Regulators threaten action against casino

The Hard Rock hotel-casino could be facing disciplinary action, a member of the Nevada Gaming Control Board said Wednesday.

Hard Rock Senior Vice President Brian Ogaz came before the Control Board Wednesday for a gaming license, and was recommended for approval. But during the hearing, board member Bobby Siller said the club was in hot water with regulators.

Siller said a show cause order had been issued for the business to show why a complaint should not be filed against it. He didn't say what the problem was, but said there was a perception that the questioned practices were acceptable to management.

Board Chairman Dennis Neilander declined to comment on the cause of the potential complaint.
