Co-Chief Executive Officers of Century Casinos, Peter Hoetzinger and Erwin Haitzmann, noted that the acquisition of Rocky Gap Casino Resort, along with the upcoming acquisition of Nevada’s Nugget Casino Resort, were important steps in the company’s pursuit to acquire first-class assets in the US. The company also looks forward to working with both casino management and staff and the Maryland regulator to ensure a great future for Rocky Gap.
