Deep Dive: Take a punt on this episode | Casinos

James Packer's company Crown Resorts (ASX: CWN) was in the headlines this week after it was revealed that US-based Wynn Resorts (NASDAQ: WYNN) was interested in a takeover. While Wynn are saying they are no longer interested in Crown, it got us here at Equity Mates interested in the Australian gambling industry. So here is our 'shallow dive' into the Australian gambling industry (think deep dive while trying to keep to our 20 min or less episode length).
