World's casino kings betting on a Macau boom


MACAU (AP): Chinese businessman Cao Yanglin let his lunch of slow-cooked beef rib with truffle puree and lemon cream sauce go cold as he talked about his gambling spree the night before at the baccarat tables in Macau _ the world's new epicenter for gambling. 

The 58-year-old property developer said he won US$3,840 (euro2,907) at the Las Vegas-style Wynn Macau casino hotel, where he was enjoying his noon meal. But he said he lost US$7,680 (euro5,813) at the new Grand Lisboa, shaped like a giant Faberge egg covered in flashing lights.
