Bill Overview

Analyzed Economic Effects

2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.

Bingo prize cap rises to $6,000

Beginning July 1, 2025, the prize cap per bingo game date rises from $4,000 to $6,000. Up to $500 of the $6,000 may come from the commercial hall. This lets operators offer larger total payouts each event.

New rules for carry-over bingo

Beginning July 1, 2025, a carry-over coverall prize is won only if someone gets coverall in 49 balls or fewer. If no one wins in 49 balls, leftover money rolls to future dates. Operators may pay preset prizes for approved patterns during the carry-over game from the carry-over pot. They may also offer a second-chance coverall after the first one, with its prize paid from the carry-over pot.
