Not too surprising, Richard, but still unfortunate. I keep hearing that the Golden Phoenix is in trouble, too, and it hasn't been open too long.
By the way, for anyone who has seen the new movie "The Cooler," the casino scenes at the fictional Shangri-La were actually shot in Reno at the Golden Phoenix. The movie itself is pretty dumb, but the casino shots - including several of Las Vegas - are good.
