About-Face in Florida
Whether you see her as fickle, pragmatic or politically opportunistic, it’s been fascinating to watch the evolution of Florida Rep. Ellyn Bogdanoff. The Fort Lauderdale Republican, who campaigned alongside former Governor Jeb Bush on an anti-gaming platform, is today working alongside Las Vegas Sands CEO […]
Flights of Fancy
In recent weeks, commissioners in Miami-Dade County, Florida, voted 8-3 to let the county manager seek a permit that would allow the county to apply for a state license for slot machines at Miami International Airport.
It’s an out-of-left-field notion, to be sure, but the county’s collective aviation facilities are struggling with $600 million in annual […]
Carrot-and-stick game with South Florida Seminoles
Last Tuesday, a sweeping majority in the Florida House voted to approve legislation that would limit expansion of gaming at seven Seminole tribe casinos, expand gaming somewhat outside South Florida, and also give a few much-needed breaks to the parimutuel industry.
The next day, the Seminoles, arm-in-arm with their business partner, Governor Charlie Crist, dropped a […]

The compact was signed in haste to get the state a piece of the gaming revenue pie as the federal Interior Department was poised to grant the […]

The purchase of Trump Marina in Atlantic City by Coastal Marina LLC for $316 million, and its transformation into a Jimmy Buffet Margaritaville Hotel Casino, is being questioned for several reasons.
The difficult credit market would be the first hurdle to overcome. Established casino companies have had trouble coming up with financing for many projects, and […]
Nose Under the Tent
Looks like Miami is finally going to get slots. A vote last week overwhelmingly approved slots at three parimutuel facilities: a racetrack, a dog track and a jai alai fronton. The vote in Miami Dade County comes two years after a similar vote in Broward County approved slots at parimutuels in that jurisdiction, just north […]
