Atlantic City is officially down to seven casinos following Monday’s closure of the Trump Taj Mahal.

The Taj Mahal officially closed its doors at 6am on Monday, following a weekend of staggered shutdowns of its various entertainment offerings. The property is the fifth AC casino to close since four venues closed in 2014. Monday’s closure spells the end of over 2,800 local jobs, bringing the total casino job loss since 2014 to over 11k.

The Taj Mahal closed after two years of squabbling between the property’s last owner, billionaire investor Carl Icahn, and its unionized employees, who couldn’t come to an agreement that would have allowed the struggling property to continue operating.

The Taj Mahal filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in September 2014, after which Icahn assumed ownership of the property. But Unite Here Local 54 refused to accept a court ruling that allowed Icahn to scrap the unionized employees’ pension and health benefits.

The Philippines has received 76 applications for its new ‘offshore’ online gambling licenses, the first of which should be issued this month.

On Monday, Andrea Domingo, CEO of the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), told local media that 76 online gambling firms had filed applications for the new licenses, plans for which PAGCOR had originally announced in mid-September.

Business World Online quoted Domingo saying PAGCOR expected to give initial approval to the first 25 online licenses “before the end of October” and that these licenses would be valid for one year. Domingo said applicants understand that PAGCOR “might be changing the rules and regulations” prior to the expiry of the one-year licenses.

Speaking following a meeting with the House of Representatives’ Committee on Games and Amusements, Domingo noted that PAGCOR would use the first three to six months of the new licensing regime to “study” the activities of approved online gambling operators and adjust its regulatory approach accordingly.

Starting October 2017, prepaid debit cards in the United States will be subjected to tighter regulations.

The standard of regulation for prepaid debit cards, proposed by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, is expected to match “that of bank accounts and bank-issued credit cards in terms of loss compensation, fee disclosure and overdraft fees,” said National Consumer Law Center Associate Director Lauren Saunders.

In an interview with the New York Times, Saunders said, “The rules bring prepaid cards out of the shadows, with protections that in many ways are stronger than those for traditional bank accounts.” The National Consumer Law Center lobbied the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau for the new rules.

Under the new regulations, prepaid debit cards—typically sold in convenience stores—will have to start carrying a standardized disclosure of the card’s monthly fee, and detail the charges for cash withdrawals, customer service calls, reloading and other debit card-related activities. Prepaid card companies are also required to offer liability protection “on par with the coverage that applies to credit cards.”

Macau casino junket investor Iao Kun Group Holding Company (IKGH) has alerted investors that its dire Q2 financial numbers were actually even more dire than originally reported.

Late last month, IKGH announced a net loss of $104.4m in the three months ending June 30. On Friday, IKGH announced that it was boosting these losses by a further $21.5m, bringing the total net loss for Q2 to $125.8m.

IKGH says the extra $21.5m came from a further study of the $159.2m in outstanding VIP debts the company is carrying on its books. IKGH says that the $21.5m is at “an elevated risk of collectability.” IKGH director Jim Preissler said last month that around $40m of its VIP debts were over 180 days outstanding.

IKGH has been in a financial tailspin for the past two years, a downturn that accelerated rapidly in September. The company closed all but one of its Macau VIP rooms and saw its highly publicized acquisition of a South Korean casino come to naught when it couldn’t raise the necessary financing on time.
