In 2007, Lincoln Park became the Twin River Casino, with a Class I gaming license that allowed table games and poker. Eventually it became a slots-only casino, and poker players driving through Rhode Island to play our favorite game in Connecticut's Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun wanted to know when this more convenient spot might start spreading poker.
