Again We Go Through "Casino" Debates

Experts: Fears of casino loophole overblown | www.ohio.com

Las Vegas may have another local competitor which may cost more jobs there than it creates in Ohio. I also have to ask if Ohio has appropriate people to properly regulate Casino action in the state. Lakes is a strong company and I believe would operate a good property, but it will be interesting to see how the tribal gaming machine will respond.

Opponents fear casino initiative will win

October 29, 2008

Experts: Fears of casino loophole overblown | www.ohio.com

Opponents of Lake Entertainment's (LACO) Ohio casino initiative have shown how desperate they are.  And they have every right to be, with polls showing voters favor allowing this casino by nine points.

TROPICANA ENTERTAINMENT SHOULD MAKE A SUPREME EFFORT TO GET THE LOST ATLANTIC CITY PROPERTY BACK UNDER THEIR BANNER

October 28, 2008

OWNERS OF THE TROPICANA APPEAL-OFFICALS ASK REGULATORS TO RETURN CONTROL OF BELEAGUERED PROPERTY TO THEM | www.lvrj.com

Is it beyond possibility to get the Tropicana Atlantic City back under their control? How would the recapture of this property help the outlook for the future of Tropicana Entertainment? Will the New Jersey Gaming Commission really look favorably on this possible return of this property to Tropicana Entertainment hands?

CLOSING ANY BUSINESS IS A HARDSHIP - CLOSING FLORIDA'S HARD ROCK HOTEL/CASINO'S IS JUST OUT OF THE QUESTION

October 16, 2008

SHUT DOWN HARD ROCK'S GAMING, STATES ATTORNEY GENEALS McCOLLUM SAYS | www.miamiherald.com

What benefit to the State of Florida would be closing several hotels and casinos? The loss of jobs, revenue and other valued assets is outlandish. The Attorney General must need some economic tutoring - he is way off base - could there not be other ways to approach the situation the Seminole's face with full blown Las Vegas style gaming?

THE CASINO COMPANIES WITH PROPERTIES IN MACAU CAN REST A BIT EASIER

October 15, 2008

MACAU UP, BUT STRIP WEAK - WYNN RESORTS | www.lvrj.com

Will the play in Macau continue to give a big boost to American based companies? I am sure, that as the market starts to recoup you will find added interest in this area of intense gaming. I can't think of another place that creates as much dollars invested by players on a regular basis. It's what is keeping some of the top gaming companies looking better than expected during the business and economic drop.

THE GOVERNMENT OF CHINA ADDING TOURISM RESTRICTION FOR MACAU

October 6, 2008

MACAU DROP-OFF HURTING LAS VEGAS | www.lvrj.com

Tourists restrictions in general usually will help bring more interest to an area. In the case of Macau, the Chinese powers to be seem to be hurting business. What's their plan - there is to much investment capital invested and planned to be invested for the government to be brainless in this matter. It does not say much for the top decision makers and their business and marketing prowess.

JUST ANOTHER HIT FOR LAS VEGAS WHEN THE GAMING LOCALS MARKET NEEDS SOME HELP

September 26, 2008

BUSINESS SHUTS LAS VEGAS AUTO OUTLETS - TWO DEALERSHIPS CLOSE IN SLUMPING ECOMOMY | www.lvrj.com

The closure of an auto dealership in general is no big deal. The loss of many dealerships under the same banner can't be a good sign. The trickle down effect of losing jobs could hurt gaming in the local market. Loss of income means less people at the gaming table and slots. We can hardly afford more problems.

LOOK LIKE "IGT" IS NOT THE ONLY GAMING RELATED BUSINESS TO FEEL THE DOWN TURN

September 18, 2008

IGT TO IMPOSE LAYOFFS | www.casinocitytimes.com

Seems that the only way most companies can cope with business being off is to cut payroll. Laying off good staff member is not the way to go. There are other measures that can be worked out. How much will these reduced staff actually help IGT,  and is it premature to think that there is a break in the gloom and doom coming in 2009?
