Every aspect of our 16th annual North American Regulators Roundtable was a success – the keynote addresses, the various high-level sessions, and the brand new event mobile application.”
Te annual, two-day event, held at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino on the Las Vegas Strip, is a unique opportunity for regulators to absorb high-level information from thought- leaders and discuss or share ideas about various topics with their peers.
Brand new to this year’s Regulators Roundtable was the event mobile application, accessible to attendees via their smart phones.
Regulators were encouraged to use the application for submitting questions throughout the event, which were answered either during respective sessions or the “What’s On Your Mind? An Interactive Forum,” also new to the
event. Other popular sessions included “Detecting Cheaters and Minimizing Fraud,” which featured live demonstrations of techniques thieves use to gain access to sensitive information and compromise the integrity of a gaming operation; and “What is the Call for Fantasy Sports?”, which opened up discussion about Daily Fantasy Sports and the legal and policy issues related to the debate.
Te exciting keynote address was delivered by Lt. Colonel Kevin Sweeney, a motivational speaker, author and decorated combat pilot. Sweeney’s presentation, “Pressure Cooker Confidence: How To Lead When the Heat Is On,” focused on his life or death experience as a pilot during a night combat mission and allowed the audience to mentally live through the challenges he faced.
Concluding this year’s event, we were pleased to announce that next year’s Regulators Roundtable will be held March 15 and 16, 2017 at Luxor Las Vegas.

Connecticut
MGM Resorts has teamed up with the Schaghticoke Tribal Nation to try and thwart plans to give a third casino licence in Connecticut to the two operators who are currently running casinos there.
MGM is reportedly financing the Schaghticoke tribe to help in its opposition. Both the tribe and MGM have now filed lawsuits claiming it is unlawful to just give the tribes that own Connecticut’s current casinos; the Foxwoods Resort Casino and Mohegan Sun instead of launching a tender to see who should develop a commercial, off-reservation casino.
Te sole aim of the third casino is to prevent the flow of potential players to a new US$950m MGM casino across the state border in Springfield, Massachusetts.
