TRUMP CAN DO THE JOB NEEDED TO CREATE A SUCCESS IN ATLANTIC CITY
Analysis of: CAN TRUMP CASINOS KEEP UP WITH THE NEIGHBORS ? | www.nytimes.com
Author: Ron Lodge, Former Senior Marketing Executive (former) Venetian Casino Resort Inc
Donald Trump has always had the ability to make his Atlantic City properties the ones to look up to in this area. My feel here was that it was not a necessary evil to make competition with his own properties, but to the others on the boardwalk. There is no doubt that the newer properties had a...

THE RIVIERA HOTEL/CASINO CAN'T SURVIVE IN TODAYS MARKET
Analysis of: RIVIERA HOLDINGS CHIEF DEFENDS BID REJECTION | www.lvrj.com
Author: Ron Lodge, Former Senior Marketing Executive (former) Venetian Casino Resort Inc
It was an understandable move on the part of Riviera Holdings to drop the bid most recently afforded them by an investment group. It stands to reason that they could have a bidding war as did the Tropicana when Aztar placed it for sale. The outlook of a sale for $25.00 to $28.00 was not held in much...

ARE THEY CLOSING IN ON THE NUMBERS POSTED BY NON TRIBAL GAMING IN THE U.S.
Analysis of: NATIVE AMERICAN CASINO GAMBLING | www.casinogamblingweb.com
Author: Ron Lodge, Former Senior Marketing Executive (former) Venetian Casino Resort Inc
The figures quoted in the attached article state that Native American Gaming has reached a figure of about $23 billion dollars. I have the feeling that if a new survey was taken it would show much closer to $30 billion. Not bad for area's that prior to the inclusion of this form of gaming had little...

HERBST GAMING TAKES OVER FROM MGM PROPERTIES IN PRIMM,NV...
Analysis of: BACK TO A FAMILY FOLD IN PRIMM, NEVADA | www.lvrj.com
Author: Ron Lodge, Former Senior Marketing Executive (former) Venetian Casino Resort Inc
I'm sorry to have to say that MGM was not the type of company prepared to operate the Primm, Nevada properties. They were rather small and catered to people traveling along the I-15 corridor from Los Angeles to Las Vegas. It was generally considered a pit stop for most travelers with just 40 miles left...

A LAS VEGAS LANDMARK COULD BE ON THE BLOCK
Analysis of: REPORT REVEALS GRIM NEWS FOR BINION'S | www.lvrj.com
Author: Ron Lodge, Former Senior Marketing Executive (former) Venetian Casino Resort Inc
Binion's has been a very large part of the face of Las Vegas for more years than you might expect. It seems that the recent buyers of the once famous property have no clue as to what it needs to survive. The downtown area in which Binion's is located is the most specialized business in gaming - it take...

iT'S JUST WHAT THE HARD ROCK NEEDED - BROUGHT UP TO DATE AND EXPANDED
Analysis of: HARD ROCK PROJECT UNVEILED-NEW OWNERS PLAN MAJOR EXPANSION | www.reviewjournal.com
Author: Ron Lodge, Former Senior Marketing Executive (former) Venetian Casino Resort Inc
The thought of the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino staying as is, would have needed a miracle to survive in today's market. They, at one time, had a lock on the 30 something clientele. That monopoly no longer exists. They now have an opportunity to make a major impact on the Paradise Road gaming corridor....

Author: GLG Member Program Contributor
This transaction is a viable deal in the market. It is important for readers to see good change in this market and reinforced onto the positive.

ONLINE GAMBLING IS NOT IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE AMERICAN GAMBLER
Analysis of: BANNING ONLINE GAMBLING IN THE UNITED STATES | www.ncalg.org
Author: Ron Lodge, Former Senior Marketing Executive (former) Venetian Casino Resort Inc
There are millions upon millions of dollars being wagered online. The problem is there is no benefits to our citizens in the way of taxes or any other benefits. The only justification for this type of gambling is that it can be done from your own house, you don't even have to venture out to your...

HARRAH'S HAS OTHER PLANS IN THE FUTURE FOR THIS PROPERTY
Analysis of: BILL'S GAMBLIN' HALL & SALOON OPENS IN LAS VEGAS | www.readybetgo.com
Author: Ron Lodge, Former Senior Marketing Executive (former) Venetian Casino Resort Inc
The take over of the Barbary Coast by Harrah's Entertainment was in the works for quite a while. It was a costly trade for them with the Boyd group, the former owners. It does, however, seal the properties from the Venetian to the Barbary Coast in the hands of Harrah's. It completes the 350 plus acres...

LAS VEGAS HAS THAT SPECIAL APPEAL - IT JUST CAN'T BE DUPLICATED
Analysis of: TRIBAL CASINOS NO MATCH FOR LAS VEGAS ALLURE | www.reviewjournal.com
Author: Ron Lodge, Former Senior Marketing Executive (former) Venetian Casino Resort Inc
The tribal properties just can't compete with the Las Vegas market. The thought in the minds of Las vegas business people when the Indian gaming originally came to pass was FEAR - the thought of losing potential players from California was hard to conceive. No one has the foresight to see that...
