A new poker room opened in Pahrump, Nevada. Suncoast Hotel & Casino "Just over the hump to Pahrump," as Las Vegans like to say. Pahrump Nugget Hotel & Casino opened the doors to its new poker room featuring first-class amenities and gaming options. It offers four poker tables and progressive jackpots where gamers can try their luck. Plasma TV screens are displayed throughout the room, showcasing current entertainment, sports, local and national news. Food and beverage service is available for guests playing in the poker room and players may choose from the full menu offered at Pahrump Nugget Hotel & Casino's Golden Harvest Cafe, which is open 24 hours. The room is a non-smoking facility.
"Our new poker room was designed to offer guests the highest level of quality and comfort," stated Jeremy Jenson, general manager. "The new room creates an inviting atmosphere where all players, regardless of experience, will be comfortable and feel welcome."
Pahrump Nugget Hotel & Casino offers a variety of table games, including blackjack, roulette, and craps, as well as 553 slot and video poker games. Additionally, the property offers daily bingo play accommodating up to 185 players and a 24-lane bowling center.

Private banquet and meeting facilities are also available.
Open 24 hours a day, the new poker room is located next the to the Golden Harvest Cafe.
While a new room opens, we have a rare closing of a poker room in Las Vegas. Almost unheard of in recent years, but Fiesta Rancho in Las Vegas closed its five-table room last month. In fairness, they were competing with themselves with the larger, nicer poker room next door at Texas Station. The noon tournament that Fiesta Rancho was running has been taken over by Texas Station, but they have no plans to run Fiesta's former midnight session.
