An Assembly panel has voted for a casino regulation measure that left out a business-expansion amendment sought by a company that led the 2005 effort to legalize hand-held, wireless gambling devices in Nevada.
The Judiciary Committee voted for a bill sought by the state Gaming Control Board, minus changes sought by Phil Flaherty of Cantor Fitzgerald L-P which would have made clear that licensed wireless device companies could run race and sports book operations.
The change was opposed by Leroy's Race and Sports Book and the Club Cal Neva, which combined have about 100 legal race-sports betting operations around the state, and which also have existing casinos as their base, in line with existing state rules.
Control Board Chairman Dennis Neilander also expressed concerns about the Cantor amendment, saying he didn't want the Control Board bill weighted down with other changes. |
