Casino Control Commission keeps gambler on self-ban list

The Press of Atlantic City reported the case of a gambler who dropped a bundle at a craps table. Being angry on himself, he went to the office of the Casino Control Commission on the same day. He submitted for a program which forbids him to join Atlantic City's gaming halls for lifetime.

Without knowing it, the gambler wasn't banned in Atlantic city only. He also had interdiction for affiliated casinos from Las Vegas and other gambling environments.

However, the lifetime ban remains. For instance, his request of being removed from the self-ban list in New Jersey was declined by a severe Casino Control Commission. His lawyer argued that his civil rights may have been infringed.

Gamblers should know that by this program they are free to ban themselves from casinos for a certain number of years or for lifetime.
