Key Points
- Live dealers from Golden Gate Hotel & Casino will be offered new roles at Circa Resort & Casino and The D according to Owner & CEO Derek Stevens

Golden Gate Hotel & Casino, the longest-standing hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada, will officially shift from live dealer games to electronic table games (ETGs), according to property Owner & CEO Derek Stevens.
“Big changes are coming to the Golden Gate, and we couldn’t be more excited. As the oldest hotel in Las Vegas, we’ve always embraced the future, and now we’re reimagining our casino floor with a high-energy electronic table games pit unlike anything downtown has seen,” Stevens said.
“Expect more excitement, faster gameplay and all the newest machines. All of our table games team members at the Golden Gate are being offered roles at Circa or the D, or the opportunity to explore new departments within the company.”
As Stevens noted, current table games dealers working at Golden Gate Hotel & Casino will now be offered similar roles at Circa Resort & Casino and The D in Las Vegas, properties also overseen by the gaming executive.
