Missouri Lawmakers Moving to Ban “Pre-Reveal” Machines
Missouri lawmakers want to ban gambling machines that tell you the outcome of the next spin. Pre-reveal machines are similar to slot machines, but the player is not told the result of each spin and has to wait for the results.
Missouri lawmakers are considering a ban on pre-reveal machines. Florida court ruled that pre vale machines are illegal because they are played outside casinos. Two machine makers have been found guilty of illegal gambling. Torch Electronics, which is based in Missouri, is fighting tooth and nail to convince people that their games are perfectly legal. Lobbyist Tom Robbins said, “Our games is not gambling devices because the are not games of chance.”
