Where do they think they’ll get the money to gamble? Will they be betting their lives on it or what?
@Brian Bianco And I wish to add that I believe Virtual Reality will replace the ‘ Exuberance Experience we psychologically associate with ‘gambling’ and especially the experience of Old Vegas, not Vegas Lite.
The user of a Virtual Reality Software for a Vegas Experience will still be able to gamble ( there are a gazillion online gambling websites now ) Plus they will be able to visually ‘enjoy’ the shows.
Brick and Mortar is Dead
@RaFari1119 Bee and for all we know, once everything goes back to normal, there could be a surge of people wanting to go out to eat, go on a vacation and just get out of the house. Speaking for myself, I’m ready to pump money back into the economy. I can’t wait to talk to people face to face. I can’t wait to go to concerts again. I’m taking a vacation once this all subsides some.
@RaFari1119 Bee I wouldn’t say brick and mortar is dead, but it has changed and it will adapt. It won’t be what we once saw, but in my opinion there will always be a need for certain brick and mortar businesses.
I’m in NJ…..one of the states hardest hit by the coronavirus, but our on-line gambling revenue is through the roof. And like I mentioned before, when I go to the store in the morning, there are people lined up to buy hundreds of dollars in lottery numbers.
On-line gambling is a thing, but it can’t replace the casino experience. People go to casinos for a date night, to go out to eat, to see a show, to go shopping………you can’t replace some of these things with an online experience.
369 you haven’t read the democrats 3 trillion stimulus? They are going to give us a lot more money even for undocumented people. That’s enough for gambling too.
@Brian Bianco First of all, we have to have a job or a source of income (OR CREDIT ) to ‘pump’ anything.
As mentioned , I think the Middle Class was the Bread and Butter of Vegas Revenue Source, and the Middle Class is dying and it’s about to get worse.
Vegas and the Middle Class and Credit are all joined at the Hip.
Many Credit Card companies are cutting the cardholders credit limit in half.
Just because we ‘want’ to do something doesn’t mean we can, or will.
I think you’re not understanding the Big Picture.
And I hate to be the bearer of bad news but The Phoenix that Rises Out of these cOVID Ashes ain’t gonna be the same Bird that went in.
I believe that the so called ‘ cOVID’ is not over, and we are going to see some very dramatic changes before the year is out, not only globally, but especially The New Atlantis ( we know as America )
We are shifting Ages from the Industrial Age to the Silicon ( Age ) i.e. The Fourth Industrial Revolution.
With the advancement of technology : Autonomous, IOT, UBI, Smart Cities, Quantum Computing, Deep Mind, Deep Fakes, QRCodes/cashless/ Digital Dollars, The Share Economy, The End of Private Ownership, Privatization of WATER, AGTECH Farming, *******THE END OF FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT****** (TRAVEL, whether by foot , to enter into a Brick and Mortar Public Building ( like a Restaurant Grocery Store, Casino ect ) or to Travel by Air, or Mass Transit, or to drive ) is going to be a privilege and NOT a right to be determined by our Social Credit Score ( see link )
If we are not an asset, we are a liability.

@Joaquin Lomeli based on amnesty and other bs democrats are trying to sneak in.. *THATS A FACT*
@TraRob-EastSide what the hell are you talking about lol what does amnesty have anything to do with this. Are you one of those conspiracy theorist lol dude, amnesty is not even mentioned in the bill, where the hell did you hear that fake news from? FOX NEWS? Well I’m sorry to tell you but amnesty is not on the bill, if you believe it is than prove it. Send me a link that shows that amnesty is on the bill and I guarantee you won’t be able to because it’s not on there but if you’re so sure that it’s a fact then you shouldn’t have trouble finding that link to prove it *FROM A CREDIBLE NEWS OUTLET.*
Sorry, that money went into making the Space Force flag.
the biggest gamble is if you’ll ever get another paycheck from munchkin and the mob.
@Nicolas Mahone yeah what a stupid military branch, space force lol what a joke
Taking a trip to Vegas is pretty much risking your life at this point. IM GOOD ON Vegas for a while!!!
@Straight Trip’n Quarantine’ is when you restrict the movement of sick people.
‘Tyranny’ is when you restrict the movement of healthy people.
Thundertrain you’re delusional and I belong to no party. All politicians are liars.
Yup. As a FORMER frequent Vegas party’r I will not be returning to Vegas for a very long long time.
Then stay in your safe space cupcake!!!😝

Im sure ALL machines will be rigged to suck money and not put out! They’ve lost so much money, they wont allow anyone to win a thing!
@Brian J. Wood they actually pay out more than 75%. Most people won’t admit it, but if they hit for $500 on a slot, they just put it back in……most people. It’s not like how when the mob ran things lol…..
@Brian Bianco how long have you worked there?
@All Abored I never have, but I’m aware of some of the laws that casinos have to abide by. There’s casinos in NJ and they have the same type of gaming laws. Casinos have to payout an X amount of money from what they take in. Las Vegas law is 75%, but casinos pay out more than that. They could pay out just 75% so yes, they can fix the machines to pay out less, but anything under 75% would be against the law and the Las Vegas gaming commission would find out about it. Every casino has their payout percentages reported……
Now cruise ships…..you might as well throw your money overboard. Those machines are not regulated and they are not required to report their payout percentages.
WHO HAS MONEY TO GAMBLE ?
@Mykee Wattz my state just had a record month in revenue for on-line gambling. 85 million for April and around 70 million in March……
Didn’t you hear?
The new casino is the Stock Market.
Meat city. 1951 this market (covid market) too risky for new traders in terms of options.
Butterfly works if moves are huge (5-15%+). Iron condors work if flunctuates up and down sideways 1-5%.
Cash secure calls are great.
If play naked calls, only do tiny amount (1-10% total buying power) with rest in cash.
Invest with Kevin G You sound very knowledgeable. Are you a mkt maker or something or a financial adviser . ? . Speaking of coved how are they going to trade in those pits with everyone on top of each other yelling and spitting on each other. ? I actually developed tinnitus from working there
@latieraqueen87 Pacheco Hola
Gambling here https://youtu.be/qzyMXHU_1qE
Invest with Kevin G I told my wife it was going to happen. He exhibited a lot of gambling behaviors. They were convinced he was “smart” and had a “system.” But when they told me he lost $30k and then made $90k two weeks later I knew he’d either be a millionaire or broke. Can’t stop that kind of reinforcements. People with PHDs building algorithms to try and predict the stock market lose millions of dollars, and I’ve told this to them. He’s in construction, but it doesn’t matter how smart you are if you don’t have the education and experience to back it up.
It’s quite sad though because they wanted to use that money to buy a house and take care of their parents.
You only live once, financial hardship come and go regardless how broke you are.
It not worth gambling your life for money.
You’re not even gambling to MAKE money as odds are you will LOSE money.
So you’re gambling your life to lose money and make casino owners rich (except Trump who couldn’t even make money out of a casino)
@Ash Roskell still on the casino kick, Sal Alinsky? So, the opening of INDIAN Casinos, and 100s of other electronic casinos opening along with the housing crisis had NO bearings on casinos in Atlantic City. Dr Fauci needs to find you a cure mental midget……………
Loser
@Joe Po And yet, knowing all this, Trump the “great businessman” put all his eggs in an AC Casino and had to get his Daddy to bail him out until he finally folded.
Didn’t he lose over a billion as seen in his tax returns from the 80s and 90s… Seems the con man has been lying about his great wealth for years. His Daddy left him HUNDREDS of millions and he blew through it with his dumb ideas that somehow always failed. I mean, how could selling STEAKS through Sharper Image fail? It sounds like a slam dunk – if you’re an utter moron. All Trump does is scams. Scam University. Scam “charity” Foundation. Scam Pyramid scheme with Trump TV and his “healthcare” line a la Elizabeth Holmes.
He’s a fucking con artists who preys on the dumb and over emotive.
this pandemic is serious and far from being over this shows how much life has changed forever.
NO its not..people will forget this virus existed month the most when is all open ……i know from my country…almost 2 months everything closed ..very little people outside…when number were down (20 days with 0 case in my town) and almost everything open(except night clubs ,festivals and big crowds) everything was like before after just few days..
wow another expert heard from
say another CNN skeered lemming
Coronavirus is a hoax
have no fear cuz we are in the End Times. Find Jesus cuz Rapture is any day
Sad for the employees but I dont see ppl hsving money to gamble again for a very long time.
@Kobe Bryant LMAOOOOOOOO people with money like that aren’t on youtube making others feel bad hahahahaha
Never mind the money part, I just don’t see people wanting to do it because they’re constantly bombarded with lysol sprays and tape measure for areas to stand. They literally took the whole damn world back to kindergarten.
@Joaquin Lomeli don’t then. If you’re scared, stay home. 🤷🏻
@CJoe 1111 you can’t do that otherwise you get fired or that counts as quitting for refusing to return to work. Therefore, I have no choice but what I’m saying is it’s not the smart thing to do when coronavirus is very much alive and spreading.
@Joaquin Lomeli what line of work are you in?
Wouldn’t it be nice to visit Vegas in the future as a Real Desert Ghostown 🤪🤪🤪
Don’t get me excited lol I hope you’re right. I live in Vegas and don’t want to get covid19
Yes, the game Fallout: New Vegas was exactly that…
Planning on reshooting resident evil apocalypse?
Welcome to Governor of Poker
@Some Person yes and all of us that live here will be the infected zombies
The casino operators are “ready” to start taking your money again.
I spent my last two trips white water rafting and snowboarding. They cost $ but I have the experience. Dumping $ into a video slot machine is not a vacation.
unee op Nevada has a lot to offer as far as options for your vacation. Thanks for spending time and making memories.
@unee op If you think that’s all there is to do in Vegas, then you clearly have never been there
https://youtu.be/qzyMXHU_1qE
You’re high if you think that’s going to be effective 😂.
If not for the media, the country would be open, never closed.
“You’re high if you think that’s going to be effective” – that’s a pretty white thing to say
@sno86 the hell with the homeless, it’s a grown up world, live like one, I have no mercy for them. My opinion only.
I agree. No chance this works. But I don’t care. I think the whole distancing is useless.
@Danny Burke They should never have shutdown any part of the country by now a million of the sickly heard would have died off and the rest of us could belly up to the Casino tables and buffet style hog troughs. That’s sarcasm in case you missed it you fat dumb happy jackass.
I hope the casino falls and never rises again. So many ppl lives have been destroyed due to the gambling addiction that the casino feed off of.
@drew0720 lol well I’m not an addict so why are you saying it’s my fault lol I don’t have a gambling problem hahaha so I’m I not allowed to agree with others any more without being judged? Lol you agree with your master trump, does that mean your a victim lol and plus who gives a crap what anyone thinks. Why are you still crying about this, who cares who fault it is, grow up lol I’m over this conversation, your crying bores me. Damn, you can’t say anything now and days without being sooooo sensitive about everything. You people get so triggered and offended for the smallest thing that doesn’t even matters who cares! Lol stop being a snowflake
@drew0720 sensitive, triggered, snowflake, offended… yet again. Now storming off like a dramatic girl. Just chill. Lol
@Joaquin Lomeli I am chill. look who is barking like a little dog.

Who cares about Nevada. Every one who lives there deserves to lose their lively hood. No such thing as a casino who cares about people.
Ha! Who’d be stupid enough to go? There are other ways to gamble without risking your life.
Arthur Kitchen Then your expenses are too high. Cut out the porn rentals. It’s free on the web.
Some Person how can you make such an ignorant statement without knowing my income or situation? $20,000 in savings is what I had and it goes fast, especially since my alcohol and drug use has gone up considerably!! You’re way out of your leave and probably have a shitty, $60K job.
@denise lewis break ins and street crimes
Gambling is an addiction, many will risk everyone for a dose.
The ultimate gamble, is to gamble with your life
People can’t lose their money now? Travesty. Maybe they can buy groceries or pay child support. Lol social distancing is not going to work in a casino.
Social distanceing is the biggest hoax in history. It does not have any effect
Michael Liles … what about the people who depend on income to feed their family like YOU do?
Easy solution music condom don’t worry about child support become a farmer don’t worry about food then you can spend your money at the casino
Or buy guns and Ammo and body armor and training ??That’s important for what is coming
Did he just say, “All we we can do is listen to the experts..” THE EXPERTS ARE TELLING YOU TO STAY CLOSED!!!!!
@James Clark oh i will be voting and so will my sin who turned 18 😱😱another vote for Trump not used in 2016 lmao.
@Chris DiDomenico Again… PLEASE!!!! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD! Do not breed, or vote… It’s your civic duty to refrain from both…
@James Clark lmao lmao, you are a joke lmao. Thanks for the laugh libtard lmao.
@Chris DiDomenico I’m going to leave you to your own thoughts now… I know it’s a scary place that you live in… But there is a way out.
I’ve shown you where the door is, and the keys are in you pocket. It’s up to you… Just walk on through. Good luck, and god bless you…
@James Clark lmao, you’re a joke lmao.
Casinos should have been doing this type of deep cleaning all along. Airlines as well.
Ted Montana you’re still a jabroni and a Baka.
@Lance Tardiff It is Pelosi(the mass murderer who is blaming trump, but not China.
@Lance Tardiff And tests are overrated. There is no science to support them.
You’re most in danger at home now, according to NY Governor Cuomo. Did you not hear that?
NY Gov Cuomo, at 2 mins into this vid, states (in response to new data), “This is a surprise. Overwhelmingly the majority….66% of people were AT HOME! The vast majority of new cases is coming from people quarantining at home, which is shocking to us.” Andrew Cuomo, Dem. Gov. Of NY.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EPWfwdmRsHE. At the 5 min mark you can hear some surprising comments at Cali protest.
brian woodward oh brother. You right wingers are unbelievably gullible and naive. 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Yeah I won’t find myself on a cruise ship, in a casino, or in any large crowded events any time soon.
You’re smart!!!
Danny Burke Good luck with that. Let us know how that goes. Give us an update in a couple of weeks.
@mattizzle Soda stay hidden in your hovel little lemming
@reelreeler A lemming is one who follows others to their death. That is you, not me.

“I can’t gamble”
This, apparently, is a problem on planet earth.
Josh Kans I don’t understand how you think your fear gives you the right to decide what others do.
Because your scared doesn’t give you or anybody else the right to dictate how a free society lives their lives. You have the right to freely be scared but others have the right to not be. That’s how freedom works. Not to be controlled by a dictatorship of power hungry controlled government officials. This isn’t China or any other authoritarian government.
Josh Kans and how do I know I’m part of the survived that haven’t got it because I’m still alive dumbass.
I can’t work even though less than .00001% of my county is infected…
@Josh Kans imagine infected people touching the gas pump, everything at the grocery store, etc. 🤤
Not having freedom is the problem you moron.
Who is going to have money to gamble? No one has jobs!
@sdsteve1000 so now you want to gamble?
go for it i guess
