Nevada changes gaming-salon rules and raises penalties for illegal gaming
Nevada enacted changes to gaming-salon rules under Senate Bill 459, allowing casinos to set Gaming Control Board-approved slot minimums instead of the former $500 threshold and removing the requirement for table games, according to the report. Senate Bill 256, due to take effect on 1 October, requires illegal gaming profits to be forfeited and increases penalties; Assembly Bill 58 allows the Gaming Control Board chair to approve games and devices. The report also says a workshop on salon admission thresholds is expected.
Operators face revised salon rules, while unlicensed gaming businesses face profit forfeiture and increased penalties.
