Short Summary
The provided legal document content governs the regulation and oversight of Limited Card Games, Slot Machines, Craps, Roulette, Keno, and Wagering on Sporting Events in South Dakota. It authorizes and allows these activities to be operated within the city limits of Deadwood, subject to the provisions outlined in the document. The document prohibits licensees from accepting bets from certain individuals, including athletes, persons with authority over the outcome of events, employees of sports wagering services providers, agents or proxies for bettors, and persons using false identification. Violation of this provision is considered a Class 6 felony for both the person placing the bet and the licensee, and may result in disciplinary action against the license of any individual involved and the operator of the facility where the bet was accepted. The document also specifies that licensees cannot accept bets on high school or minor league sporting events, individual athletes in collegiate sporting events, or any game involving a South Dakota university or college team or athlete. Licensees are required to promptly report any criminal or disciplinary proceedings against them or their employees related to sports wagering to the commission. They are also obligated to cooperate with investigations conducted by sports governing bodies and share information approved by the commission, as long as it does not interfere with ongoing criminal investigations. Sports wagering can only be conducted on the premises of a licensed gaming establishment in Deadwood, and operators or route operators must install and maintain approved equipment to ensure all bets are placed on-site. Advance deposit sports wagering accounts must be opened in person at the licensed gaming establishment, and the operator or route operator must retain the application and related documents as records. Operators or route operators are required to maintain a separate account at a financial institution for patron deposits and payments, which is subject to review and audit by the commission. Receipts from sports wagering must be separately maintained and accounted for. The document applies to various entities involved in gaming activities in South Dakota, including retailers, licensees, operators, manufacturers, distributors, key employees, support licensees, gaming property owners, and sports wagering services providers.
