Cardfather, who makes an occasional appearance in these parts and has
intimate familiarity with gaming in FL, wrote a couple of years ago
that HR Hollywood had exclusively Class II gaming.
However, perhaps your mother has the inside scoop re current changes.
But I'd be cognizant of the fact that this casino operates under
tribal gaming and isn't subject to any regulatory oversight, lending
less confidence re any gaming assumptions in my book.
To my knowledge, all Class II machines operate under a mechanism in
which any win is predetermined when you press "Deal", but before any
cards are selected for the Deal. Because for any resulting deal you
have control over the cards held and can "defeat" an intended winning
hand that yields the determined payout, it's necessary for a secondary
win option to be present (seen in various forms -- a genie that
revised your hold after an alternate losing hand is revealed, a "match
card bonus" that supplements any ending result, etc.) Further, it's
my understanding that Class II machines typically carry a "for
entertainment purposes only" disclaimer.
I might be willing to rely upon the presence or absence of a secondary
win option to differentiate between these two machine classes. But,
then again, it's more likely I wouldn't.
