LAS VEGAS
The 68-year-old owner of the South Point hotel and casino in Las Vegas says he's backing a Nevada bill to legalize online poker.
Michael Gaughan said Tuesday that he thinks the Silver State should be the first in the country to explicitly allow
Gaughan in his support is differing from at least two major casino companies that have come out against the bill introduced this month in the Nevada Legislature. An initial committee hearing for the bill is scheduled for Thursday.
Gaughan says he hasn't partnered with any online casino companies, and doesn't think the Nevada bill will significantly help his casino on Las Vegas Boulevard seven miles south of the Las Vegas Strip.
