The Chronicle Herald from Halifax, Canada is running a daily contest where participants can win a 1-night trip to the local Casino Nova Scotia.

Casino Nova Scotia has over 600 slots and table games, ranging from Blackjack to Baccarat and from Slots to Poker. All the table games, except Roulette, are played with what are called ‘Value Chips’. Those chips can be purchased from the dealer at any table. The player simply put his money on the non-betting area of any table and when asked, the dealer will give the appropriate amount in chips. Those chips can be used at any table in the Casino Nova Scotia.

For the roulette, Value Chips can be used or at each roulette table, multi-colored chips can be purchased and they are only usable at the given table. When leaving, they must be exchanged for Value Chips.

The Casino Nova Scotia offers a very nice poker room featuring 8 tables with Texas Hold’em.

There are a couple of restaurants available on the facility, including the Paradise Buffet. Asian, Mexican and Carribean buffets are offered on different week days and during the night.

On site entertainments include at least two main show rooms with special events and of course, nightly ones. Purchasing tickets in advance is the way to go. One of the show room, the Harbourfront, has daily shows past 9pm each Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

There is a Premiere Club where premium guests can receive complimentary services based on their level of play. Rewards may vary depending on the type of gaming being engaged.

The casino opens from Monday to Wednesday from 10 am to 4 am and from Thursday at 10 am up to Monday 4 am. During that latest period, the casino is open 24 hours.

The contest held by the Chronicle Herald will last until July 31st 2009. Each day any person above 19 years old will have a chance to enter an on line entry by going to the Chronicle Herald website. By the deadline a winner for the month will be selected. The prize comprises a 1-night trip package to the Casino Nova Scotia.

Each 1-night trip package includes the following:
