In my experience casinos are not that popular anymore, fewer people tend to turn to gamble than people 20 years ago did. Casinos used to be a place where wealthy and classy people were to go. I worked in one of Europe's biggest casino and things changed a lot. Less and fewer people are going there and mostly are poker players who don't spend a lot of money.
I think you will get a better response if you post this topic in Gambling thread.
