Interactive gaming.
HB 162 would authorize and regulate online casino-style games (like poker or blackjack) in Wyoming, allowing licensed operators to offer these games via mobile apps or websites. It requires operators to verify players are physically in Wyoming (or a permitted state) using geolocation technology and sets rules for revenue collection, distribution, and security. The bill explicitly excludes tribal gaming on reservations, fantasy sports, and lotteries from its regulations. The Wyoming Gaming Commission would enforce these rules and impose criminal penalties for violations. (Note: This bill died in committee in March 2025 and is not law.)
