The NBA will lobby for a percentage of the action. All of the major professional sport leagues will follow suit. 

Hard Rock Atlantic City will be the market leader in Atlantic City. This will happen by the end of the year. Hard Rock will enter the region with the most visible brand and the newest venue. The entertainment lineup will surpass Borgata and Tropicana. This will bring crowds after the summer season ends. Borgata will counter with property upgrades. Tropicana will work the online space and grow that side of  their business.

Pennsylvania will continue to see an increase in table games and poker revenue while slots will trend down. As the clientele gets younger, the demand for slot play decreases. Even with the current expansion of gaming, expect the online space to reflect the current brick and mortar models.
