Hook, the machines are not just in bars and restaurants in Illinois. They are also in gas station/convenience stores....and truck stops. And I pulled off the interstate at Princeton, Illinois to see a sign on a business called "Suzie's Video Poker and Slots." I went in to investigate. There were five machines, four of them being played, and a slot attendent reading a book. The slots were the only business in the building. This building was certainly not modern and probably had only about 800 square feet. I googled up this "Suzie" and found out it was a chain outfit.
Another thing I noticed about these "five machine casinos" whether they were in a bar, restaurant or gas station was they placed no extra burden on the employee's. Every location had a ticket redemption kiosk next to the machines. When one cashes out they just insert the ticket in the kiosk, grab their money, and hit the road.
