Starz Casino has opened a temporary location at Porto Cupecoy. They are saying it is going to take another year to rebuild the original location. It is open from 11 am to 3 am with tables opening at 7 pm. Daily Herald article here.

Aha! So that answers my question from before about how a new casino could open, if there were no more casino licenses. Being the cheap gambler than I am, when they say they are going after the more upscale gambler, I bet I can't afford the table minimums!! laugh

Asked what differentiates this casino from the others that exist, Moes said: “We would like to consider ourselves a luxury casino. It is small, clean and nicely decorated with beautiful decorations. We have beautiful bathrooms in the casino with nice paintings. We target the higher-end clientele.”

$1 minimum for what? Surely not blackjack?

If roulette table is $1 minimum bet that will be nice.
What is the minimum for a round of three card poker?

Forget the gambling. I want to know more about the beautiful bathrooms and nice paintings. I can see the billboard tag line "Tight slots/High Minimums but come and spend some time in our beautiful bathrooms."
