Casino Night, hosted annually by YPF, is a fundraiser event that allows attendees to gamble in casino-style games like Craps, Blackjack or Roulette with the guidance of trained dealers to win prizes. There’s food, fun, and no-risk gambling!

How does it work? Each attendee receives game chips to start. When game play begins attendees can take a seat at any of the gaming tables available. Players earn grand prize raffle tickets based on gaming success. (The higher dollar amount you have in chips at the end of the night will earn you more raffle tickets! If you run out of chips, you can buy more!)  Prizes are awarded through a “bag raffle,” where players select the prize(s) they want to win by placing their raffle tickets in a receptacle near the prize.

What if I don’t know how to gamble!? If you don’t know the rules of the game, simply ask your dealer and they will walk you through it. The best time to learn games is early in the event, while others are still learning too. Ask your dealer questions about the rules, and the strategy… they want you to win too!
