Kennedy International Airport and added dealer-led games that many city players previously traveled to nearby states to find.<\/p>\n<p>Genting won its license while several major casino groups missed out, including Wynn Resorts, Las Vegas Sands, Caesars Entertainment, and MGM Resorts. The company said it pays 63% tax on slot revenue and 30% on table game revenue. Its bid also included a clause allowing its tax rate to drop to competitor levels once the other licensed casinos open.<\/p>\n<p>Bally\u2019s plans a Bronx casino on a golf course bought from The Trump Organization.
