I am proposing to all GTC partners, instructors, mentors, grads and students, that we should all get together and open up
"Golden Touch Casino and Spa Resort"
The Revel will accept any financially backed offer of $100 million or better. The hotel cost $2.3 billion dollars to construct and open. It is a financial steal. And on the bright side, we don’t have to rent out space in other hotels to teach the class anymore. Anyone in???
And if $100 million is just too much, we can probably offer Caesars $25 million for the Showboat!

Is that .00001% for each of you or is that combined?

Showboat is a possibility but no one has been able to make it work so far. I don’t know what could change that around given the competition.

From what I hear, Caesars is making a run at REVEL — Showboat is closing on 8/31 (The "old" rumor was that Hard Rock was going to buy Showboat, but it did not happen)
I also heard from the REVEL dealers/supv’s that a very famous individual / property guy (think of a Vegas hotel north of The Venetian) was in AC looking at the REVEL property
REVEL’s casino is kind of small and I’m pretty sure that the smart & savvy craps players (if such a thing) will not frequent REVEL too much
REVEL is beautiful and they have the best drinks, nicest rooms, and hottest waitresses in AC. The late-night "eye candy" is awesome on Friday & Saturday nights
But, I’d rather play "serious" craps at a few other "select" casinos

Am I misunderstanding you post? Are you saying the Revel casino is SMALL? On the contrary it is huge.

It takes me twice as long to walk around 2 of the 3 Marina Casinos as it does to walk around the REVEL

on one side we have danger and on the other side we have opportunity.
Remember "Never let a crisis go to waste?" Who said dat?
The casino workers know of the danger of losing their jobs.
Now they should call on their unions and members to sieze the opportunity
to own their casino.
They definitely "know better than their owners" how to run the place.
$20,000,000 for the casino amounts to $10,000 from each of 2,000 employees in that casino.
The unions must be sitting on a lot of cash they have been squeezing out of those greedy capitalists.
There’s a local supermarket here that is doing very well with employees who share ownership.
You can see it in the service you get whn you shop there.
Wouldn’t you like to go to a casino run by owner/employees? Would the service be better?

As a boy, my family and I used to go to the Catskills, and I have heard since forever-and-a-day that Gambling will revitalize the area, well, yeah, but now it seems the day has come.

I live newar NYC, and for me, the closest area is in Tuxedo Park, in a place called Woodbury common. That is a mere 45 mins from where I am. And for a weekend trip, I could drive up to where the Concorde used to be. Now, granted, these casinos are still being built, but if you have been paying attention (as I have) to some of the specific language of the law, the language is clear that whoever is granted a license MUST have their hotel operational in 2 years.
The motivation for the granting of licenses in New York is to motivate New York players from going to CT or Atlantic City, and keeping those dollars in New York.
I look forward to going back up to the Catskills again. I just hope that Mal Z Lawrence is still performing once the Hotels are open.
