Pennsylvania set an all-time high for gross revenue from table games last month, figures bolstered by the opening of the state's 11th casino.There were an average of 1,028 tables in operation across the state in March, and they brought in gross revenue of $61.9 million.The latest take beats the previous all-time high for table games, when Pennsylvania casinos raked in $56.6 million with an average of 854 tables operating in February.

"Pennsylvania casinos have worked hard to refine the amount and mix of table games to meet their customer bases and maximize revenue," gaming board Chairman William H. Ryan Jr. said in a statement. "I am optimistic that the growth in the table game sector will continue."Pennsylvania taxes casino revenue and uses it to support the state budget, public schools, civic development projects, volunteer firefighting squads, local governments and the horse racing industry.The growth in table games revenue is another sign of the state's growing casino market, which recently surpassed Atlantic City to become the country's second-largest behind Las Vegas.By law, the state could one day be home to 14 casinos.A resort outside Pittsburgh was awarded a license, but that decision is being challenged in the state Supreme Court.
