The Treasure Island casino-hotel located at Las Vegas Strip has taken a though decision about their poker rooms.
The casino has been passed for a hard time with their poker rooms financially speaking, so after looking that it wasn’t profitable they decided to close the seven-table poker room without any plans to reopen it.
The closure leaves the Las Vegas Strip area with 17 poker rooms. There are now 63 rooms statewide, according to data from the Nevada Gaming Control Board.
Treasure Island’s move to close its room comes during a time of growth for the Nevada poker market. Over the 12 months prior to July 1, 2018, Nevada casinos raked $120 million from poker, up 2.1 percent year-over-year. That figure includes online poker.
Is worth to mention that two years ago the casino announced their plans for a subscription-based poker site. Previously, Treasure Island was looking to offer real-money online poker in Nevada.
