Table games roll out next month in Pennsylvania and we’re beginning to get start dates.

Tests will begin July 6 in western Pennsylvania at Presque Isle Downs Casino in Erie, the Rivers Casino in Pittsburgh and the Meadows Racetrack and Casino in Washington.

The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board said inspectors will evaluate the test results the following day and then allow table games to go live at those casinos beginning July 8 if there are no glitches.

Tests will follow July 11 at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs near Wilkes-Barre, Mount Airy Casino Resort in Mount Pocono and the Hollywood Casino at Penn National Racecourse in Grantville. Assuming there are no problems, table games at those casinos could start July 13.

A final series of tests are scheduled July 16 at Harrah’s Chester Casino and Racetrack, the Parx Casino in Bensalem and the Sands Casino Resort in Bethlehem. Those casinos could launch their table games on July 18 if the tests go well.

If any of Pennsylvania readers plan on visiting on of the table openings and would like to share thoughts, please feel free to send to eastcoastgambler(at)gmail(dot)com.  I’d love to hear and share first hand experiences.
