keno is a game where the odds of winning are about as equal to the mega lottery, the lottery has a payback of 50%. the casinos rate is 91%…..it is said poor people dont pay taxes so this is why the state runs the lottery.
I call it a tax on stupid people.

if ohio would legalize casino gambling….no crime doesnt follow. the organized crime isnt in the business anymore, gambling would create jobs and taxes for ohio residents, get the 1960's mentality out of the equation or continue watching ohios money cross the borders to that "crime ridden" town that mountaineer casino is located!

I would like to see an entire town built in central ohio from the ground up with more options than las vegas,Branson took over nashvilles crown of country music , why couldnt ohio do the same to las vegas?

It is to help the schools? Why then is there so many schools in need? Where did the money go that was supposed to go to the schools? I can answer that. The same place the settlement from the tobacco companies went and thats into the states fat pockets. It didnt go to help anyone who got sick from smoking. And as far as the games of chance this is as bad of a ripoff as the lottery….I say get rid of the whole thing and lets make an honest living…

I saw Ted Strictland at Wheeling Island just before he got sworn in. He took our Skilled Gaming away Oh and made a system that if you owe back unemployment they take you tax refund to recover there money . As far as im concerned. This state is going to go back republician so he cant get nothing done during his term. Bingo pays more then $10. The skilled gaming also pays prises then you take the prises and get cash down the street at the parlors other place so what did he accomplished in my book nothing.

I dont know…I have wondered that myself. I think it is your payouts or prizes have to below $10. Obviously most places closed because no one wanted to gamble for a prize less than $10 – like something you would win at Cedar Point.

Keno, craps, slots, blackjack it all sounds like gambling to me. But if they want to play the semantic game all they have to do is refer to the first sentence in the American Heritage dictionary. " A game of chance similar to lotto"
