Missouri Gaming Commission Votes to Fine Mark Twain Casino

The Missouri Gaming Commission is recommending that disciplinary action be taken against Mark Twain Casino in LaGrange.

At its monthly meeting Wednesday, the commission unanimously approved a preliminary order of disciplinary action, recommending that the casino be fined $5,000.

Documents show that the casino is being penalized for failing to correct three significant findings found in a compliance audit from 2015 to 2017.

The commission had been told that the findings had been corrected. But, a follow up audit last year showed the failures had not been corrected.

Officials with Mark Twain Casino have 30 days to appeal the recommendation or the action becomes final.
