It is a bit outside of Las Vegas, but the military acquired Indian Springs Casino about 20 miles NW of the edge of town because it was too close to sensitive operations at Creech AFB. The casino was mostly irrelevant, though it was the only place to play video UTH in Clark County for a while in 2013. It spread no table games. It was all video tables, slots and VP.
