Re: [vpFREE] Re: Bankruptcy a financial tool?

 

Nope, read my message again. NJ is trying to open their gambling web sites to *international* customers. So there really isn't a federal law that bars international players "coming" here (virtually). The fed Wireless Act is about US citizens using overseas sites - but there's nothing about overseas citizens using US sites. 

If NJ succeeds in doing that then they will have won and potentially helped CET quite a bit. If they don't, then nothing but negative things will happen.

Re: [vpFREE] Bankruptcy a financial tool?

 

Understood and I retract my troll comment. 

I think we are in agreement. Don't confuse my analysis for sympathy - I don't care much for casino companies either. The fact that Gary Loveman has a job is astonishing to me. I think that a CET failure (which is inevitable) would add confusion to the market sector but would ultimately be a good thing. 

I'm smarter than the average bear when it comes to online gaming and I work in the sector (that's all I'm going to say about that). Here's the lynchpin - if NJ can pass a bill through their legislature that allows international players to use their online sites, then NJ wins all the marbles - the battle for online gaming would be over and CET would be a very strong beneficiary of that. Anything short of that and (1) NJ will never attain reasonable gaming revenue and (2) CET will fail as a company. 

Mark my words. You read it here first.

for casinos. I feel sorry for us players who have endured the cutbacks

Re: [vpFREE] Bankruptcy a financial tool?

 

I have a feeling that I'm feeding a troll here with the typical "screw the little guy" attitude, but . . .

The answer is - it depends. In the case of Caesars they are doing terribly on an operational basis (or pro forma) so yes, some suppliers will get screwed. 

However, a lot of their debt is from real estate notes and holdings. The investors behind those are unlikely to let those go quickly. So a breakup of the company, almost literally on a property-by-property, geographic basis, would most likely ensue. There would also be the case of the online side of Caesars, the CIE portion. That has direct ties to both Nevada and New Jersey, even on a licensing basis (NJ requires each online gaming license to be associated with a brick and mortar casino within the state). So that would add an additional layer of confusion since those licenses may ( or may not) appreciate over time.
