At its regular monthly meeting Thursday, the Colorado Limited Gaming Control Commission (LGCC) approved retail and master license renewals for four casinos: Grand Z Casino and Johnny’s Z Casino in Central City, along with Monarch Casino and Z Casino in Black Hawk. Grand Z, Johnny’s Z, and Z Casino are all owned by Maverick Gaming.

The licenses were approved for two years, but do not include “entities or individuals with whom these licensees have entered into, or considered entering into, contracts for sports betting operations or internet sports betting operations,” according to LGCC Chairman Richard Nathan.

The regulatory body also approved 11 sports betting “first vendor minor licenses,” which cover entities that provide services or act on behalf of sports betting operators, including one for TransUnion Gaming Services.
