Wow! I can honestly say I am surprised at this. That is the same rake as Atlantic City. Based upon previous experiences with Delaware casinos, I was expecting a $5 or $6 max rake, because to them, it is not about the customer, but the almighty dollar. I am also surprised that will have a BBJ up and running by opening day as well.
I live between Delaware Park and Dover Downs, and 2.5 hours from Atlantic City. Now that Delaware has table games, poker with a rake similar to Atlantic City, and sports betting (I know, limited, but hopefully the Supreme Court overturns the current ruling) I do not believe I will be making as many, if any, trips to Atlantic City in the future. That is a savings of over $50 a month just in gasoline, tolls, meals, and taxes on comped rooms.
Well done Delaware and Delaware Park!
