Senators OK Refunds to Coin Operated Poker Players
State senators moved to permit refunds of player stakes for video poker machines as part of a budget compromise. The plan pairs allowing refunds with a higher machine license fee and aims to keep machines in place while changing soft money into hard revenues. Critics call the move legalizing poker machine gambling, while supporters say it merely authorizes payouts and preserves machines.

Economists cautioned that oil imports and a strong dollar could affect future gains, while analysts at NAM and Aubrey G. Langston noted export strength remains a key growth driver for the economy.
