Enforcement & compliance

The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board approved fines totalling $180,000 against Greenwood Gaming and Entertainment, Wind Creek Bethlehem and YFS Sub, according to the regulator. Greenwood received two $40,000 fines over underage access to gaming and unlicensed staff accessing player data; Wind Creek was fined $50,000 over KYC failures linked to $92,000 in fraudulent withdrawals. YFS Sub received a $50,000 fine over an unapproved change of control, and the board added eight people to involuntary exclusion lists.

The actions set out enforcement risks involving underage access, player-data controls, KYC and licence-change approvals.
