PROHIBITED ACTS

In order to find Defendant guilty of Prohibited Acts, you must find the State

proved following two (2) elements beyond a reasonable doubt:

(1) Defendant [cheated/attempted to cheat] to [collect/take]

[money/anything of value] for [Defendant/another person] [in/from] [a video

lottery/at a table game] in a video lottery facility including its [parking

areas/adjacent facilities]; and

(2) Defendant acted [intentionally/knowingly.]

“Intentionally” means it was Defendant’s conscious objective or purpose to

cheat or attempt to cheat.

“Knowingly” means Defendant was aware Defendant was cheating or

attempting to cheat.

"Cheat" means to alter the element of chance, method of selection, or

criteria which determines: (1) the result of the game; (2) the amount or frequency

of payment in a game, including intentionally taking advantage of a

malfunctioning machine; (3) the value of a wagering instrument; or (4) the value

of a wagering credit.

"Table game" shall mean any game played with cards, dice or any

mechanical, electromechanical or electronic device or machine (excluding video

lottery machines) for money, credit or any representative of value, including, but

not limited to, baccarat, blackjack, twenty-one, poker, craps, roulette, keno, bingo,

wheel of fortune or any variation of these games, whether or not similar in design

or operation.

"Video lottery machine" shall mean any machine in which bills, coins or

tokens are deposited in order to play in a game of chance in which the results,

including options to the player, are randomly and immediately determined by the

machine. A machine may use spinning reels or video displays or both, and may or

may not dispense coins or tokens directly to winning players. A machine shall be

considered a video lottery machine notwithstanding the use of an electronic credit

system making the deposit of bills, coins or tokens unnecessary.
