There’s still time to punch your ticket to Hollywood.

Qualifiers for the Hard Rock Bet $5,000,000 Slots Tournament continue Monday, November 2, and this round brings some twists. New Jersey, Michigan and Florida players all have chances to qualify.

Every seat leads to The Guitar Hotel at Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood on Saturday, December 12, where $5 million in guaranteed prizes will be on the line and first place collects $1,000,000.

Here’s how to qualify:

New Jersey and Michigan: L&W Bonus Spins Sweepstakes

Light & Wonder takes the spotlight in the next two-week window for New Jersey and Michigan. The sweepstakes opens at midnight on Monday, November 2, and closes at 11:59 p.m. ET on Sunday, November 15. It is open to eligible players, so look for it in the app’s Promotions tab on the Hard Rock Bet Online Casino app.

The biggest change this time around is the number of seats: a total of 100 tournament invites will be handed out.

Ways to Earn Entries

  • Free entry: Opting in during the window gets you started with one entry.
  • L&W slots: One entry for every $5 in cash wagers on slots from Light & Wonder and its studios, including Bally, WMS, Shuffle Master, Lightning Box, NextGen, Barcrest and ELK.
  • Featured slots: Two entries for every $5 in cash wagers on Huff N’ Even More Puff Grand, Huff N’ Puff Haunted Mansion, Dancing Drums Tower, Super Hot Flaming Pots and Quick Hit Link 888.

Entries are unlimited, but nothing you play before opting in will count toward your total.

Prizes Up for Grabs

10,000 players will be picked at random once the window ends, and every prize comes as bonus spins on Huff N’ Even More Puff Hard Hat Edition. The top 100 winners land a Slots Tournament invite and 100 bonus spins at $0.60 each. The remaining 9,900 winners receive 50 bonus spins at $0.20 each.

Expect your spins within 72 hours after the window closes. They expire after seven days, and winnings from them are credited as cash. Players are limited to one bonus spins prize per window.

Florida: Week 5 $400K Pool Play & Get

The Week 5 qualifier in Florida uses wager tiers. The $400K Pool Play & Get rewards Real Money Games powered by Past Motor Racing players based on their total cash wagers from midnight on Monday, November 2, through 11:59 p.m. ET on Sunday, November 8.

How the Tiers Work

  • Opt in first: Join the promotion in the Hard Rock Bet app before placing your first wager, or your play won’t count.
  • Cash wagers only: Wagers made with Games Bonus, Bonus Cash or Bonus Rounds do not count toward your total.
  • One tier per player: You are paid from the highest tier you reach, not from every tier along the way.
  • Even splits: Each tier’s pool is divided equally among all players who reach it.

There is no cap on top-tier seats. Every player who reaches $500,000 earns a tournament invite. Rewards arrive within 72 hours after the week ends.

Earned an Invite? Act Fast

You have 72 hours after the first notification attempt to accept your spot, confirm you can make it and finish verification. If you miss that window, the seat can be passed to an alternate. Players can only hold one tournament seat, but qualifying again still gets you the prize that comes with the invite.

Don’t Let the Next Window Slip By

Opt in to your state’s qualifier from the Promotions tab in the Hard Rock Bet app before you start playing. That one tap is all it takes to get in the running for a seat in Hollywood this December.
