Revenues are down at Connecticut's two tribal casinos but poker games are still drawing in customers in large numbers.
”Just last weekend, our tables were full and people were waiting in line for seats,” Terry Chiaradio, the director of poker operations at the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation's
Foxwoods Resort Casino, told The New London Day.
The story was similar at the nearby Mohegan Sun, owned by the Mohegan Tribe. Poker games returned to the casino in August after a five-year hiatus.
Both casinos host high-stakes poker tournaments that draw large numbers of players and observers.
