Vegas style casinos headed for UK
February 18, 2007 on 1:37 pm | In Uncategorized |The United Kingdom is edging closer to introducing proper casinos. Until now, UK casinos have been more like small private clubs. Slot machines have been limited to old style ‘fruit machines’ with limited payouts.
Last month, Manchester was the surprise winner of a competition to host the supercasino, which although small by Las Vegas standards, is likely to be huge in UK terms, with 5,000 square metres of gaming space, 1,250 slot machines and 2,700 workers.
We know the UK is poorly represented as a percentage of game sales for Pokie Magic. There is a definite correlation between availability of modern slot machine games in a market, and game sales in that market.
Once modern slot machines enter the UK, the sophistication of players will grow. As will tax revenues for the British government, and thats what its really about.
