Understanding the Impact of Online Casinos on the Traditional Casino Industry

 

The world of gambling has undergone a significant change in recent years with the rise of 온라인카지노. The convenience and accessibility of these virtual platforms have attracted a large number of players, leading to a rapid growth in the online casino industry. However, this growth has also had a significant impact on the traditional brick-and-mortar casino industry.

The Advantages of Online Casinos

Online casinos offer players a wide range of benefits, including convenience and accessibility. These virtual platforms allow players to access a wide variety of games from the comfort of their own homes. They also offer bonuses and promotions that can be highly attractive to players. Additionally, online casinos are available 24/7, meaning players can access them at any time.

The Disadvantages of Online Casinos

Despite the many advantages of online casinos, there are also some disadvantages. One of the main drawbacks is the lack of social interaction. Online casinos do not provide the same atmosphere as traditional brick-and-mortar casinos, where players can interact with each other and enjoy the excitement of a live casino. Additionally, online casinos may not be as safe and secure as traditional casinos, which can put players at risk of fraud and hacking.

The Impact on Traditional Casinos

The rise of online casinos has had a significant impact on the traditional brick-and-mortar casino industry. As more and more players flock to online casinos, traditional casinos have seen a decline in revenue and attendance. This has led to the closure of many traditional casinos, particularly in the United States.

Additionally, traditional casinos have had to adapt to the changing market by incorporating more technology into their operations. For example, many traditional casinos now offer online sports betting and mobile betting options to attract a younger demographic.

온라인 도박 탓…강원랜드 겨울 성수기에도 카지노 고객 답보?

 겨울 스키시즌이 본격 시작됐음에도 강원랜드 카지노 입장객이 답보상태를 보여 성수기 경영여건에 이상기류가 감지된다는 지적이다.

27일 강원랜드에 따르면 코로나 팬데믹으로 지난 2020년 2월 23일부터 올해 5월 15일까지 카지노 영업장 영업중단과 부분 영업 등으로 2020년과 2021년 사상 첫 적자로 주주배당도 2년 연속 불발됐다.

사회적 거리두기 해제와 함께 올 5월 16일부터 카지노 정상영업이 시작되면서 2020년 4786억 원, 2021년 7884억 원에 그쳤던 매출이 연말까지는 1조 1000원을 넘길 것으로 전망되고 있다.

이처럼 강원랜드는 2년 연속 적자에서 벗어나 올해는 3년 만에 흑자가 유력하지만 스키시즌이 본격 시작된 이달 들어 평일 카지노 입장객은 4000명대 초반부터 주말에도 6~8000명 수준에 그치는 것으로 알려졌다.

겨울 성수기에도 카지노 입장객이 예년의 80% 수준에도 미치지 못하는 것은 코로나 팬데믹 기간에 불법 온라인 도박으로 갈아 탄 고객들이 많아진 것으로 분석되고 있다. 

강원랜드 카지노를 즐기기 위해서는 수도권에서 자가용이나 동서울에서 편도 3시간의 고속버스를 이용해야 하고 ARS사전 예약시스템에 의한 순번 입장, 게임환경 등에서 고객들의 불편과 불만이 고조된다.

또한 테이블 200대와 1360대의 슬롯머신 탓에 고객들은 원하는 테이블이나 슬롯머신 좌석에 앉아 게임하기도 힘들고 외국 카지노와 비교가 안 되는 베팅조건 등 각종 규제는 고객들을 불법도박으로 밀쳐내고 있다.

온라인 카지노를 즐기는 A씨는 “겨울 성수기에도 고객들이 강원랜드에 발길을 끊은 것은 상당수 고객들이 온라인 게임으로 옮겼기 때문”이라며 “긴 이동시간과 까다롭고 승률이 낮은 게임조건보다 훨씬 유리한 온라인 도박은 오프라인 카지노와 비교불가”라고 말했다. 

김태호 강원랜드 사외이사는 “코로나 팬데믹 이후 강원랜드 주변의 앵벌이 중 상당수가 온라인 도박장의 연결업자(정켓)가 되어 상당한 수익을 올리고 있다”며 “규제혁신이 없으면 강원랜드는 게임조건이 월등하게 뛰어난 불법 온라인 도박에 계속 밀릴 수밖에 없다”고 강조했다. 

한편 강원랜드 카지노의 입장객 현황에 따르면 정상영업이 시작된 올 6월부터 입장객이 다소 회복하고 있지만 2019년과 비교하면 80% 수준을 겨우 넘기고 있으며 이달 들어서는 그 격차가 더 벌어진 것으로 알려졌다.

The Ville casino resort in Townsville charged with breaking Queensland casino laws

The Ville resort empty during coronavirus restrictions in Townsville.

he Ville Resort Casino in Townsville has been charged with breaking Queensland's casino laws just days after the operator of a Cairns casino was fined for paying a junket tour operator.

Key points:

• The Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation has been investigating the Townsville venue for months
• The Ville is accused of operating an alleged "illegal junket operation" and engaging in alleged "unapproved agreements."
• The matter is scheduled to go before the Townsville Magistrates Court in January 2023

The state's gambling regulator has spent months investigating allegations of an "illegal junket operation" at the luxury venue after it became aware of "alleged unapproved agreements" at the Ville as early as February.

Casino laws in Queensland require approval for certain agreements or arrangements, including junkets.

The Office of Liquor and Gaming told the ABC it had charged The Ville Resort Casino with breaching two sections of the Casino Control Act.

The casino, owned by billionaire businessman Chris Morris, was in August the subject of a report by Channel Nine program 60 Minutes, which claimed the Ville had paid an alleged illegal junket operator "in cash and loyalty points" to attract high rollers to the venue.

At the time, the Ville said there were factual inaccuracies in the report and that the casino operated lawfully.

The casino has been contacted for comment again.

The matter is due to be heard at Townsville Magistrates Court in January.

Fines handed to Cairns casino operator

Just days ago, the operator of the Reef Hotel Casino in Cairns was fined $10,000 for paying a junket tour operator to bring patrons to the venue. 

Casinos Austria International (Cairns) Pty Ltd paid high roller Lawrence Fu 0.05 per cent of what the casino turned over from patrons he brought through its doors.

A casino operator in Far North Queensland has been fined for paying a junket tour operator to bring patrons to the venue.

But the agreement, which earned Mr Fu $21,400 in betting vouchers, did not have written approval from the state gaming minister.

The Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation is currently reviewing penalties under the state's casino legislation.

New reforms require casinos to self-report breaches and cooperate with the regulator, which said additional reforms will be introduced next year.

World famous casinos you want to visit at least once during your trip

In Korea, the use of casinos by locals is strictly restricted. There are 17 casinos in Korea alone, but Kangwon Land is the only one that Koreans can enter, and the rest are operated exclusively for foreigners. However, in foreign countries, the operation and use of casinos is more liberal. Of course, some people use it for gambling, but the reality is that it is established as a healthy entertainment culture, and various cultures other than casino games are harmonized, attracting many tourists. Why don't you enjoy the casino culture that you can't easily enjoy in Korea, and enjoy the atmosphere when you travel abroad?

grand casino

Monaco is the smallest country in the world after the Vatican Empire, but it is very famous for the love story of Prince Rainier III and actress Grace Kelly, the Formula 1 Grand Prix car racing competition on public roads, and world-class yacht shows. In particular, the Grand Casino, located in the Monte Carlo area along the harbor, is famous for its palace-like appearance and as a place where the rich of the world gather. The casino, operated by the Kingdom of Monaco, requires a dress code to enter.

Las Vegas Casino

Las Vegas, the largest tourist city in Nevada, USA and a place where casinos are concentrated, began when Thomas Hull built the first casino motel in the Nevada desert. Currently, it is a splendid night city where the lights do not go out, and when you are here, you do not even know when the night has passed. Casinos operated by each hotel are not only large in scale, but also attract more than 40 million tourists a year through various events. The Treasure Island Hotel presents a pirate show, and the Hotel Bellagio, where the movie Ocean's Eleven was filmed, has a fountain show.
