The Arjel, the regulatory authority of the games, has just seen its powers be extended within the framework of a legislative reform. Authority, which hit it until then on horse racing, sports betting and Online poker has just been entrusted with the regulation of "all illegal online money and coincidence", including online casinos and real silver games. Thus the State can now control the entire sector and not only the companies subject to approval as it was so far.
This extension of power was made necessary according to the Arjel in the face of the resurgence on the Internet in 2012 of games which are similar to lotteries and which promise important gains. Until then the owners of this type of lotteries escaped the regulations of the games because they proposed the reimbursement of the starting bet, on request, transforming the latter legally into "advance".
The Arjel is interested in lotteries on the Internet
A new perimeter has just been opened by the Arjel which will now have to rule on these new game sites and determine when an address game for example becomes "paid". Vast subject since the vague reign
E in this sector and that promoters of this type of game know how to surf the legislation. It is in any case a big step made in the direction of more regulation in this sector which will allow it to clarify after years of disorganized expansion.
One more step taken in the direction of consumer-player protection and in the obligation for the sector to play it more "fair play". It's already not bad and no one will complain, neither the players, nor the operators on this market who are already playing in a play with the authorities.
Internet gaming prohibitions
The National Assembly is in full discussion of a consumer bill which includes a component on games. This law known as arjel (online game regulatory authority) will extend the list of people prohibited from playing to Online casinos.
This black list will be held by the services of the Ministry of the Interior. As a reminder, a person can be registered if he risks disturbing order or tranquility in casinos, or because he is likely to receive such a condemnation (in the case of a current trial for example ) or finally because she voluntarily asked to appear to be prevented from going to the casino. This list is regularly communicated to operators of gambling. For their sides these operators have obligation to close the account of a person who would come to appear on the list.
All this had entered the customs, except for two state monopolies which do not depend on the Arjel: the PMU and the American games (FDJ)! Thus the extras on the black list will be able to continue to play with these two national operators! A shame when the public authorities tell us about prevention in the face of game addiction. This problem has therefore been corrected and the FDJ now has an obligation to consult this file and take the necessary measures in front of the measures, namely the prohibition for them to play.
We would indeed have seen in the middle of a dismal eye the State to continue to grant themselves from such a go, against all its "communication" for years to prevent addiction to games, while The entire casino sector is hardly affected by competition from the Internet.
Best Casinos - September 2024
New legislation for American casinos
On January 1, 2014 The legislation concerning American casinos changes, it evolves towards a little more freedom for the casinos which experienced during this last year a drop of approximately 4.3% for the financial year between November 1, 2012 - October 30 2013. It is certainly this drop in activity that has allowed American casinotiers to be able to expand their fields of decisions and allow the profession to attack this new year with more flexible rules in order to be able to go up these figures since already several years.
Changes for 197 casinos in USA
This starts with the modification of closing hours, the operation of new casino games. So from today casinos will be able to decide to close the slot room before that of table games (poker, blackjack, roulette ...) and vice versa.
The new games are the battle (which had been tested in certain casinos in 2013), the "Lucky Ladies" a kind of blackjack allowing to place an additional bet to perhaps win a bonus, the wheel of luck (of the famous game television), the sic bo (Chinese games par excellence), as well as the Bad Beat bonus in poker (this corresponds to giving a bonus for a player who would have lost a hand when he had a strong hand, the best bad beat won the bonus). Finally electronic games appear with blackjack and roulette (a bit like on online casinos).
The ball is now in the American casinotic camp after several years of decline, 2014 may be the back of American casinos.
