Anything is possible but I would like to see it reported in a more credible site than a Vegas Blog site. I know Phil Ruffin has expressed interest in purchasing the Mirage.

Wynn is becoming a joke.

Domestic beers only for poker players
No comps for bar top video poker players
Changed blackjack to 6:5 instead of 3:2
Just changed craps to double odds only instead of 3x4x5 (to put that into perspective, I believe only circus circus offers such bad odds)

Sorry, but Wynn is no officially a cheap clip joint unless you're a whale.

MGM will not sell their Southern Strip properties, they are heavily reinvesting in the South properties.

Fountainbleu is a complete demolish project, there is absolutely no way it will be saved.

Wynn wont be buying anything.

Venetian may be a future surprise.

And none of that matters in this context. What matters is if he has the money to do the deal. And as far as far as I can tell Wynn/Encore is one of the most profitable casinos on the strip. So, he probably does.

I agree with this. They're banking that land for future development

Why, age? He could easily come up with the money.

Both Wynn and LV Sands as corporations need to be looking at their succession plans. One wonders what happens to either/both when their founders are out of the picture.

You dont think the people in place could run them? Only family run casinos in small markets need to worry about succession. The big publicly traded companies can manage just fine.

Wynn and Sands are pretty tightly held corporations, even though they are publicly traded. Mom and Pop stores on massive steroids.

Why would you say it doesnt matter? Why would you hope that Wynn buys it just because he has the money to do the deal? Your statement reads that because it is profitable and because he has the money you hope he will buy it.

Sorry, but unless you're last name is also Wynn those facts should make zero difference. As an end user I care about the gaming experience, and Wynn is systematically gutting his, why the hell would I want him to buy another casino and gut that too?
