It's been announced that the WYNN, MGM in Vegas will be closed starting 3/17/2020. What do you think of that?

It'll come back, and probably sooner than people think. People have had the itch since the ancient Romans were running the world.

So far all the casinos up north ( Reno ) are still open. And I’m taking advantage of the low attendance in the Bingo room. Less players the better.

MGM shutting MS casinos. Boyd and Harrah’s and Golden Nugget hanging in there plus all independents. I’m at IP Biloxi where business is slow. SWA flight this morning had 34 passengers en route to MSY.

I would be scoping which bingo rooms are still open. Morning and afternoon sessions are usually filled with a lot of senior citizens. 3 chance or even 4 chance 1000 coveralls might become a play wirh low attendance. Purchase max packs witj highest payouts becomes a play. Dont bother validating, that is not the play. However, I would stay away from Stations. I remembered when the Riviera and Rampart opened a bingo room, it was the best kept secret in Vegas. I was making good money every day. Empty rooms which meant plenty of Bingos for myself.

Does it matter? Less players mean lower prize pool?

j Nope, guaranteed payouts based on the type of cards you purchased. They do have the option of canceling the session due to low turnout, where I play, they need to have at least 10 players. I think we had 13-14 tonight. And yes, I made money.
