GLOBAL GAMING BUSINESS PODCAST: Ronnie Jones, Chairman, Louisiana Gaming Control Board

The Louisiana gaming industry has gone from bad to good, and much of that credit must go to Ronnie Jones, who has been chairman of the state Gaming Control Board since 2013. Before that, he was a key member of the State Police, investigating ownership and incidents involving the riverboat gaming in the state. Jones explains the status of regulatory changes, moving the boats to land, and some interesting stories about the early days of gaming in Louisiana. He spoke with GGB Publisher Roger Gros at G2E in Las Vegas in October.
