Gretchen Whitmer’s executive orders, roughly 2,000 furloughed workers of MotorCity Casino Hotel are poised to lose their employer-sponsored health insurance on Aug. 1  The Detroit casinos shut down March 16 as the coronavirus pandemic hit, the Detroit Free Press reports.

Teams Runline Moneyline Total Rockies +0.5 (-110) +120 Over 9.5 (-115) Rangers -0.5 (-110) -105 Under 9.5 (-105) We went 1-1 on our picks for Thursday’s season-opening doubleheader. The Dodgers staged a late rally to hit the over on 8 runs, while the Nationals were beaten 4-1 by the Yankees. That game was shortened by rain, though, so I can still claim that the Nats would’ve ultimately come back in dramatic fashion to win had the game been allowed to reach its full conclusion. Alas. Regardless, we’ve got a full 14-game MLB slate on tap for Friday, which feels good…

Before the 1970s, if anyone were to mention Atlantic City, people would most likely think of two things—the family board game Monopoly and the Atlantic City Boardwalk. Absecon Island had long been used by the Lenni Lenape Native Americans. An Englishman named Thomas Budd was given title to the island by England but only hunters and Native Americans used the land for more than 70 years. The Caucasian hunters occasionally built lodges, but the first permanent Caucasian settlers arrived in 1754. Jeremiah Leeds, whose family had hunted on the island for generations, built a farm named Leeds Plantation on what…

For those who have been counting down the days until sports betting goes live in the state of Tennessee, it looks like the wait is going to be even longer. Tennessee’s sports betting bill was approved over a year ago when Governor Bill Lee allowed it to become law without actually putting his signature on it. It was then set to go live on September 1st, 2020, but it appears that there are some unforeseen holdups that could push it back into early 2021. What’s Causing the Delay? While there’s little doubt that sports betting will have to wait until…

For anyone who’s seen the classic gambling film Maverick or loves hearing about the history of gambling, the strange ongoing tradition of riverboat casinos and the constant throwbacks to their 1800s style that can be found in many land-based casinos can be both intriguing and perplexing. After all, once you realize that a number of states allow gambling only on riverboat casinos (which usually means a craft that’s literally on the river), you start to ask the obvious question: “Can casinos be on land at all? Or do they have to exist solely on water?” Now, for the purposes of…

Las Vegas gamblers commonly believe that casinos only cater to high rollers.

However, the truth is that anybody can enjoy a casino host’s services with enough knowhow. That said, I’ll discuss what exactly what a host does. I’ll also cover how any player…
