Apparently a 40% cut of the slot revenue isn't enough for that guy Packard in Londonderry. While CT only takes 25% I believe. Has MA released what they plan on taking?
If Suffolk Downs breaks ground the end of this year/beginning of next year NH is gonna be ****ed.
I was at Rockingham on Saturday evening a couple of weeks ago (veiled brag - chopped the 2pm $140 - chip leader got $1200, two other larger stacks got $1000, and other 8 of us got $815).
Usually when I'm there it's either a weekday night or during the day on a weekend. By the time I left at 10pm on Sautrday, not only was every non-poker gambling option full, there were literally dozens of people waiting just to sit down to play. I had never seen anything like it.
NH really, really blew this. Massachusetts doesn't need to be the first place (after CT) to go live in order to do well, as they have the built-in population, but I'm not sure if NH can afford to be second, let alone third after Rhode Island.
