Phil Hellmuth was allowed to quarantine in his suite at the Aria after testing positive without any interference from hotel staff.

Eisenberg tweeted that she was offered a room at a budget hotel off The Strip but refused, calling on the help of a local friend.

Poker Twitter kicked up a bit of a storm over this wsop players eviction policy with many, including Ike Haxton, surprised that it is even legal.

What is the difference between a guest quarantining on The Strip or off it? It’s clear that whichever resort Eisenberg was staying at is thinking of potential lost profits with an outbreak over the risks of sending an infectious person out in public.
