TYPES OF CASINOS IN SOUTH DAKOTA
There are several types of casinos in South Dakota. First, bars and taverns are allowed to have up to 10 video lottery terminals (VLT’s) that offer the following games: poker, keno, blackjack and bingo. These machines are the same as regular video gaming devices but are called lottery terminals because they are regulated by the state’s lottery commission which receives a share of each machine’s revenue. The machines accept cash but don’t pay out in cash; instead, they print out a receipt which must be taken to a cashier. The maximum bet is $2 and the maximum payout allowed is $1,000.
Slot machines, as well as blackjack, roulette, craps and poker are only permitted at Indian casinos in South Dakota and in Deadwood.
