\"Golden<\/a>Three more casinos have been green-lit to take Internet<\/strong> wagers along the Boardwalk. As you know, Borgata<\/strong> had already been approved. The second license went<\/a> to the Golden Nugget<\/strong>, which is running its own site, with assistance from Bally Technologies<\/strong>. Needless to say, the Golden Nugget’s resale value just got more than a little bump.\u00a0Close behind the Pepite d’Or<\/em> were the two Trump Entertainment Resorts<\/strong> properties. TER is to be applauded for getting on it while Revel Resort<\/strong> and Atlantic Club Hotel<\/strong> continue to dawdle. (I doubt that Atlantic Club owner Tom Barrack<\/strong> would recognize Internet gambling if he fell over it.) They should get with the program. As Dr. David G. Schwartz<\/strong> writes, it’s the beginning of one era … and the end of another<\/a>.
\nCaesars Entertainment<\/strong> is the emperor of social gaming, judging by a new report. The company’s market share and revenue haul are growing — as are those of International Game Technology<\/strong> — while Zynga<\/strong> is in freefall. While it’s hardly a comprehensive fix for Caesars’ problems, online gaming is an area in which CEO Gary Loveman<\/strong> is to be commended for his proactivity. So hail Caesars, for the time being.<\/p>\n

\"scott-walker1\"<\/a>A summit meeting between Wisconsin<\/strong> Gov. Scott Walker<\/strong> (R) and several of the state’s tribes took place yesterday, and accomplished precisely nothing<\/a>. It seems to have consisted of all four parties reiterating their previously stated positions, in a bit of political Kabuki theater. The Menominee Tribe<\/strong> seems no closer to a Dairyland casino than ever.<\/p>\n

The Arizona<\/strong> city of Glendale<\/strong> has decided to open negotiations over a tribal casino that it officially opposes. The convoluted saga of the\u00a0Tohono O\u2019odham Nation<\/strong> and its Phoenix<\/strong>-area casino bid defies easy summary. Even now, the Tohono O’odham are fighting on five other fronts, including Capitol Hill<\/strong>. Glendale’s demi concession is, to paraphrase Winston Churchill<\/strong>, not the beginning of the end but it is the end of the beginning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
