Nevada gaming regulators tentatively approved Colorado-based casino operator Century Casinos’ acquisition of the Nugget Casino Resort in Sparks, which would mark the company’s entry into the state.
Century executives told the Gaming Control Board during a 90-minute hearing in Las Vegas Wednesday the Nugget would be the company’s largest resort and would be considered its flagship property.
“We will introduce a referral program for our customers at our U.S. properties that will entice them to come [to the Nugget],” Century Executive Vice President Andreas Terler said.
The control board’s unanimous recommendation will be considered by the Nevada Gaming Commission on March 23 in Las Vegas.
