12 Aug 2020
The Nevada Gaming Control Board is to fine a Vegas casino. The Sahara Las Vegas was found to have four breaches of emergency health and safety guidelines issued because of the novel Coronavirus outbreak.
In early June 2020, the Board received a complaint that the Sahara, operated by the Muruelo Group, had been allowing more players on the slot floor than permitted in the state’s policies for reopening after closures that lasted from mid-March.
Following this, the Board witnessed three instances of customers at tables or machines where they were not playing and one meeting that exceeded the limit on meeting sizes.
Also, Vegas casino news from the Tropicana, where a scheduled reopen may be delayed. The CEO of Tropicana’s parent company on Thursday hinted that the Las Vegas resort might not open as planned on September 1st saying that there’s a possibility the opening of the property could be delayed based on market conditions.
