There's a shitload of money in St Augustine (St Johns has quietly become the wealthiest county in Florida over the past decade) and that trendline is only going upward.
Also, the tourism base there has really changed over the past 30 years, its
a lot higher income now.
It might take a bit of time to get rolling, but St Augustine is as good a place as any in Florida to run higher stakes games, vastly more attractive to whales than having to be in Jacksonville or Orange Park. Only downside is that there aren't a lot of high quality dealers in the area, but I'm sure they could manage a few.
