Crises of terrestrial casinos: The damage was limited thanks to the poker
The year 2008 would have been one year particularly hard for the majority of casinos established on the French territory and 2009 did not bring anything to the situation already alarming of these casinos. The reason of this recession: the economic crisis which touches almost of all activities. Be added to that, the Evin law which prohibits smoking in public areas like casinos and the routine inspections of identities at the entry of casinos which cause the decrease of the number of customer. 60% of the French casinos have problems and finishes the working year 2009 with a negative outcome. Even the great groups of casino like Barrière, Partouche, Joagroupe or Tranchant, have a lot of difficulty to surmount it. For the year 2009, the gross product of gambling fell to 8.2%.
The poker came to the aid of these establishments of gambling because it had permitted to attract more players on casinos thanks to the poker phenomenon which has touched for a few years the Hexagon thanks to the boom of sites of online poker. Internet became the ideal place for training on poker for young people who go in for terrestrial casinos after the familiarization to the game to discover new feelings which are often different that those that they feel in front of their computer. Of course, operators in the world of casino count over a year 2010 much better than the previous year, but the doubts and uncertainties still remain. Particularly concerning the law about the opening of the market of online gambling to the competition which could insert a little more the knife in the wound.
