Two casinos fined

Friday, July 23, 2004 | 10:39 a.m.

ATLANTIC CITY -- Two casinos have been fined $10,000 apiece for allowing a gambler who had voluntarily banned himself from casinos to obtain cash and play.

Resorts Atlantic City casino hotel and Trump Plaza Hotel & Casino both allowed the same gambler to play, in violation of the New Jersey Casino Control Commission's self-exclusion program.

They were cited after the gambler, identified by authorities only as "P.D." complained to the state Division of Gaming Enforcement that he had been allowed to gamble.

The commission, which imposed the fines Wednesday, established the self-exclusion program in 2001 to help compulsive gamblers stay out of casinos.

The list has 239 names.
