Default NYS to withdraw VLTs deal from Aqueduct?

http://www.nypost.com/p/blogs/knicke...eaRINjnDi7avxO

In a stunning reversal, Gov. Paterson’s office has sent a letter threatening to kill the deal with AEG to open 4,500 casino slots at Aqueduct race track in Queens, The Post has learned.

In a March 5 letter, top aides to Paterson told Aqueduct Entertainment Group the state will "withdraw its support" for the project by noon today if the firm fails to submit applications for all its investors to obtain a gaming license from the New York Lottery.
