Inside Wynn's Sky Casino


It's a little quiet these days on the blog, so I figured it would be a good time to take you folks inside Steve Wynn's Sky Casino, per a little tour designer Roger Thomas gave me a few weeks back. This is the high-limit private bettor parlor on the 63rd floor of the Encore tower. There are five gaming areas and two dining rooms. (I've read some accounts that say there are five gaming TABLES. I'm a little foggy from this walkabout, but since I've photographed five different tables and I know there was a whole wing of the place I didn't get to see, I'm pretty sure that's false.)

The Sky Casino is technically open to the public but only folks with a credit line of, last I heard, $300,000 can play up here. That, above, is one of the dining rooms with a view of the Wynn signature atop the other tower right outside.

Just off the private elevators, the space has its own cage...


...and the ornate hallways, furnishings and art work that is Thomas' signature...


...and, of course, those floor-to-ceiling windows with views of the city. For whatever reason, I didn't take photos showing better what the views are, so I apologize for that.


Otherwise, it's a pretty straight-up gaming space...


...just away from the rest of us. No word on how often it gets used. It was empty that day, as you can see.
