    Very good on the coming of resort casinos in PTT. Glad it's being restricted to visitors only. Guess your "niece" can't go in with you which is a downer. At the Avenue what happened to the European restaurant? It was run by the Belgian young man. Did it close? You did episodes from it. Legal advice very interesting.

    Casinos in Pattaya? Pattaya has a very good, unique, culture. I do not know if it aligns with the serious nature of casinos and gambling. Large amounts of money can make people do silly things. It will be interesting to see the new type of tourism and how it affects the environment.

    i can see why they wouldnt allow thais in the casino ( although it would be rude to not be allowed into your own casino ) - but minimum bets at tables like blackjack - paigow - and baccara = minimum bets would be 150 baht at any table or any game ( other than slot machines ) and a thais avg salary is only 15000 b monthly - the casino couldnt / wouldnt allow bets under this as they would make no money to allow blackjack for 5 baht a hand - and a small night in a casino would be at least 1500 baht ( and that would only be 10 bets - who plays only 10 hands of blackjack - i could see ten spins on the roulette table but ... - and 1500 would be 10 percent of thier monthly salary = so essentially they cant afford to gamble = but what about the rich thai people as if they wouldnt allow them in ?
