Two PA casinos had petitions granted at the latest Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board (PGCB) monthly meeting to modify their gaming floors.

Hollywood Casino Morgantown has been granted to reduce the number of slot machines on its gaming porch.

Lady Luck Nemacolin is redesigning its gaming floor to include the addition of several slot machines, while giving some rentals back to parent company Churchill Downs Incorporated (CDI).

Marc Guastella, general manager of Hollywood Casino Morgantown, and legal representative, Michael Fabius of Ballard Spahr, presented the PGCB modifications the casino wants to make. Hollywood Casino Morgantown is removing 30 slot machines from its gaming porch to adjust the total there from 147 to 117.
