Parx CEO Eric Hausler testified in front of the House GOP policy committee earlier this month, and provided statistics that suggest Pennsylvania skill games are impacting casinos in the Commonwealth.

Skill games have been a controversial topic in the Pennsylvania gambling industry for years. Pace-O-Matic, a Georgia-based skill games manufacturer, is seeking regulation while also claiming that its games have no impact on the industry.

Hausler’s information argues that there is an impact. Either way, skill games appear to be headed towards regulation as Gov. Josh Shapiro proposed a 42% tax in his upcoming FY budget.

Skill games have not proliferated in neighboring states such as Delaware, New Jersey, Maryland, Ohio and New York, as they have in Pennsylvania.
