Bally Technologies’ iVIEW Display Manager with Elite Bonusing Suite powered the world’s largest slot machine tournament at Pechanga Resort and Casino in Temecula, California, US, on February 11.
Bally Technologies also earned a Guinness World Record achievement for most slot machines running the same game simultaneously at the same venue. During the duration of the tournament, all participants played Bally’s Hot Shot Blazing 7s as part of DM Tournaments.
The record-setting event featured more than 1,100 players simultaneously competing in a tournament in one location on slot cabinets made by five different slot machine manufacturers.
Over three rounds, 2,885 Pechanga patrons competed throughout the casino floor for their share of more than $100,000 in prizes in the free tournament.
“This is a great example of how server-based technology can create contagious excitement on games from multiple manufacturers and take one of the most popular special events for real players to a whole new level,” said Bally Technologies' senior vice president of strategy and customer consulting. Bruce Rowe.
