Maverick Gaming to set up a poker room in Tropicana

A privately owned company, Maverick Gaming, which is situated in Kirkland, Washington, has managed to successfully ink a deal with Bally’s Corp, which operates the Tropicana. The idea behind this is to set up a gaming poker room on the property. Maverick, as an entity, takes pride in the fact that it is currently the owner of four commercial casinos in Nevada, as well as three casinos in Colorado. Add to that twenty-three card rooms in Washington.  

According to the Chief Marketing Officer of Maverick, Jeremy Weinstein, there will be made available two poker tournaments on a daily basis, and they come with the lowest ever rake, which translates into the commission that is doled out to the concerned Casino. 

The setting up of the poker room is slated for sometime in the coming month. 

As per the deal, the poker room will be situated somewhere close to Bally’s broadcasting studio on the premises of the Tropicana. The people who were responsible for seeing the deal through were the network showrunners, along with the producers, Houston Curtis and Rick Mahr, of the much sought-after television series and Bally’s Big Bet Poker live stream. 

As per the Vice president and General manager of Tropicana, Las Vegas, Arik Knowles, it is a good feeling to be tied up with Maverick Gaming and provide the opportunity for poker players, both seasoned as well as nouveau, to be exposed to some high-level poker tournaments. 

Where the poker room is concerned, it will be coming with No Limit Hold ‘Em games having blinds amounting to $1, and in the case of bigger blinds, it will be $3. The rightful owners of Tropicana are the Gaming and Leisure Properties, which is, in actuality, a real estate investment trust. The Casino, however, is run by Providence. Of late, the company came out with the official declaration that they have agreed to sign up with the Oakland Athletics Major League Baseball team, which will, in all probability, be taking the initiative of constructing a 30,000 seater baseball stadium which will be coming at the cost of $1.5 billion. In that case, Bally’s has plans to construct a resort. At the present moment in time, the entity is involved in the building of a casino in Chicago.
