Now, to the present: Well, this occasion was the umpteenth time I’ve walked by the former poker room in the past several months. If anything, Green Valley Ranch was an exception. Former staff and regular players can correct me if I’m wrong, but the poker room bucked recent trends here in Las Vegas of poker rooms struggling and the game’s popularity diminishing. It’s been around for several years, and usually had multiple games going. Prior to closure, the poker room appeared to be successful. Ī little background: Due to the COVID shutdown statewide, Green Valley Ranch’s poker room closed sometime in the Spring of 2020. Here’s a photo I took in the mid-afternoon. While visiting the Green Valley Ranch Casino, I walked by what used to be their poker room. Still, I can’t resist the urge to share something I observed this past weekend. My days of being a cheerleader for poker are over and done. “The permanent closure of the Green Valley Ranch poker room (in Henderson) makes no sense at all.” Why is this Casino Space Always Deserted?
