As reported by the BBC News: "A hearing to put forward Cardiff's bid to site
the UK's first super-casino has heard all bidders still have a chance. "The
Casino Advisory Panel chairman said it was 'wide open' between the seven
locations hoping to win the licence to run a 24-hour Las Vegas-style venue.
"Only one super-casino is initially being permitted under the terms of the
Gambling Act. ".Cardiff council's bid is tied to its sports village
development in Cardiff Bay, and has said it needs the casino to finish the
project in time for the 2012 London Olympics, when it hopes to be a host
venue. "Tom Morgan, for Cardiff Council, told the panel that the city was
uniquely placed to host the super-casino. "He said awarding it to Cardiff
would also help the UK and Wales host the Ryder Cup at Newport in 2010 and
the Olympics in London two years later."
