  预计到年底,宾夕法尼亚就会取代新泽西州东海岸博彩之都的地位,宾夕法尼亚在过去几年为获得博彩头把交椅而一直在积极行动。

  福吉谷度假村在周五取得最终许可之后周六将向众多赌客敞开大门,福吉谷将成为宾夕法尼亚的第11家赌场,也是2004年以后批准开业的第一家小型赌场。

  宾夕法尼亚州在近年来开设的拥有数千老虎机和数百赌台的大型赌场不多,福吉谷相对较小,只有600台老虎机和50张赌台,不过对未来的赌客来说赌场的大小并没有关系。

  “哪怕他们只有100台老虎机我也要去”沃尔特说“我一直不得不旅行去玩扑克和老虎机,在家门口就有赌场是多好的事儿啊,周六开张我一定会去的,我相信以后的几个月我会在那里度过大量时间的。”

  福吉谷的管理者过去两天一直很繁忙,根据法律规定,赌场要测试运营两天,以便管理机关确定赌场的设施运转正常、运营符合管理规定,赌场在周五得到许可的第二天就开业了。

  “测试很顺利”福吉谷的董事长兼CEO萨维里。奥斯凯里说“我们迫不及待要在午夜向公众开放”。

  在福吉谷国家历史公园郊外午夜开放一家新的娱乐场所让很多宾夕法尼亚居民兴奋不已。“我和朋友们为这次户外活动已经筹划了几个月了”萨拉说“我们会先去晚餐,然后看电影,最后在赌场度过这个夜晚,希望像大家所说的那样美好”。

  福吉谷不仅仅有赌场,还有夜总会、酒吧和餐馆,赌场的宴会空间按惯例是可以利用的,表演功能也是新娱乐场所的一个部分。

  Pennsylvania Set To Open 11th Casino On Saturday

  Pennsylvania is expected to surpass New Jersey as the casino gambling capital of the East Coast by the end of the year, and it is their rapid movement into the industry over the past few years that has the state poised to take over the top spot.

  On Saturday, the Valley Forge Casino Resort will open its door to hundreds of gamblers after the facility received the final regulatory approval on Friday. Valley Forge is set to become the 11th casino in Pennsylvania, but it will be the first of the smaller casinos approved back in 2004.

  Pennsylvania has opened a handful of major casino resorts in recent years, with each facility hosting thousands of slot machines and hundreds of table games. Valley Forge will be on the smaller side, home to 600 slots and 50 table games. The size of the casino does not matter to some future customers.

  "I would go even if they had only 100 slot machines," said Walter Bigsby. "I have always had to travel to play slots and poker, so having a casino so close to my home is going to be great. I'll be there when it opens Saturday, and I'm sure I'll spend plenty of time there in the coming months."

  The past two days have been hectic for Valley Forge operators. As is required by law, the casino held two nights of trial games, where regulators ensured that all machines were operating properly and met regulatory standards.

  "The testing went smoothly," said Saverio Scheri, CEO and President of Valley Forge Casino Resort. "We cannot wait to open our doors to the public at midnight."

  The midnight opening has many Pennsylvania residents excited about the prospects of a new entertainment destination on the outskirts of Valley Forge National Historic Park.

  "My friends and I have been planning this outing tonight for months," said Sarah Grasken. "We are going out to dinner, then we are going to the movies and we are going to finish our night over at the casino. Hopefully it will be as nice as everyone says it is going to be."

  Valley Forge will not only be about gambling. The facility has a nightclub, bars, and restaurants. Banquet space is available, as is customary with a casino resort, and a performance theatre is also part of the new entertainment destination.
