Jeremy Weinstein, chief marketing officer for Maverick, said the company intends to capture players with twice-daily tournaments and the lowest rake - the commission paid to the casino on games - on the Strip. Maverick currently owns four commercial casinos in Nevada, three in Colorado and 23 card rooms in Washington. Privately held Maverick Gaming LLC, based in Kirkland, Washington, has signed a deal with Bally’s Corp., operators of the Tropicana, to open the Maverick Gaming Poker Room at the 66-year-old Strip resort. Now, it’s turning the tables to host a poker room.
