Ever since 2006, when Macau first jumped ahead of Las Vegas in terms of revenue intake from casinos, Macau has continued to grow into the majestic gambling empire of the world... read more
In terms of the actual numerical revenues of the
city due to taxation of gambling establishments,
Macau is still quite a large distance behind Las
Vegas in terms of the money that it gets from
gambling and that in turn is a reflection on the
fact that gambling is not as big in Macau as it
is in Las Vegas . Many people know that Macau is
going to have grow quite a bit more if they ever
hope to challenge Las Vegas for supremacy of the
gambling world and while they are not expected
to do this anytime soon, they do have something
going for them. Unlike many of the other
gambling areas of the world outside Las Vegas ,
Macau has been able to prove that it is an area
of more than just casinos. One of the
establishments that prove this point is
Canidrome and for that reason Canidrome is a
very important venue to discuss when talking
about casinos and gambling establishments that
you find in Macau .
One of the main reasons that Canidrome is so
important is that it happens to be an area of
the city that is devoted to racing rather than
to table games and for that reason represents an
entirely different gambling experience.
Specifically, greyhounds are the racers on the
floor of Canidrome and they race four times a
week on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday.
The races start promptly at 7:45 in the evening
in the local time zone and they cycle through 16
different races before the night is over. All in
all, the racing experience is very thorough,
very accurate and held down to time limits that
are extraordinary in terms of the finer points
of their planning. This makes greyhound racing
at Canidrome something that racers of all kinds
will love and of course the fact that you can
gamble on the outcomes of the races before
watching the actual races go forward is a point
that many people love.
Generally speaking, the people that run
Canidrome frown on the idea of simply going to
the races for the purposes of watching the
racers compete. You are expected to make bets
when you go and watch the game because the only
way the Canidrome facility can recover its money
is through betting revenues that are provided by
people like you. With that having been said
however, it is possible to treat the greyhound
races like a sporting event and attend then
without the purpose of gambling just so that you
can see the racing action up close and personal.
If you do that however be sure that you will be
subjected to a surcharge of MOP 10.00. Everyone
pays this surcharge but you can get it back by
placing a bet on at least one of the races. This
is considered a fair system by most of the
people that have used it and the high delivery
standards of this system combined with the great
racing choice on any given day makes Canidrome a
worthy race book service for people to take a
look at.
