Between the casino and the event center, DeMello has had to lay off about 80 employees. She said waiting until September to pay her gambling taxes, which amount to about $36,000, will make her savings last longer while she waits to reopen.
She said paying the taxes now would also have made it extremely difficult to bring back her staff and buy food, as well as pay for other costs she might incur when trying to reopen to the public sometime this summer.
Businesses like Aces and the Black Pearl that rely on some form of gambling revenue, were mostly ineligible for the federal government’s Paycheck Protection Program, a section of economic stimulus legislation Congress passed in March to offer small businesses loans that can be forgiven if they keep their employees.
The Small Business Administration initially didn’t allow most businesses that receive a portion of their revenue from gambling to receive loans, but it loosened the restrictions Tuesday to include businesses that receive less than 50% of their revenue from gaming or make less than $1 million from gambling.
Heather Songer, public information officer for the Washington State Gambling Commission, said the gaming industry is facing “an existential crisis” and many of the business that rely on gaming revenues may not return once the economy is allowed to reopen. The Small Business Administration loans may help, but a large segment of businesses in the gaming industry will not fall within the new parameters.
DeMello believes that under the new rules, she may be eligible to receive a loan, though she has not tried to apply yet.
Before the change in the rules and the respite from gambling taxes, she was worried she would not be able to afford to reopen the casino and would have to operate Players & Spectators Event Center without it.

DeMello said she knows she and many other businesses dependent on some form of gambling revenue are likely considering whether they will be able to open once the stay-home order is lifted. She said waiting to pay taxes until after they can make money again is a good first step.
“To be honest, anything will help,” she said.
