`THE AGENDA
`
`Paul Dworin, Publisher
`
`A Battle
`Is Brewing
`A s that Nc:w York Yankee Hall
`
`of Fame catcher, ersatz
`philosopher and maste.r of the
`malapropism Yogi Berra once pro-
`claimed, "It's deja vu all over again."
`Only in this case, "It's ya visto all over
`again" would be more appropriate
`because Yogi, my muse in so many areas,
`would be talking about the trade show
`war currently being fought in Argentina.
`Reminiscent of the early full ot2001
`when the fledgling Global Gaming Expo
`(G2E) was launched in direct competition
`to the then-mighty World Gaming
`Con~ & Expo (WGCE)-with both
`events being held two weeks apart in the
`same venue--therc a.re now two trade
`shows battling for market share and
`supremacy in the Latin American market.,
`with the two events being held at vinually
`the same time early next month.
`The nc:w show, in its second year, is
`the Latin American Gaming Expo (LGE),
`which is a joint venture between AlAJA
`(The Latin American Association of ·
`Games of Chance) and E.J. Krause &
`Reed Exhibitions. The old show, now in
`its 12th year, is the South American
`Gaming Suppliers Expo (SAGSE), which
`is produced by Monografie, a private com(cid:173)
`pany that also publishes coffee table books
`on casinos around the world.
`Just as the G2E was launched due to
`market concerns over the management of
`the WGCE and the desire by the U.S.
`gaming industry's trade association, the
`AGA, to have a show "by the industry
`for the benefit of the industry," the LGE
`was launched last year as a result of mar(cid:173)
`ket concerns over the management of
`SAGSE and the desire of the Latin
`American gaming industry's trade associ(cid:173)
`ation, AI.AJA, to have a show produced
`"by the industry for the industry."
`And, just as it did in 2001 with the
`G2E and WGCE, cwo shows being
`held two weeks apart in the same loca(cid:173)
`tion in 2003 created market confusion,
`market fragmentation and two less(cid:173)
`than-stellar events.
`Recognizing that two shows were
`untenable in a rather stagnant market,
`Gabriel Pascual, managing director of
`E.K. Krause and Reed Exhibitions, recent(cid:173)
`ly extended an olive branch of sorts to
`Giorgio Gennari Lina. the head of
`
`Monografie. In an open letter to the indus(cid:173)
`try on August 30, 2004, Pascual wrote:
`"Nowadays thm's a pointkss fight betwtm
`both shows and we mrmgly think, ·as businas(cid:173)
`mm, that this has to changr, we mutt kaw
`"'" own intemts behind to pvt priority to
`what the market is asking.for.
`"Our proposal, now mmk pu/Jlic through
`this letter, was simpk, fair for both silks, and
`aimed to include the focal industry. add the
`intnnationa/ agrtemmts and bring anything
`that can add to the project to be abk to gmer(cid:173)
`au a rtai/y strong ewnt that cou./4 become the
`thirp most important mule show in the world
`aftir LAs Vegas and London.
`"wt proposed a 50150 deal; today we
`know what both evmts have separately. wt
`prbposed to gmerau a nnu brand for the fair,
`or join the existing one. wt proposed to add
`both organizations as sponsors, as we/I a.s
`adding intnnationaJ bodies. In short, our
`po1ition was one of trying to gmmzu a nnu
`evmt that would have the strmgth of local
`and intnnationaJ companies and a/J the
`institutional mpport. "
`To no one's surprise, Lina rejected the
`offer and the situation continues, to every(cid:173)
`one's chagrin. The only thing I can say to
`Mr. Lina is: Remember what happened to
`the WGCE? No existe md!.
`Speaking of associations, it's more than
`past time for a strong, unified organization
`to arise in Europe to protect the interests of
`the industry against the indifference of the
`bureaucrats in Belgium. While there a.re a
`number of organizations that represent a
`variety of constituencies-from remote gam(cid:173)
`bling to betting to Western European opera(cid:173)
`tors-there is no single organization in
`Europe that speaks with one voice on behalf
`of all sectors of the indusuy.
`Never has this been more apparent and
`critical than with the recent issuance by the
`EU of the proposed anti-money laundering
`dircctivc, which was drafted with little if any
`input from the industry upon which it will
`have a tremendous impact.
`Who speaks for European gaming inter(cid:173)
`ests is a major subject for discuss.ion at this
`year's G2E, one of nearly 140 conference ses(cid:173)
`sions addressing a range of issues. Titled
`"Politics and the EU: Who Really Represents
`Gaming Interests in Brussels?" and sched(cid:173)
`uled for 9 a.m. on October 5, this session is
`a ml}!t for anyone concerned with the future
`health of the gaming indusuy in Europe. a

`
`Due Divestiture
`Harrah's, Colony Capital in talks over property sales
`H arrah's Entertainment and Colony Capital last month confirmed discussions
`
`were underway for Colony, the owner of Resorts Atlantic City and the Las Vegas
`Hilton, to buy four properties that are currently owned by Harrah's and Caesars
`Entertainment, which would be purchased by Harrah's under a pending $5.4 billion
`arrangement announced in July. Expercs believe
`the sales would help Harrah's receive rhe regula(cid:173)
`tory approvals necessa.ry to complete the deal.
`Colony, Harrah's and Caesars have exten(cid:173)
`sive experience dealing with each other.
`Colony sold its Harveys propercies in Lake
`Tahoe and Iowa to Caesars in the 1990s.
`Caesars recently completed the sale of rhe Las
`Vegas Hilton to Colony. The company also
`owns Resorts Arlantic City, which it bought
`from Kerzner Internacional.
`Sources say the deal was worth more than
`$1.25 billion and included the Atlantic City
`Hilton, Harrah's East Chicago, Harrah's
`Tunica, and Baily's Tunica. The deal came just days after Harrah's announced it had
`received a request from the Federal Trade Commission for more information concern(cid:173)
`ing the Caesars deal.
`Although Colony has a reputation for buying properties at a bargain and selling
`them at a profit, recent moves indicate the company may be interested in becoming a
`major player in the gaming industry. It recently opened a $90 million expansion ac
`Resom Arlantic City and has major plans to revive the fortunes of the Las Vegas Hilton.
`Harrah's had issued an RFP for the properties soon after the Caesars deal was
`announced. Although several companies reportedly responded, Colony made rhe top
`offer, which some analysts characterized as "top dollar."
`Still, the move was nor unexpected. The properties are not considered co be essencial
`to Harrah's goals since the company could still have a major presence in alJ three markers.
`The sale of Harrah's Ease Chicago is mandated by Indiana regulations that limit one
`company co the ownership of two properties. The sale would leave Harrah's in control of
`the Horseshoe in Hammond and Caesars in southern Indiana.
`In Tunica and Aclancic City, the Harrah's-Caesars merger would give the company
`control of approximately 50 percent of the market, and the sales of properties in chose
`jurisdictions may ease regulatory concerns. In Tunica, the company would retain Grand
`Casino, the Sheraton and the Horseshoe, while in Atlantic City, ic would be left with
`Harrah's, Showboat, Sally's and Caesars.

`a~ a rlflH law to regulate the
`province's horsemcioo ind6~, but turned
`down Cl bid by ~'1irlstall slot
`mad1i~and' legalize simulcasting.
`The measure rtt:NI goes to the Buenos
`Aires slal8 House of RepiaseulatiwtS
`for ralifiamcn.
`The-state's racing industry, led by the
`La Plato.and San Isidro tracb, lobbied
`heavily for slot machines, arguing that
`slots at the track- •rocinos"--ore the
`.
`industry's salvation.
`Pablo Piffonilti, head of San Isidro's
`racing committee, said the slale's senala
`show&d ~ts ~ on the matter" and
`
`added that the senatcrs 11118Y8r e>ep_lained

`Buenos Aires city--a different gowimmen(cid:173)
`tal entity from tlie province of Buenos
`Aires-ihe Hip6dromo de Palenno has

`the money the pnwince deriYaS from gam(cid:173)

`of simulcasting "international classics."
`
`California megacasino stalled,
`four others OK'd
`Bay area casino agreement scrutinized by opponents
`P !ans for California's first urban casino,
`expanded in 2008, and Schwarzenegger is
`seen as eager to get anything he can from trib-
`al compaas to counter a multibillion-dollar
`budget deficit.
`Legislacors in Sacramenco did OK four
`other casino proposals Schwarzenegger's
`administration packaged with the Lytton plan
`in hopes of speeding up to 25 percenc of each
`one's expected revenue into the busted-budget
`state's coffers. As required by state law, the leg-
`islature considered the governor's approval of
`gaming compacrs with:
`•The Coyote Valley Band of Pomo
`Indians, which wanes to expand its Ukiah-
`area casino, d osed by authorities in early
`summer for operating without a compact;
`• The Buena Vista Band R.ancheria,
`which plans a casino-resort in lone;
`•The Ewiiaapaayp Band of Indians,
`looking to operate in eastern San Diego
`County; and
`• The Fon Mojave Indian Tribe, which
`wanes to open a small gaming facility near
`che desert cown of Needles.
`
`one of the world's largest, are on hold
`for at least four monchs despite
`Governor Arnold Schwanenegger's approval.
`Stace lawmakers refused to rush co judgment
`on such a huge, controversial projecr--even
`scaled back by the Lytton Band of Pomo
`lndians from 5,000 co 2.500 slot machines
`to be installed at the tribe's San Pablo card
`room near San Francisco--<iuring the last
`days in August before they adjourned unriJ
`late December.
`The San Pablo casino controversy centers
`on the project's size, which astounded and
`alarmed many San Francisco Bay area resi-
`denis, politicians and card-room operators
`when Schwarzenegger announced the agree-
`ment last month. The governor, while claim-
`ing reluctance to approve an urban casino in
`the face of a surreptitiously passed federal law
`allowing the Lyttons to buy off-reservation
`land for a casino, lauded anticipated state rev-
`enues of up to $170 million a year from
`5,000 slots or more. The number could be

`
`sultanc for a local business, labor and tourism group now plumping for a 3,000-slot
`entertainment venue that would steer money to other businesses from new potential
`tourists. The casino should in fact be pare of a new entertainment district and
`customers-
`used as a city building tool, in the view of the
`Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce, the Chicago
`Federation of Labor, AFL-CIO and the Chicago
`Convention and Tourism Bureau.
`"We've got to show there is a market here that
`needs to be protected," says Jerry Roper, president of
`che Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce. "We're
`noc jusc spinning chem (public leaders), but making
`sure they understand this city and srate has the
`vision to attract tourism, conventions, trade shows
`and business."
`The coalition is proposing a privately operated
`casino jointly owned by the cicy and Illinois, cen-
`tered at a yet-to-be-chosen site near many of downtown Chicago's cultural establishments
`and activities.
`Past proposals for a downtown casino were based on the notion of raking in revenue for
`the city and state, but none persuaded Governor Rod Blagojevich to drop his opposition to a
`land-based casino there. He favors rural economic development using riverboat casinos now
`allowed by state law.
