The revellers participated in the Roulette Masters tournament, enjoyed helicopter trips, gambled and dined at Tsogo Sun’s three Gauteng entertainment destinations, Gold Reef City, Silverstar Casino and Montecasino. The adventure ended at Gold Reef City for a prize-giving ceremony, dinner and an overnight stay.
“The high flyers’ adrenalin-packed Tsogo Sun adventure included participating in the Roulette Masters tournament at each destination and enjoying a taste of the newly revamped Gold Reef City. The guest list included some of SA’s hottest celebs, including Maps Maponyane,
Jonathan Boynton-Lee, Katlego Mohauduba and Armand du Plessis,” said Shernese Defreitas of Tsogo Sun strategic public relations.
Roulette Masters was launched on 11 January at Tsogo Sun’s 14 casinos countrywide, with total prizes worth R2.5 million and a guaranteed first prize of R1.5 million.
Qualifying rounds are taking place at the respective casinos until 3
March. The finals be on 5 March, followed by the group semi-finals and the grand finale at Silverstar both of which will be on 19 March.
“This tournament has become a hot favourite among our players over the three years that it has been running; and enabling some of our local celebrities to experience the nail-biting fun, first-hand at different destinations, highlighted the thrills that Roulette Masters offers
every player,” says Steve Hight, Tsogo Sun’s director of gaming.
A separate mini-tournament within Roulette Masters was part of the day’s entertainment, with celebrities competing against each other at the three destinations for the kudos of the top spot – and a Tsogo Sun experience – at the end of the three rounds.
The celebrities met at Gold Reef City before being whisked off to Silverstar in helicopters where they played in the tournament. They then headed on to Montecasino for another round of roulette; and were flown back to Gold Reef City for some fun in the Theme Park. The evening culminated in the finale between four qualifying Roulette Masters finalists plus two additional entrants selected by means of a surprise lucky draw, followed by a prize-giving dinner at Back O’ The Moon Restaurant.
