Boyd Gaming Sells South Coast

Las Vegas Review Journal is reporting that Boyd Gaming has agreed to sell South Coast to Michael Gaughan, former Coast Casino owner. Gaughan, who is leaving Boyd to operate South Coast, sold Coast Casinos to Boyd two years ago and, from what I understand, still called the shots at the Coast properties. I can’t help but wonder what this move will mean for the other Coast properties.

Update: Las Vegas Business Press provides additional details.
