Very well put. If the large casinos went non smoking they would do well. SDilver City had no slot club, no decent restaurant, and with few exceptions, VP pay tables worse than the surrounding competition.

guess what it went out of business.>>Do you think Bellagio would go out of business if they went non-smoking?
<< If you really sit and take a good look around on any weekend or evening
in Vegas or any Casino at least 40% of people drink and smoke, including
myself. In fact I never smoke in my home or around my kids I sneak off to
the Casino to smoke and drink and pollute everyone else's lungs and my own,
oh well. If that makes me a degenerate low life so be it, I loved every cig
I've smoked in my life. >>I don't smoke but that's how I feel about dessert.
Seriously, this isn't really even a question any more. California and New
York went smokeless and they're still in business. Even the poker rooms in
Las Vegas are smokeless and doing better then ever in history. Nevada needs
to get out of the dark ages.
