EVERETT, MASS. (WHDH) - A water leak in an Encore Boston Harbor poker room prompted an evacuation of the area Friday afternoon.

No Poker Or Roulette: Massachusetts Casino Reopening Plan Would Dramatically Change Gambling Experience By Colin A. Young, State House News Service June 18, 2020 at 9:46 am. Encore Boston Harbor: Everett’s Mystic River casino by the numbers. 3,158 slot machines, 231 table games, and 800 trees more than 15 feet tall—these and other stats on eastern Massachusetts.

Cellphone video shows water pouring down from the ceiling and people running away. Poker players said a tournament had just started when the waterfalls began, and gamblers in the packed room quickly fled.

“We sat down for poker and all of a sudden there was chaos, people running,” said poker player Nathan Abbott. “I looked up and water was coming from four or five different spots.”

“All of a sudden, like, it’s raining from the ceiling,” said poker player Nicole Straight. “I was like, ‘I better get my chips because who knows, chips are cash.'”

Straight said the Wynn Casino in Las Vegas will have artistic flourishes inside, and initially she thought this might be a similar event.

“I said wait, this is actually water falling down here, this is not a water feature,” Straight joked.

A spokesperson says the leak was isolated and has since been contained.
