If AC thinks it's feeling pain now, just wait until Maryland starts having their own slot joints too. They better start making some really good table games available or the city is going to be a' hurtin.
Slots in Maryland, where I have just finished campaigning against, won't help the conditions in AC, but it won't really hurt either. The slots referendum passed here is a pure joke from top to bottom, a total boondoggle and doomed to failure before it's even implemented.
What AC has to really worry about is our neighbors in Delaware who already have established slots venues. Delaware is one of only a hand full of states which is grandfathered from the Wire Act, thus giving it the option of full sports book room and moreover, there is currently legislation being proposed in Dover to enact full blown casinos with table games as well. If run properly Delaware can potentially clean AC's clock since it could establish full service casinos in cities such as Wilmington (suburb of Phil.) and Rehoboth Beach, which is the continuation of Ocean City, MD. So beware! Delaware.
