Introduction to Delaware Slot Machine Casino Gambling in 2019

Delaware slot machine casino gambling consists of three casinos offering video lottery terminal (VLT) style slot machines controlled by Delaware Lottery Games. Besides video slots, these VLT-style machines offer video poker, video keno, and video blackjack.

Further, Delaware has established both minimum and maximum theoretical payout returns. Moreover, return statistics are publicly available online from the state.

Relevant Legal Statutes on Gambling in Delaware*

The minimum legal gambling age in Delaware depends upon the gambling activity:

Land-Based Casinos: 21
Poker Rooms: 21/18
Bingo: 18
Lottery: 18
Pari-Mutuel Wagering: 18

In part, Delaware gaming regulations define a slot machine as a gambling device that must “eject something of value.” Therefore, Delaware’s VLT gaming machines do not use a ticket-in, ticket-out paper vouchering system. Instead, they accept and payout in cash or tokens.

At Delaware’s casinos, the minimum bet is 1-penny. The maximum bet is $2,500.

Notably, Delaware has a policy of winner privacy. Slot machines fall under this privacy stipulation, so casinos cannot release the names of winners for promotional purposes unless the winner specifies otherwise.

*The purpose of this section is to inform the public of state gambling laws and how the laws might apply to various forms of gaming. It is not legal advice.

In Delaware, it is legal to own a 25 years old or older slot machine privately.

Gaming Control Board in Delaware

The Delaware gaming commission is Delaware Lottery Games. This state agency is responsible for providing gaming regulations for VLT-style gaming machines and table games.

Online gaming for real-money gambling, including slots as well as poker and other casino games, exists in Delaware, although an online player must be at least 21 and physically located within the state’s borders. See each casino website for links to this gambling option offered by Delaware.

Delaware is one of the original states where sports betting was available in 2009. Sports betting is for multiple games at professional and college sporting events.

Further, to help Delaware compete with casinos in neighboring states, all Delaware casinos offer table games of craps, blackjack, and roulette. The availability of other table games depends upon each casino.

Payout Returns in Delaware

The minimum and maximum payout returns for Delaware’s slot machines is 87% and 95%. These theoretical limits are an annual average for each machine. See Delaware Code 20, Chapter 4805, Section a15.

However, games may have a payout return higher than 95% with approval from the Director of Delaware Lottery Games. I have not found how often, and for which machines, the Director has given this approval.

What’s known from these gaming regulations is that Delaware casinos do not directly control the odds of winning on their VLT-style slot machines. Delaware Lottery Games controls the odds of winning remotely offsite from Delaware casinos.

Monthly return statistics are online at Video Lottery Monthly Proceeds and Distributions at Delaware Lottery Games.

To calculate a player’s win percent, divide “Amount Won” by “Amount Played” for a month, then multiply by 100%. Using the most recent month’s statistics at the time of this writing, September 2019, the player win% at each casino and overall is:

Delaware Park: An Amount Played of $162.4M divided by an Amount Won of $175.9M is, after multiplying by 100%, a player Win% of 92.3%.
Dover Downs: $163.4M divided by $176.4M is 92.6%.
Harrington Raceway: $96.7M divided by $105.7M is 91.7%.
The state average for September 2019 was 92.3%.
