Walls Coming Down for Vegas Poker? Wynn First to Remove Dividers

Related Topics: Las Vegas, Wynn Resorts, PokerNews

Poker players sick of being enclosed in a plexiglass bubble while playing in Las Vegas are getting welcome news: the transition away from the dividers has begun.

Wynn/Encore is the first to begin removal of the plexiglass dividers that previously shielded each player and the dealer into their own personal space, according to the local Vegas FOX outlet. They're able to do so after getting clearance from local gaming authorities to bump up to 100% occupancy.

While the FOX5 report mentioned the removal of plexiglass from table games and slot machines, PokerNews confirmed with the property's poker room that the removal extends to poker.
