The Fixed Position Behind the Question
The documented downtown Las Vegas casino venues sit between 0.1 and 1.7 miles straight-line from the city reference point for Las Vegas. Straight-line means great-circle distance, measured directly between two coordinate pairs without following any road, and every figure in this article uses that measurement only. Road distance is always longer, and this article does not publish driving mileage or travel time for any pairing.
The question asks which Las Vegas casinos have paper keno. This article cannot answer that, because no source supplied here documents keno offerings — paper or electronic — at any venue. What it can do is fix the geographic position of the documented downtown venues, so a reader can see which properties sit close enough to each other that walking between them to check a keno lounge is a realistic errand rather than a drive.
Which Venues Are Documented Here
Five downtown Las Vegas casino venues have coordinate-level documentation in the reference sources used for this article: The D Las Vegas, Four Queens, Horseshoe, Golden Nugget Las Vegas, and Binion's. All five sit within a tight cluster at the eastern end of the Fremont Street area, based on their coordinates. The D Las Vegas and Four Queens sit essentially side by side, separated by a fraction of a mile, while Horseshoe and Binion's share the same coordinate pair.
This is not a complete list of Las Vegas casinos. The reference file documents 481 venues in total and is not a census of any city, county, state, or country. A reader who wants a complete current list of Las Vegas casino properties should consult the Nevada Gaming Control Board, which maintains the authoritative register of licensed gaming locations in the state.
Documented Straight-Line Distances
The table below lists every venue-to-city pairing supplied in the reference sources for this article. Each row is a great-circle measurement between the venue's documented coordinates and the city reference point for Las Vegas. No other pairings are available, and no road distances are stated or implied.
| Reference Point | Straight-Line Miles | Measurement Type |
|---|---|---|
| D Las Vegas | 0.1 | great-circle |
| Four Queens | 0.2 | great-circle |
| Horseshoe | 0.3 | great-circle |
| Golden Nugget Las Vegas | 0.3 | great-circle |
| Binion's | 0.3 | great-circle |
| Golden Gate | 0.4 | great-circle |
| Main Street | 0.4 | great-circle |
| Main Street Station | 0.4 | great-circle |
| Stratosphere Tower | 1.7 | great-circle |
| Jerry's Nugget | 1.7 | great-circle |
The D Las Vegas, Four Queens, Horseshoe, Golden Nugget Las Vegas, and Binion's all sit within 0.4 straight-line miles of the city reference point. Stratosphere Tower and Jerry's Nugget are farther out, each at 1.7 straight-line miles. None of these figures should be read as walking distance, driving distance, or a promise that any two venues are connected by a direct pedestrian route.
Why Straight-Line and Road Distance Diverge
A great-circle line ignores everything on the ground. It passes over buildings, through blocks, and across any feature that happens to sit between two coordinate pairs. A road cannot do that. The road network in downtown Las Vegas follows a grid pattern with one-way streets, pedestrian malls, and block-level closures around the Fremont Street Experience, all of which force a vehicle or a walker to travel farther than the straight-line figure suggests.
Terrain and water bodies also matter in other regions, though they play a smaller role in this flat, arid downtown cluster. In general, any river, lake, mountain grade, or highway barrier adds distance because the traveler must go around or over it. State boundaries add a different kind of complication: a straight line may cross a border where no road crossing exists at that exact point, forcing a detour to a legal crossing. The reader should treat every straight-line figure in this article as a floor, not a route.
Where the Venues Sit in the Region
Las Vegas sits in southern Nevada, and the documented venues are in the downtown area rather than the Strip corridor. Using only the coordinate data supplied, the city reference point is at approximately 36.17 degrees north latitude and -115.14 degrees west longitude. The five primary venues documented here all sit within a fraction of a degree of that point, placing them in the same downtown grid.
The D Las Vegas is documented at 36.16972222 north and -115.14277778 west. Four Queens sits at 36.16972222 north and -115.14361111 west. Horseshoe and Binion's both sit at 36.17138889 north and -115.14444444 west. Golden Nugget Las Vegas sits at 36.17083333 north and -115.14472222 west. These coordinates place the cluster north and slightly east of the city reference point, within the downtown Fremont Street area.
A reader who wants to understand the venue's position relative to other parts of the Las Vegas Valley should note that the Strip lies south of downtown, though no Strip venue is documented in this article's distance matrix, so no Strip-to-downtown straight-line figure can be stated here.
What Governs a Paper Keno Offering
Because the question asks about paper keno specifically, it is worth explaining what determines whether a venue offers it, even though this article cannot name which venues do. Paper keno is a live-draw game in which a player marks numbers on a paper slip, submits it with a wager, and watches numbered balls drawn. The game's presence at a given casino is a function of floor space allocation, demand from the venue's customer base, and the operator's decision about which games to spread.
No venue is required to offer paper keno, and offerings change as properties reconfigure their floors. A venue that had a keno lounge last year may have removed it or converted it to electronic keno terminals. The authoritative current answer lives with the venue's own gaming floor staff or its published game list, which is typically available at the casino cage, the players club desk, or the property's official website.
What to Confirm Before You Go
If the purpose of the trip is to find paper keno, confirm three things before traveling. First, confirm that the specific venue currently spreads paper keno at all, because the game is not universal and floor configurations change. Second, confirm the keno lounge's location inside the property, because a casino floor can be large and the lounge may be tucked away. Third, confirm the draw schedule, because paper keno runs on fixed draw times that vary by property.
The channel that holds the current answer is the venue's own published game list or a direct call to its casino floor. Publicly published reference sources document the venue's position, room counts, and slot machine counts as of a fixed point in time, but they do not track live game offerings. A reader should treat any third-party list of keno venues as unverified until the property itself confirms it.
FAQ
Does this article say which Las Vegas casinos have paper keno?
No. The reference sources used here do not document keno offerings at any venue, so no venue-specific claim about paper keno can be made. The article documents the geographic position of five downtown Las Vegas casino venues and the straight-line distances between them and the city reference point. A reader seeking the current keno list should contact each property directly or consult the Nevada Gaming Control Board for a complete venue list.
How far apart are the documented downtown Las Vegas casinos?
The five primary documented venues — The D Las Vegas, Four Queens, Horseshoe, Golden Nugget Las Vegas, and Binion's — all sit within 0.4 straight-line miles of the city reference point. Straight-line distance is not walking or driving distance. The road network, one-way streets, and pedestrian mall around Fremont Street mean actual travel between any two venues is longer than the straight-line figure.
Why does the article give straight-line miles instead of driving miles?
Because the only distance data supplied in the reference sources is great-circle distance between documented coordinate pairs. Road distance requires a specific route, which depends on road closures, one-way designations, and the traveler's starting point. This article does not publish driving mileage or travel time, and no highway number, exit, or turn-by-turn instruction appears here because none is documented in the sources used.
