News in Las Vegas

this from Sunday's Las Vegas Review Journal:

Missouri Gaming Commission Director Gene McNary assured gamblers that two casinos owned by bankrupt Herbst Gaming will continue operating as they have. The Las Vegas-based company is in a prepackaged restructuring.

McNary said the Terrible's St. Jo Frontier in St. Joseph and the Terrible's Mark Twain in LaGrange are "vital to their communities."

As part of its bankruptcy deal, Herbst Gaming will give up control of its 15 casinos, including the three Primm casinos and Terrible's Casino.
