AI Summary

This bill amends the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law to provide for the licensing and regulation of skill-based amusement games by the State Liquor Authority. The bill defines "skill-based amusement game" as a game played on a fixed, commercial electrical device where the player's strategy and skill, rather than chance, are the primary factors in determining the outcome, and where the player may be awarded a prize for a successful outcome. The bill imposes a 10% tax on the gross revenue earned from these games, with the tax revenue to be deposited into the State General Fund. The bill also sets forth various criteria and requirements for the operation of these skill-based amusement games.
