In 1990, Donald Trump opened the largest and most lavish casino-hotel complex in Atlantic City. Unlike any other casino in America, the Trump Taj Mahal was expected to break every record in the books. Other interesting finds include a pair of dice, a Taj Mahal-branded shoe polisher, and a quartet of matchbooks. Most of what’s available is an eclectic mix of key cards and casino chips of varying denominations. The casino chips tend to feature photos of Trump or musical acts who performed at the casino. $1 ATLANTIC CITY TRUMP TAJ MAHAL & TRUMP PLAZA Casino Chips.Lot of 2 Condition is Used.

Why is the casino shutting down?

Despite gaming win falling significantly, the casino’s owner, billionaire Carl Icahn, said that the casino can’t be profitable without cutting its labor costs. The labor union fought back and with no resolution, Icahn moved to close the facility.

Icahn acquired the casino through Chapter 11 bankruptcy in February 2016 for roughly $300 million. At the time, he said he was “confident” he could turn around the casino’s business.

Trump Taj Mahal gaming win in 2016

According to figures from the New Jersey Division of Gaming Enforcement, the casino won $116.5 million from gamblers through the first eight months of this year. That was a 7.9 percent decline compared to the same period a year prior.

The casino was the worst performing in Atlantic City. It wasn’t involved with regulated NJ online gambling.

The poker room

The casino closed its storied poker room in February 2015. It reopened with 24 tables (down from 48 in the past) in May 2016 and raked $112,000 for the month.

In January 2015, the last full month the poker room was open prior to reopening this year, rake was $178,000. Trump Taj Mahal poker revenue fell to $80,000 in August.

The casino originally planned to reopen the room just months after it closed, but it took over a year for it to do so.

Golden Nugget NJ had poker revenue of $75,000 in August (the least among the city’s poker rooms), but it had just 10 tables.

Citywide, poker revenue (both live and online) was $4.52 million in August. About $2.35 million came from live poker, while $2.17 million came from internet poker.

The Trump Taj Mahal’s poker room was once a decent draw for the property. It raked $3.57 million in 2014, the last full year it was in business. That put it in fourth behind Borgata ($19.87 million), Bally’s ($4.4 million) and Harrah’s ($3.8 million).

At this point, its second closing will have a negligible effect on the Garden State poker market.
