Pachinko: What is it?
Written by Mamosuko Kishimoto on January 25, 2010 – 10:12 am -Seventeen million Japanese play pachinko, and that makes it Japan’s biggest leisure activity by some way. More popular even than fishing. When we look at the value of the pachinko market we can measure that thirty trillion yen is gambled. But this is not the revenue. Revenue is measure by the amount that players lose – the term given to this is the net win because it is the money that is won by the casinos.
There are over 15,000 pachinko parlors across Japan employing over 300,000 individuals, so it certainly feel like a big industry. But actually the net win of pachinko machines is just ten percent so of the thirty trillion waged only three trillion is profit, thus pachinko in fact comes behind dining out, sports and overseas travel as a leisure activity.
Pachinko is facing financial pressures and this is leading to pachinko parlors closing. Over 5,000 parlors are expected to close in the next couple of years and this provides a great opportunity for real estate investors to buy some prime retail locations, redevelop them and make a bundle of cash. There is nobody focused on this market right now so the time is right to turn it into a great business.

Online Casinos Are So Attractive
Written by Simon M Skinner on January 4, 2010 – 9:12 am -You are probably already aware that online gambling has quickly become one of the biggest and strongest industries in the entire world. On any day of the week, and any time of day, you will find thousands, if not millions of people, scanning through the various online casinos. But what makes these online gaming sites so popular?
While most people know that there is a certain amount of luck involved, there are a lot of games that allow players to make use of their gaming skills. Games of luck or chance are not a new thing as the ancient Romans, Egyptians, and the Greeks found enjoyment in testing Lady Luck. In fact, it would be very difficult to find one culture or another that does not have a history of finding enjoyment in one variation or gaming or another. People love to compete against one another and they also love being rewarded for winning.
Of course places such as Paris, Monte Carlo, and Las Vegas will probably always be considered the Mecca’s of the gaming world, but online casinos are certainly nipping at their heels. Many of the high roller players that once only played in these large cities, are now showing interest in online casinos. New casinos, with the help of the Internet, have certainly taken the world by storm.
