Table game supplier MAO Gaming is suing Penn Entertainment’s Ameristar Casino in Colorado over trademark infringement.

MAO claims Ameristar has been using blackjack tables that contain MAO’s marks unlawfully. This lawsuit says it’s been happening for two years.

Colorado boasts more than 40 casinos. All of them are in the three mountain towns of Black Hawk, Cripple Creek and Central City. Online casinos in Colorado are illegal, but that could change in the near future.

The trademark that Ameristar allegedly infringed upon is the Streak side bet on MAO Gaming-approved blackjack tables. The Streak side bet is a wager on how many consecutive times a player will be dealt blackjack.
