Table Games Revenue in Florida

Florida gaming revenue is different than most districts in the country. Corporations don’t operate the casinos in Florida. The Seminole Tribe doesn’t report gaming revenue like most casino operators. The Department of Business and Professional Regulation is the State Compliance Agency for Florida. This department covers the state’s oversight of gambling. This ensures that everything agreed to in the Gaming Compact between the Seminole Tribe of Florida and the State of Florida is adhered to.

Example: (on, off, off, on, off, off, on, off, off, etc.)
I'm not sure if the players at table games can be thus 'separated'. I've heard the State of Florida may let them do this, especially since the Seminole Hard Rock is such a big payday for their state budget.
CHANGE. Just got an email from the casino. They are closing it all down, statewide. But, nice try guys,
