Las Vegas Casinos Reopen for Bookings Amid COVID-19 Pandemic


Las Vegas casinos are reopening for bookings despite the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. All casinos in Las Vegas were ordered to close for a month by the governor of Nevada. However, hotels in Las Vegas, such as Caesars Palace, are already taking bookings starting from April 17.

The World Series of Poker (WSOP) 2020 is considering postponement or cancellation due to COVID-19. The organizers of WSOP 2020 will make a decision about the possible postponement or cancellation of the series in May. Daniel Negreanu, a legendary poker player, predicted that WSOP 2020 will not happen in the summer. He also suggested that the series might take place in the fall if the pandemic slows down.

As of the article's publication, there are over 215,000 confirmed COVID-19 cases in the United States, with more than 5,100 fatalities. The high number of cases in the U.S. raises concerns about the optimism of hotel owners in Las Vegas regarding the reopening of casinos.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
