I can't counter this prediction as I see it moving this same way.Prediction... WSOP will be all online and then the have two tables of 4 players
I would love to see a 8 handed table as a new standard poker table.Prediction... WSOP will be all online and then the have two tables of 4 players

Unfortunately yes. That was the one big change I was hoping would come out of this.
I went to Caesar’s thursd night. It was very slow as many casinos are on the strip. Even the local casinos I go to are very slow. Fremont seems to be doing well but I haven’t gone down there to check it out.
its going to be a long road to recovery. Heard the culinary Union is getting ready to sue casinos. That will be the straw that breaks the camels back.
Only 1 more moth till the free money ends, they'll change their tune then.Yeah cause the casinos never win in Nevada courts or Legislature...
Culinary just being self serving dipshits as always. What they would like is for the casinos to stay closed, but for all their members to still get paid. What are the chances that's going to be the outcome?
Not if there is a very real risk of catching it.Only 1 more moth till the free money ends, they'll change their tune then.
So what, ceasars must have 20,000 employees, someone will get it and die, hopefully it's a crotchedy old male blackjack dealer with an attitude.
Let me guess though......... smoking will still be allowed?
Casinos are spineless. God forbid they might inconvenience one of their smoker players. People would adapt. And if they can't, maybe they shouldn't be there.
Hinkley in MN did tooI go to A LOT of casinos all over the country and to date the ONLY reopened casino I've seen that has gone non smoking because of COVID is the Clearwater River Lodge in Lewiston, Idaho.
What's wrong with smoking in casinos?On this front there just might be progress. A lot of thoughts out there why Vegas needs smoking, but one very common one is that having smoking is a draw to those from out of state who can't smoke inside anywhere and drink, let alone gamble. I do think there was quite a bit of this crowd recently before the mask mandate, people who basically wanted to thumb their nose at masks and social distancing. Now that it's gone, that crowd will have to go to tribal casinos. I'm not expecting things to change soon, but it was actually a bit of a move towards being in line with other places and that could eventually lead to change in smoking policy.

amazing how they let smoking ... everyplace else it does not.
Do you really believe that? I dont smoke, never have, but smoking should be allowed if it's legal. people demonize the tobacco co's, the people getting rich on smoking are local and state govts and the medical industry, they could ban it - but they want the money.Second hand smoke kills 41,000 people every year

the people pay and pass on to medicare / insurance down the road that turns into taxes getting higher

My last trip to Vegas. Ceasars pit boss got on to me about cussing at crap table. He said, '1 more fuck, you are gone." I picked up my few remaining chips and left. Cold fucking table. I tried a few DON`T bets, nothing worked.What’s worse are pit bosses and dealers threatening to kick a player off the table for cussing while another is sitting there smoking.
Of course that's all fake, estimates only. Highly subject to manipulation, since there are likely 5-10 times as many undetected as detected cases, there is no real way of gauging true infection rates.Updated June 30, 2020 - 7:16 pm
A COVID-19-tracking website built by the cofounders of Instagram shows Nevada currently has the highest rate of coronavirus transmission in the country.
The rt.live website calculates that each case of COVID-19 in Nevada is resulting in 1.56 new infections.
The finding comes as the state has been reporting record numbers of newly diagnosed cases, an indication that the virus is spreading quickly.

Nevada is an interesting state. I've been tracking the daily numbers and 7 day moving averages. The number of tests performed increased a lot in June versus May, but has flattened in June. Confirmed cases have soared while deaths have plummeted.
As of the latest June 29 report, measuring the 7 day moving averages (MAVG):
# of cases MAVG has been up 18 days and down only 3 in the last 21 days, with the 7 day MAVG up 262% over 21 days..
# of tests performed MAVG has been up 11 days and down 10 in the last 21 days, with the 7 day MAVG up only 6% over 21 days..
# of deaths MAVG has been up only 5 days and down 16 in the last 21 days, with the 7 day MAVG down -60% over 21 days..
contact tracing only works if the virus is very isolated in the community, once it becomes widespread, which it is now with literally million of infections at one time( the vast majority undiagnosed), it's useless.Contact tracing, theoretically, seems to be the right strategy but it also feels unrealistic.

Masks mean nothing, check out south africas chart, or LA's, they've been wearing masks for a long time, months. Weak people are always looking for something to blame, the virus will always win, but we'll get through it.Rampant rumors out there that a lot of Strip casinos closing or going bare bones level operation after the end of the holiday weekend. The impact of letting people run around with no masks is reportedly showing up with a lot of employees getting sick.
