F rench Prime Minister Jean Castex announced last week that the reopening of casinos, among other businesses, has been postponed until at least the end of January. After hoping they would be able to reopen on December 15, then on January 7, casinos have to wait until the end of January to know if they will be allowed to reopen in early February 2021, Sortiraparis.com reports. “Reopening conditions are not met”, the PM said. To avoid a third wave that France feels is coming, the government wishes to minimize flows and gatherings of people. “The health situation could be worse…

A ccording to reports released last week by Ohio’s casino control and lottery commissions, gambling revenue for 2020 overall was down $500 million, mainly the result of full and partial closings ordered by Gov. Mike DeWine due to Covid concerns.  However, when fully operating last year, the casino and racino industry enjoyed record performances, Cleveland.com reports. Gambling revenue totaled $1.44 billion for 2020 at the 11 facilities across Ohio, down 26% from a record $1.94 billion in 2019. This is the money kept by casinos and racinos after paying out winnings. About a third of it is then forwarded to…

H o-Chunk Incorporated has recently launched a new division to manage and operate the expansion of casino gaming at three existing horse racing tracks in Nebraska. Ho-Chunk CEO Lance Morgan said each of those facilities will be in the $200 million cost range and compete with Iowa casinos in nearby Council Bluffs. “The competition in Council Bluffs is a little weak, they’ve been there for 25 years and they haven’t done much to change them.

 January 11, 2021 With the presidency of Donald Trump coming to an end, expectations are that Net Neutrality will return with the appointment of a new Chairman of the FCC. The current Chairman, Ajit Pai, is a Trump appointee. He has announced that he is leaving office by January 20th, leaving a legacy of higher internet prices. Pai helped to destroy Net Neutrality during his time at the helm of the FCC. And, as predicted, ISP costs to users have gone up since that time while performance has remained stagnant. Net Neutrality is the principle that all traffic on the…

If every gambler was lucky, casinos would quickly go out of business. Winning gamblers need a little bit of luck to hit the big jackpot. There are few skill-based games in the casino, and those require the knowledge of strategy to gain an edge over the house. After a lucky break at the casino, I spent some time genuinely considering the power of luck. Here’s what I’ve discovered. What Is Luck? Merriam-Webster defines “luck” in three different ways. The first definition from Webster has luck as, “a force that brings good fortune or adversity.” Along those same lines, it also…

Texas Hold’em is among the most popular casino games in the world and regarded as the most well-known variation of poker. That popularity is due to the game’s simplicity, unpredictability, and sheer entertainment value. As is the case with most casino games, myths about Hold’em are rampant and spread like wildfire. Many misconceptions relate to how the game’s supposed to be played and what it takes to be a smart player. These misconceptions tend to influence newer players who don’t know better. Unfortunately, they can be disastrous to their formative experiences and early playing days. If these pieces of fiction…

Sports gambling is a tricky business. Most gamblers typically either achieve minor success or flame out in a spectacular fashion. Whatever the case may be, they’re often susceptible to second-guessing every one of their moves. During this process, it’s easy to mentally get to a place where it seems like a good idea to engage in a complete system overhaul. Obviously, something needs to change, so why not change it entirely? Overreactions are typical when gambling, especially when wagering on sports. Instead of approaching the process with a level head, it’s often easier to be unrealistic and extreme. But changing…

NFL mock drafts are fun to follow for the NFL Draft enthusiast. But if you’re wagering your hard-earned money during April’s draft, should you take a mock draft seriously? The short answer is “yes” and “no.” Yeah, you can make a safe bet that a few of those 32 picks in the first round of a mock draft will win you some money — very few of those picks.  If you look at any mock draft from any NFL season, you can often see how low conversion percentages are, even among draft gurus like Mel Kiper.  So, if you’re wagering…
