The JV generally does not matter - Station runs it and gets a fee for
doing so. THe only area where it matters is why GVR is excluded from
Station wide promotions often - so you can use your 4x points at any
property but GVR if you are coded to a 100% owned Station property.
To be fair, GVR is a joint venture between Station and the
Greenspun
group; or whatver they call themslves. I think the same group is
building Alliante Station. Maybe they think that because they
perceive an area to be "affluent", they can offer poor games to the
lemmings.Surprise, surprise. It doesn't work that way. Guaranteed VP is a
flop; anyone want to dispute that? Machines go to ZERO revenue,
when
merely offering 99% to 100% games generates revenue.
I guess Lorenzo and Frank must believe in idiots that think 100% of
ZERO means something. Hey L and F; I will do that job for a mere
$100,000 a year and then pack the places with VP players. Even the
so-called "burn out artists" would not be able to stay away. Some
will win. Most will lose.>
