08 JANUARY 2007 - MANAGUA, NICARAGUA:  A woman plays the slot machines in a "casino" in Mercado Oriental, the main market that serves Managua, Nicaragua. The market encompasses dozens of square blocks and is the largest market in Central America. The government of Violetta Chamorro legalized gambling in 1990. There are casinos in most of the tourist hotels and dozens of small "mom and pop" slot machine casinos in the market. Photo by Jack Kurtz
