History
The casino was opened in 1964 by Major Riddle.[5] In 1966, the Silver Nugget became one of the first Las Vegas casinos to have female card dealers. The casino was purchased by Silver Nugget Gaming in January 2007 for $23.8 million, a price that included the Opera House Casino.[2] The company is privately held with Jeffrey Fine as the owner.[2] Fine also owns several Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf locations.[6]
In 2008, the casino sold 12 acres (4.9 ha) of vacant land, which is in the North Las Vegas redevelopment zone, to the North Las Vegas.[2]
