Both Kevin Hart<\/strong> and The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas<\/strong> are being sued over a sex tape of Hart doing the nasty<\/a> with actress Monita Sabbag<\/strong> was uploaded onto the Internet. (When in doubt about making a sex tape, don’t.) Hart is being sued for $60 million for negligence, infliction of emotional distress and invasion of privacy. Complained Sabbag, “My pictures and my name have been released with lies written about me. I am not an extortionist. I am not a stripper. I am a recording artist and an actress and I have not broken any laws.” She adds that the recording was made without her knowledge. Sabbag accuses Hart of using the tape to drum up publicity for his “Irresponsible Tour.”<\/p>\n

Hart, a husband and father of three, responded, “I made a bad error in judgment and I put myself in a bad environment where only bad things can happen, and they did. And in doing that I know that I\u2019m going to hurt the people closest to me, who I talked to and apologized to, that would be my wife and my kids.” In bout with karma, he crashed his car and is presently recuperating. Maybe karma saw Night School<\/em><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Let’s face it. What happens here doesn’t<\/em> stay here. It gets posted on YouTube<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

* Las Vegas<\/strong>‘ South Point<\/strong> 400 marks a step forward for betting on NASCAR<\/strong>. In addition to Sin City casinos, wagering on the race will occur at Pearl River Casino<\/strong> in Mississippi<\/strong>, Q Casino<\/strong> in Iowa<\/strong> and Resorts World Catskills<\/strong>. They’ll be looking to boost revenue with side bets during the race, such as green-flag passes, to lay money on things other than who wins or loses\u2014lest one crash ruin a bettor’s day. NASCAR is a laggard among sports in betting and casinos are looking to change that. Expect NASCAR betting to start in earnest on Feb. 16, when the Daytona 500<\/strong> is run.<\/p>\n

* According to InsureMyTrip<\/strong>, one of the airports least likely to cancel your flight is McCarran International<\/strong> in Las Vegas. However, it squeaks in at #10, bested by Reno<\/strong> at #7. And where can you best hope for a cancellation-free experience? Salt Lake City<\/strong>, which just posted another year of “shockingly low cancellations.” They may not have casinos but they’ve got a good airport and a great public library.<\/p>\n

* We’ve all heard of soft openings but what about a soft re<\/em>opening<\/a>? Spring flooding at Cherokee Casino Fort Gibson<\/strong> meant a shutdown. It also socked in the horse track at Cherokee Nation Business<\/strong>‘ Will Rogers Downs<\/strong>. Kudos to the Cherokee, incidentally, for keeping all Fort Gibson employees on payroll during the shutdown and finding jobs for some at other casinos (the Cherokees have a large gaming empire in the Sooner State).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
