About HotSeat Lotto

HotSeat Lotto™ LLC built the first table game that connects an entire casino floor into one progressive jackpot. Players bet on their physical seat — their seat number and table ID — removing traditional wagers based on card, ball, or dice outcomes. Simple for players, effortless for dealers, and a guaranteed winner every hour.

One hour, one jackpot, four minutes

How to Play

No kiosk swipes, no confusing rules, no unknown payouts. Place a bet during the 4-minute game period and know moments later if you're the next big winner.

1

Entry Period

The casino sets a 4-minute gaming period each hour HotSeat Lotto plays — e.g. 7:00–7:04pm, 8:00–8:04pm.

2

Jackpot Growth

Dealers add wagers and the jackpot grows. Core play — blackjack, craps — continues while the clock runs.

3

4-Minute Fun

Bet that your seat number and table ID will hit the jackpot. $1 gives you 1 entry.

4

Winner

At 0:00, a single seat and table are identified, and the winner is paid from the chip tray.

FAQ

How do I enter?

Hand your wager to the dealer during the 4-minute game period. Your bet is tied to your physical seat number and table ID — no player card, no kiosk.

How much can I bet?

Every $1 wagered earns 1 entry into that hour's drawing. Minimums and maximums are set by each casino.

How is the winner chosen?

A GLI-approved random number generator selects one winning entry — weighted by dollars wagered — the moment the countdown hits 0:00.

How do I get paid?

On the spot. The winning table and seat appear on every tablet, and the dealer pays the jackpot straight from the chip tray.
