Declaratory Ruling: The Commission on Gaming does declare and determine that Monopoly Black Jack meets the statutory definition of "black jack" as defined in SDCL 42-7B-4(3). The Commission does further declare and determine that Monopoly Black Jack does not meet the statutory definition of a "slot machine" as defined in SDCL 42-7B-4(21). The Commission does further declare and determine that the Monopoly Black Jack game constitutes one "gaming device" as defined by SDCL 42-7B-4(6A) for purposes of compliance with SDCL 42-7B-16 and 42-7B-23. The Commission does further declare and determine that as Monopoly Black Jack is one "gaming device" the initial wager on standard black jack and the side bet on the Monopoly bonus game together cannot exceed more than $100 and that petitioner will be entitled to offer the game of Monopoly Black Jack in Deadwood after the proper promulgation of rules authorizing Monopoly Black Jack as a variation of the game of black jack.
