Which are both hard to get to without public transport that one sees in Chicago proper (PACE barely counts). A lot of folks in the city don’t own a car. At the same time those same folks are probably smarter than to spend money at gambling parlors.

It'd also be like a $5 uber/lyft from the metra. My suspicion is that urban gamblers mostly take the blue line to the shuttle to Rivers.
