Coming soon- HARD ROCK TEJON- Kern County, CA

[desertrunner]

Desertrunner Notes-

- This will have a negative impact on the Las Vegas gaming industry. They are now grabbing the the North LA County, Kern County and Ventura County regions.
- Very close to the I-5 highway and existing retail, stores and hotels.
- There are already too many Indian casinos in California, its getting over saturated now. Its like an over-grown tree choking itself out.
- Druff and Desertrunner live close to each other, so we will have to meet there and review in person
- Druff will absolutely cover this on PFA-Vampire Radio, when he finally gets around to it. (Nut still no more free rolls)
- Desertrunner will still be going to Las Vegas and Laughlin instead of this local property.
- Will Druff also get banned from this property??

Coming in 2025: Hard Rock Casino Tejon

Phase One will feature 150,000 square feet of gaming space with over 2,000 of the most popular slots, 58 table games, and video poker. Hard Rock Tejon will be the second closest Class III casino to Los Angeles, just under an hour away. The first phase will also introduce multiple dining options, including a signature Hard Rock Cafe, as well as a Rock Shop® and more.





Seriously, Druff should change the name to "Poker Fraud Alert-Vampire Radio" for real.

Not going to effect Vegas much. I know this area well. My dad spent part of his youth in Metler, and my friends' families have been farming out there for 100 years. This casino is out in the middle of nowhere. It's not directly on 99 or I-5. It will attract freeway and Bakersfield degens, but not much else. Chumesh is closer for Ventura county residents, and North LA county residents have Morongo as an option. Maybe they'll get a few people from Santa Clarita. If they get a poker room, I'll do a TR.

I disagree as this will impact Vegas some. Why drive 4/5 hours away when you can just drive 1 hour and not have parking and resort fees? Out in the middle of no where, most of the CA indian casinos are and still successful. Chumesh is far into Santa Barbara County and will still get the west side Ventura County people, but the new Hard Rock will get the East Side Ventura County people- jump on the 126 to the 5, easy.

"North LA county residents have Morongo as an option"- No, thats way too far out on the 10, heck drive down to San Diego Rincon instead. I would always go to Vegas over Morongo any day.

I think they will cover most of Kern County, all or north LA county and parts of Ventura. If they get some good concerts in, then the place will really take off.
