Millionaire Party (poker)

The Poker room is in Sylvan Lake, MI, they provide everything. They even help you get the license if you have never done a raffle, bingo or Michigan pull tabs. It takes 6-8 weeks to get the license but there is almost 10 wks to this date. 2 volunteers have to be on hand because you run the money part.
I think this will be a great way for Ada to feed all the dogs this winter and have some left over.
I am attaching the Millionaire Party Summary for you to read:
Millionaire Party Summary
Thank you for your inquiry regarding holding your fundraiser event at Red Rock Card Room.
Enclosed with this summary is a price breakdown sheet for us supplying a State Licensed Millionaire Party for your organization as well as a link to the various qualification requirements for each Michigan Lottery Commission organization designation. We prefer to meet with the person that will be filling out and sending in the applications in person to assure that all the paper work goes in to the State correctly to prevent unnecessary delays in the licensing process. At this meeting, we are also able to show your organization our room, equipment and go over the details of how we will make your fundraiser the success that you want and expect it to be.
Overview of Millionaire Party Process
Requirements for Charitable / Non Profit Organizations: Your organization will obtain a license to hold a millionaire party. A Millionaire Party License entitles your organization to four (4) consecutive nights of charitable gaming. Each qualified organization is allowed to hold four (4) Millionaire Parties per calendar year. We prefer to do all four of your parties in consecutive order (16 days in a row) which allows us to offer satellite tournaments throughout your event to a well publicized tournament on your final day. This will be your party and your volunteers (who are allowed to be compensated $50.00 per day) will handle all of the monetary transactions, chip exchanges, chip redemptions, as well as fill out the necessary paperwork required by the Michigan Lottery Commission. You will be required to have two (2) volunteers on hand at all times during the event(s). We will make ourselves available to train your volunteers both before, during and after each day to ensure that all paperwork is properly maintained and filled out. Note: Qualification Requirements for each category of Charitable / Non Profit Organizations are included as links at the end of this summary. If you have any questions regarding which category your organization may qualify as, please feel free to call and we will assist in making a determination.
What to Expect from Red Rock Lounge, LLC as your supplier: Red Rock Lounge, LLC will provide; all on sight advertising, the card room, all casino quality poker and blackjack tables, comfortable player chairs, cashiers booth, fully custom and secure casino grade cash game chips, fully custom and secure tournament chips, computerized tournament software and monitors, a strong player base for all games, well trained dealers for all games, plastic playing cards, all table buttons, blackjack shoes and discard trays, all paperwork for the Lottery Commission, lock boxes and personnel to monitor the poker tables and tournaments to assure everything runs smoothly.
How Revenues are generated: Revenues will be generated in three ways; poker cash game rake (10% of each pot with a maximum rake of $6.00 per hand), tournament entry fees (20% of tournament buy in amount) and Blackjack* revenues (table wins or losses) - *Blackjack is played according to Charity Blackjack Rules.
Anticipated Revenue Estimations and Examples: Although many factors contribute to the actual amount that your organization may make from a Millionaire Party, the following estimate based on past experience and anticipated player counts should address anticipated revenues for a Millionaire Party supplied by Red Rock Lounge, LLC. There are numerous factors that will effect what the total rake for each night will be. In a typical situation, we would expect a minimum average of 3.5 cash tables to run per hour throughout the duration of our party hours (one or two tables during the first hour, expanding to 5 tables during our peak times from 7-11pm or so, and winding up the night to closing time with 2-3 tables). Many things will determine the rake per hour including; players speed, amount of each pot, player disputes, using up your $15,000.00 allotted monies, etcetera. In an ideal situation a dealer could deal 30 hands per hour and rake the full $6 per hand (this is highly unlikely due to the preceding factors). Each day will certainly be different, just from the nature of poker being different each and every hand. Some hands will have nearly all the players in the hand all the way until the end (which is a slow hand with a big rake) and other hands may end up with very few players in to the end and small betting (which results in quick hands with a relatively small rake) and still other hands will end up with all the players folding and there not even being a flop (which is very quick and no rake at all) and every type of hand in between. My experience and projections suggest that we will average about 25 hands per hour with an average rake of $5 per hand. This would bring an expected average of $125.00 per hour per table. If this figure is expanded to the projected 3.5 cash game tables running per hour over the 9 hour period, gross revenues from cash games would be approximately $3,937.50 per night at the above projected numbers. If 4 sit and go tournaments were added per night at $50 buy in that would generate another $400.00 per night ($500.00 total entries X 20% entry fee X 4 tournaments) bringing a total to $4.437.50 per night. Expenses would be approximately $300.00-$350.00 (plus $60.00 - $70.00 food allowance) for dealers and $100.00 for your own volunteers. If you have 1 or 2 blackjack tables, the proceeds from that are almost impossible to guess, but utilizing charity blackjack rules, the tables will undoubtedly show some profits (possibly considerable) and that would add an additional $50.00 (plus food allowance) in cost for that dealer for each Blackjack table. These are only estimates and what actually happens will be solely determined by that days player count, which variations of poker is popular that night, whether there are abnormally slow players at the tables, how soon your $15,000 chips allotment is depleted, how many players win and cash out early (removing chips from play) and several other unanticipated factors. I would say that $20,000 should be an expected minimum goal for the entire 16 days. A realistic anticipated goal, based upon the above projections would create proceeds to your organization of approximately $32,000.00 for your 16 day event. And of course, proceeds to your organization could also be higher than that. Once again, these figures are based on realistic evaluations of hands per hour and rakes but anything can happen on any given day for the better or the worse.
Red Rock Lounge, LLC Compensation for Supplier Services: Red Rock Lounge, LLC will be compensated at the end of each Millionaire party at a rate of 50% of gross revenues minus expenses and your millionaire party license fees. This is further outlined and explained as well as the wording of the “Charity Gaming Rule” in the Red Rock Lounge, LLC pricing guide included with this Summary.

Thank you Shedevil for thinking of SCD. I have a few questions though. Where is Sylvan lake? How much money would SCD have to front to get started? How many volunteers would we need to do something like this?
By the way how is Jenna doing? I think we need some pictures of that cute little girl!
You have to pay for your license fee of $50 per day for 4 consecutive nights 50*4=$200 you get 4 licenses so $ 800.00. Well for the volunteer part just 2 people a night from SCD to run the cash room, the poker room has us volunteer dealers. And Sylvan Lake is in Oakland County between Pontiac and West Bloomfield on Orchard Lake Road and corner of Middlebelt.
Jenna is doing great she is Frost's dog, they love to run and play I have tried to do the pics but my resolution is too high for the site.

So if you do it for 8 days you need to send in 2 applications with 2 separate checks of $200.00 each.
I know that here will bring in money, they now have both the waterford and west bloomfield school district. They just got DMC from detroit. These guys have the upper clientele not the normal tavern poker players these guys usually play at the casinos.
