A blackjack dealer at Horseshoe Casino Baltimore collapsed on the gaming floor in April 2023, was rushed into cardiac intensive care, and later needed surgery, according to Casino.org — only to find himself fired once he tried to come back to work. Now Caesars Entertainment and the casino have agreed to pay him $150,000 to settle a federal disability discrimination lawsuit.
The dealer, identified as Quann Massey, worked at Horseshoe Casino Baltimore before his heart attack forced him into extended medical leave, according to Gambling News. As reported by the outlet, Massey eventually asked his employer about returning under an alternate schedule with job modifications and accommodations.
