The new Illinois gambling law is barely two weeks old, but the state is currently behind on where it should be. Illinois was supposed to pick a firm to study a Chicago casino by the beginning of the week but that has yet to happen and may take a while still because Illinois has not filled out the state’s gaming board.
Governor Pritzker said it would eventually and in due time. A study is required to figure out the best way to move forward to build a casino in Chicago and to locate the best possible location for it. The deadline to start movement on the other five casinos outside of Chicago is in Mid-October.
