    One less place to gamble in Las Vegas

    Now there's one less place to gamble in Las Vegas. Lucky Dragon shuts down casino and restaurants.

    https://www.yahoo.com/finance/m/fcb3...-one-less.html

    Visitors to Las Vegas have one less place at which to play and eat. The Lucky Dragon Hotel & Casino on Thursday morning abruptly closed its casino and restaurants. The property’s boutique hotel, with roughly 200 rooms, remains open. A spokesman said that a tea bar continues to operate, and that a kitchen is providing room service to guests. A news release late Thursday morning noted the property “is beginning the process of repositioning and, in doing so, will have a reduction in staff.” The statement also said the closure of the casino and restaurants was temporary, but did not elaborate. Hotel executives declined to comment about the closures to The Times.

    Not enough cash on hand I'm guessing.

    No-one shuts the doors on built in house edge to continue the tea room.

    This was built to cater to rich Chinese. There was an article in the LVRJ recently about their fail operation.
