Why is it an unpopular opinion to state the truth and the obvious? We all know the harms of second hand smoke, we know only 11.5% of the US Smokes. Yet casinos continue to ‘believe’ that all gamblers smoke and that they’d lose business if they removed smoking. Well thank goodness for Resorts (and others) for making a move so that cigar smokers have to walk a few steps away from the table to have a cigar now. This is pure smoke and mirrors which solves nothing but give the illusion that they’re doing good. We all know you can smell a cigar a hundred feel away, meaning we are actively breathing in those toxic chemicals regardless of distance. We need people in power who are strong enough to speak up. Strong enough to do their own fact finding to see what gamblers really want. Willing to take a stand for what we ALL know is right. Seek out advice of heads of casinos who are nailing it now and are smokefree like parx casino , Yaamava' Resort & Casino at San Manuel , Mohegan Sun , Foxwoods Resort Casino . I applaud them for sticking to being majority smokefree and killing the competition. There comes a time when you have to catch up with the times and you’re already behind it. Close the loophole everywhere and make casinos smokefree like every other professional building, entertainment complex or boardwalk/beach in Atlantic City.

Mark Cuban's Vision for a Resort Casino in Dallas: A Game-Changer for Texas Mark Cuban's recent sale of his majority stake in the Dallas Mavericks is reigniting interest in a transformative project for Dallas. Here's what's on the horizon: Innovative Partnership: Cuban is exploring a partnership with Miriam Adelson and Las Vegas Sands Corp. to create a destination casino and resort in Dallas, featuring a new arena for the NBA team, contingent on the legalization of gambling in Texas. Proven Success Model: David Cordish, CEO of Cordish Cos., known for Texas Live in Arlington, supports this concept. His experience with successful casino and entertainment complexes nationwide suggests this could be a "winning formula" for Dallas. Strategic Location: The potential location for this ambitious project is still under discussion, with suggestions to integrate it with the nearly $3 billion redevelopment of the Dallas Convention Center, aiming to make Dallas a premier resort destination. https://lnkd.in/gvx6Krks #landsales #landinvestment #dfwrealestate #DFWRealEstate #CREInvestment #MarketLeadership #RealEstateTrends

If it is true that a rising tide lifts all boats (and pardon the irony of the maxim in this case) then yesterday’s ground breaking for a new gaming property in Bossier City bodes well for northwest Louisiana. The 5 “riverboats”, once the pride of Louisiana’s gaming portfolio, have fallen victim to the rapid expansion of Oklahoma tribal casinos in recent years. The market isn’t dead, but it’s been on life support for far too long. In 2007 the gross gaming revenue for the area’s casinos was $752 million. It has since shrunk to $582 million. It's worth noting that those latest figures would not have been appreciably higher had the shuttered Diamond Jacks been operational and contributing to the revenue bottom line. The previous owners went to bat and struck out twice at moving the license to south Louisiana. The pandemic gave those same owners a convenient excuse to close the Bossier location permanently, and they did it in the most disrespectful way. Hundreds of employees learned of the abrupt closure from a social media post or TV reports. In an instant they were out of a job. Thereafter, the abandoned property became an eyesore, its location adjacent to highly travelled I-20. It would become a festering and fetid reminder of what happens when the state trusts an owner to be a responsible corporate gaming citizen. So much for trust. But what Cordish promises to bring to the area can be the catalyst for reinvestment by nearby competing properties. Hopefully other legacy “boats” will find their path onto dry land. To be sure there are challenges ahead for Shreveport-Bossier City gaming, but for the first time in more than a decade there is hope and potential opportunity. Execution and commitment will ultimately be the variables which determine the future success in the market. In any case Cordish has come to town bearing an early Christmas gift for the community and the state.  #gamingindustry #casinos #bossiercity #shreveport https://lnkd.in/dippvYkv
