Ensuring Integrity and Innovation in Tribal Gaming: A Look into the Latest Licensing and Renewals

In a recent Commission Meeting held on February 22, 2024, a series of important decisions regarding the licensure and renewal of key employees and third-party service providers in the tribal gaming sector were made. These decisions reflect the ongoing commitment of regulatory bodies to maintain the integrity of gaming operations while fostering an environment conducive to innovation and growth.
Third-Party Proposition Player Services Employee License Renewal
One of the notable agenda items was the consideration for the renewal of the Third-Party Proposition Player Services Employee Type License for Alyssa Ceballos of KB Ventures. Recommended for a licensure period from March 1, 2024, to February 28, 2026, this renewal underscores the essential role third-party proposition players serve in maintaining active and balanced gaming tables.
Gaming Resource Supplier and Financial Source Suitability
The meeting also addressed the renewal of Gaming Resource Supplier findings of suitability for several entities, highlighting the diverse ecosystem supporting tribal gaming operations. Among those considered were Dynasty Games Distributing led by Roger Lynn Fuller, and Halifax Security, Inc., along with its parent company Halifax Security Holdings, Inc., operating under the North American Video brand. The involvement of figures such as Jason David Oakley and Peter Michael Rode in these enterprises showcases the blend of financial stability and technological advancement driving the industry forward.
Initial and Renewal Tribal Key Employee Findings of Suitability
A significant portion of the meeting was dedicated to the initial and renewal findings of suitability for Tribal Key Employees across various casinos and resorts. This process ensures that individuals in critical positions uphold the highest standards of integrity and professionalism. From Alexis Jernigan at Agua Caliente Casino Cathedral City to Kenichi Meyer at Table Mountain Casino, the wide range of roles and responsibilities covered highlights the comprehensive approach to oversight and governance within the tribal gaming sector.
The approval of these licenses and renewals is not just a procedural step but a reaffirmation of the trust placed in these individuals and companies to contribute positively to the tribal gaming ecosystem. As the industry continues to evolve with advancements in technology and increased focus on responsible gambling practices, the role of regulatory oversight becomes even more crucial.
The decisions made in this Commission Meeting, while specific in nature, reflect broader trends in the gaming industry towards embracing innovation through technology, such as AI and digital automation, while ensuring the foundational values of fairness and integrity are upheld. As tribal gaming continues to be a pivotal part of the wider gaming and entertainment industry, the meticulous process of licensure and renewal will remain key to its sustained success and reputation.

Chicago City Council Members Pushing to Legalize Video Gambling

Chicago City Council members are reviving plans to legalize video gambling in the city, introducing two ordinances that could bring hundreds of terminals to O’Hare and Midway airports and allow machines citywide for the first time.
One ordinance, introduced by Alderman Gilbert Villegas (36th), targets the city’s airports, where he sees both political feasibility and high revenue potential.
“The General Assembly has provided this opportunity through the casino bill. Yet, we’re not taking advantage of capturing dollars from one of the busiest airports in the country,” Villegas said.
“People are there, in some cases, one or two hours before. If their flight is delayed or they’re making a connection and there is a delay, there’s an opportunity to capture an audience that may not even be going to the city.”
Villegas’ proposal includes a $10,000 license fee per location, plus $500 per terminal. A separate terminal license would cost $1000, with an additional $500 per unit. If 400 machines each generated $800 daily, Villegas estimates annual revenue could reach $116.8 million, with the city taking a share through licensing and taxes.
Alderman Anthony Beale (9th) is pushing for a broader citywide expansion. His ordinance would legalize video gambling throughout Chicago, including in neighborhood bars and restaurants.
“We need to do it citywide and at the airports. We need the revenue and this administration has not shown a willingness to find new revenue that’s not gonna hit the taxpayers in every household,” Beale said.
Beale’s ordinance proposes a $500 license fee per location and a $1000-per-terminal charge for both the site and the machine itself. He has criticized the administration for dismissing the potential benefits, arguing that the current tax formula could be renegotiated with state lawmakers.
“That’s because they haven’t shown the willingness to go down to Springfield and change the formula. I’m hoping that submitting these ordinances will finally convince them to send a team down there,” he said.

Prime Skill Games Inc. Official Response to AGCO Press Release

As CEO of Prime Skill Games Inc., I feel compelled to address recent comments made by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario regarding so-called unapproved gambling machines in convenience stores across the province.
Let me be perfectly clear
Our machines are not gambling devices. They are entirely skill-based, fully compliant with the law, and built on the fundamental idea that players are in control. The outcome of every session is determined solely by the player’s ability, not by random chance.
Prime Skill Games is proud to be the only true skill game operating in Ontario today.
We categorically reject any suggestion that our products fall under the definition of unregulated gambling. Such statements are inaccurate, misleading, and fail to recognize the critical distinction between games of skill and games of chance.
We stand firmly behind the legality of our machines and the integrity of our operations. We will demonstrate this through every available means, whether through legal documentation, expert analysis, or, if necessary, before the courts. We are prepared and unafraid to defend the truth.
To our players, partners, and business community, we want to reassure you that our mission has not changed. We are committed to offering a responsible, transparent, and innovative entertainment experience. We will not be intimidated by broad and baseless accusations, and we will continue to move forward with strength and clarity.
Sincerely
Matt ZamroĹşniak
