Rivers Casino Portsmouth agreed to pay $275,000 in a settlement agreement with the Virginia Lottery for a trio of violations, including underage gambling, licensing requirements related to slot machines and unauthorized games in play.
According to the settlement agreement between the two parties, the alleged violations took place before and after the casino’s Jan. 23 grand opening. The violations, it said, came from the casino directly, and through its contractors and agents.
“Specifically, the Lottery identified alleged violations with respect to underage and voluntarily excluded persons, licensing requirements related to slot machines and unauthorized games in play,” and the lottery’s executive director, Kelly Gee, proposed a settlement amount.
