I am a bit divided on this question. On one hand the Star needs a good shake up & a bit of competition would almost guarantee action to ensure this happens. On the other i really question whether we need any further gambling proliferation in this state / country. Talking about a $1.5 billion development - now thats a lot of bickies in anyones language & you can "bet" Packer see's a good return on his investment from the punters.
And whats all this about "architectual excellence" & all the media attention its getting........with Mr Keating being bandied about as some expert on urban style / development.......thought Italian suits were more his go. I mean isnt this putting the cart before the horse.....the initial questioning as to whether a 2nd Sydney Casino should be allowed still has to been decided. Thinks theres a lot of big "influence" dollars going on behind the scenes. ------------- And The Boys Light Up.... ! |

How does it affect the average punter adversely if, as proposed it is only for mostly fly-in 'high rollers'? Sounds like a win for NSW taxpayers with no downside

Actually BD......what does "mostly" mean in Casino terms. Is it going to be by invitation only do you think ? Are they suggesting they will not have a general floor like all the Casinos i have ever been to......you know the floor with the zillion poker machines & the squillion lower limit gaming tables.......... doubt it very much. So how are they going to limit "local citizen joe average" entry to ensure it is "mostly" high rollers.........maybe a wealth test / finance assessment on entry will be imposed. Or maybe based on shoe quality on the way past.
As i said before, this "mostly" stuff is all spin to con the general public ! The only screening they will have on entry is Security thugs on the doors to ensure nutters like Hollywood are kept out ! ------------- And The Boys Light Up.... ! |

| The discussions I have seen it is not a normal casino, but a hotel complex with a casino for high rollers only, most of whom would be flown in from Asia. They are targeting the market his other Asian casino investments rely on. Million dollar hands at blackjack will be outside my reach, so I wont know what goes on in there personally |

His plan is for a six-star hotel -- Sydney's first -- and a VIP invitation-only gaming resort that will be the first in the world with no slot machines, which traditionally account for a large slice of casino revenue. If permission is granted, it will be constructed at the Barangaroo development site in the shadow of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, a prime harbourside location once a working dock. http://www.lankabusinessonline.com/news/james-packer-targets-asian-high-rollers-with-new-sydney-casino/2058674345" rel="nofollow - http://www.lankabusinessonline.com/news/james-packer-targets-asian-high-rollers-with-new-sydney-casino/2058674345 |

| No one has said any other casinos operate without a general gaming floor. If have thought that was quite clear. You asked how they would ensure it is a private gaming facility and I told you. It would operate like every other private gaming room in the country. You can't just walk in but if you turn up with the required amount of cash (different amount depending on whether you're local, interstate or overseas resident) you will be allowed in. |

Are you serious, as if the average punter doesn't have enough places to go and gamble already.

In answer to the threads question , No sydney does not need another casino.
The one we have is a money munching white elephant that without overseas gamblers would be not worth the upkeep, so not sure how another casino will benefit the community or the investors who finance it.

A second Casino in Sydney will start the Casino ball rolling again......justification for other cities to go for a second / third.......oh....& then Mr Packer will have reason to whinge that this has caused his high roller forecasts to be out.......so will need a general gaming floor to make up the short-fall.....& before you know it we have Casinos everywhere......& then the Pubs / Clubs complain that they need relief because pokie turn-over is down........& onto racing turn-over & so on & onas i said......never ending. ------------- And The Boys Light Up.... ! |

You mistake a fall in paper wealth with unprofitable businesses. I'm quite sure that his casinos are making money. And other than the bath he took when the sharks in Vegas had him for dinner, I can't really think of a failed casino venture that he has been a part of. And like any business, a casino can lose money for a variety of reasons. Just ask Caesar's Entertainment in the US which is on the very of bankruptcy thanks to a mountain of debt. On the original question of this topic though, IMO Sydney doesn't need a second casino. Just my opinion but I think one in each capital city is enough. |

Are those that can't afford Hamilton Island being discriminated against ? Anyone can go to the high rollers casino, if they can afford it, no difference. I don't see why it bothers you, basically the casino will cater to the rich, it doesn't affect you in any way. Maybe Hamilton Island was not a good example, how about a 5 star hotel or luxury resorts like the Mardan Palace Hotel Turkey, should these places not exist because 99% of people can't afford even 1 night there ? ------------- Declaration of Independence, signed after The Civil War.

Fair enough Whale.....the 4 billion might be on the high side.........depends at what time scale you look at. Four Corners reported 2 billion in Oct 2009.......1.3 billion being in Vegas & the rest from other Casino interests around the world. Anyway......still big dollars & whilst it was after the GFC it is well reported that his losses were from "poor decision making". Exceed got it right saying "the vegas sharks saw him coming". Bottom line his wealth dropped from 7 b to 5 b between 2006 & 2012 according to BRW. The question still remains as Rusty said why would a public tender not be be called on such a huge project? If the state govt is seriously considering his proposal this should just happen......& to be fair maybe it still will. My feeling is it will all fall over.......Echo will fight it big time & more importantly anymore gambling proliferation will be seen as poison by the general community as evidenced by the sports betting fiasco currently "in-play".

Okay so now I see where we are going?
So this new casino will be for the well healed and the overseas targets, and the locals and riff raff will be seen in the existing casino.
Right well if that is how it works, I agree then, if it does not impact on locals who can not afford it I am fine with it.
If the cost of staying and playing there includes day tours to other sydney and surrounding attractions and lifts our tourism attracting capabilities and business opportunities I am all for it.
The question however was does Sydney need a second casino, and I still say no it does not, but happy to be proven wrong! ------------- Remember, it might take intelligence to be smart , but it takes experience to be wise |

Packer casino gets go-ahead to proceed to next stage July 4, 2013 - 3:45PM A second casino is set to open in Sydney from 2019 after James Packer’s plans for a $1.5 billion hotel and gambling resort at Barangaroo received NSW government backing. NSW Premier Barry O’Farrell said the proposal for Crown's hotel and gambling resort at Barangaroo could proceed to "stage three" of the assessment, but it was not yet a licence to build.
