On a first-quarter earnings call, executives said they believe Durango will achieve its margin goals faster than originally planned, though some cannibalization in customers at Red Rock Resort has occurred.  •  The Philippines Amusement and Gaming Corp. has received government permission to eliminate 929 jobs at its Casino Filipino New Coast in Manila, owned by Marina Square Properties, Inc.
