AI Summary

This bill amends Arizona law to allow for event wagering, which is accepting bets on sports events or other events, including over the internet and on mobile devices, and clarifies definitions related to this activity. Specifically, it modifies the definition of "other event" to include competitions of skill or events authorized by the department of gaming, but excludes online casino-style games like slot machines or blackjack, and it updates the definition of "event wagering" to explicitly include internet and mobile betting. The bill also makes technical changes to existing statutes concerning the state lottery, such as adjusting monetary amounts for specific funds and clarifying the conditions under which electronic keno and mobile draw games can be operated, ensuring they do not replicate casino-style games.
