Ohio Attorney General to Look into Video Game Gambling

Luck and skill.

That is the difference between legal and illegal when it comes to gambling in video games in Ohio.

Apparently there have been a number of questionable video games at bars across the state, so much so that Attorney General Marc Dann has had enough requests to get him going on the matter.

“This explosion has occurred because there is no clear standard for determining whether a machine is a game of skill that belongs in the arcade at Cedar Point or at Chuck E. Cheese or an illegal game of chance that belongs in Las Vegas or a state that has legalized gambling,” Dann said to whiotv.com.

Looks like a lot of bars could be in trouble if they’ve got the drunks playing roulette on screen.
