U.S. District Court, District of Nevada v. Las Vegas hotel-casinos (Caesars, MGM, Wynn et al.)
January 25, 2023 · United States
Gibson v. Cendyn alleged major Las Vegas hotel-casinos colluded to inflate room rates by using Cendyn/Rainmaker's shared pricing algorithm; the courts dismissed the claim (9th Circuit affirming in 2025, with a DOJ amicus opposing), a key precedent on algorithmic price-fixing.
Key takeaway — how to prevent this
Algorithmic pricing tools that ingest competitors' data can expose you to price-fixing and antitrust liability — don't delegate pricing to a shared algorithm without competition-law review and genuinely independent decisions.
Inclusion does not imply wrongdoing or liability. A filed lawsuit is an allegation, not a court finding. Status reflects the latest information we have — always check the official source for current status.
