Gamblers in Colorado got a chance to learn the game of craps this past weekend as local casinos get ready for a few changes. Fortune Valley Casino in Central City offered players the chance to learn the game at the 16th Street Mall to get players ready for the addition of a few new games.

On July 2ndcasinos in Colorado will be able to stay open twenty four seven as well as offer craps, roulette and higher betting limits. To celebrate Vegas style, the casino brought a few Elvis impersonators along for the celebration.

Joe Behm of Fortune Valley Casino commented: “Central City is looking forward to it as well. A lot more people are going to be discovering the community. A lot of folks who used to go to Vegas may come up and say, ‘Hey, this is the real deal now. I can play roulette, I can play craps, I can bet $100, I can stay out all night.’ They’re going to have a great time.”
Colorado casinos are hoping that the new additions will bring more players to their gaming floors and boost their business. The casinos had been hurting over the past year due to economic issues so the additions should help bring in more revenue.
