Permits For Opening up of Video Poker for Catawbas

According to a judgment on Tuesday, the Catawba Indian Nation can open a video poker operation . Catawba leaders however, will give up this right, if the state legislators permit the tribe to start a high-stakes electronic bingo operation in Orangeburg County. Heraldonline.com reports:

If legislators don’t agree, the tribe will exercise its right to bring video poker to the York County reservation, Bender said. But nothing will happen before the General Assembly reconvenes, Jan. 10, he said.
