The Associated Press profiles Ted Arneault, the CEO of MTR gaming group and most visible proponent of allowing casino table games at West Virginia's racetracks.
"The diminutive, dapper man with the expensive suits and shiny shoes has become the bane of those in West Virginia who fear and fight the expansion of gambling," the AP's Vicki Smith reports. "But the president of Mountaineer Racetrack and Gaming Resort says his work to expand gambling the past 15 years has been about much more."
Arneault cheered on voters in Mountaineer's home county of Hancock when they OK'd table games Saturday, 59 percent to 41 percent.
