PART III. GAMING.
13-2619. DEFINITIONS.
(A) IN GENERAL.
IN THIS PART THE FOLLOWING WORDS HAVE THE MEANINGS INDICATED.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection is new language derived without
substantive change from former Art. 27, § 251B(a)(1)(i).
(B) GAMING DEVICE.
(1) "GAMING DEVICE" MEANS A PADDLE WHEEL, WHEEL OF FORTUNE,
CHANCE BOOK, RAFFLE, OR ANY OTHER MECHANISM FOR PLAYING A GAME OF
CHANCE.
(2) "GAMING DEVICE" DOES NOT INCLUDE BINGO.
REVISOR'S NOTE: Paragraph (1) of this subsection is new language derived
without substantive change from the introductory language of former Art.
27, § 251B(a)(2), as it described gaming devices. Paragraph (1) is revised as
a definition to provide an express definition of "gaming device".
Paragraph (2) of this subsection is new language added to clarify that
bingo is not a "gaming device" regulated under this part. As to the
provisions of law governing bingo in Worcester County, see Part II of this
subtitle.
In paragraph (1) of this subsection, the phrase "any other mechanism for
playing a game of chance" is substituted for the former phrase "by any
other gaming device" for clarity.
(C) MULTIPLE GAMING DEVICE PERMIT.
"MULTIPLE GAMING DEVICE PERMIT" MEANS A PERMIT THAT ALLOWS THE USE
OF TWO OR MORE GAMING DEVICES.
REVISOR'S NOTE: This subsection is new language derived without
substantive change from former Art. 27, § 251B(a)(1)(ii).
The reference to allowing "the use of" two or more gaming devices is added
for clarity and accuracy.
The reference to "gaming devices" is substituted for the former reference to
"devices specified in paragraph (2) of this subsection" for brevity.
