Almost Have Slots, Let’s Move on to
Tables
It seemed as
though the race tracks that are vying for slot machine licenses, might
have had nothing else on their minds. After all, they have waited
eighteen months to have slot machine licenses issued – and they still
don’t have them. Yet, when the Gaming Control Board asked if they
might be prepared to move on to table games from slot machines, they
all said yes.
It seems that
the Gaming Control Board members are not the only ones looking to find
the next revenue – considering all of the states around them that
offer slot machines as well – Pennsylvania needs to up the ante and
bring in table games as well to keep their numbers up.
Since it took
so long to get slot machine licenses, that by the way, they still
don’t have, it would seem that there is no rush to get table game
licenses. However, the board wants to be sure that when and if they
decide to move that direction, everyone is prepared. They don’t want
to have to start from scratch like they did with the slot machines.
Most times
they are actually done in conjunction with each other – bring in the
slot machines and you bring in the table games. Pennsylvania may have
decided to go the long way around at getting in their table games, but
who is to say if they will even bring them in. If so, it would be a
first for the gambling industry.
