Atlantic City casinos could soon offer skill-based gaming through new regulations issued by New Jersey’s Division of Gaming Enforcement (NJDGE).
The rules for the devices include provision over the proportion of bets collected and prohibit casinos from making the games harder or easier to win while a game is in progress, in accordance with the perceived skill of the player.
Monitoring programmes are to be introduced to protect against collusion or money laundering in multi-player peer-to-peer games.
The rules are very similar to those installed place in Nevada last year, with New Jersey stating that any device approved there could be allowed in Atlantic City as well.
David Rebuck, NJDGE’s director, said: “This is another important step towards implementing skill-based gaming within the Atlantic City gaming market.
“Although the Division has had the authority to authorise these games for a while and announced in October 2014 an initiative for manufacturers to bring their skill-based games to New Jersey, the industry requested specific regulations to steer their efforts to create innovative skill-based products.”
