Its not totally illegal. Why else do we have so many places with video lottery and lotto sales, as well as Powerball and Keno??? casinos on the other hand, we don't have that outside the Native American reservations

Good points....Nevada did also shut down all "non essential business's" to include bars...where the lottery machines are. I guess convenience stores are safe for now.

Finally, I can walk into a Las Vegas Casino and not lose money.

Those are Indian reservations ( they are sovereign nations ) I don't believe they have to do anything a State or Federal Gov. says.

The tribal casinos around here are closed on their own accord

Not even remotely surprising what went down in the Silver State, considering social distancing is one of the few tools public health has available at this point. But, man, that industry has gotten to be hurting bad.

At least two (Spirit Mountain and Seven Feathers) are already closed down voluntarily, in Oregon.

Agreed. The ban on casinos in most states is spectacularly stupid. The state has no problem denying adults the right to chose how they seek their entertainment, but, wait, if it enriches their own coffers with games of chance with terrible odds, why that's just fine.

Meanwhile here in Oregon. Intel keeps chugging along. They are also sitting on a metric bubblegum ton of PPE I doubt they will donate to the medical field

I wonder how much revenue the state of Nevada collects from casinos each day? Their budget must be in trouble.

Tribal, last I knew was federal regulated. The state has no say.

It has to be seriously impacting their bottom line. Tourism is their largest employer.

The Snoqualmie Casino in North Bend is closed at 2:00AM yesterday I believe. My GF goes up every so often to that casino.

In addition to the two I mentioned above in Oregon, Chinook Winds is also closed now.
