Mohegan Tribe sees big success in Pennsylvania
The Mohegan Tribe of Connecticut is doing better than expected with its
slot machine facility in Pennsylvania.
According to the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board, gamblers have spent
nearly $1 billion since the Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs opened in November. The
average amount put into the slot machines every day has increased steadily
over the past few months.
The tribe has already made plans to expand the facility. The new
300,000-square-foot casino will cost $180 million.
The tribe is also bringing in new games. Players can now gamble at "virtual"
blackjack tables.
