It’s definitely a scam when casino’s are the first to open back up

Poors and degenerates have a place to congregate, good for them.

Being degenerate on my lonesome has been tough, dude. You don't even want to know.

And cause a spike in Covid cases, which will give the little bastard leverage for another stay at home order

Just listened to a TV response from a Mississippi casino owner. Arkansas is also jumping their state, but they seem pretty calm about it and did mention they are probably going to stick with Memorial Day and that all their casinos are speaking with one voice to the Gaming Commission and they will all probably open at 100 percent capacity. Did say he was surprised with the La. opening this soon.

Meanwhile, in Nevada, with the Demo gov., they are still in limbo as to what the hell is going to happen. Looks like Memorial Day or later for most of them, but they are going to go with 50 percent capacity at first. Again, most of the time the casinos there were at or less that capacity before all this started on average.

Someone jumped me with the Las Vegas story and video on what the blackjack/table games will look like. That is a good article and you can see the visual. It's sort of like the windows at your local ghetto gas station/shoot n stab protective glass by the clerk. I'm hearing chips may go away, so they may wind up being collectible (increase in worth).

Still no details on the casinos’ websites.

Casinos do have to wait for the Gaming Control board for further guidance if memory serves me right from the governor’s presser yesterday.

Yeah, the casinos can open up but the local bar that doesn't serve food can't. Arbitrary.

Well off the top of my head, they’re taking in zero money currently. They’ll open the casino with less dealers and other staff at first and take in more money than they are currently and adjust staffing as needed. Therefore, money in > no money in.

I called it in when I saw you people drooling over this. Monday is just a way to delay without backlash. I'm being told they won't reopen until stage 5.

90% of the clientele is old, has a preexisting condition, or both. What could go wrong?

Are you inferring they should get preferential treatment to say restaurants suffering the same disadvantages under these reopening rules?

Are the oxygen tanks strapped to them considered as PPE?
