GLOBAL GAMING BUSINESS PODCAST: Frank Leone, CEO, Ocean Resort

It’s an exciting week in Atlantic City. Two new casinos are opening, with the focus being on Hard Rock. But Frank Leone, the CEO of the second casino, Ocean Resort, warns experts not to miss his casino, the former Revel property. With more than 30 years experience in the Atlantic City market, Leone aims to correct all the errors the former Revel managers made and take advantage of the vast amenities and features that were previously underplayed. Gamblers, he says, will be welcomed with open arms and rewarded with superior benefits. He spoke with GGB Publisher Roger Gros after a tour of the new Ocean last week in Atlantic City.
