The Kansas Crossing Casino + Hotel is an $80-million casino and hotel in Pittsburg, Kansas, owned by Equity Ventures, JNB Gaming, and Laham Development. The property is operated by JNB Gaming.[1] It is located at the intersection of U.S. Highway 69 and U.S. Highway 400.
History[edit]
In 2007, the state of Kansas enacted the Kansas Expanded Lottery Act, which included authorization for four casinos to be built and managed by private developers, under contract with the Kansas Lottery.[2] On June 23, 2015, the Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission voted to award the Kansas Crossing Casino + Hotel a license to build just south of Pittsburg, Kansas.[3] The Kansas Crossing Casino beat out two other proposals including the Castle Rock Casino plan from Wichita businessmen Rodney and Brandon Steven as well as Camptown Casino proposed by billionaire Phil Ruffin of Las Vegas.[4] This was the fourth such license awarded in the state of Kansas.
Kansas Crossing Casino opened its doors on March 31, 2017.[5]

Kansas Crossing Casino celebrated its Grand Opening on April 8, 2017 complete with a performance from Kansas born, Nashville recording artist Jerrod Niemann.[6] The Kansas Crossing Casino + Hotel opened with over 625 slot machines, 16 table games, a 123-room Hampton Inn & Suites, Two Brothers Mining Company restaurant, and an indoor/outdoor entertainment venue called The Corral.
Community support[edit]
The Kansas Crossing Casino + Hotel has committed to three community partnerships valued at more than $4.5 million over 10 years. The commitments are to support the workforce development, education, economic development, and tourism in Southeast Kansas. The partnerships have been awarded to the Southeast Kansas Career and Technical Education Center (CTEC), Pittsburg State University, and the Crawford County Convention & Visitors Bureau.[7]

Relevant Legal Statutes on Gambling in Kansas*
The minimum legal gambling age in Kansas depends upon the gambling activity:
- Land-Based Casinos: 21
- Poker Rooms: 21
- Bingo: 18
- Lottery: 18
- Pari-Mutuel Wagering: 18
The Kansas legislature approved charitable and social gaming in 1974, followed in 1978 by both pari-mutuel racetracks and a state lottery. All state licenses for pari-mutuel facilities have ended. None have been open since 2008.
In 1995, negotiations led to a state-tribal compact for the establishment of four American Indian tribal casinos. This quickly led to the state granting licensing for four non-tribal casinos.
In 2008, the Wyandotte Nation, a federally-recognized tribe in Oklahoma, opened a tribal casino in downtown Kansas City. This opening occurred after more than a decade of litigation.
*The purpose of this section is to inform the public of state gambling laws and how the laws might apply to various forms of gaming. It is not legal advice.
Slot Machine Private Ownership in Kansas
In Kansas, it is legal to own a slot machine privately if manufactured before 1950.
Gaming Control Board in Kansas
The Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission (KRGC) regulates commercial gaming in Kansas. The primary responsibilities of the KRGC centers around the four state-run casinos in Kansas.
The Kansas State Gaming Agency is a separate agency which provides oversight of the tribal-state gaming compacts for the five tribal casinos in Kansas. Its authority for this enforcement role comes through the Tribal Gaming Oversight Act.
Further, each federally-recognized American Indian tribe with a negotiated and approved tribal-state gaming compact also has a tribal gaming commission. Each commission regulates tribal gaming operations at a single tribal casino, including:
- Iowa Tribe Gaming Commission
- Kickapoo Tribe Gaming Commission
- Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation Gaming Commission
- Sac & Fox Nation Gaming Commission

Payout Returns in Kansas
The minimum theoretical payout limit for the four state-run, commercial casinos is 87%, per Kansas state law.
The KRGC provides monthly revenue reports for the four state-run casinos. With casino profits only, however, there is insufficient information to determine return statistics. Specifically, these reports do not show the amount won by players.
The minimum theoretical payout limit for all tribal casinos except for 7th Street Casino & Resort is 80%. This limit is in the Electronic Gaming Devices Technical Standards associated with each tribal-gaming compact within sub-section “Software Requirements for Percentage Payouts”.
Summary of Kansas Slot Machine Casino Gambling in 2020
Kansas slot machine casino gambling consists of four state-run, commercial, non-tribal casinos and five tribal casinos.
The minimum theoretical payout limit is 87% for the state-run casinos and 80% for tribal casinos owned and operated by the four tribes of Kansas.
Annual Progress in Kansas Slot Machine Casino Gambling
In the last year, Kansas Star Casino dropped from its first-place position as Kansas’ largest casino to the second-largest. Now, with 150 more slot machines, the largest casino in Kansas is Hollywood Casino at Kansas Speedway.
Further, there has been no progress with re-opening The Woodlands, a defunct pari-mutual racetrack with slots machines. If it had re-opened, The Woodlands would have been the largest casino in Kansas. It has stood empty in Kansas City for over a decade.
