Some gambling operators are joining the new generation of casinos, which combine the traditional gaming experience with a more diverse kind of entertainment. In 2013, voters in New York approved an amendment to the state constitution which allowed the introduction of up to 7 Vegas-style casinos that would not be run by Indian tribes. As reported by Casino Games Pro, the gambling industry in the country is regulated at the state level and in New York, there are several legal gaming options – 20 tribal facilities, including 5 major Upstate casinos, state lottery, pari-mutuel betting (horse and harness racing), and charitable games, which are regulated, but allowed.
