There won’t be a poker room, but there will be poker. And there will also be sports betting and plenty of food at Golden Nugget Danville, which is slated to open in about three months.
General Manager Juris Basens said there will be plenty for visitors to do.
“We’ll have the slot machines; we’ll have roulette, craps, blackjack and a variety of what they now call carnival games, which are different kinds of specialty games like ultimate Texas hold ’em,’ baccarat, three-card stud, pai gow poker and all those types of games,” Basens said. “Dealers deal cards, but they’re different versions of blackjack or poker; they’re not traditional versions. They’re dealt by a live dealer and played with chips.”
Basens said there will not be a poker room, although video poker will be available on the casino floor.
