? MAIN NEWS STORY:
————————————–
California tribal casino operators are vowing to continue their legal fighting against the state for permitting private cardrooms to offer so-called ‘house-banked’ games.
This week, the US District Court for the Eastern District of California dismissed a lawsuit filed by three of the state’s gaming tribes – the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation, the Viejas Band of Kumeyaay Indians and the Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation – who accused the state regime of violating the tribes’ gaming compacts.
Specifically, the tribes argued that the state violated exclusivity provisions of the compacts by allowing commercial cardrooms to offer house-banked games, inward which players play against the house (blackjack) rather than against each other (poker).
The cardrooms came up with a variation known as ‘player-banked’ games, inward which the ‘house’ role is assigned to each player at the table on a rotating basis. inward practice, the house role is performed by a ‘third-party proposition player,’ who is usually employed by a private company specifically for that purpose, and the rotation rule is skirted by this employee offering the role to each player inward turn, who routinely decline the offer, and on goes the game.
