NATCHEZ — Magnolia Bluffs Casino in Natchez remains closed.
The casino was forced to close on Friday afternoon because of a computer glitch.
In fact, all casino properties of Saratoga Holdings LLC, Magnolia Bluffs’ parent company, have been reported to be closed because of problems with the company’s computer system.
“Magnolia Bluffs Casino is currently experiencing IT issues. We are working diligently to resolve the problem. We will reopen as soon as possible,” Amy Brannigan, director of marketing for Sarasota Casino Holdings, said early Friday evening.
Brannigan confirmed on Saturday evening that the computer problems have affected the company’s casinos in Colorado and New York state.
“All properties were impacted in some way,” Brannigan said. “Unfortunately, we have no update on a timeframe (for opening the casino in Natchez) yet.”
Saratoga Holdings also owns casinos and property in Saratoga Springs, New York, and Black Hawk, Colorado.
