twitterGaming Commission accepts fine
Friday, Oct. 22, 1999 | 11:49 a.m.
CARSON CITY -- The state Gaming Commission on Thursday accepted a $125,000 fine to settle a complaint against the Rio Suite hotel-casino in Las Vegas for violating accounting regulations.
The Rio and the state Gaming Control Board, which filed the complaint, reached a settlement in the case. The board said there was no evidence of skimming or that the violations were intentional by the management.
The board alleged that employees of the Rio failed to require identification of players who exchanged chips for large sums of money at a poker tournament. And the transactions were not recorded as required by state regulations.
The casino could have faced a maximum fine of $1.35 million. A representative of the casino turned over the $125,000 check to the commission.
