I have been a very loyal customer of the El Cortez since 2006. Before that a loyal customer of the Plaza. I
Left the Plaza when Jackie sold it and most of his staff returned to El Cortez.
Jacked has since retired and live on the 15th floor. You can't see him playing poker as they have closed the poker room. Greed has consumed the El Cortez. They have cut back many of the things that keep the old timers coming back for years (30 to 40). No more for me!
I have been welcomed back to the Plaza with open arms. Looking forward to long relationship with Plaza. I really feel bad for the great employees of the El Cortez, who have embraced Jackies line of the " customer always comes first". I wish them luck. It is a shame what is going on there. They thing they are the Wynn!
