    Video Lottery Terminals and Electronic Table Games: Similar in appearance to classic slot machines or as simulated classic table games, these terminals are linked to a centralized system maintained by the Gaming Commission that tracks the game play and earnings for each game.

    • Video Lottery Terminals (VLTs) have the same appearance as slot machines. VLTs must receive winning outcomes transmitted by the central system.
    • Electronic Table Games (ETGs) offer video versions of popular casino games like roulette, craps, and baccarat. ETGs are capable of generating winning outcomes at each table.

    Video lottery gaming operations began in 2004 at Saratoga Gaming & Raceway in Saratoga Springs and have since expanded to eight additional facilities. As of January 1, 2013, there were 17,213 such machines operating in New York State.

    Indian Gaming: In 1988 Congress passed the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act permitting federally recognized Indian tribes the ability to conduct gaming activities under certain circumstances. This law allows traditional Indian gaming, bingo, pull tabs, lotto, punch boards, tip jars, and certain card games on tribal land. However, it requires a Tribal/State compact for all other forms of gaming. Three tribes have lawful gaming in New York State:

    • The Seneca Nation of Indians operate the Class III Seneca Niagara Casino in Niagara Falls, the Class III Seneca Allegany Casino, the Class III Seneca Buffalo Casino in Buffalo, and Class II bingo on both their Cattaraugus and Allegany Reservation lands
    • The St. Regis Mohawks operate the Class II Mohawk Bingo Palace and the Class III Akwesasne Mohawk Casino, which also houses Class II poker games
    • The Oneida Indian Nation of New York operates the Turning Stone Casino, which houses both Class II bingo and poker, as well as its Class III gaming operations.

    The Gaming Commission maintains a constant twenty-four hour presence within the gaming facilities of the five Class III facilities to maintain the integrity of all activities conducted in regard to Class III gaming, and to insure the fair and honest operation of such gaming activities. Additionally, the State conducts background investigations on all employees of the casino and enterprises who conduct gaming related business with the casino to ensure their suitability. Pursuant to each Compact the State jointly regulates Class III gaming facilities with a Nation or Tribal Gaming Agency, respectively. Class II gaming activities, e.g., bingo, pull tabs, lotto, punch boards, tip jars, and certain card games, are regulated by the Tribe in conjunction with the National Indian Gaming Commission, although tribes, under certain circumstances, may self-regulate these activities.

  • Responsible Gaming

    The New York State Gaming Commission, the Office of Alcoholism and Substance Abuse Services (OASAS) and the New York Council on Problem Gambling have formed the Responsible Play Partnership to address problem gambling in New York State. The Responsible Play Partnership is addressing a variety of issues surrounding problem gambling, including ensuring that gaming venues comply with all rules and regulations and undertake proper outreach measures, reevaluating self-exclusion policies across the state to ensure consistency, and considering the best ways to advance New York’s long-term commitment to prevent and treat compulsive gambling.

    The issue of problem gambling is an important one. If you need help or want information, or know someone else who does, here are some places to start:

In an effort to make online gambling safer for customers, the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) has announced a slew of new restrictions on online slots games. The sum of the measures is to slow down the pace of play and give the player more information so that they understand how much and how fast they are winning or losing.

“Today’s steps will help curb the intensity of online gambling, introducing greater protections that will reduce the risk of gambling related harm,” said Minister for Sports, Tourism and Heritage Nigel Huddleston.

The UKGC focused on slots as opposed to other forms of gambling like poker, sports betting, or other casino games primarily because of slots’ popularity and lack of barriers to entry (that is, you don’t have to learn how to play slots). According to the UKGC’s COVID-10 research data, the average slots player spends £67 per month, while average casino games spend is £36 a sports betting spend is £45.

Operators have until October 31, 2021 to implement a delay of at least 2.5 seconds between slot spins, eliminate auto-play, and get rid of “sounds or imagery which give the illusion of a win when the return is in fact equal to, or below, a stake.”

The first two measures are obvious. By banning auto-play and forcing a pause between spins, players will not be able to just continuously spin the reels. They will need to think about each mouse click and will have time to consider their actions.

The third one about “sounds or imagery” is interesting. I don’t play online slots, but I have tried free demos in the course of my work and sure enough, there are times where you bet, say, $10 and the music and flashing lights go off when you hit a winning combo, even if that “win” is just $6 for a loss of $4. It has always felt extremely dishonest for an online slots site to try to make it look like a loss was worth celebrating, so this is a good change by the Commission.

The above are more about the mechanics of the games. The UKGC has also mandated measures to help players better manage their gambling dollars. A player’s total wins or losses must be visible on screen while they are playing slots. With just “credits” or even a currency total displayed, it is easy for a player to lose track of much they are actually up or down. They would have to do the math. But with a running plus/minus total on the screen, the idea is that a player will call it quits sooner if they are losing.

Additionally, reverse withdrawals are now banned. Some online casinos have allowed customers to cancel a cashout once it is in process. No more. That of course does not mean that a player can’t make a new deposit, but like other measures, banning reverse withdrawals requires players to go through another decision point, to take another beat or two or three to think about what they want to do.
