The casinos, the Indians, and the state lotteries all lobbied hard for this, they think it will reign in the competition.

You know, I wonder if that isn't part of it as well. You see all these casinos are starting to eat each other. I mean in my area of 400,000 people there are at least 4 casinos (that I remember) and another dozen or so within driving distance.

Anyone know if the profits from the casinos are starting to stagnate? I know that in some states a lot of stuff does not have to be reported, but it would be interesting to find out.

You know, it the online traffic has to be hurting the brick joints. PA's new casinos are supposed to open within weeks in this environment.

I have lost all interest in traveling, parking, walking-around in general to play poker. I even dropped out of the neighborhood home game. It's just easier to play on line.
