GLOBAL GAMING BUSINESS PODCAST: David Jacoby, Chief Executive Officer, Lucky Dragon Hotel and Casino

When the Lucky Dragon Casino Hotel opened in December 2016, it became the first brand new gaming property to open in Las Vegas in the last six years. It is also the first fully Asian themed property in the city, with signs in Chinese above the English. All the food outlets are a variation on Chinese/Asian cuisine, and the vast majority of the table games are baccarat. Dave Jacoby has been involved with the development for more than six years and explains the concept and reasoning behind the property. He spoke with GGB Publisher Roger Gros in his offices at the Lucky Dragon in January. Now you can subscribe to the GGB Podcast on iTunes. Sign up today.
