Good idea CBBB. We can then attract the gambler TCs who cannot legally enter the casinos in the occupied areas.

A case of allaxokoumaria, as in allaxokolia.

I wonder if the GC fool who won €30,000 one night about a month ago, only to have his winnings “confiscated” (read returned to the casino owner for a handsome “police” fee) at the roadblock, has gone back to participate in the “battle royal” the other day…

Do they really confiscate winnings? If they do it sort of negates the whole gambling as a tourist attraction ploy.

According to Kibris, 3 new licenses for casinos have been granted bringing the total up to 33.

WHat the hell are you guys doing with all these casinos?

Helping the GCs to spend their money.

Next question?

If thats the business plan then I have no issues. These fools should be parted with their money asap.

I am an old bore. Never gambled in my lifre (except the Lotto syndicate.)

Those idiots deserve to lose everything they have. I wonder what happens to the revenue?

According to an article I read in Afrika some time ago, the casinos are owned by mainland Turks, the staff are mainland Turks and they do everything to make sure that customers staying at these hotel/casino complexes do not wander out and spend money in the local economy. If this is true, it all goes into Turkey's coffers.

I wonder if they have an ad outside that casino that reads…

“Step right up for a chance to win the GRAND PRIZE!!!

Imprisonment and a “dirt cheap” lawyer at only €1,000!!!

Think of the savings!”

according to the rumour,CTP have granted these licences as complimentary in return for a hefty donation to their election campaign..
