Conduct of advance deposit wagering, card playing, and pari-mutuel betting provided; authorization of historical horse racing and other games prohibited; definitions provided; and clarifying and conforming changes made.

This bill defines and regulates advance deposit wagering, card playing, and pari-mutuel betting at licensed racetracks in Minnesota while explicitly prohibiting the authorization of historical horse racing and other games. It clarifies that historical horse racing refers to races that have already occurred with final results and bans its use alongside traditional betting systems or on slot machines. The legislation also restricts the state commission's authority to rulemaking, preventing it from expanding gambling options or approving historical horse racing through administrative actions. Additionally, the bill sets specific limits on the number of card tables and the maximum amount of individual wagers allowed at card clubs.
