Maine Casino Seeks OK For New Slot Machine
BANGOR, Maine (AP) Hollywood Slots wants to add a new type of slot machine, but Maine's Gambling Control Board has delayed making a decision on whether to allow it.
The Bangor casino is seeking approval for a so-called "hosted" slot machine, which mimics table card games. The machines are automated but instead of putting money into slots, customers sit around a table like they would playing blackjack or poker, and a casino employee puts the money in for them. The Gambling Control Board last week put off making a decision. Some board members said the machine technically meets Maine's definition of a slot machine, but others said it feels more like a card game, which is not legal. After debate, the board agreed to revisit the matter in December after gathering more information.- Loading Comments...
