Casino owners blame smoking bans for the loss of millions of dollars in revenues, and therefore falling tax receipts for state treasuries. Illinois is one of several states in the country contemplating loopholes in statewide smoking bans to keep more gamblers and their money from slipping across the border where they can gamble unhindered in smoke-filled rooms. An Illinois Senate committee is set to deliberate Wednesday, May 11, 2011, on a bill to restore smoking privileges in casinos. (AP Photo/Mel Evans, File)
