This Week in Gambling

Congratulations are in order as Nebraska sports betting has become the latest to join the regulated market! And while we are happy that betting on sports continues to expand, we cannot help but be a little disappointed that wagers will not be allowed online. Governor Pete Ricketts signed the legislation, which not only legalized betting on sports in the state, but also allowed for the expansion of casino gambling. Horse tracks in the state will now be permitted to offer “Las Vegas style” games, which we hope includes slots, craps, roulette, blackjack, and video poker. Initially, the Governor was opposed…

As the world recovers from the pandemic, one sign of normalcy is the return of Las Vegas buffets at the MGM Grand and Caesars Palace. Beginning this week, guests at the MGM Grand will be able to eat to their hearts content, provided it’s between 7 a.m. and 2 p.m. and Thursday through Monday. Their buffet will feature breakfast, lunch and a brunch selection on the weekends. Last week, Caesars got their buffet up and running again.

In a disappointing move, Republican Legislators were able to remove any possibility of Florida online gambling from the states sports betting expansion legislation. However, there is a possibility that the move was necessary to pass the bill and legalize betting on sports. This expansion of gambling in the state also has legislators creating bills to establish the Florida Gaming Control Commission. The deal was made possible via an agreement with the Seminole Tribe. However, it has also been revealed that any form of wagering on sporting events will not be permitted until at least mid-October of this year. Lawmakers said…

Several weeks ago, Governor Steve Sisolak promised his state would be fully open by June 1st. Now, Nevada regulators confirm that all restrictions in place for the Coronavirus will end that date. The Nevada Gaming Control Board has confirmed that at midnight, June 1st, “…none of Nevada’s counties will retain social distancing or occupancy limitations that would apply to a gaming licensee.” The timing of this announcement could have been better, as a big three-day weekend is coming for Las Vegas. And the 1st of June will come right at the end (Tuesday) of the Memorial Day holiday. The Control…

As post-pandemic recovery sweeps over Nevada, at least three Station Casinos remain closed indefinitely. Texas Station, Fiesta Rancho and Fiesta Henderson remain shuttered, and they don’t plan to open anytime soon.

Station Casinos cited the “uncertain economic conditions” across the state associated with the tourism industry. However, they have opened…
