Can we do this with a real mechanical slot machine?
That is how some legal online gambling works in the USA. You are connecting to machines in a casino on a reservation, so the gambling is happening in the correct legal location, and you are accessing the game and winnings remotely.
Huh so does the same apply to those live-action online table games? Like poker is legal where they’re filming so it’s basically like the game is happening there despite the login location of players? Never thought about that but if so that sort of makes sense now why they’d go through the effort.
