ATLANTIC CITY — In gambling, it is still possible to lose even 41 years after a casino closes. That was the message delivered last week by an appellate panel in New Jersey in the case of a man who tried to cash in chips from the former Playboy Hotel and Casino that he bought at an online auction.

ATLANTIC CITY — Profits plunged at Atlantic City's casinos in 2024, down more than 9% from the previous year, figures released Monday show. The New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement released figures showing the nine casinos posted a collective gross operating profit of $675.1 million, down 9.3% from 2023. And only two of the casinos — Caesars and Hard Rock — saw their operating profits increase last year.
