The Temporary at American Place casino helped parent company Full House Resorts achieve record earnings for the first quarter of 2023. American Place casino owner Full House Resorts produced record earnings in the first quarter of the year led by the performance of The Temporary at American Place in Waukegan.
“America Place has continued to improve its operations since its opening just over a year ago,” Lee said in the release. “We look forward to continued growth at American Place as its database continues to grow and operations continue to season.” During his more than 33 years in the gaming industry, Babinski said in the past he was able to begin developing a database of premium players before opening days of casinos. There was not an opportunity to do so in Illinois.
Both Stolyar and Lee said the opening of the North Shore Steaks & Seafood restaurant in February is another contributing factor. With two restaurants and other food options already there, the new eatery offers a high-end option for diners, gamblers or both. “It’s like a concierge service,” he said. “They will take your calls. They can make a reservation. They get the things they need.”
Not all promotions are gambling-related. Babinski said there is also entertainment like a musical group playing weekends at the Asia Aztea Restaurant. It also brings people to the casino.With the opening of Bally’s Chicago Temporary Casino at the former Medinah Temple in Chicago approximately 50 miles to the south, Stolyar said there has not been any drop in traffic. It has continued to increase.
