years.
- Sunday is National Cake Day and we innocently thought this would be a good opportunity to feature one of the many cakes made in our bakery. We went down to the bakery yesterday morning we were politely told by our bakers in unison that unless it was about a pie this week, they didn’t have time for us. After bringing our cake level up to par on Monday, they started concentrating on baking the pumpkin pies necessary to handle all of the Thanksgiving specials served in Katie’s, the many pumpkin pie orders placed in advance by our customers at our Katie’s bakery counter, and the double-digit dozens of pies needed to complete the Turkey Dinners to Go we will be distributing on Thursday morning.
- Tuesday is National French Toast Day and with the opening of Betsy’s Big Kitchen at Slot World we now have four locations at which you can enjoy French toast on Tuesday morning – or any morning. Joining Betsy’s (Texas toast base) are Katie’s (our own baked bread) at the Carson Valley Inn, the Jackpot Café at Sharkey’s Casino (brioche bread) and the restaurant in Bodine’s Casino (Texas toast base).

- Monday Night Football Grid in our poker room every week – we start with four $40 prizes each week and add in any unclaimed prizes from the previous week. There’s been a scarcity of winners present lately so this coming Monday we’re giving away $144 for each of the first three quarters and the final score . . . that’s over $575! Earn entries during live poker games this week ‘til all squares are claimed.
- Place Your Bet: Place your bets on Pro and College Football, NHL Hockey, Pro and College Basketball, and Horse Racing. Futures on the board include winners for the 2018 Super Bowl, 2018 NCAA Basketball and Football Championships, 2018 NBA Championship and 2018 NHL Stanley Cup.
