    [Type here] PROBLEM GAMBLING: HOW JAPAN COULD ACTUALLY BECOME THE NEXT LAS VEGAS Jennifer Roberts and Ted Johnson INTRODUCTION Although with each passing day it appears less likely that integrated resorts with legalized gaming will become part of the Tokyo landscape in time for the city’s hosting of the summer Olympics in 20201, there is still substantial international interest in whether Japan will implement a regulatory system to oversee casino-style gaming. In 2001, Macau opened its doors for outside companies to conduct casino gaming operations as part of its modernized gaming regulatory system.2 At that time, it was believed that Macau would become the next Las Vegas.3 Just a few years after the new resorts opened, many operated by Las Vegas casino company powerhouses, Macau surpassed Las Vegas as the “gambling center” at one point.4 With tighter restrictions and crackdowns on corruption, Macau has since experienced declines in gaming revenue.5 When other countries across Asia have either contemplated or adopted gaming regulatory systems, it is often believed that they could become the 1 See 2020 Host City Election, OLYMPIC.ORG, http://www.olympic.org/2020-host- city-election (last visited Oct. 25, 2015). 2 Macau Gaming Summary, UNLV CTR.

  • Raves for Bob Dancer and Million Dollar Video Poker
    Raves for Bob Dancer and Million Dollar Video Poker “Bob Dancer makes me sick. Here I am, telling everyone they have to scout the casinos, trick the floormen, and endlessly badger bosses and hosts for comps, and all he does is show up and play a lousy machine and he’s outcomped me three years running. Dancer talks the talk and walks the walk and now anyone who plays video poker can walk with him—right to the bank.” —Max Rubin, author of Comp City: A Guide to Free Casino Vacations “Bob has written a book that every video poker player will love. It’s not only a close-up look at the daily life of a working video poker pro, but also as close as most of us will ever get to the big leagues of video poker play. Bob Dancer is a pat hand, a one-of- a-kind whose book pays off 100%.” —Skip Hughes, publisher of Video Poker Player and host of www.vphomepage.com “A surprisingly candid look at the ups and downs, successes and failures, of a professional video poker player. Bob reveals both the mistakes he made and the mistakes the casinos made.” —John Robison, author of The Slot Expert’s Guide to Playing Slots “A fascinating glimpse into the high-roller video poker world, with useful information even a low-roller can use.” —Jean Scott, author of The Frugal Gambler and More Frugal Gambling “While primarily informative, this is a fun read. It’s easy to see more … why our readers voted Dancer ‘Favorite Gaming Personality’ for both 2001 and 2002.
