Bill Summary
An Act to increase the dollar limit for playing video lottery.
AI Summary
This bill amends South Dakota's existing video lottery machine regulations by increasing the maximum dollar amount that can be played and the maximum payout on a single bet. Specifically, the bill changes the law to allow video lottery machines to accept up to four dollars per game (increased from the current two-dollar limit) and to award up to five thousand dollars in free games or credits per bet (up from the previous one-thousand-dollar limit). The bill also maintains the existing requirement that the payback value of one credit must be at least 80 percent of the credit's original value, simply replacing the word "shall" with "must" in the language. These changes effectively expand the potential stakes and winnings for players of video lottery machines in South Dakota, potentially making the games more attractive to participants while keeping the core payout structure intact.
