“I think we will very quickly be able to demonstrate that the (central Indiana) market can support two to three times as many table games as we’re currently set up with,” Nita said. Eric Holcomb in May that included the legalization of sports betting and allowing construction of new casinos in Gary and Terre Haute.ĭan Nita, regional president for Caesars Entertainment, which owns the Anderson and Shelbyville casinos, said he expected both sites will soon expand their live table game sections. But that date was moved up by 18 months in a wide-ranging gambling bill signed by Republican Gov.
Mike Pence objected to that change being included in a 2015 gambling bill approved by state lawmakers. Live dealers weren’t going to be allowed at the horse track casinos until July 2021 as then-Gov. “I just like the live people,” Johnson said.
