Greektown Casino to be Led by Consultants


A bankruptcy judge has given financially troubled Greektown Casino-Hotel the go-ahead to employ three Las Vegas-based consultants to run the city's third-smallest gambling hall.

Judge Walter Shapero approved an order that clears the way for three executives of the Fine Point Group, the gaming consultancy hired in January to help Greektown improve its bottom line, to take top positions at the casino.

Randy Fine, Fine Point's founder, is set to take the reins as chief executive. Amanda Totaro and Chris Colwell will head up the casino's marketing and operations. All three have experience with big-name casino operating firms such as Harrah's Entertainment
