Today was the first day the casino was allowed to open. I ventured to the location of the poker room and it was filled with slot machines. So again corporate casinos do not see poker players as a revenue stream worth supporting. I visited the table games area and as I expected there were not enough player spots open for all those wanting to play. In addition the table minimums have been raised. This was the casino I visited most often over the past 20 years. I don't expect to return since it will be closing in a few months. Unless there is a change in the gaming commission rules.

Announcements from Majestic Star Casino
Hi players!
With concern over the spread of Coronavirus, the State of Indiana is mandating a close of business for Majestic Star Casino and all other casinos from tonight, March 15th through at least March 29th. Shamrock Shenanigans is therefore canceled since it would have been March 28th. MSPT has been postponed as well. Please keep an eye out here and on our Facebook page/Majestic website for updates as we get them concerning reopening. Stay safe everyone. We look forward to seeing you in a few weeks.
