Posted: October 15, 2018 Posted by: Cori e-Others

The Irish Bookmaker Association (IBA) predicts that this tax rate will lead to small bookmakers a "disproportionate impact", which may lead to 300 betting shops closing and 1, 500 employment loss. I'm doing it. IBA further suggested that companies with an annual sales of 2 million euros are more likely to be completely lost. In the statement, Chairman Sharon Bahn said in a statement, "I was disappointed ... the government does not understand the serious effect of high sales taxes, and does not understand the serious effects of many employments. He made concessions to this request. "

The industry is not as opposed to Ireland's gambling tax reforms, provided they are in the form of a tax on profits. This will level the playing field and help small independents survive in the face of tough competition from larger players such as Paddy Power. Both will take a hit from this news, but the latter will undoubtedly come out better overall.

As part of this transaction, Boid Gaming, headquartered in Las Vegas, has $ 575 million in three states to reduce the Federal Ant i-Trust Law problem. Accepted to acquire. The company currently operates 29 casino facilities in 10 states.

PENN and BOYD lease the operation of Pinnacle Casino from Gaming and Leisure Properties, a real estate investment trust.

The first announcement of Pen and Pinakuru, which was first announced at the end of last year, had to obtain approval from 14 State Gaming Authorities and the Federal Trade Commission. Ren o-based Eldorado Resorts currently runs 26 casinos in 12 states.

"The acquisition of Pinnacle Entertainment is an important milestone in the history of Pennatal's 2 4-yea r-old listed company," a Pennatal Tim Wilmot said in a statement.

Penn National has a total of $ 376 million in a total of $ 376 million in Boja City, Louisiana, in partnership with Vici Properties, a real estate investment trust.

At Las Vegas last week at Global Gaming Expo, the executive of Pen was expected to reduce the cost of $ 100 million to San Trust's gaming analyst, Barry Jonas. He said he was proceeding.

"Interestingly, the management was excited to be able to expect the top line synergy by utilizing Penn's interactive business." Nevertheless, most of the top line sinasies, as expected, cros s-properties. It seems that it comes from the promotion.

Pen National representative told the Gaming Committee of Nevada this month that it will maintain the headquarters of Pinnacle in Las Vegas. Pen owns Tropicana Las Vegas and M Resort in Henderson City, acquiring HORSESESHU and CACTUS PETE'S in the jackn community near the border with Idaho.

G2E: Gaming analyst predicts a greater variety of sports betting options

Posted: October 15, 2018 Posted by: Cori e-Others

Christopher Globe, a manager in charge of sports and emerging markets in the survey and consulting company Eilers & amp; Krejcik Gaming, added sports betting to the menu after the Federal Supreme Court overturned the ban on sports betting in May. He said that as the number of states increased, a major change would come.

"In New Jersey, there are 6 to 7 million adults in New Jersey, so up to 40 online sports betting brands may compete for the market," he said on the future of sports betting at GLOBAL GAMING EXPO. Glove said. "And the pressure is to r e-form the situation or at least try to reconstruct a situation through more and more types of bets, which are likely to resist regulators and policies. I think it will be. "

Globe says that this includes bets on the presidential election, the Academy Awards, and a sport s-related bet.

"Many people want to bet on elections. If politics and entertainment fuses, the betting market will be noticed."

Five years later, if a similar panel discussion was held in the G2E, Grove said that the current sports betting would be called traditional sports betting and its own abbreviations would be used.

"I think the product of sports betting products will be close to what I call sports gaming. I think it will be a selection of a wide range of products that can be talked to. "

Globe said that Draft Cings and Fandecell would be surprised at how stronger in the regulated sports betting market five years later. These businesses have a "core competency" that the casino businesses targeted for, and were established to digitally acquire customers who are interested in sports and entertainment contacts.

"They have a narrow field focusing on this opportunity, which cannot be present in companies like MGM and Caesers," says Grove. "Many people will be surprised that companies such as Fan Duel and Draft Kings will play a dominant role.

"(They) provide very special skills and concentration, but it is not necessarily shared by striped businesses." The (strip) company has a bigger business. (Fan Duel and Draftkings) are in an advantageous position that can move quickly with opportunities, and I think that moving to that chance will create a sustainable advantage in both the short and long term. "

It is part of the provision of a fantasy sports contest, but according to Globe, the two companies also developed games that cannot be called fantasy or sports betting, such as bracke t-style games and picke m-style games last year. I am.

"I am trying to create an attractive experience at the intersection of sports, entertainment, and money." It's not always a bet, it's an opportunity to get a prize. Companies have a great competitive advantage for companies that are not.

Grove said competitive pressures will force conversations about these different types of betting, whether it's "in politics, entertainment, in sports, or on the fringes of sports that we haven't thought of yet."

"That pressure won't necessarily translate to pie-in-the-mouth betting, but the pressure to do something to stand out... will be intense," he said. "I think that pressure will have a significant impact on how policymakers and regulators decide to shape these markets."

Grove emphasized that the future of fantasy operators is premised on them being able to enter the market. Current licensees tend to be gatekeepers, he said. Boyd Gaming has a deal with FanDuel, and if DraftKings finds a similar partner, market entry is guaranteed, he said.

On the topic of betting exchanges, Jennifer Roberts, associate director of the UNLV International Center for Gaming Regulation and moderator of the discussion, asked if there was a market for the types of betting exchanges that are popular in Europe. New Jersey has authorized such an exchange.

Globe said that in the US, exchanges would be "niche".

"I think there are cultural issues and regulatory issues," Grove said. "We're looking at a very fragmented market that will be in the cards for the time being, if not the lives of everyone in this room.

"You need liquidity for betting exchanges to thrive, and I think achieving that liquidity in the short term will be a tough target."

‘We like to have a lot of fun’: Vegas casino owner Stevens planning new resort

Posted: October 15, 2018 Posted by: Cori e-Others

The D Las Vegas, which Stevens owns with his brother Gregory, was Fremont Street's last all-new resort, opening in 1980 as Sundance on land owned by legendary organized crime figure Moe Dalitz (who failed to get a gaming license).

The similarities end there.

Stevens, who also owns Golden Gate, has in recent years acquired the downtown block bounded by Fremont Street, Main Street, East Ogden Avenue and 1st Street, clearing the site of the aging Las Vegas Club, the diminutive Mermaid and Glitter Gulch strip clubs.

Last week, Stevens said that in response to an interview with the CDC Gaming Reports at Global Gaming EXPO, he was approaching the name, theme, and "one handy", which has not yet been decided. At the moment, there are 777 hotels and 117, 000 square feet casinos.

Derek Stevens responds to Calvin Ayre. com's Becky Rigero interview in G2E.

"We are drawing a schematic design and drawing construction drawings," said Stevens. The price of the new resort has not yet been decided, and it will be "private".

The 5 0-yea r-old Stevens was very interested in this year's G2E. He and his team looked around the trade fair in search of the latest game technology that could be used when the new facility opened. He was also interested in discussions on sports betting, as he plans to operate his own sportsbook on behalf of William Hill US.

Last month, his company applied for the operation of sports betting with the Nevada Gambling Committee. Stevens is trying to open a sports betting facility at D and Golden Gate early next year.

"By adding the third facility, you can have enough volume to operate your business," said Stevens. He has hired a matte meterf, who has been running a sportsbook in Las Vegas for many years.

Las Vegas facility

Speaking of Stevens, "D", located in the center of Freemont Street Experience, is famous. In October 2011, Stevens, who acquired this resort, which was known as Fitzgerald, represented his hometown Detroit, introduced American Cony Island and Andiamo Steak House, a Detroit classic restaurant. He created a vintage Vegas casino on the second floor, which offers historic mechanical gambling games, and rebranded the resort.

A few years ago, he purchased the site of the closed Clark Court, demolished the building, and built an outdoor downtown event center.

Stevens has often been compared with historical downtown casiners from his loud personality and a practical approach to operating a private casino. He has shown a deep commitment to the downtown market, which has been a region that attracts valu e-oriented customers.

However, Stevens has not distinguished downtown customers, strip customers, and "impact" Airbnb customers. Las Vegas downtown has 6, 000 hotels, and 365 days will be 2 million nights.

"If 24 million tourists visit downtown, it will only be this much," said Stevens.

Stevens has regard the new resort as a Las Vegas facility.

"I'm going to bring new ideas and innovation to casino designs, resort designs, and attractions." I'm bullish what this resort has for our existing facilities. I'm bullish for Las Vegas. What I mean is a bullish attraction.

Bellagio celebrates its 20th anniversary this week, reminiscent of the excitement of Las Vegas, which has been developed and expanded through new resorts and attractions throughout the 1990s. He said people came to Las Vegas to see new facilities.

"I think the demand for new attractions is not only for people living in Las Vegas, but also for Las Vegas customers." Resort World Las Vegas, New Convention Center, Raders Stadium, and our projects All of these will be more reasonable to Las Vegas.

Sports betting

This is because sports networks have become a topic of point spreads and ove r-under games.

"Sports betting was hiding shadow.

For the last two years, Stevens has played his role to promote this cause. He bets in the NCAA tournament 32 games, including a bet of $ 363, 000 this year. Michigan had the probability of winning the NCAA Championships by 40 to 1, and betting on $ 25, 000 in the United States became a nationwide news. He exhibited the bet in D Las Vegas, opposite Golden Nugget.

Despite the defeat of Biranova, Stevens hedged a 330, 000 dollar money line betting to wildcats.

Stevens says there is no reason to stop now.

"Even if you enter a new place, there is a great William Hilbook in Plaza at 100 feet, and you can always visit Tillman (Feltitta), a friend of 100 feet (the owner of Golden Nugget) across the street." Stevens said. "We like to enjoy a lot. We come up with a wild idea and do it."

CEO tells G2E panel: Track gaming, nongaming spending to figure a guest’s total value

Posted: October 15, 2018 Posted by: Cori e-Others

The Echo device equipped with Alexa not only makes people's lives convenient, but also learns a wide range of shopping preferences. Az Husain, founder and CEO of CASINO Science, can use similar technologies to evaluate the total value of players by taking into account not only games loss but also spending on amenities. say.

"Knowing the overall value of players is to understand your preferences.

"Gaming's profitability can surpass no n-gaming profitability, but if you look at these two comprehensively, you can create a richer profile than players consumption," GLOBAL GAMING EXPO. Husain, a moderator of the panel discussion, "Gaming and No n-Ming activities, comprehensively evaluate the value of the player."

Panel members are Michael Kahanui, a marketing director of MUCKLESHOOT CASINO, Chukchansi Gold Resort and Casino, the highest finance manager of James. He, and sometimes It was Alexa speaking from Echo on the panelist table.

SNEAD and KA'ahanui pointed out that some casinos have already tracked the player's no n-gaming activities. Many casinos use different computer systems in gaming and no n-gaming businesses, making it difficult to track the total purchase of individual players. At present, many vendors are providing systems, so this work is easier, but it is not enough to access data.

"In addition to understanding customers from play and data, it is very useful to spend time with guests on the floor. They give a lot of information," he said.

He and Kaanui have given the data alone, although the data alone seemed logical, but the players failed.

Kaahanuui said he had removed free accommodation benefits from players who have never used free accommodation benefits, and instead decided to provide amenities with a history of use, such as eating and drinking and spatification.

"It was a crisis," because the guest opposed the change. The guest was pleased that there was a room option without using the amenity. Sneed said a similar story when he stopped free accommodation services for players living within 20 miles from casinos. The guests repelled that they rarely use it as an option for the emergency, despite rarely used.

"It's great to know the preferences of guests, but that doesn't mean that guests don't always want to reflect what they want. Not only the team members on the forefront. It is very important to get their perspective by talking with guests at all levels, such as supervisors, managers, directors, vice presidents, and CFOs.

Sneed, who was asked what the relationship could be between the player and the casino in the future, has a potential secondary side of the new technology, such as the possibility that drunk driving accidents will decrease due to the spread of ride share programs. I mentioned the effect. "Such a change in technology will make great improvements to our lives," said Sneed.

Kahanuyui said that as the technology improved, customer expectations increase. "Most people will open smartphones and do as much as possible as soon as possible, as soon as possible. They expect it. It will be a difference. "

Alexa also said: "The value of the player depends on the ability of the player to spend on products and services. Knowing the preferences of the player's amenities is a major factor. Guests make dinner on PDA. Imagine a spa reservation, or imagine a guest experience based on the history of the amenity. The natural language processing technology is at the forefront. "

"And she added.
