Some Las Vegas Casinos Limit Smoking At Table Games

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Several Las Vegas casinos are limiting smoking to keep patrons from removing the protective face masks they are required to wear.

Wynn Resorts Ltd. has designated any table games without a plexiglass barrier as nonsmoking areas inside its Wynn and Encore casinos on the Las Vegas Strip.
