BASIS AND PURPOSE FOR RULE 11
The purpose of Rule 11 is to establish procedures for the distribution of chips to poker tables, the removal of chips and coins from poker tables, and to establish drop and count procedures related to poker gaming in compliance with section 44-30-302(1) (q). The statutory basis for Rule 11 is found in sections 44-30-201, C.R.S., 44-30-203, C.R.S., and 44-30-302, C.R.S.
30-1101Drop and count procedures.(1) The procedure for the collection of poker drop boxes and jackpot award drop boxes, and the count of their contents, must comply with the procedures set forth in Regulations 30-902 and 30-903 and in the internal control minimum procedures established by the Division.(2) At the end of a shift for all house banked poker variation games or at the end of each gaming day for all player banked poker variation games, all locked single-shift poker drop boxes and jackpot award drop boxes must be removed from the poker tables, unless otherwise approved by the Division of Gaming, by the drop team members who must transport them directly to the count room or other secure area for counting. If one table is to be used on a single shift for two or more dissimilar poker variation games which offer jackpot awards, the jackpot award drop box must be removed, secured, and replaced between game changes. If not counted immediately, the drop boxes must be locked securely until the count takes place.(3) At the end of a shift, the corresponding section of all multiple-shift drop boxes must be locked before the appropriate section for the new shift is enabled. At the end of each gaming day, all locked multiple-shift drop boxes must be removed from the poker tables, unless otherwise approved by the Division of Gaming, by the drop team members who must transport them directly to the count room or other secure area for counting. If not counted immediately, the drop boxes must be locked securely until the count takes place.
