Where you working in America? My understanding was that in the US casino games were required to be non-skill based. Is that not the case? Or maybe it differs

Where you working in America?
My understanding was that in the US casino games were required to be non-skill based. Is that not the case? Or maybe it differs by state jurisdiction?
- tim58 7y agoFederally the only laws for US gambling are about online/interstate gambling. The rest of the laws are state/local laws which vary greatly.
- GuB-42 7y agoThere is a bit of skill involved in Blackjack, and a lot in of it in Poker. Some slot machines also allow you to manually stop the reels in a way that can influence the outcome, though I don't think they are common in US casinos. The laws are usually the opposite: games of chance are more tightly regulated than games of skill.
- seanalltogether 7y agoIt's the other way around, if a game can be shown to be skills based, they don't fall under gambling regulations. This is why a lot of gambling type games that issue tickets and target kids are legal.
