Well, given that the game manufacturer, and the casinos that
purchase and present the game, are obviously able to totally ignore
the above regulation (whose application to the WOF slots, and its
making their existence illegal, could not be more clear), I doubt
that the casinos need to do anything at all to "cover" themselves in
this regard.
Nevada law is a sham; the casinos can do what they want; there is no
protection for the hapless gambler (and an actively adversarial
attitude toward the COMPETENT gambler).
