Indiana lawmakers likely are not done tweaking the state's gambling rules, even after last year's changes to the industry.

The racinos long asked the legislature to allow them to have live dealers for their table games, arguing they were more appealing to players than electronic games.

Executives of Indianapolis-based Spectacle Entertainment say they hope to start construction this year on currently vacant land along Interstate 80/94.

Lawmakers approved what one legislator called a monumental shift to Indianas gambling industry before the 2019 session ended Wednesday.

The sessions gaming bill passed the House Monday. But many supporters say they want a number of changes to the final version of the bill.

After substantial changes were made to this session's gaming bill, an amendment was added Thursday to increase transparency.

Lawmakers severed the ties between a Gary casino and potential new casino in Terre Haute.

The changes made Wednesday still let the Gary casino move off the water but it now attaches a $100 million fee to that move.

One Senate gaming bill would allow Gary to move its existing casino off the waterfront, and allow an unused license in the city to go to Terre Haute. But another bill says the other license could move anywhere in the state, as chosen by the Indiana Gaming Commission.

The legislation would allow for higher prize payouts and more nonprofits to offer charity gaming, and reduce the number of license types.
