Everyone may get carded at casinos

Before too long, there might be a new type of card game at Illinois riverboat casinos - and everyone would have to play.

Illinois Gaming Board members are thinking about requiring every patron to hand over a driver's license or state-issued identification card for electronic scanning in order to check against a state list of "self-excluded" gamblers who have promised not to enter casinos. Currently, casino operators scan the IDs of people who appear to be younger than 30 before they can enter gaming areas.
