The Sahara's seven-table poker room will close on Nov. 16 to create more slot machines, reflecting a broader trend of poker room reductions on the Strip.
General manager Paul Hobson stated that the revamped slot area will feature dedicated banks for new test games, indicating a shift in casino offerings amid declining poker interest.
The closure of the Sahara poker room follows a trend of shut-downs across Las Vegas, highlighting challenges faced by poker venues and changing preferences among gamblers.
Recent poker room closures have affected other major locations, like Atlantic City and Boston, where several establishments have downsized or eliminated poker options post-pandemic.
