Silver Sevens is a hotel and locals casino 1 mile (1.6 km) east of the Las Vegas Strip, in Paradise, Nevada.

The property originally operated as the Continental from 1980 to March 31, 1999, eventually closing due to financial problems.

[2] It was owned by a group of individuals,[3] including land owner Ira Levy of Los Angeles.

In 1981, Levy and two Los Angeles partners, Albert Barouh and Louis Litwin, received approval to expand gaming at the Hotel Continental from 15 slot machines to more than 250.

Meanwhile, an anonymous tip was made to state gaming regulators that Nicholas Robone had skimmed money from the Continental.

Barouh denied that he agreed to forgive the debt in exchange for Thomas making the allegation, which went unproven.

Michael DiBari, an assistant slot manager, had rigged the machines to pay out phony jackpots, which would be "won" by associate Alphonse Cuozzo and then sent to the Gambino crime family in New York.

[26] Terrible's hoped to attract locals, including workers on the nearby Las Vegas Strip, with tourists expected to make up 20 percent of the property's clientele.

The project included work on the property's 327 rooms and the sportsbook,[30] and nearly 1,000 new slot machines were added to the casino.

Part of the plans will include a rooftop lounge and Pink Taco restaurant to be built on the hotel's porte-cochère.
