Rhode Island casino Twin River, is attempting once again to get permission to include table games at their slots parlor. The casino have been turned down by legislatures several times over the years but now it appears that Governor Lincoln Chafee may be behind such a measure.
Chaffee told the press that there is not much difference between video versions and real versions of casino games. The casino already offers video gambling machine versions of popular table games so he doesn't see the harm in adding them to the casino. While many gamblers are excited about the prospect of table games being added they disagree with Chafee's assertions that video versions of the games are the same thing.
"I play the video machines they have at Twin River, but I would much rather have the human interaction," said Twin River regular William Burns. "If I am going to lose my money, I'd rather do it while being able to talk to the dealers and other people at the table. At least then I would feel I got my money's worth."
Last year Legislators passed a bill that would have allowed Rhode Island residents to decide on the issue for themselves, but Former Governor Don Carcieri vetoed the bill. Now that he is out of office, Twin River will have far better chances of getting the new games approved.
