Another down month in the casinos reported as a gain based on adding Internet Gaming. Even the net gaming had a small drop from March, weather perhaps?

Caesars AC had a great month at the tables, actually making more than Borgata, which is the first time I remember seeing that. Perhaps a Whale had a bad trip?

Revel continues to show 55% growth, though still 3rd worst in revenue ahead of only Resorts and Trump Plaza.

It would be nice to see the game-by-game breakdown to see how caesar's did so well. Sucks they got rid of that.

just a wild hunch, but I suspect that certain gamblers like myself who are not pleased with the DEQ progressive changes at Borgata (including the new 3Card payout tables) have decided to give Caesar's another shot. I personally feel more comfortable in Caesar's Asian games/PGP pit as well.

Caesar's won 31.8% of the drop on table games - that's huge! Something unusual was going on.

Well, they stopped Lemieux66 from playing there - that boosts revenue immediately!

Holding 31.8% is super high but not unheard of......wait for their results of next month. Variance works both ways :)

I was actually going to make a joke about that MYSELF, but then I thought people wouldn't believe what I was saying if I said that.

Besides, Caesars casinos don't have good rules(not sure about Harrahs)

The May reports are just in, and bad news for AC casinos again.

Wow! Another drop by 8% in May...Hmmm... I wonder why? A hint: Sands offers (1) the best busing program, (2) the best 3:2 double-deckers & (3) the best 3:2 6deckers with all the good bj rules; where as an AC casino offers the worst 6:5 8deckers with bad rules, & it freezes your comp dollars any time... bad deal combination like a time bomb. Who the hell wants to play in AC, except for morons?

If Sands offered consistent buses to and from NYC, I would go.

Not sure, but I usually go at night after work at Port Authority. No bus at that time.

Another one leaves at 7:15 from Gate 8. A half-dozen in between go to the two terminals in Bethlehem. The company is TransBridge and its Web site is transbridgelines.com. It lists round-trip at $30 with $45 back in slot play.

I literally get to Port Authority at like 750 at earliest. I would rather not get off at the Bethlehem stop either.

It depends if it's 2:1 or not. If it's 1:1 I'm all for it.

Last time I checked Borgata does not let you use your comps on headliners.

I'm all for shift bosses having extra work however I assume he would like some cash value for them. Anytime you can convert comps to cash its a good thing. Why would he want to keep messing around, they could end up just taking them again.

They won't do that. DGE settled it with them and I can just call them again if Borgata messes with me. It's a big time waste of money for me to use anything that's 2:1 there because I still have black label benefits there which makes the buffet cost 10 in comps. Dinner there cost like 31 bucks usually.

Shed not for her the bitter tear Nor give the heart to vain regret Tis but the casket that lies here, The gem that filled it Sparkles yet
