i think the nevada casino industry's fear of the lottery is overblown. on average, lottery players will win back 50% of the money they spend on the lottery. if a hypothetical nevada state lottery partnered with casinos to let people collect lottery winnings at casinos, a lot of players would turn right around and blow their winnings at the slots or table games. there's potential for them to benefit.

Nevada should have their own state lottery. The argument that the casinos are against a state lottery because it takes money away from them is ignorant and simply stupid. Every Nevada restaurant and bar has tabletop games. Every gas station and convenience store has slot machines. Those take far more $$$ from the casinos than a state lottery every could. The casinos could sell lottery tickets (like any other retailer) and get their guaranteed 6%, which I m guessing is a higher return than so

shy1979, When I worked in Vegas casinos one of my shift bosses told everyone who asked why no lottery in Nevada, The joints want it all .

You be nice! Why do you want to talk to someone else like that? Now I'll have to tell the story about when Colorado got casinos and people left Vegas to go to jobs there and were bask in Nevada asking for their jpobs back because they had left $75 to $200 a day jobs and weren't amking $20 in Coloradio. (tips). This was where ever the first casino opened there.

If you get bored some weekend give a search about Ron Harris, Larry Volk, American Coin Machine Co back in the early 90s. Ron Harris had the ultimate super power when he worked for Las Vegas Control Board by having access to the firmware source code used by all slot machines that operated in Nevada. He got caught when he tried to tackle the keno rng in Atlantic City. Most of these guys usually get caught due to a poor choice of an accomplice or the human element.
