casino 300x226 Quebec Gambling Quebec is a province in the eastern part of Canada. Government of Quebec is facing much scrutiny over a plan for the Montreal racetrack. The administrations are attempting to turn the track into a special gambling complex. The city feels that the administration is breaching a prior agreement by doing so. City Councilor Marvin Rotrand said the government had promised that the racetrack as well as every gambling activity would be moved out of the area. He said in its place would be the development of a residential neighborhood. According to him “It (housing) would not only give young families the opportunity to remain in the city, it would attract suburbanites back in the city. It’s nonsense for a valuable piece of land of this size and scope so close to downtown, so close to the airport, across for the metro, near to several auto routes to lie empty year after year.”

Already the administration has proposed the gambling complex as part of a huge bailout package. On the other hand, the opposition to the package has come fast and furious. Last Monday some groups are expected to publicly oppose the bail out. Rotrand said, “The government would have to impose this on us.” Rotrand has been a city councilor for a long time. He thinks that he has enough support to stop the governments’ efforts and use the land for what it was actually intended for. However, there is a possibility till now that the bail out package for the racetrack can fall through. More to the point that breeders and horsemen are against the recent version of the bail out, this can cause it to fall apart all together. So, the productivity of current bail out now totally depends on time.

Sports betting on Super Bowl Declines in Las Vegas

February 8th, 2009 admin News 0

It looks like that gambling is loosing its interest from the people. Nevada is the only state that allows betting on sport and recent figure shows that betting on the Super Bowl has dropped 11% from last year’s game. The Las Vegas sportsbook took in $81.5 million in wagers on the Super Bowl game, which is considered the biggest sports betting event in the United States. But according to the Nevada Gaming Control Board, the sportsbooks in Nevada made $6.7 million in profit from the 2009 Super Bowl, which is much better than the last year’s loss of $2.5 million.

However, the 11% drop in the sport betting made the 2009 worse since 2004, balancing with the declining revenues in casinos nation-wide, shows that the downturn has indeed hit the gambling industry. And although the online sportsbooks which allow people from the United States to bet on sports do not disclose any revenue information, some sportsbook managers have confirmed that there is at least a single-digit decline in bets across the board.

Both Parties Come Together to Stop Gambling Expansion in Florida

February 1st, 2009 admin News 0

gambling 300x200 Both Parties Come Together to Stop Gambling Expansion in Florida Florida, a state of USA, is in an odd situation when it comes to expanded gambling involving the Seminole Indians as well as their casinos. For that, a compact needs to be completed, but legislators, both of the Democrat and Republican, are showing special interests in front of the good of Florida. Governor Charlie Crist is inciting several of his fellow Republicans by crossing party lines. He is lobbying for the completion of the Seminole Indians casino compact that Crist originally signed back in 2007. However, the conservative Republicans do not want any type of expanded gambling in Florida.

Democrats are saying thanks, but no thanks, to Charlie Crist. They are supportive of expanded casino gambling in Florida. But they cannot go with the compact as most of the Democrats in power in the state have ties to South Florida’s pari-mutuel tracks. That has made the business of completing the compact with the Seminoles just about impossible task. If the compact, as written, was put in place, the Seminoles would have had blackjack and baccarat totally to themselves. On the other hand, Democrats will be lobbying to facilitate if a compact with the Seminoles is signed, that the individuality part should be taken out. If that is achieved, then they can start to lobby for pari-mutuels to be allowed the Las Vegas table games as well.

Republicans do not like any of these outcomes. They are fighting to get no compact and no expanded gambling laws. That would leave them searching to put back the millions of dollars that would be lost from extra gambling revenue. It is first time, Democrats and Republicans have team up for a common cause in a long time in the state history.
