Officials from the Illinois Gaming Board will assess Bally’s operations and will deliberate during a “dark period” on Friday. If you happen to win from those play sessions, including a jackpot, we will be processing those jackpots and or winnings in the same manner as if we are live,” Patel said.

So whether you sit down at a blackjack table, or a slot machine…you’ll be playing with live money. Ameet Patel, a senior vice president at Bally’s, said the facility will welcome about 150 guests an hour on each testing day. Pre-approved guests include family, friends and community partners, Bally’s officials said during a tour of Medinah Temple on Tuesday.
