HARRSIBURG (AP) -- Poker, blackjack and other table games should be up and running at two Pennsylvania casinos later this year. The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board approved Tuesday the first two petitions filed under a new law that allows table games to be added to the state's slot-machine casinos. The initial approvals are for the Mohegan Sun Casino at the Pocono Downs Racetrack near Wilkes-Barre and Parx Casino at the Philadelphia Park Racetrack in suburban Philadelphia. Officials from the two casinos told the gaming board they would hire almost a thousand new full-time employees to staff the table games.
