High Stakes Monks
13 May 2012 | By: Seth Shafer High stakes poker games have become more common around the world as the popularity of the game has increased but a recent high stakes game involving eight monks in South Korea has led to a scandal for the nation’s largest Buddhist sect. Not only were the eight high-ranking monks caught playing poker on video — reportedly with $900,000 changing hands during the 13 hour marathon poker session — but drinking and smoking as well, all of which is contrary to their Buddhist beliefs, with gambling outside of casinos in South Korea illegal as well. The monks were members of the Joyge order, which with ten million members is South Korea’s largest and most prominent Buddhist sect. The scandal has led to six senior monks offering to resign with the head monk of the order issuing the following statement: “We deeply apologize for the behavior of several monks in our order. The monks who have caused public concern are currently being investigated and will be punished according to Buddhist regulations as soon as the truth is verified by the prosecution.” The poker game took place during a retreat at a posh lakeside resort where the monks had gathered for a memorial service for a fellow member. It’s believed that a fellow monk secretly filmed the game, turning the footage over to the head monk. Rumors had swirled for years that high ranking monks of the order would in private smoke, drink, and gamble but the footage seen below is the first time that any real proof has been put forth: More Casino News 12 May 2012 There have been plenty of “can’t lose” systems put forward for winning at roulette over the years but one of the few men to actually pull off the feat Read More 09 May 2012 Most of us wonder from time to time what it’s really like to be a high roller in Vegas, as far as trading in playing $5/hand blackjack at Bally’s for Read More 06 May 2012 Macau is experiencing a mini building boom after a lull in new casinos opening, with the long-delayed Sands Cotai Central casino finally opening its d Read More 03 May 2012 Las Vegas obviously offers plenty for gamblers from around the world to enjoy but there are also a lot of great sights to see in the city away from th Read More 01 May 2012 The colorful O’Sheas casino closed its doors for the final time on May 1, with the parking garage imploded as work gets into full swing on the $500 mi Read More 28 April 2012 Despite several positive factors working in its favor — including unseasonably warm weather and the opening of the new Revel casino — the casinos th Read More

Top 5 Gambling Apps for the iPad
4 April 2012 | By: Seth Shafer iPad owners who enjoy gambling games now have plenty of options to choose from with hundreds of different apps available for popular casino games such as slots, blackjack, craps, and Texas Hold’em poker. Game developers were quick to capitalize on the fact that millions of people around the world enjoy gambling games, with Apple’s Texas Hold’em game one of the very first apps released for the iPhone when it made its debut. While the vast majority of gambling apps for the iPad only let you compete for play chips — especially if you live in the US or another country with anti online gambling laws on the books — a few do let you play for real money depending on the country you live in. Zynga Poker:Zynga is better known for its games such as Farmville and Words with Friends but its Zynga Poker game has more than 30 million active players around the world that log in to play at ring games and tournaments. You’ll just be battling it out for play chips but it’s quick and easy to join a game any time of the day or night and easy to set up games between family and friends. Slingo:Slingo is a fast-paced hybrid of slots and bingo (hence the name) which lets fans of those games enjoy the best of both worlds with a wide range of puzzles and game types to choose from. Blackjack HD:Blackjack fans can quickly jump into playing a few hands of their favorite game with the Blackjack HD app, while newcomers to the game can benefit from learning the rules — although don’t expect to become a card counting wizard just from playing the game. Reel Deal Slots:Reel Deel Slots has been a favorite with PC gamers for years and they’ve brought that same fun and excitement to the iPad with their Reel Deal Slots app which offers tons of different slots games and tournament excitement to enjoy. bwin.com Poker: bwin is one of the few major online gambling sites to get a real-money app approved for distribution in iTunes, letting customers of bwin in selected countries can compete for real money at Texas Hold’em cash games, More Casino News 13 April 2012 Sheldon Adelson has opened yet another casino in Macau via his Sands China subsidiary, with the new $4.4 billion Sands Cotai Central casino opening it Read More 08 April 2012 UFC star Georges St-Pierre is set to tackle another sport as he rehabs an injury, signing with 888 as a brand ambassador in a deal that will see him t Read More 02 April 2012 Momentum continues to grow in the US for legalized online gambling, with states such as California, Nevada, and New Jersey at the forefront of efforts Read More 30 March 2012 Despite facing several headwinds the gambling boom in Macau shows no signs of slowing, with business booming in March and a record for gambling revenu Read More 28 March 2012 Most gambling fans have tried their hand at popular games like blackjack, craps, and roulette but there are also plenty of other unique and interestin Read More 27 March 2012 If Las Vegas gambling mogul Sheldon Adelson has his way Spain might be the next country to see huge Vegas-style resorts and casinos being built, with Read More

Sands Opens Newest Casino in Macau

Sands Opens Newest Casino in Macau
13 April 2012 | By: Seth Shafer Sheldon Adelson has opened yet another casino in Macau via his Sands China subsidiary, with the new $4.4 billion Sands Cotai Central casino opening its doors to become the 35th casino in Macau. Macau is now by far the world’s largest gambling market — surpassing Las Vegas back in 2006 — and the Sands Cotai Central is not just the latest Macau casino to open but will be the newest arrival for quite some time, as government approval and construction time means that it will be a least 2015 before a newer casino is opened in Macau. Macau’s growth as a gambling center has been meteoric, with revenue growth of 27% in the first three months of 2012 that followed up an amazing surge of 42% growth in 2011; Macau’s gambling haul of $33.5 billion in 2011 was more than five times the amount earned by Las Vegas Strip casinos. China continues to fuel the gambling boom in Macau, with high stakes baccarat players flocking to the area now that a nearby gambling alternative is open to them, instead of being forced to make a long trip to Vegas or other gambling centers as was the case in the past. Sands’ rivals in Macau (which include other Las Vegas-based gambling giants such as Wynn Resorts and MGM Resorts International) are also waiting for government approval for projects they’re planning for the Cotai Strip. All three companies may be based in Vegas but an outsized portion of their revenues and profits now come from their operations in Macau, Singapore, and other international markets. Sands’ newest casino in Macau is expected to benefit from Sands is expected to benefit from growing numbers of tourists in Macau drawn to shopping and other non-gambling attractions at Cotai’s resorts, with new transportation links making it easier to travel across from mainland China. The opening of the casino had been delayed several times, with the global recession and credit crunch halting the project several times as well as delays related to government restrictions on the amount of foreign workers that could be used during construction.

UFC Star Georges St-Pierre Joins 888
8 April 2012 | By: Seth Shafer UFC star Georges St-Pierre is set to tackle another sport as he rehabs an injury, signing with 888 as a brand ambassador in a deal that will see him take to the poker tables for the upcoming World Series of Poker in Las Vegas. St-Pierre released the following statement about the deal, which will also help raise money for the anti-bullying foundation that he has started: “I am very excited to become a global brand ambassador for Team 888poker. I have wanted to play poker for a while now as it is a great game of skill. It is not just your cards versus my cards; it is you versus your opponent.However, the most important aspect of my partnership with 888poker is that we are going to generate a great deal of money for my foundation that dedicates its efforts towards anti-bullying causes.” Georges St-Pierreis recovering from knee surgery and has been out of action in the octagon since he defeated Jake Shields in 2011. While a fight with UFC interim welterweight champion Carlos Condit upon his return, GSP will have his hands full at the poker tables until then as he looks to become the first UFC star to deliver a knockout at the felt at the WSOP. As far as other UFC stars who have tried their hand at poker, Chuck Lidell spent time on the ESPN televised table in 2008 during his brief run in the $10,000 buy-in WSOP Main Event and welterweight Mike Swick finished 10th in a smaller WSOP event in 2010 for a $34,708 payday. Georges St-Pierrejoins Shane Warne as prominent sports stars who have signed sponsorship deals with 888, which has successfully marketed its online poker games to a more casual, recreational demographic that tends to enjoy other sports as well.

Momentum Grows for Online Gambling in the US

Momentum Grows for Online Gambling in the US
2 April 2012 | By: Seth Shafer Several US states are taking a hard look at legalizing online poker and casino sites for residents, with the primary lure being the possibility of propping up sagging state budgets with millions of dollars in new tax revenues. In 2011 the District of Columbia became the first area to pass legislation that could allow it to offer online casino and poker sites to residents; delays and questions have plagued the initiative, however, with the possibility that the entire endeavor may be scrapped before ever seeing the light of day. That hasn’t stopped legislators in Ney Jersey, California, and Nevada from pursuing very similar legislation, with a recent ruling by the US Department of Justice clarifying the scope of the Wire Act to apply only to sportsbetting — and not to other activites such as online poker or online lotto ticket sales — adding more fuel to the fire. With many US states still struggling with high unemployment and dipping property values, a pitch for online gambling is much more receptive to voters’ ears than in the past. The same greater receptivity to gambling in general has seen states such as Massachusetts vote to add brick-and-mortar casinos for the very first time, while several other states have dramatically expanded their gambling options. As far as the potential money at stake from legalizing online gambling in the US, estimates vary widely depending on which side of the debate you fall on. Industry groups and pro-gambling lobbyists peg the potential tax revenues as high as $10 billion per year for the US gambling market, but studies that individual states have done have produced much smaller figures, with the state of Iowa releasing a study that shows it could collect around $5-$15 million a year while California projects it could make as much as $250 million.

Sin City to Come to Spain?

Sin City to Come to Spain?
27 March 2012 | By: Seth Shafer If Las Vegas gambling mogul Sheldon Adelson has his way Spain might be the next country to see huge Vegas-style resorts and casinos being built, with plans to build a huge $22 billion gambling mecca in Madrid or Barcelona. Both cities are vying for the right to host Adelson’s planned “Eurovegas” project, which would include six casinos and 12 hotels with over 36,000 rooms as well as numerous shops, bars, restaurants, and conference centers. Adelson (who operates casino giant Las Vegas Sands) will decide later in 2012 which city to build in assuming the deal is given the green light by Spanish authorities, which isn’t a guarantee as concerns have been raised about the massive scope of the project as well as concessions Adelson is demanding such as smoking being permitted in the casinos and no building limitations on the size and scope of the planned project. Adelson has had plenty of success breaking ground in new markets, with Las Vegas Sands’ operations in Macau and Singapore now bringing in the bulk of the company’s revenues and profits. Las Vegas Sands passed Caesars last year as the world’s largest gaming corporation, posting profits of $1.3 billion in 2011. Spain is one of the world’s top gambling markets with the majority of its citizens taking part in lotto, sportsbetting, and other types of gambling each year but casinos in Spain remain a relatively smaller and more sedate affair, without the huge, sprawling resort-style casinos and hotels seen in Las Vegas, Macau, and other locations. While the Spanish government has been resistant in the past to approving projects such as the one planned by Adelson the severe economic crisis has led many to believe that this time might be different. Unemployment in Spain remains above 20% and the economy is projected to shrink another 1.7% in 2012. Adding large casinos such as the “Eurovegas” project would not only provide an injection of new construction jobs but also tens of thousands of permanent jobs as well once the complex was constructed, with potentially billions in additional tax revenues collected from the millions of tourists that visit Spain each year from around the world.

“All In” Poker Movie Hits the Theaters

“All In” Poker Movie Hits the Theaters
24 March 2012 | By: Seth Shafer The new poker movie “All In: The Poker Movie” hit movie theaters last week, with the film taking a close look at not just the booming poker industry in the US but also the impact of the US government’s actions on Black Friday in April 2011 when it moved to block many of the world’s top online poker sites. Directed by Douglas Tirola and produced by 4th Row Films, the movie tackles the big task of telling the story of poker in America, touching on different facets of the game and how it has evolved during its 200 years or so of being played in the US. While the entire history of poker in the US is touched upon, the primary focus of the film is the last decade or so of poker, which has been a particularly tumultuous time with the poker boom of the early to mid 2000s followed by the efforts of the US government to prevent US citizens from playing at online poker sites. “All In” doesn’t necessarily have an agenda behind it but it does go to great lengths to point out the ironic fact that a game so uniquely American — with millions of US citizens avidly playing poer every year — would become a target for government authorities who enacted laws to take the decision over whether or not to play online poker out of the hands of millions of residents. Many of poker’s top pros are interviewed and appear in the film (including Phil Hellmuth, Daniel Negreanu, Chris Ferguson, Greg Raymer, and Mike Sexton just to name a few) as well as industry insiders and executives as well as movie stars and entertainers such as Matt Damon and Kenny Rogers. The movie also touches on the Full Tilt debacle, although some poker players and fans may be disappointed to see that the company is largely spared and only mentioned in passing in connection to Black Friday, as the film was in post-production when Black Friday occured and wrapped up long before the more sordid Full Tilt details came to light. All in all, “All In” should appeal to casual and hardcore poker fans alike, although much of it won’t be new to serious poker fans. The film provides a brisk, well-paced look at the unique role poker plays in the US as well as some of the major changes that have occured over the last decade.

Macau Still Booming

Macau Still Booming
30 March 2012 | By: Seth Shafer Despite facing several headwinds the gambling boom in Macau shows no signs of slowing, with business booming in March and a record for gambling revenues within reach for the former Portugese colony that is now by far the world’s top gambling destination by revenue. Early results for the first half of March showed revenues up 40% over the prior year, which would put March on pace to break the all-time record $3.35 billion that was wagered in Macau in October 2011. As far as market share, casinos operated by Stanley Ho’s SJM Holdings held about 28% of the Macau market, with Las Vegas Sands and Galaxy Macau both at 18%, and Wynn Macau (13%), Melco Crown (12%), and MGM China (11%) rounding out the rest of the pack. Macau has become an increasingly important source of revenues and profits for Las Vegas Sands, Wynn, and MGM, with results there now dwarfing the revenue taking in by their operations in Las Vegas (which traditionally was the primary focus for the Las Vegas-based gambling giants). Gambling revenues continue to grow in Macau despite the efforts of China to clamp down on junket operators that extend credit to high roller gamblers in Macau — primarily baccarat players — as well as a very public spat between Steve Wynn and former business partner Kazuo Okada centering on the possibility of bribes being paid to establish their operations in Macau. Macau’s success story is being emulated in other markets in Asia as well, with Singapore poised to also pass Las Vegas based on total gambling revenues per year — and with just two casinos currently operating in Singapore as opposed to the dozens that call Las Vegas home. Macau’s record growth likely won’t continue as some of the gambling appetite in Asia is sated but all signs point to the region solidly remaining the world’s top gambling destination based on revenue for decades to come, with its proximity to China guaranteeing a torrent of gambling dollars to continue to stream into Macau.
