Soon it might be more difficult to concentrate on the cards at one Atlantic City, N.J., casino.

The Tropicana Casino and Resort is creating a new "party pit" near its Rumba Lounge nightclub where female blackjack and roulette dealers will wear bustiers and stockings.

It's part of a trend in the nation's second-largest gambling market to sex things up as the competition for the gambling dollar grows ever fiercer.

The casino tells The Associated Press it's hiring "nice-looking" dealers to work the six blackjack and two roulette tables while in the sexy new costumes, which will debut over the July 4th weekend.

They come on the heels of revealing flapper costumes that female cocktail servers at Resorts Casino Hotel must wear. Those outfits already have generated two lawsuits.
