Coronavirus Closures & Massive Mergers


The world is still a crazy place for our first show of 2021,
as the newest strain of the Coronavirus has caused
yet another round of casinos closures in the UK.
Also, industry news on a potential merger involving
MGM Resorts and Entain (formerly GVC Holdings),
while Iran has found a way to stop online gambling.

It's such a shame to hear about the closure of London casinos because of the mutated version of the coronavirus. This pandemic really needs to be eliminated (or at least, slowed down dramatically) as soon as possible. It's just terrible seeing all of this trail of destruction because of it.

And as for Iran, that's pretty absurd. "Corruption on Earth" they say?? Too weird.

Good to see you again in 2021, JT.
