Dan Wade appointed to Shuffle Master board
Former MGM Mirage executive Dan Wade has been appointed to the board of directors of Las Vegas-based gambling equipment provider Shuffle Master Gaming.
Wade spent 37 years in the gaming industry and held various executive positions with MGM Mirage for 16 years, including a stint as the vice chairman of the company’s board from 2003 to 2006.
Most recently, Wade was involved with the Elad Group in trying to build a $5 billion hotel-casino version of New York City’s Plaza Hotel on the site of the since-imploded Frontier on the Strip.
Shuffle Master Chairman Phillip Peckman said Wade “is well-known throughout the community and his considerable knowledge of gaming operations complements the strengths of our existing board members.”
