If Encore Boston Harbor was to reintroduce poker right now, as some of its guests have demanded, it would require the casino to close other table games because it cannot find enough people to hire as dealers, an executive told the Massachusetts Gaming Commission on Thursday.
The state s two casinos Encore Boston Harbor and MGM Springfield resumed mostly normal operations in late May without reintroducing poker and the Gaming Commission has taken notice of the 10-fold increase in complaints about the game s absence in the Bay State. The casinos have both said they will make decisions about the future of poker by the end of the year.
