  • Gaming Statutes
    All Gambling is Illegal Unless Specifically Excluded from Illegality. Gambling is defined in Arizona Revised Statutes (“A.R.S.”) § 13-3301(4) to require risking something of value for an opportunity to win a benefit, which is awarded by chance. As provided by A.R.S. § 13-3302, all gambling is illegal in Arizona unless a statute excludes it as legal. Charitable organizations may qualify for an exclusion from illegal gambling by being licensed under A.R.S. § 5-504(I) for Arizona Lottery pull tab games, A.R.S. § 5-512 for all products of the Arizona Lottery, or by qualifying as a non profit for the conduct of raffles under A.R.S. § 13-3302(B). The statutes limit unlicensed charitable organizations to conducting raffles. All other forms of gambling are prohibited. Arizona statutes provide no definition of raffle, and no Arizona court has defined raffle. A raffle machine is required to follow the usual and ordinary definition of a raffle with the only difference being that it is played on a machine to qualify as a raffle machine. A second chance raffle drawing conducted after the conduct of Keno on a machine does not change the character of the Keno to a raffle. Each component must be authorized by law or it is illegal gambling. Arizona Liquor Law - A.R.S. §4-244. Unlawful acts It is unlawful: 26. For a licensee or employee to knowingly permit unlawful gambling on the premises. Arizona liquor law does not allow gambling at liquor-licensed businesses when the customer is required to pay for a chance to win something of value.

  • D. DETECTING FRAUD in CHARITY GAMING by James V
    D. DETECTING FRAUD IN CHARITY GAMING by James V. Competti and Conrad Rosenberg Contrary to popular belief, bingo cannot be categorized as a low-stakes game played by middle-aged and elderly women. It is, rather, a billion-dollar industry whose popularity permeates all aspects of American society, and the abuses of which often go undetected or unremedied. Despite bingo’s popularity as a charity fundraiser and its reputa­ tion as a harmless pastime, it has been the object of abuse by a number of sources: Illegal parlors resort to tricks to circumvent the law or openly defy it. Racketeers are thought to control bingo games- legal and illegal- in a number of urban areas. Skimming and other scams are practiced by both organized groups and shady independent operators. Some bingo players have devised elaborate cheating schemes. Gambling in America. Final Report of the Commission on the Review of the National Policy Toward Gambling. Washington: 1976; at pages 160 and 164. Although the report was written over 20 years ago, its observations and conclusions are still essentially valid, if not possibly even a bit understated in light of the recent growth of the gambling business in the United States. 1. Introduction The subject of exempt organizations conducting gaming activities, ostensib­ ly to raise funds for charitable uses, has been the focus of a significant amount of interest. The April 1992 Pennsylvania Crime Commission Report entitled, Racketeering and Organized Crime in the Bingo Industry, at page iv, explains why, in its view, bingo may attract a criminal element: Promoters have infiltrated this industry and have very little to fear from law enforcement because of their low profile and be­ cause of the benign way in which society views Bingo.

  • Testimony of Todd Reveron Veterans of Foreign Wars & VFW Ohio
    Testimony of Todd Reveron Veterans of Foreign Wars & VFW Ohio Charities To the Ohio Senate Select Committee on Gaming Chairman Schuring, Vice Chairman Manning, Ranking Member Thomas and members of the committee: My Name is Todd Reveron and I am the Executive Director of the VFW Ohio Charities. I am also State President of the VFW Ohio Riders and Sr. Vice Commander of VFW Post 3320 in Marysville, OH, on behalf of the Veterans of Foreign Wars Dept. of Ohio, I would like thank you for the opportunity to provide testimony in support of Electronic Instant Bingo. I want to take a moment to address longevity. We have heard some testify that they have been in the gaming business for decades. The Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States has been in the business of taking care of Veterans, their families and their communities for over a century. Our organization was founded in September 1899 by thirteen members of the Cuban Campaign of the Spanish American War who first met in a Tailor shop in Columbus Ohio. What we do, our mission, has not changed for over 121 years. How we do it will always change in order to keep up with the times, to include embracing technology. The intent of electronic instant bingo legislation, drafted in collaboration with the Ohio Attorney General’s office, is to codify into law the use of electronic as well as paper instant bingo. We have heard our opponents, casinos and racinos, testify that our modernization from instant pull tab tickets to electronic instant bingo, is a transformation of gaming in Ohio.
