This interesting fact is just one of many about the Southern state that allows commercial and tribal gaming. However, they don\u2019t allow online gambling and that\u2019s just criminal. So, if you want to find out what\u2019s allowed in the state, then this guide is for you.<\/p>\n<p>In the state of North Carolina, there are some pretty standard laws. They only have three casinos and no racecourses. In fact, they\u2019re more focused on bingo, which is fine; just boring.<\/p>\n<p>Thus, gambling in the state is pretty reserved. At least they have a poker room and a state lottery for jackpot hopefuls.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Most-Popular-North-Carolina-Casinos\"><\/span>Most Popular North Carolina

Daily fantasy sports (DFS) operators are allowed to do so, technically. They claim to be skill-based and therefore aren\u2019t offering gambling. Casino operators can\u2019t be licensed in the state, nor can any sportsbooks that take bets. Since state laws are pretty old and unlikely to change in the near future.<\/p>\n<p>However, they do have some fairly recent amendments. In the 1990s, video poker snuck through some grey areas. Although it was subsequently banned when the lottery started in 2005. Having possession of any video poker machine is a misdemeanor. More so, repeat offenders are considered to be committing a felony. Even sweepstakes machines couldn\u2019t escape the noose because they mimic slots.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the state lottery can only sell scratch cards and lottery tickets at land-based retailers. Purchasing these over the Internet is strictly forbidden. Charities offering bingo can only do so twice a week and prizes can\u2019t exceed $500.<\/p>\n<p>Conversely, raffles can only operate twice a year with a maximum cash prize of $10,000. Non-cash prizes can go up to US$50,000. Offering small stakes bingo under US$10 is legal for any operator because it\u2019s considered a social game.<\/p>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5397 size-full\" title=\"North Carolina Casinos\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rivernilecasino.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/north-carolina-casinos.png\" alt=\"North Carolina Casinos\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rivernilecasino.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/north-carolina-casinos.png 500w, https:\/\/www.rivernilecasino.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/north-carolina-casinos-300x169.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Top-Casinos-in-North-Carolina\"><\/span>Top Casinos in North Carolina<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>At casinos within North Carolina, players can enjoy the usual assortment of slot machines and table games.

Electronic games like slots are allowed at casinos run by the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians.<\/p>\n<p>Games of chance can only be offered on tribal lands. Other gambling venues can be used for charity casino events and lotteries.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gambling-Casinos-in-North-Carolina\"><\/span>Gambling Casinos in North Carolina<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The main Cherokee casino resort in North Carolina is Harrah\u2019s Cherokee. In fact, they boast a 150,000 square foot casino space with 1,100 hotel rooms.<\/p>\n<p>Under current laws, they can offer a full suite of games on the money property. Playing at or betting at the casino is perfectly fine. However, general statutes state that only players 21 years or older can gamble at casinos.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Harrah\u2019s Cherokee, the tribe operates Harrah\u2019s Cherokee Valley and Harrah\u2019s Thunder Valley. These resorts are smaller, so they operate on a smaller scale. They also have a high-stakes bingo hall on the reservation.<\/p>\n<table width=\"100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"35%\"><strong>Casino<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\"><strong>Size<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"15%\"><strong>Address<\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"32%\"><strong>Website<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"35%\">Harrah\u2019s Cherokee Casino Resort \u2013 Cherokee<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">3,500 Slot Machines<\/td>\n<td width=\"15%\">777 Casino Dr.<\/td>\n<td width=\"32%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caesars.com\/harrahs-cherokee\">www.caesars.com<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"35%\">Harrah\u2019s Cherokee Valley River Hotel &amp; Casino \u2013 Murphy<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">1,000 Slot Machines<\/td>\n<td width=\"15%\">777 Casino Pkwy<\/td>\n<td width=\"32%\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caesars.com\/harrahs-cherokee-valley-river\">www.caesars.com<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"35%\">Cherokee Tribal Bingo \u2013 Cherokee<\/td>\n<td width=\"17%\">Only Bingo<\/td>\n<td width=\"15%\">91 Bingo Loop Rd.<\/td>\n<td width=\"32%\">www.cherokeetribalbingo.net<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5400 size-full\" title=\"North Carolina Gambling\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rivernilecasino.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/north-carolina-gambling.png\" alt=\"North Carolina Gambling\" width=\"500\" height=\"274\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rivernilecasino.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/north-carolina-gambling.png 500w, https:\/\/www.rivernilecasino.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/north-carolina-gambling-300x164.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gambling-History\"><\/span>Gambling History<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>All types of gambling were illegal in North Carolina until 1945 when it legalized bingo and raffles for charities. In 1994, the Cherokee tribe negotiated a gaming pact with the state.<\/p>\n<p>Then, in 1997, the Harrah\u2019s Cherokee held a grand opening. All slots required skill, as well as video poker and electronic table games.<\/p>\n<p>Another gaming compact in 2013 allowed the tribe to offer live table games. They were not allowed to sell alcohol until 2016.
