I have been saying since the last merger that the debt payments were not sustainable. A 10% loan on $25 billion means at least $2.5 billion in interest a year. That means that most of the Caesars properties had to make $100 million profit EACH every year just to pay the interest. The best strip properties are lucky to make $100 million a year. Expect Chapter 11 soon, I am surprised they lasted as long as they did. Harrahs used to be a decent place to gamble but they have just ruined the name.
