Poker players are starting to look each other in the eye again.

The plexiglass dividers that have been a staple of Las Vegas poker rooms during the coronavirus pandemic have come down this week at several casinos after they were approved to return to 100 percent capacity by the Nevada Gaming Control Board.

The Orleans on Saturday became the latest poker room to remove its plexiglass.

β€œIt is down as of early this morning!” Orleans poker room manager Garrett Okahara said via email.
