Louisiana allows riverboat casinos to operate on land

May 23, 2018

On Wednesday a law was signed by Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards that would allow for larger onshore gaming floors for riverboat casinos. Under Senate Bill 316, the casino gaming floor can be moved nearly a quarter mile or 1,200 feet from the berth of the riverboat.

27 years ago gambling was legalized in the state. There are currently 15 casino riverboats. New Orleans had 1 casino built on land. There are also 3 tribal owned casinos.

An application will need to be submitted to the state Gaming Control Board before approval can be given that would allow the riverboat operations to move on land. It is estimated that it will be close to six months before the applications begin to be submitted.

States with similar laws are being studied to help determine the what the new guidelines should be. In the next few months the board will need to write the regulations for the application process, financing, and other numerous details. These regulations will also need some time after that before they can be given final approval. There must be public hearings and written responses given first before they can go into effect.

Under the previous law, riverboat casinos could only have 30,000 square feet of gaming space. They could also only have gaming positions upto 2,365. The gaming position has to do with how many people could play at a table game or seats for slot machines. SB316 will allow for a clear definition of the gaming positions are counted.

In 1991 15 riverboats were approved for casino gaming licenses. All gaming was to take place while the boat sailed. In 2001 the law changed and allowed for the boats to stay at their berth. However, it was required that the casino floor was placed over the water. Mariners had to be on staff. Also, the paddle wheel had to be operational.

Whenever a change to the current gaming law was made, the Gaming Control Board set new requirements for casinos to make investments in new amenities for guests. This included adding new restaurants and spa facilities. The new law would require casinos to continue with this trend if they want to move their gaming operations on land. It could be upwards to $600 million in a new building and design.

It was reported that in 2017 $419.2 million was raised in taxes from riverboat casinos. $371 million in taxes was raised from gas and oil severance.

Harrah's New Orleans loses license extension

May 21, 2018

On Friday the regular session for the Louisianan Legislature was adjourned. A deal was not settled for the gaming license for the proposed extension project for the Harrah's New Orleans. The proposed project will cost $350 million to complete. The casino is owned by Caesars Entertainment. A conference committee did not approve the bill causing a new obstacle for the project.

The casino is the only land based gaming facility in the state. The company is seeking to extend their gaming operations for 30 years with no bids. The current contract is scheduled to expire in 2024. This is six years in the future.

The company maintains that allowing for them to extend their license, they would be able to create more opportunity for economic growth in the area. However, if the license is not allowed to be bid on then opponents believe the city and the state would not have a chance to receive the most beneficial deal.

Lawmakers decided to reject the proposal since at this time there is no other alternative. A comparison can not be made to decide what the best option would be.

Under the proposal, construction jobs would create the need for 600 people. After construction, 500 permanent jobs would need to be filled. The city would also have an increase of tax revenue that would be in the millions.

2019 is an election year for Louisiana. It is possible that another attempt by the casino could be made then.

Louisiana is known for its food, music, and culture. You may think of New Orleans as the center of the state with its annual Mardi Gras celebration and packed cobblestone streets. But other hubs in the ‘Bayou State’ include the capitol Baton Rouge, Lafayette, Shreveport, and the city of Lake Charles.

Although gambling is legal to a degree in most of the state some of the casinos you’ll find on this list are in lesser known cities. Some of the best treasures are hidden among the states rice fields and blue highways.

A unique mix of French, Haitian, Spanish, Native American, and African cultures has led to Louisiana being one of the only states without an official language. This variety of culture has led to lasting impacts on the region. Old-world Roman Catholicism gave Louisiana its familiar celebrations of Mardi Gras, All Saint’s Day, and led to the parish system instead of counties.

Louisiana has over 53 casinos in its 64 parishes. This article will highlight 5 of its finest and discuss what makes these destinations unique.

1- L’Auberge du Lac

In the heel of the boot you’ll find the city of Lake Charles. This area of the state is known as ‘Cajun Country’ and his home to two casinos on this list. Both are conveniently located off of US Interstate 10 making the drive from New Orleans and Houston a simple trip.

Opened in May 2005 by Pinnacle Entertainment, the property was later acquired by Gaming and Leisure Properties. In an interesting twist the property was leased back to Pinnacle in 2016 who became Penn National Gaming. Along with L’Auberge, Penn National Gaming operates the Ameristar and Belterra casino lines as well as several racetracks.

The casino resort boasts an incredible 999 rooms. In addition to standard luxury rooms, the casino resort has a line of the themed suites including Royale, Marquis, Palais, Versialles, and Garden. The Big Dog and Cool Cat suite features custom lighting, a pool table, and a 110-inch media wall to go with your custom butler service.

Casino amenities include 6 restaurants hosted by resident chef Lyle Broussard. The resort also houses 3 clothing stores, a jeweler, and a florist. Visit Contraband Bayou Golf Pro Shop before you hit the links on L’Auberge’s 18 hole Tom Fazzio designed golf course.

Because of Louisiana’s riverboat gambling laws L’Auberge du Lac’s casino floor is built on a floating structure. Walking from the lobby into the casino you would never know that you were actually standing over water.

L’Auberge casino contains over 1,600 slots and video poker machines. The 2,100 square foot casino floor has 73 tables featuring your favorite games. Baccarat games include Baccarat, EZ Baccarat, and Mini Baccarat. Other table games include Blackjack, Craps, Fortune Pai Gow, Four Card Poker, High Card Flush, Mississippi Stud, Progressive 3 Card Poker, Roulette, Ultimate Texas Hold’Em, 21+3 (a combination game of Blackjack and 3 Card Poker).

2 – Golden Nugget Lake Charles

Also located in Lake Charles, the Golden Nugget neighbors L’Auberge du Lac. Sharing it’s name with the original location in downtown Las Vegas, the Golden Nugget Lake Charles completed construction in December 2013 and opened in December of 2014.

Like L’Auberge du Lac, the Golden Nugget went through several owners before being acquired by Landry’s, Inc. Eventually Landry’s, Inc. settled on adding the resort to it’s Golden Nugget line; Atlantic City, Laughlin, Las Vegas, and now Lake Charles. Previous names for the project included Mojito Pointe and Ameristar Lake Charles.

The 242 acre waterfront casino has 1038 guest rooms and suites housed in a 22-story tower. Stay in the standard Deluxe rooms or 1,000 square foot Suite options.

Other options include Grotto Italian Restaurant, Lillie’s Asian Cuisine, Cadillac Mexican Kitchen & Tequila Bar, and the aptly named buffet, ‘The Buffet’. Bars include Blue Martini, Rush Lounge, Ice Bar, and Bar 46. Bill’s Bar and Burger faces Contraband Bayou, complete with a mini-white sand beach and marina to dock your yacht.

Other amenities you won’t want to miss include live entertainment from the nation’s top acts, spas, salon, and a barbershop. The casino resort includes 9 stores with everything from Aqua, for your pool gear to Riveted, for denim. Visit the Pro Shop for golf gear before you tee off at The 18-hole, par 72 golf course on the bayou; designed by California-based architect Todd Eckenrode.

Located in Vinton, Louisiana; Delta Downs is an American thoroughbred and quarter horse racetrack. Owned by Boyd Gaming, this 200 room resort opened in September 1973 making it the oldest casino resort on the list.

Restaurant options include the Rosewater Grill & Tavern for mouth-watering steaks and delectable seafood.

Conclusion

Casinos On Louisiana Texas Border

Many of the land-based casinos on this list are in south-west Louisiana, with the exception of Bossier-City. This area of the state is where Louisiana gets its moniker ‘the Sportsman’s Paradise’ because of year-round hunting and fishing.

Casinos On Louisiana Boardwalk

As with any of the casino resorts in Louisiana make sure you get your fill of the unique Cajun cuisine. If you’re lucky you might meet a local speaking the endangered French Creole dialect. Ask them about any events in the area and do as the locals do.
