§ 13-401. Definitions

   (a) In general. -- In this subtitle the following words have the meanings indicated.

** REVISOR'S NOTE
 
   This subsection is new language derived without substantive change from former Art. 27, § 255(h)(1)(i).

** REVISOR'S NOTE
 
   The reference to this "subtitle" is substituted for the former reference to this "subsection", although this subtitle is derived, in part, from material outside former Art. 27, § 255(h). Because the one term "casino event" that is both derived from that former subsection and is defined in this section is used only in material derived from former Art. 27, § 255(h), no substantive change results.

(b) Casino event. --

   (1) "Casino event" means any event that involves a card game, dice game, or roulette game.

   (2) "Casino event" does not include a card game or dice game that is played for tokens for which no cash prize is offered or awarded.

** REVISOR'S NOTE
 
   This subsection is new language derived without substantive change from former Art. 27, § 255(h)(1)(iii).

(c) Gaming event. -- "Gaming event" means a carnival, bazaar, raffle, or other organized gaming event.

** REVISOR'S NOTE
 
   This subsection is new language added to avoid repetition of the phrase "carnival, bazaar, raffle, or other organized gaming event" and for consistency within this title.

HISTORY: An. Code 1957, art. 27, § 255(h)(1)(i), (iii); 2002, ch. 26, § 2.
