Promotions and Events for September at
NINE BATTLE FOR $25 MILLION IN POKER’S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP The annual World Series of Poker in Las Vegas is the grandest and richest gambling competition in history. This year’s 47th annual extravaganza at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas attracted 107,833 players from 107 countries. The response generated a total prize pool of $221,211,336 in entry fees. Among the 69 tournaments that are held, none are more famous than the Main Event, the No-Limit Hold’em Championship. Earlier this month 6,737 players from 79 countries put up the $10,000 entry fee to compete for professional poker’s most coveted championship, which includes a multi-million-dollar cash prize and a diamond-encrusted gold bracelet made by Jostens, a commemorative jewelry-making company. The total cash prize pool distribution for this year’s Main Event competition is $63,327,800. Following 10 days and nights of grueling competition, the field is now down to the final nine players who will return to the championship table on October 30 to compete for more than $25 million in prize money, of which $8 million will go to the winner. Each finalist is guaranteed to walk away from the table with at least $1 million. It is shaping up to be a highly competitive and spirited competition. Unlike a few times in recent championships, where the leader went in with a decided advantage in sheer chip total, this year every finalist has a shot, depending upon how the cards are drawn and what the players do with them. Comprehensive coverage of the 2016 World Series of Poker Main Event will start airing Sunday, September 11 at 8:30p.m. (EDT) on ESPN2. Coverage will continue in two-hour blocks each Sunday at 8:30p.m. until October 2, when it moves to ESPN at 8:30p.m. with two-and-a-half-hour blocks every Sunday. Three-night prime time live coverage of the Main Event Final Table will be presented on ESPN October 30 through November 1.

When Googling “Native American good luck symbols,” dreamcatchers appear. Some consider the dreamcatcher a symbol of unity among the various Indian Nations, and a general symbol of identification with Native American nations.
THE MORE THINGS CHANGE THE MORE THEY... ...stay the same.
Look, we’ve been covering all this gambling carrying-on in our part of the planet since, well, since before cell phones were invented. Way back then, our veteran and fraternal clubs were allowed to hold bingo games and give away a top prize of $1,500 in cash. This action was Santa Fe legal, as strong as grandma’s breath. But then some guys came out of Tulsa with hundred dollar bills stuffed in their jean pockets. They went to church groups (non-profits) and cut them in for a piece of the action—action on playing big-time bingo with top prizes of $5,000. The deal was, it was found money for the church groups, an itty-bitty piece of the pie, and the Tulsa Tricksters got the rest of the dessert. And it killed the veteran and fraternal clubs, who couldn’t match the five-grand payoffs. Then our Native American brothers called time out. “If the White Man can hand out five-thou,” went the sentiment, “so can we. We’ll even raise the lid of excitement to $10,000.” So when our state’s Native leaders started building bingo palaces and shelling out big bingo bucks, the Tulsa team loaded up their Cadillacs and hit I-40 headed east for home. The church groups faded into the background, and the veteran clubs—the American Legions and VFWs—along with fraternal clubs like the Eagles, Moose, and Elks, all said, “No way, Santa Fe. We do not like the hand we been dealt. We’re not going anywhere.” So they moved the goal posts. Like a garden of tulips, slot

machines in all colors popped up in clubs throughout the state. Seeing all this, New Mexico Indian leaders threw away their bingo daubers, started building casinos, and waved in 18-wheelers filled with precious cargos comprised of, you guessed it, slot machines. It was slots of fun. But then, after almost two decades of this “grey market gambling,” Governor Gary Johnson said, “Let’s just quit screwing around and make gambling legal.” And so it came to pass: Each club got up to their choice of, but no more than, 15 slots each; race tracks could get up to 700 machines; and the tribes could operate with as many as they choose. Restrictions were aplenty. The vets and fraternal organization had limited hours with which to play. Plus, no table games, no promotions, no guests playing. A decent 10 percent tax. Racetracks had basically the same cuffs, except they could have promotions, but heavily strapped with limits. No table games for tracks, and a draconian tax burden close to 50 percent. Ouch. The Natives came away with all they chose in slots, table games, and bingo. They scored on promotions with but a few “pain in the whatever” restrictions. Along with no booze on the casino floor and a sliding percentage on tax, depending on slot sales figures, of almost 10 percent. That’s it. It was done. Gambling was legal in New Mexico. Marketing became a battleground, with stiff competition for key billboard locations, television and radio spots, and print magazine ads. What in-depth research tells us is that an overwhelming number of people make their casino of choice the one easiest to get to from home. So of course any good casino marketing campaign has to vet their base—show the locals how much they are loved—while at the same time targeting visitors from other parts of the state, the region, and the nation. From small bingo halls to slot floors to full-blown vacationdestination casino-resorts—it’s been a long and exciting ride. And it isn’t over yet.

GEORGE LOPEZ Friday, September 16 • 8pm
Blood, Sweat and Tears Featuring Bo Bice Live
What better way to celebrate Isleta Resort & Casino’s 30th anniversary than with a show by one of today’s most talented comedians? In the pantheon of great Latino comic artists, George Lopez is considered the best. His multi-faceted career includes his start in show business as a Los Angeles morning radio show host in 1999, and culminates with television’s groundbreaking sitcom, George Lopez, which ran for six seasons on ABC, starting in 2002. After the show was cancelled in 2007, Lopez concentrated on stand up and comedy specials, putting out a series of films for HBO that earned Grammy nominations and other critical and commercial accolades. He was also the focus of the 2007 award-winning documentary Brown is the New Green: George Lopez and the American Dream. Lopez has also enjoyed a long career as a dramatic and comedic actor, earning praise for his performances in Real Women Have Curves, Bread and Roses, The Adventures of Shark Boy & Lava Girl, The Spy Next Door with Jackie Chan, and, most recently, Spare Parts, based on a true story about four undocumented Mexican-American teenagers who team up to build an award-winning underwater robot. Lopez is perhaps best known for the voice of Papi in the Beverly Hills Chihuahau movies, and the voice of Rafael the toucan in the animated hit Rio. But standup still remains near and dear to his heart. Come see why when George Lopez gets the laughs rolling at Isleta Resort & Casino on September 16. For tickets and more information, visit www.isleta.com.
Friday, September 30 • 8pm It’s been nearly five decades since drummer/producer Bobby Colomby and friends assembled Blood, Sweat & Tears, the first group to successfully blend rock and jazz into a genre-crossing sound that earned the band a headlining appearance at Woodstock only two years after having formed. So successful was that appearance, that the band’s second album, Blood, Sweat & Tears, topped the Billboard charts for many weeks and beat out the Beatles’s Abbey Road for the prestigious Album of the Year Grammy award in 1970. That album produced three major hit singles: “You Made Me So Very Happy,” “And When I Die” and “Spinning Wheel.” Today Colomby is working to develop Blood Sweat & Tears into a contemporary voice, one that reaches beyond a single, nostalgic audience. And American Idol season four runner-up Bo Bice is the singer that is helping to make this happen. Although he came in second to Carrie Underwood for the win, it was clear that Bice had all the makings of a true-blue rock star. It was Bice’s rendition of “Spinning Wheel” that first drew Colomby’s attention to the young rocker—and then got his mind spinning as well. Colomby has said in interviews that Bice struck him as a confident and well-seasoned singer in the Southern rock style. At the urging of several of the seasoned drummer’s friends, he asked the Idol contestant to join the band. And fans have never been happier. Come hear what everyone is talking about when Blood, Sweat & Tears takes the stage with Bo Bice on Friday, September 30. For tickets and more information, visit www.isleta.com.

Are Casinos Required to Publically Post Slot Machine Returns? Dear Mark: Are casinos required by law to inform the customer what the slot return percentages are for their slot machines? Mary Ellen P.
Because slot machines hold some of the highest percentage returns for the casino, yes, Mary Ellen, consumers should know those numbers so they can make informed decisions about where to play. While every slot machine has an accounting system built in that contains payback data, not all states require their casinos to release or post that information. Some states break down casino returns by geographic area. In some, it’s easy to find out the average slot payback percentage on all slot machines for an individual casino. It’s posted right in the newspaper. Editor’s note: We researched New Mexico, Arizona, and Colorado state requirements, and compared them to a cross-section of those governing slots in Las Vegas (source: American Casino Guide.com). New Mexico: New Mexico gaming regulations require that electronic machines at racetracks and fraternal/veterans organizations return a minimum of 80 percent to a maximum of 96 percent. New Mexico’s tribal operations do not make their slot machine payback percentages a matter of public record, but the terms of the compact between the state and the tribes require all electronic gaming machines to return a minimum of 80 percent.
Arizona: Arizona’s tribes are likewise not required to release information on their slot machine percentage paybacks. However, according to the Arizona Department of Gaming, the terms of the compact require each tribes’ machines to return the following minimum and maximum paybacks: video poker and video blackjack, 83–100 percent; slot machines, 80–100 percent; keno, 75–100 percent. Each tribe is free to set its machines to pay back anywhere within those limits. Colorado: According to Colorado’s Division of Gaming, slot machine payback percentages range from 89.8 percent (1-cent slots in Black Hawk) to 96 percent on $5 slots, but these percentages include return on video poker and video keno (which usually generate higher returns). Las Vegas, Nevada: The Nevada Gaming Control Board does not break down its slot statistics by individual properties. Rather, they are classified by area. For example: 1¢ Slot Machines 25¢ Slot Machines $1 Slot Machines The Strip: 88.24 percent The Strip: 91.21percent The Strip: 93.69 percent N. Las Vegas: 90.56 percent Boulder Strip: 96.59 percent Downtown: 95.24 percent All Slot Machines The Strip: 92.50 percent Downtown: 93.20 percent Boulder Strip: 94.39 percent N. Las Vegas: 93.68 percent These numbers reflect the percentage of money returned to the players on each denomination of machine. All electronic machines, including slots, video poker and video keno, are included in these numbers, so to compare Las Vegas to New Mexico, for example, is difficult.
