Seems like table games are a fait d'acompli in Delaware:

Makes sense to compete with PA.
Another nail in the coffin for Atlantic City.

Quote: DudeMakes sense to compete with PA.
PA, WV, DE, NJ are rapidly raising the stakes, so to speak, to keep from losing the gambling revenue of their own residents to a quick trip across the border. Table games are going to be all over the place, with Virginia seeming to be the hold-out.
It'll be interesting to me to see what MD does next, that state is having trouble selling licenses for its newly allowed Slots... apparently not too good of a deal.... I'm starting to see why investors held off.
the next time Dame Fortune toys with your heart, your soul and your wallet, raise your glass and praise her thus: “Thanks for nothing, you cold-hearted, evil, damnable, nefarious, low-life, malicious monster from Hell!” She is, after all, stone deaf. ... Arnold Snyder

The downtown Philadelphia locations still have not opened. There are two racinos within 20 miles of city hall in either direction along the river. The Foxwoods PA was originally proposed for a fading industrial area of the river, but is being moved to a shuttered Strawbridge and Clothier Department store in center city.
Sugar House Casino is under construction on the waterfront only 2.5 miles from city hall. This new acceptance of casinos directly in city center is unusual since PA was always very conservative about vice given their historic roots.
I wonder if NJ will expand their gambling from atlantic city to urban locations such as Camden and Possibly Meadowlands Arena near NYC.
BTW Ohio has voted to legalize casinos as well.
