Louisiana allows riverboat casinos to operate on land

May 23, 2018

On Wednesday a law was signed by Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards that would allow for larger onshore gaming floors for riverboat casinos. Under Senate Bill 316, the casino gaming floor can be moved nearly a quarter mile or 1,200 feet from the berth of the riverboat.

27 years ago gambling was legalized in the state. There are currently 15 casino riverboats. New Orleans had 1 casino built on land. There are also 3 tribal owned casinos.

An application will need to be submitted to the state Gaming Control Board before approval can be given that would allow the riverboat operations to move on land. It is estimated that it will be close to six months before the applications begin to be submitted.

States with similar laws are being studied to help determine the what the new guidelines should be. In the next few months the board will need to write the regulations for the application process, financing, and other numerous details. These regulations will also need some time after that before they can be given final approval. There must be public hearings and written responses given first before they can go into effect.

Under the previous law, riverboat casinos could only have 30,000 square feet of gaming space. They could also only have gaming positions upto 2,365. The gaming position has to do with how many people could play at a table game or seats for slot machines. SB316 will allow for a clear definition of the gaming positions are counted.

In 1991 15 riverboats were approved for casino gaming licenses. All gaming was to take place while the boat sailed. In 2001 the law changed and allowed for the boats to stay at their berth. However, it was required that the casino floor was placed over the water. Mariners had to be on staff. Also, the paddle wheel had to be operational.

Whenever a change to the current gaming law was made, the Gaming Control Board set new requirements for casinos to make investments in new amenities for guests. This included adding new restaurants and spa facilities. The new law would require casinos to continue with this trend if they want to move their gaming operations on land. It could be upwards to $600 million in a new building and design.

It was reported that in 2017 $419.2 million was raised in taxes from riverboat casinos. $371 million in taxes was raised from gas and oil severance.

Harrah's New Orleans loses license extension

May 21, 2018

On Friday the regular session for the Louisianan Legislature was adjourned. A deal was not settled for the gaming license for the proposed extension project for the Harrah's New Orleans. The proposed project will cost $350 million to complete. The casino is owned by Caesars Entertainment. A conference committee did not approve the bill causing a new obstacle for the project.

The casino is the only land based gaming facility in the state. The company is seeking to extend their gaming operations for 30 years with no bids. The current contract is scheduled to expire in 2024. This is six years in the future.

The company maintains that allowing for them to extend their license, they would be able to create more opportunity for economic growth in the area. However, if the license is not allowed to be bid on then opponents believe the city and the state would not have a chance to receive the most beneficial deal.

Lawmakers decided to reject the proposal since at this time there is no other alternative. A comparison can not be made to decide what the best option would be. Tunica casinos best payout.

Under the proposal, construction jobs would create the need for 600 people. After construction, 500 permanent jobs would need to be filled. The city would also have an increase of tax revenue that would be in the millions.

2019 is an election year for Louisiana. It is possible that another attempt by the casino could be made then. Iron man 2 slot.

GOING FOR GOLD: Casino Charters & Lake Charles Tours with Sam's Limousine!

Best slot machines to play in vegas. The buzz of energy hums openly in the air, and anticipation crackles like static here, where Vegas meets the South between four major casinos and resorts from its waterfront perch in southwestern Louisiana along the Contraband Bayou.

Welcome to Lake Charles.

With only two legal casinos within the entire state of Texas, more and more Texans are crossing state over into Louisiana for some good, old fashioned gambling.

In fact, Houstonia Magazine wrote of their celebrated 2017 visit to local hotspot Ember Grille & Wine Bar: 'Our waiter further confirmed our rite-of-passage theory: More than 80 percent of Ember's customers, he estimated, hail from Houston.'

Louisiana casinos are long beloved by Houstonians, with Lake Charles fondly nicknamed 'The Vegas of the Southeast.'

A popular spot for high rollers, Lake Charles continues to attract visitors from all over the world with its world-class amenities featuring Vegas-style gambling, premiere golfing, and world-renowned spas.

And one unexpected favorite? Lake Charles still has smoking-friendly casinos, despite a statewide ban on indoor smoking.

Experience island-inspired accommodations for a perfect tropical getaway – without the need for nightly rates!

Belle Of Baton Rouge

Lake Charles features four incredible casinos and resorts sure to fit every group and style!

1. Delta Downs Racetrack Casino Hotel
   • Over 1,600 slot and video machines
   • Live races fall through spring

1. L'auberge Casino and Resort
   • Perhaps best known of the four with nearly 1,600 slots and 24/7 Vegas-style gambling
   • Particularly noted for staff excellence.

1. Golden Nugget Lake Charles
   • Over 1,100 slots and 49 table games
   • Championship golf
   • H20 Pool + Bar

1. Isle of Capri
   • More than 1100 slots and 13 poker tables.
   • Horse races

With so much to choose from, skip the long drive and instead opt for the luxury transportation of a stretch limousine. Or, for larger groups, upgrade to the mega limousine, or a party bus as it is more commonly known. If you have a larger group of people up to 56 passengers, then you can opt in for our state of the art charter buses for rent.

Enjoy five-star amenities like flat screen TVs, laser and fiber optic lighting, private climate control, and a full bar with glassware, all of which allow you the opportunity to experience the very best that Lake Charles has to offer – both on and off the casino floor.

And still there is much to do outside the casino walls – Lake Charles is surprisingly family-friendly, despite what one might think.

With a safe and trusted driver from Sam's Limousine in the lead, your group can split up to enjoy all of Lake Charles' local cultural delights.

Live entertainment continues to draw big name acts for exclusive shows. Lake Charles will welcome 3 Doors Down, Clay Walker, and Kool and the Gang, just in March alone. Cajun food fans won't want to miss the Southwest Louisiana Boudin Trail, and Louisiana Spirits Distillery, the craft distillery in town, offers tours every day of the week except Sunday. Don't forget to get your milk punch, a local specialty!

For the kids in tow, hop back in the limo and check out the USS Orleck, an actual World War II battleship offering onboard tours. Bathing beauties and nature enthusiasts can head to Holly Beach, also once known as the Cajun Riviera.

For even more excitement, visit Pintail Wildlife Trail for an actual, real-life swamp safari through gator-infested marshes. The park offers a partial walking trail, as well as a driving path you can enjoy from the comfort of your limo or party bus.

There are over 75 festivals in Lake Charles each year, with the rare but exciting opportunity to experience authentic French Creole zydeco music.

But why do I need professional transportation for my casino trip?

Driving is always an option, but with gas, mileage, and maintenance, it rarely becomes the most efficient or cost-effective option.

With a trip such as this one, rooted in indulgence and excess, the luxurious limousines and party buses at Sam's Limousine will get the party started from the minute you board!

With sumptuous, opulent amenities to match the tenor your trip and keep you comfortable and relaxed, there's no doubt that the trip will become so much more enjoyable for you and your guests.

Our limousines comfortably accommodate up to 10 guests, while our party buses will hold 36 passengers. If you need a larger option we have charter buses for rent as well.

There's plenty of room to bring along the entire family for a day of dining, shopping, pampering, exploring, and of course, a little gambling. Better yet, book a multi-day excursion with professional, safe, and reliable transportation for you and all of your guests throughout your entire trip.

Flat rate trips are available, or work with our talented and experienced customer support representatives to plan your perfect itinerary.

Sam's Limousine has also partnered with our friends in Lake Charles to arrange for special group pricing and perks, exclusive to Sam's Limousine customers!
