OT I've never known of a broke bookie, but I've just read a terrific book about a broke stockbroker! Have a look at the guy's website. WWW.Oldies-inc.com A real page turner of a rags to riches story

its the way they said that results went against them on their update too.All the other bookies said they had been great..We all know Fred's going to get the shops,Appollo the online bit .Fred's 6% of the vote was the game changer..He's made so much on the shares too he will get the shops for nothing and they got rid off all the one's that didn't make 50k a year profit...!!!Oh well like you said thing to do is to buy Ceasar's..!

Handily for Hills and even more so Caesars the best 4 NFL weekends for the bookies this season have been all in November weeks 8,9,10 & 11....the last 4. Hills 4th Q results will be astonishingly good All you can do is moan, while buying Caesars (which I have)

You can sell them now and get your money in 3 days or wait a few months and get 4p more

[chris79] 20/11/2020 14:19

When roughly will money be received?

[nashwan123] 20/11/2020 09:31

adeg well said re poor deal for LTH. One with growing deals in the USA is GMR and I hope they are left alone!

[smartie6] 20/11/2020 09:28

Great deal guys, you should all be extremely happy. Those buying in at 316p must have been crazy. Pure gambling.

[merism] 19/11/2020 23:16

Caesars is so strategically important to WH, Apollo or an interloper were never going to disrupt the 272 deal.

[adeg] 19/11/2020 14:08

game over, well done Caesars.

[psmith1110] 17/11/2020 14:25

Anyone seen or heard anything about major shareholders (apart from the Done Bros.) coming out in support of the offer ?

[adeg] 16/11/2020 13:00

no it's a "good" deal based on the recent share price, but its not "great" for long term holders. This is an opportunistic bid that will probably succeed and they have sold out before the potential can be realised.

[smartie6] 16/11/2020 12:12

Get it done. Stop messing around. It’s a great deal, isn’t it?

[prettygreen] 15/11/2020 20:41

Sunday Telegraph reporting that WMH biggest shareholder Fred Done is backing the takeover. Juicy carrot being the sell off of the UK business ...

[the white house] 12/11/2020 18:58

Apollo just splashed 2bn in Canada on casinos etc and 500m in Czech on the lottery....Poorly played hand, should have bought up 30pc here earlier

[mip55] 12/11/2020 07:55

Interesting statement from Apollo this morningNot making a bid but we may change our minds if..... and we may be interested in some of the WH bits ....https://www.londonstockexchange.com/news-article/market-news/statement-regarding-william-hill-plc/14752865

Smartie, I've already told you I think closer to £4 per share is the right price. The US operation is worth £2.72 by itself plus the European side. I am more than happy if this gets voted down and the price drops back below £2. I will pick up more as, IMO, in the next 2 to 3 years this will go over £4 per share in the normal market. They are only currently operating in 14 out of 50 states in the US, massive market, massive potential. Caesars are getting this on the cheap. What I don't understand is why aren't Caesars buying shares in the market. The price is below their offer price so every share they buy saves them money and more importantly gets them another guaranteed vote. Circa 28 million shares were traded in the last 3 days below the offer price, 2.6% of the company, they should be building themselves a stake at a reduced price.

[prettygreen] 11/11/2020 15:44

Still a possibility of a rival coming in .. if not it may get voted down and we end up with a higher offer from Caesars

[smartie6] 11/11/2020 14:19

FFS. How much profit do you want? They always said TWH was a deeeeeek but now I guess you’ve proven it.

[the white house] 11/11/2020 13:55

Pointed remark from Flutter boss that they did NOT see any negativity from sports events with no attendees that the Hills boss ludicrously claimed as a negative (to put off rival bidders') in their Q update. Shameful this whole in house deal

[smartie6] 11/11/2020 09:26

Anyone still being greedy on here? 272p is more than a fair price imho. Gambling on a bidding war. FFS.

[adeg] 06/11/2020 16:00

I'm not greedy, I simply think my shares are worth more than £2.72. Yes I've made a profit, and a good one at that, but I still think there is more money to make in the US market. The shares would be worth twice this price in 2 years time, once the product is rolled out across the whole of the US not just the current 14 states they are operating in. Therefore I have voted no. The price has dipped below £2.72 so lets see if Caesars start hoovering up shares.
