London venue hopes to attract casino visitors from Russia with special deal.
An exclusive London gambling venue is hoping to take advantage of the casino ban in Russia by offering a special package for the country's high-rollers.With all casinos and slot machine halls in Moscow now illegal, Les Ambassadeurs Club will fly gamblers direct to London from the Russian capital in a private jet.
Once there, they will be chauffeured to the private Mayfair gambling club to enjoy all the casino games no longer permitted in Russia, the Moscow Times reports.
Spokesperson for the club James Black told the newspaper: "Obviously, with the casino closures in Moscow, those who want to play roulette and traditional casino games can be interested.
"We're happy if the big players from Moscow want to come."
Due to a law that came into effect on July 1st, gambling in Russia is now only permitted in four specially-designated zones, which are spread out across remote regions of the country.
Many gambling operators are expected to leave Russia and set up in surrounding nations, such as Armenia, Georgia and Kazakhstan.
