    Adelaide has been the consistent underperformer over so many long years now. I'm surprised they invested so much on the expansion programme there, wasn't it $300m ?
    Maybe Adelaide folk a parochial bunch and don't like giving Kiwi's their money ?
    Yes Winner, IIRC there were rumours going around that certain overseas people had worked out how to scam the system here. Expert card counters to call it what it is. I guess some of them weren't welcome back at a SKC casino in FY15?

    Poor Lewis

    Hamilton posted a damning review to his 3.2 million Twitter followers: "Don't ever go to the sky city casino in Auckland, they treated me like dirt. Can't believe how rude they were. Worst casino experience ever!"


    Teach him for going to such a den of iniquity

    If this means that SKC is not like other Casinos that Lewis has experienced, I see this as a good thing.

    SKC has been a core part of my investment portfolio back before the Stolwyk days. So successful was my investment in SKC, that I was looking at other casinos in Sydney, Melbourne and even Macau to provide a complimentary investment to pair up with the dollars I have in SKC. After some personal visits, all I thought were just horrible: real 'glitter gutter' floor experiences. I came back and put more money in SKC shares instead. 00 on the roulette wheel is always the best number to pick for a real return!

    The market likes Lewis's free publicity twitter spree too. Any publicity is good publicity in the entertainment industry. SKC SP up 4% today.

    Stolwyk was a real character and a good bloke.

    Remember his reminding us all the time that Auckland Airport and Sky City were twins.

    Probably great investments over that time eh

    I sometimes wonder if Roger is Stolwyk's son.

    Formula 1 is not exactly the Vienna Boys Choir,Bernie paid 100mil Euro to stop being prosecuted.
    Lewis does have history.
    Poor Lewis's "super trendy" gear did stop him gaining entry to the Royal box at Wimbleton,and The Queen did have to explain table etiquette to him,when she had him as a dinner party guest.

    Percy the Bernie payment was even better than that wasn't it . Facing charges he gave someone a bribe , the German Govt let him off if he paid them !!!!!

    SkyCity Entertainment Group had 9.1 million shares traded today, relatively high I believe.
