Fertitta Launching ‘Billion Dollar Buyer’ Slots

Tilman Fertitta is launching slot machines based on his TV show ‘Billion Dollar Buyer’ at Golden Nugget properties in Nevada, Atlantic City, Mississippi and Louisiana.

Tilman Fertitta, CEO of Golden Nugget Casinos parent company Landry’s, Inc., will feature slot machines at Golden Nugget properties across the country that are based on his hit CNBC show Billion Dollar Buyer.

The slot machines will be at the Golden Nugget casinos in Biloxi, Atlantic City, Las Vegas and Laughlin, Nevada and Lake Charles, Louisiana, the company announced.

The CNBC reality show features Fertitta traveling the nation to sample new and innovative hospitality products. Small business owners compete to impress the business mogul and land the “deal of a lifetime” partnering with Landry’s as a supplier to Fertitta’s 50-plus restaurants, hotels and entertainment brands.

The new slot machines will give players a chance to strike a deal with the Billion Dollar Buyer. Players have a chance to relive the show and win up to 10,000 credits with the new three-reel, five-line Billion Dollar Buyer Double Jackpot Triple Blazing 7s slot machine.

“I’ve really enjoyed being a part of the show and having an impact on these small businesses,” said Fertitta. “Starting a business is always a gamble, and I had to find a way to commemorate this experience at my casinos. Now players can win big against the Billion Dollar Buyer at any of the Golden Nugget properties.”

His second season of the show returns at 9 p.m. Nov. 22 with 12 new episodes.
