Australia Casino Attacks

Unfortunately more serious casino news out of Australia.

News Limited and wires report the latest in a string of attacks and bashings in and around Australia's land based casinos and gambling dens.

FORMER AFL star Jonathan Hay was attacked and kicked in the face in an apparently random attack at Crown casino.

Hay was celebrating his 30th birthday with friends when a gang of seven thugs forced him to the ground just after 2am Sunday.

The former All-Australian fullback suffered bruising and a cut to the head in the latest episode of mindless CBD violence.

It would appear on the surface that online casinos, online casino portals and the like, are gaining another advantage from their land based cousins by default.  Of course online casino don't have actual muggers, however one still needs to watch out for online casino strings and low acts, like they type that were documented on the United States version of 60 Minutes last year.

I would like to see Crown Casino offer an online casino portfolio, perhaps showcase by a Kerry Packer themed game.  PartyGaming of course has a Frank Sinatra and The Godfather slot, so why not a Packer game?

PartyGaming's PartyPoker, Noble Poker, and Euro Partners Titan Poker, and a few other brands, are offering satellites to the Poker Cup at Crown Casino later this year beginning in September.  Let's just hope the live events are incident free.  Insiders are looking to confirm if Mike Sexton, Phil H, Chris Moneymaker, Daniel "Kid Poker" Negreanu,

Annie Duke,  Phil Hellmuth, Tony G are likely to attend.  Those individuals may or may not add to aggressive play et al on location.  Folks are extremely interested to see if poker Doyle Brunson will turn up, as Mr Brunson has been in a war of words with some of the folks at Party over the past few years, and the world in the street is that Party is interested to talk serious shop with the powers that be at Crown (and Star City).  It's got all the makings of a real life battle royal, and a serious mix of personalities.  You can bet that Crown's James Packer will have security at an all time high, comparative to when Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes stayed at Crown a few months ago.

It's in Crown's best interest to beef up security to protect its customers, visitors and reputation.
