Overview
Pharaoh's Casino is a casino located on the Carretera Masaya in Managua, Nicaragua. The property combines electronic gaming, table games, poker, sports betting, and hospitality-oriented entertainment in a single venue. Reported facilities include slot machines, video poker, blackjack, Caribbean Stud Poker, American roulette, and other live gaming positions, with a high-limit VIP salon for premium play. The casino has also operated a dedicated Texas Hold'em poker room with three tables, including a table reserved for cash games. Reported nightly activity included low-limit no-limit Texas Hold'em cash games and a small buy-in tournament. A sportsbook room with multiple flat-screen televisions provided a setting for viewing sporting events and placing wagers. The casino has been described as allowing smoking throughout its areas. Capacity details reported in reference material indicate that the property once had 140 slot machines and later had 156, alongside 10 table games and 77 live gaming positions. These figures describe the casino's reported facilities rather than a verified current operating inventory. Pharaoh's Casino is also associated with an annual community and food event centered on gallo pinto, a traditional Nicaraguan dish. Held at the casino on September 15 since 2002, the event was reported to have set a record by serving 22,200 dishes. Proceeds from the activity were directed to El Pajarito Azul Home charity. Publicly available reference material provides limited information about the casino's founding, ownership, corporate structure, financial performance, management, licensing, and present operating status. Accordingly, the venue is best documented as a Managua casino property with gaming, poker, sportsbook, and charitable-event functions rather than as a broadly documented international consumer brand.
History
Pharaoh's Casino is documented as a casino on Managua's Carretera Masaya in Nicaragua. Available reference material focuses primarily on the venue's facilities and a recurring charitable food event, while providing little verified information about its founding, development history, ownership, management, licensing, or current corporate status. The casino's reported gaming mix included electronic machines and live table games. At one point, the property was described as having 140 slot machines; later descriptions referred to 156 slot machines, together with 10 table games and 77 live gaming positions. Its table-game offering included blackjack, Caribbean Stud Poker, and American roulette. The venue also maintained a high-limit VIP salon and offered modern slot and video-poker machines, indicating an attempt to serve both general casino visitors and higher-stakes patrons. Poker formed a distinct part of the property's offer. The casino was reported to have a Texas Hold'em room with three tables, one of which was reserved for cash games. Low-limit $2-$4 no-limit Texas Hold'em cash games were described as taking place nightly, alongside a low-stakes tournament with a $10 buy-in. The property also included a sportsbook room equipped with flat-screen televisions for watching sporting events. Reference material states that smoking was permitted throughout the casino's areas, although no current policy is established by the available sources. Beyond gambling, Pharaoh's Casino became associated with an annual gallo pinto event. Gallo pinto is a traditional Nicaraguan rice-and-beans dish, and the event was held at the casino on September 15 beginning in 2002. The event was reported to have organized and served 22,200 dishes, establishing a record according to the cited reference material. Funds raised through the event supported El Pajarito Azul Home charity. This activity gave the property a visible community and charitable dimension in addition to its commercial gaming role. The available record does not establish when the casino opened, identify its founder or owner, document changes in corporate control, or confirm whether the facility remains active under the same name. It also does not provide reliable information on revenue, employment, regulatory actions, or expansion. The casino is therefore best understood from the documented evidence as a Managua-based gaming and entertainment property whose known identity rests on its casino facilities, poker and sportsbook operations, and recurring gallo pinto charity initiative.
