Mark Twain Casino ceases live table games due to staffing challenges

Industry

Mark Twain Casino in La Grange, Missouri has announced the discontinuation of live table games, including poker, blackjack, roulette, craps, and mini-baccarat.

The decision stems from challenges in recruiting and retaining qualified dealers and supervisors, KHQA reported, citing a company statement.

Virtual versions of these games will continue to be available. The move is expected to impact some employees’ positions.

Here’s the full statement from the company:

“Due to ongoing challenges in hiring and retaining skilled and experienced table game dealers and supervisors, Mark Twain casino has made the difficult decision to eliminate live table games, impacting a small number of employees. This change has provided Mark Twain with the opportunity to expand our offering of roulette, blackjack, craps, and mini baccarat through electronic table games following our substantial investment in a recently renovated gaming floor and team member areas.”

“We value all our employees and have encouraged those impacted to apply for several open positions at the property. We are committed to continuing to enhance our guests’ experience and supporting the local community.”

The Mark Twain Casino opened in 2001 and was first operated by Grace Entertainment. Herbst Gaming acquired it in 2005 and the casino’s name was changed to Terrible’s Mark Twain Casino. In 2011, Herbst Gaming changed its name to Affinity Gaming and the casino dropped the “Terrible’s” part of its moniker.
