  1. Thanks for the pictures!

  4. Maloof is only 2% owner . He has very little say in the Casino. I noticed nothing special. u can do as well or better at Southpoint and yes RED ROCK!

  5. Cantor Gaming, what a joke! They will be out of business in three years. Bad odds equal no action.

  6. I went and played poker their, but all that was at the table, was a bunch of undercover cops. Talking loud and annoying everyone.
