Golden Nugget is set to forfeit $4,232, covering instances of underage gambling, self-exclusion oversight, and inadequate ID checks. Bally’s will also relinquish $5,621 in earnings from users who had self-excluded in NJ. Meanwhile, Ocean Casino will be forfeiting $7,403 in earnings related to underage customers and other identification issues.
Other orders were linked to underage gambling and failures in identity verification checks. The casino received four forfeiture orders, with the largest amounting to $33,590 for permitting a self-excluded individual to participate.
Resorts Casino faced the most significant impact, having to surrender $51,643 in earnings. In October, these NJ casinos were found to have contravened state laws regarding the legal gambling age and self-exclusion regulations, leading to the forfeiture of a portion of their winnings. Ocean Casino Resort, Resorts Casino Hotel, Golden Nugget Atlantic City, Bally’s Atlantic City, Harrah’s Resorts Atlantic City, and Parx Casino at Freehold Raceway reportedly violated the rules. Six gambling establishments in New Jersey have been instructed to relinquish nearly $75,000 (£60,073/€68,984) in earnings from individuals below the legal gambling age and customers who had voluntarily excluded themselves from gambling activities.
