Trump Plaza Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City has become the first casino to install electronic poker tables. Two weeks ago the added 14 of the automated PokerPro tables, developed by PokerTek Inc in the East Tower gaming area.
Dave Polizzi, Trump Plaza's vice president of casino operations said, "We are the only game in town. We have a good opportunity to bring something brand new here as an attraction for the customers."
Although the initial reaction to the tables has been slow, there has been a positive response from most of the players who have tried them. Players were happy with the added speed of the games and the fact that you do not have to tip the dealer after winning a pot.
