|

It has just been announced Pennsylvania is putting together a bill to add table games such as poker and blackjack to slot machines.
If this passes I cant see New York , New Jersey or Delaware being far behind. |

This makes no sense... How do you add poker and blackjack to a slot machine? Please elaborate, cause all I see is:
poker + blackjack + slotmachine = roullette |

| I think he or she means that places will be able to offer these games, instead of just slots. |

It's funny because it's obvious and I didn't get it either... I'm still working on that first pot of coffee though. |

| The bill has not been submitted yet. It was discussed as one of the State Representatives is proposing to write a bill that would alow the municipalities to decide for themselves whether they would allow table games in the casinos. As of right now, the only gambling allowed in the casinos are slot machines. There were many who came out and expressed displeasure at table games being mentioned this soon in the "casino experiment" of Pennsylvania. Slot casinos just opened up two weeks ago. |
