Gambling advancement in South Carolina
 June 3, 2009, 7:55 am (2 years ago)Expectations for the reconstruction of 200-year-old out of date gambling regulation in South Carolina have lost its color this week as the news that state politicians did not succeed to address the matter previous to the conclusion of the legislative session in the state and the bills are going to presently be put on hold until 2010.
Senate Bills 535 and 628 which would authorize social games of poker, “…won’t be readdressed until next legislative session, planned to begin in January,” as said by the Augusta Chronicle. That means no less than 7 additional months previous to any further action is going to be conducted.
Senators McConnell, Mulvaney, Ford, Land, Knotts, and Davis introduced Senate Bill 535, which authorizes “private” games where the House does not take a rake. At the same time, the Poker Players Alliance (PPA) effectively added a “predominance test” section to both bills in an effort to make South Carolina gambling regulations clear.
