Nevada gaming regulators have accused Resorts World casino of accommodating illegal gambling activities, tarnishing the reputation of the renowned establishment. The Nevada Gaming Control Board issued a formal complaint against the casino, alleging that they have been allowing patrons to engage in illegal sports betting and unauthorized wagering on virtual slot machines.
The complaint, filed on Monday, highlights several instances where casino employees turned a blind eye to illegal gambling activities taking place on the premises. The Gaming Control Board alleges that Resorts World failed to properly monitor and restrict access to certain areas of the casino where unauthorized gambling was taking place.
In one particularly egregious case, a group of high-rolling patrons were caught placing bets on virtual slot machines that had not been approved by the Gaming Control Board. The casino was also accused of allowing guests to place bets on sporting events without following the proper protocols for accepting sports wagers.
The complaint further alleges that Resorts World failed to take adequate measures to prevent money laundering and other illicit activities from taking place within the casino. The Gaming Control Board stated that they have uncovered evidence of suspicious financial transactions and questionable conduct by certain casino employees.
Resorts World has vehemently denied the allegations made by the Nevada Gaming Control Board, stating that they have always complied with state gambling regulations and have never knowingly allowed illegal activities to take place on their premises. The casino has pledged to cooperate fully with the ongoing investigation and has vowed to take swift action against any employees found to be involved in misconduct.
In response to the complaint, Resorts World has announced that they will be conducting a thorough internal review of their policies and procedures to ensure that they are in full compliance with all state gambling regulations. The casino has also stated that they will be implementing additional training for their employees to prevent any future instances of illegal gambling from occurring.
Despite the controversy surrounding Resorts World, the casino remains open for business and has assured patrons that they can continue to enjoy a safe and secure gambling experience. The Nevada Gaming Control Board has stated that they will continue to monitor the situation closely and will take further action if necessary to ensure that the integrity of the state’s gambling industry is maintained.
