One of the Atlantic City Hilton's most valued players was a 19-year-old from Brooklyn. This baby whale was sufficiently lucrative to the Colony C(r)apital property that he received a comped stay and qualified as a "rated player."
Better still, A.C. Hilton execs allowed him to keep playing even after they'd been tipped off to his juniority. Nice work! Step right up, Colony, and collect your reward -- a $115K fine from the New Jersey Casino Control Commission. Apparently the Hilton simply took the youngster's word that he was old enough to gamble before handing him the keys to kingdom.
Colony may be able to buy casinos but it sure as shooting can't run 'em. Frank Fertitta III may not have been the best monarch of Station Casinos but, compared to majority owners Colony, it's another case where the one-eyed man is king in the land of the blind.
One sings, the other doesn't (quite): Not only is Ali Spuck's new Liberace Museum show a real value proposition at $15/ticket but, hot damn, she's Spucktastic. As for Charo in Concert: A Musical Sensation, at the Riviera, it's something for everyone but not that much for anyone. Although Charo "goes to 11" on the Camp-o-Meter, gay audiences (and Baby Boomers, too) seem likelier to flock to Spuck.
Bleary blogger: My apologies for the disappointing blogorrhea of late. I've been immersed in a crash course on the crash-and-burn of Russia's casino industry (R.I.P.). Throw in some computer troubles and I'd conservatively estimate I'm three days behind the rest of the gaming world.
