Iao Kun’s VIP chip roll dips 72 pct in August
VIP gambling house investor Iao Kun Group Holding Co Ltd reported unaudited rolling chip sales in Macau in August, down 72% year-on-year to $440 million. The winning rate for August 2015 was 4.13 percent, the company said Wednesday.
Yokun's Business Partners Promote Five High Roller Facilities in Macau Casino. The company has also begun pilot operations at Crown Perth Casino and Crown Melbourne Casino in Australia, operated by Crown Resorts.
Macau's total gaming revenue (GGR) across the city fell 35.5% year-on-year in August, the Macau government said on Monday. This is a measure of the GGR retreat for the 15th consecutive month compared to the previous year.
Macau's rolling chip sales fell 54% in August, excluding its "direct VIP" business, according to unofficial industry returns compiled by Deutsche Bank Securities. Direct VIP refers to VIP players who are directly managed by the house, not brought in by a junket.
"The August results served as a setback for the 'less bad' paper, as the continued deterioration of VIP volume trends and limited positives within the mass sector characterized the month," analysts Carlo Santarelli and Danny Valoy said in a note on Thursday.
In the first eight months of 2015, Iao Kun's unaudited rolling chip sales fell 62% Y/Y to $4.8 billion. The figure averaged $1.57 billion per month in the January-August period, compared with $600 million per month in the January-August period of 2014.
Nasdaq-listed Iao Kun posted a net loss of $23.8 million in the second quarter of 2015, compared to a net loss of $56.7 million in the same period in 2014. Revenue for the period was $21.9 million, down 56% year-over-year.
The company said it experienced a "declining trend in VIP Baccarat, consistent with Macau's overall decline in gaming revenue." 릴게임
"The company's VIP rooms have lost 20% of its customers in the three months to August because some don't have the capital to come and play," Derrick Wong, Iao Kun's financial manager, told Bloomberg News. "They now need to get their breath together and recover," he added.

The KIM teacher will change 100%
There is a possibility that Leverkusen coach Xavi Alonso (42) could become a teacher of Kim Min-jae (27, Bayern Munich).
"If Alonso leaves Leverkusen this summer, he will head to Munich, not Liverpool," "Football 365" reported on the 5th, "because there were positive signals."
Alonso made his debut with Real Sociedad in 1999 and then headed to Liverpool in 2004. He played for Liverpool and won a total of four trophies, including the UEFA Champions League (2004-2005).
Alonso then headed to Real Madrid in 2009 and retired from Bayern Munich in 2017.
Alonso, who started his managerial career with Real Sociedad B after retirement, took the helm of Leverkusen in 2022. Alonso, who finished the season sixth in the league last season, leads Leverkusen to the only undefeated team in the top five European leagues in the 2022-2024 season.
Such head coach Alonso is being mentioned as the head coach of Munich, the "rival club."
Munich announced on its website on June 21 that it would accompany Thomas Tuchel only until this summer. They have mutually agreed to end their contract in June 2024.
Tuchel took the helm of Munich in March last year. He was deployed as a firefighter during the season after Julian Nagelsmann, giving Munich, which was ranking second in the Bundesliga, a come-from-behind victory.
After winning the title last season, Tuchel actively sent a love call to Kim Min-jae, who was a key defender of the Serie A team and won the top spot in the league. He said that Tuchel had a great influence on Kim's move to Munich.
However, the two of them end up together in a season.
Poor performance has hampered Tuchel. Munich is in second place with 54 points from 17 wins, 3 draws, and 4 losses, while playing 24 rounds of the Bundesliga in the 2023-2024 season. It is nine points shorter than Leverkusen, who is in first place. It is not expected that it will be easy to come from behind to win this time.
Tuchel said, "We agreed to end our contract with Munich after the end of this season. Until then, I will achieve maximum success. I will do everything I can with the coaching staff."
In the meantime, "Football 365" announced, "If head coach Alonso leaves Leverkusen this summer, he will head to Munich, not Liverpool."
Liverpool, the top English Premier League team, will also part ways with manager Jurgen Klopp at the end of this season.
"I have nothing to say. I don't even want to tell you in advance," Alonso said of the rumors about his future career before the release of Football 365. "I'm the Leverkusen coach now," he said, declining to comment. 스포츠토토
However, according to 'Football 365', Munich began 'negotiations' with Alonso.
Florian Flettenberg of Sky Sports leaked the source of the report. "Alonso can stay in Leverkusen, but if he leaves, he will stay in Germany (without going to England where Liverpool is)."

Son Heung-min ranks first in PL Big Chance conversion rate
Tottenham Hotspur ace Son Heung-min has become the best finisher in the English Premier League in the 2023-24 season.
Soccer statistics media "Huscoord" announced on the 4th that "Son Heung-min ranked first in the conversion rate of big chances (75%) in the Premier League this season."
The "Big chance conversion rate" refers to the rate at which a player scores a goal without missing a critical opportunity. The higher the figure, the better the goal-setting ability.
Tottenham captain Son Heung-min has scored 13 goals in 23 matches in the Premier League this season. He has attempted a total of 57 shots in 23 matches, with 27 effective shots reaching 47 percent of the accuracy. He has also scored 13 goals so far, but has only missed three crucial scoring opportunities, displaying the best finisher in the Premier League.
Thanks to his outstanding decision-making ability, Son Heung-min is currently ranked sixth in the league in scoring. He participated in the 2023 Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Asian Cup and was away from Tottenham for about a month, but he is five goals apart from top scorer Elling Holan (18 goals, Manchester City), so he can hit the top spot at any time depending on the scoring pace of the remaining games.
In particular, Son Heung-min's decisive power was even more outstanding as he missed a decisive scoring opportunity 26 times while leading scorer Holan scored 18 goals.
Son is highly regarded as a player who only makes decisions. In this season, Son has created a total of 14 big chances that can lead to goals in the Premier League, second only to Mohamed Salah (Liverpool), who scored 18 times in the creation of Park Chan-se.
However, Son Heung-min's help this season was only six as his teammates failed to properly lead the goal chance created by Son Heung-min.
Son Heung-min, who had only 10 goals and six assists in the league last season due to orbital fractures and sports hernia, succeeded in a perfect revival in the 2023-24 season.
First of all, Son Heung-min was even appointed club captain ahead of the season's opening. Son Heung-min is the first non-European player to captain the team in Tottenham's 141-year history, founded in 1882.
Son Heung-min, wearing the captain's armband, showed a completely different appearance when he was freed from a sports hernia that had plagued him throughout the last season. After Kane left Tottenham for Bayern Munich last summer, he regained his former self as he played as the team's best scorer between the front line and the side.
In the first three games, he played on the left wing as usual. Son, who claimed to be a playmaker and focused on making dedicated moves and goal opportunities, displayed stellar performance as the one-top player in his 4-2-3-1 formation. He scored nine goals until he returned to the left wing in December last year, including an explosive hat-trick at the match against Burnley, his first game as a one-top player.
He has accumulated many points since then. Although he became a left winger again in the 16th round against Newcastle United, he scored his 10th goal in the league, showing off his ability to score goals regardless of position. His 10th goal against Newcastle also marked the eighth consecutive season in which he scored double-digit goals in the league since the 2016-17 season.
The number of double-digit goals scored in eight consecutive seasons is a milestone with only seven in the Premier League's 31-year history, which began in 1992-93. Son, who scored only 10 goals in the 2022-23 season, tied the previous season's goal for the first time in 16 rounds.
Son scored his 11th goal in the match against Everton in the 18th round, and scored his 12th goal in the match against Bournemouth in the 20th round, Tottenham's last game in 2023, to finish the first half with 12 goals and five assists. As soon as he returned from the Asian Cup, he came as a substitute in the match against Brighton in the 24th round, helping to score the winning goal and leading the team to a 2-1 come-from-behind victory. 토토
On the 3rd, in the 27th round of the league against Crystal Palace, he neatly scored an additional goal in the 43rd minute of the second half in a counterattack, contributing to the 3-1 come-from-behind victory, and at the same time reported his first goal of the second half and began to score again.
