11 million to under 7 million? That's gi-normous. I wonder how many years ago the handle was at 7 million.

But what's really amazing was the response of CDI, saying on their conference call that "the economics of the overall results proved its direction is the correct one".

I guess considering the arrogance of CDI, it should be no surprise. How many days until Ellis opens?
It is 100% related to ADW's not having access, I could care less what they say and what bullshit marketing stat they try and find.

Fact is that the whole industry will get back to normal once it hurts enough. When they have to fire some people because of no revenue or when shareholders start making fuss, it will all get worked out. Luckily, we still have the trusty OTB system for a place to flush all our money
