Luck Of The Irish: Will The Casinos Tranform From Gaelic Grey To Gaelic Green $$, William N. Thompson
UNLV Gaming Law Journal
As the first decade of the twenty-first century evolved, Ireland was one of only two countries in the European Union that did not have legal, regulated casinos. The Irish Gaming and Lotteries Act of 1956 does not prohibit games with equal chances. Moreover, games can be conducted lawfully, according to the Act, if promoters assess minor seat charges to players, and “the promoter derives no personal profit from the promotion of the game.” Additionally, Part III of the 1956 law indicates that amusement centers can have slot machines that award small prizes.

Sparks Nugget. State Tax Exemption Of Food Used By Casinos For Comped Meals, Steve Johnson
UNLV Gaming Law Journal
In their search for new sources of revenue, states have legalized and sought to tax many kinds of gaming.
