Resorts World Las Vegas appointed him to replace Edward Ferrell, who was leaving the company.<\/p>\n<p>The experienced casino executive oversaw the ongoing construction phase until its opening in June 2021, as reported by Casino Nieuws. Before joining Resorts World Las Vegas, he held high-ranking positions at Gold Strike, Fantasy Island, MGM Grand, Treasure Island, and Tropicana.<\/p>\n<p>Resorts World Las Vegas has not revealed any specific details about the actions that led to Sivala&#8217;s dismissal. <\/p>\n<p>However, accounts indicate the leader&#8217;s exit is tied to an ongoing national inquiry into an illicit betting operation that catered to professional sportspeople.<\/p>\n<p>The operation was headed by former minor league baseball player Wayne Nix and his long-term associate, Edorn Yoshida Kagassov.<\/p>\n<p>Nix confessed in April 2022 to one charge of conspiring to run an illegal gambling business and one charge of submitting a false tax return. Legal representatives have set his sentencing hearing for March 6, 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, the Nevada Independent, a non-profit news agency, reported that the national inquiry into the operation had broadened.<\/p>\n<p>According to unidentified sources, national investigators have summoned employees of Wynn Resorts and MGM Resorts in relation to the inquiry.<\/p>\n<p>Investigators are attempting to ascertain whether Las Vegas casino workers acted as representatives for Nix&#8217;s betting network, recruiting bettors and taking a share of their losses. Agents are also examining whether they used casino resources to cover Nix&#8217;s gambling debts.<\/p>\n<p>The inquiry is being led by agents from the Department of Homeland Security Investigations and the Internal Revenue Service Criminal Investigation Division.<\/p>\n<p>Sign up for the iGaming newsletter. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The head of Resorts World Las Vegas, Scott Sivala, has been dismissed.
