Nevada Gaming Commission approves changes to casino gaming salon rules

Regulation

The Nevada Gaming Commission voted 5–0 to approve changes to gaming salon rules, including removing the $500 minimum slot wager and lowering the entry deposit or credit-line threshold from $300,000 to $20,000. Casinos may set their own slot thresholds with Gaming Control Board approval, salons may offer poker, and guests may stay for up to 24 hours after a patron leaves; Commissioner George Markantonis warned of money-laundering risks.

The changes alter salon access and operating conditions for Nevada casinos, while raising compliance concerns noted by a commissioner.
