    Somehow I cannot trust one, period. Hell, online banks give a better return but I prefer the brick and mortar ones. Just too damn old to change I guess.

    Several strip stores have removed 3:2 completely from the main floor. Others removed 3:2 from DD. More CSMs. Happy gamblers playing everything, such as $50 min 6:5.
    I was there a month or so earlier and I will affirm this. At least as to Caesar properties. You only get 3-2 on the shoe/8 deck games. 6-5 is now the norm on DD games until you go to high limit room (Cromwell was a minor exception as they advertise 3-2 BUT they only do that during the daytime I was told. They changed to 6-5 at night also but I can't personally vouch for that).

    How are casinos struggling when Caesars Entertainment's stock is up 1.72% today? Boyd Gaming closes at 2.57% and MGM Resorts International is up 1.87%. Probably the COVID-19 relief aid is helping them, which I don't think they deserve to get help from the relief package. They are just trying to be greedy tighten up their games.

    What that means is casinos don't need help. I think they should give back the Paycheck Protection Program money so other people who need it can use it.

    Frankly, the markets are more based on emotion than casino gamblers.

    It is just stock market priced in online gambling boom due to Covid 19. People are extremely bored and online gambling is an escape for many people. And recently Caesars signed some exclusively rights on sports betting with NFL. Sports betting have always been big and now they are legalized. And the money goes to the current big casino chains like MGM and Caesars etc.
