Gaming IB Coverage

Hi all,

I was wondering if anybody could give me some insight into Gaming coverage groups. I've looked through a lot of the past posts and researched online but had a few other questions. What are some typical exit opps for those in Gaming coverage groups? Also, it looks like the top players on the street are BAML, DB, CS, GS, Wells, Greenhill, and Lazard, does that sound about right? Lastly, what type of deals are most Gaming deals? Doesn't seem like a ton of M&A so I'm guessing there's a lot of debt deals which explains why BB with a large balance sheet would be strong. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a bunch!

Have a friend who was in one of the groups above - know he did a decent amount of real estate. His exit opp was the credit arm of a well-known PE fund, which would probably suggest your assumptions re: debt deals is correct.
