“We sincerely regret any inconvenience to our customers. The casinos initially plan to close for a week but will reassess if conditions change said the company. And again, this is the right thing to do from a safety perspective for our employees and our customers, and all of Rhode Island in fact.'Īccording to a release from the casino’s president, the closing comes after a state directive to combat COVID-19. 'We're going to see this throughout the country.

'This is not unique to Rhode Island,' said Twin River spokeswoman Patti Doyle. People driving to or from Cape Cod will drive right by Mohegan/Foxwoods/Springfield to go to Tiverton? Not likely.Twin River Casino Hotel and Tiverton Casino Hotel will close temporarily for a week starting midnight Saturday. Initial impression is that the competition has nothing to worry about.

Hotel supposedly has, count 'em, 84 rooms.Īlready smelled smoky, to this non-smoker. I guess they would never LOWER the $25 to $15. So if they raised the $15 table to $25? Two identical tables side by each, one would be H17, one S17. The table limits were the usual video display, such that the lower limit could change. The felt on the $25 table said S17, the $15 felt said H17. There were two adjoining tables in one pit. Some tables were full but there would not be a problem getting a seat at a $15 or $25 table, Penetration was maybe 6 3/4 decks. Played three rounds until a people wandering by sat down.

I played one-on-one on a $15 table where I triggered a shuffle when I waked up. Traffic was less than 'very light.'ĭidn't visit any high-roller room, but all of the pits in the open spaces were 8-deck, 3-2. No trouble finding a parking spot no more than 50 feet from the entrance. Stopped by on opening day around 11:30 - an hour after the 'grand opening'
