In 1968, Jerry's Nugget moved down the street to its present location: a larger building which previously operated as the Bonanza Club from 1956 to 1967.

[2] The present location operates at 1821 North Las Vegas Boulevard,[1] originally the site of the Bonanza Club casino.

[8][9] The following year, the Nevada Gaming Control Board investigated the casino after complaints of cheating; agents confiscated two altered dice and a short deck of cards.

[13][14] The casino's former pit boss testified that he had put the dice into use, without the Adamses' knowledge, in order to deter gamblers on winning streaks.

The newly formed Nevada Gaming Commission considered revoking their Carson Nugget license as a result of the Bonanza Club cheating.

The former Bonanza building was remodeled and opened as the new Jerry's Nugget in early November 1968,[1][31] with 10,000 sq ft (930 m2) of additional space.

He continued to remain involved in food operations, and successfully petitioned for the state to restore his gaming license in 2008.

[41][42] Within a few years, the property was taken over by Angelo's sons, Jeremy and Joseph Stamis, marking the third generation of family ownership.

[43] Lender U.S. Bank filed a lawsuit in March 2012 asking for a receiver to be installed after Jerry's Nugget defaulted on payments on a $3.6 million loan.

For reasons unknown, the cards wound up in storage for the next 20 years, until they were rediscovered and put on sale in the casino's gift shop at $1 per deck.

The casino agreed to the proposal in 2018, and the new decks went on sale a year later, using modern methods to replicate the original cards as closely as possible.
