Right figure, wrong figure, still there lacks any transparency where these earnings go - when especially they keep harping that they need more money to run t...

One machine per year make/averages $300K!

Once casino starts operation, clubs that have Jackpot machines will be badly affected, I think.

No one will care about country clubs etc, sit in casino shiok shiok, aircon, maybe strike big jackpot, good food, nice setting etc.

Better sell your club membership now!! Razz Razz

dragg SG

not true.

some people may not want to pay the entrance fee.

You know one round of golf in Singapore how much leh?

Sure have yearly membership at discount for casino one. I tell you, the casinos in singapore also have to woo the locals. If not, what's the purpose?

Built already singaporeans still go m'sia or batam? Think about it.

I always win.

Hehehe.

Once I win $70 to $200, I will take my pot and leave. shi du jiu su (ten gamble nine lose). The idea is, don't be too greedy like our ministers, else lose everything back to the machine.

And yet the government keeps saying operating costs are high, they need more money....

a couple of months back I helped my "boss" interview an accounts girl... she used to work as a jackpot steward in one of the clubs...

I asked her... how often do people win the jackpot and how much is the jackpot...?

She said about $50K and about once a month... but the club takes in about $500 to $600K a month...

I also asked her if the regulars are the ones that win the jackpot and she said "No, the winners are usually people I have never seen before..."

the papers reported that highest winning is only 44k and its back in 03.

$743m, after Tax Deductions, how much will it be?
They Tax their own earnings, where does Tax amounts go to?

Since you always win, make this your carrier as a gambler. Yet you know shi du jiu su, so who will believe you? So do not give this kind of story that "I always win".

Best wishes from Gwadar

AndrewPKYap SG

that is slightly better because you can't be going so often... when the casino is in Marina and Sentosa, that is when the problem starts... you can go everyday...

dragg SG

the jackpot payout is much higher.

Very Happy
