In the introductory language of paragraph (1) of this subsection, the term
"[g]aming device" is substituted for the former term "gaming table" in light
of former Art. 27, § 244, which deemed a gaming table to be "[a]ll games,
devices and contrivances at which money or any other thing shall be bet or
wagered ...".
In paragraph (1)(i) and (ii) of this subsection, the reference to
"consideration of value" is added for consistency with § 12-102 of this
subtitle.
In paragraph (1)(i) of this subsection, the word "table" is substituted for
the former specific references to a "faro table, E. O. table, equality, or any
other kind of gaming table" for brevity and in light of the comprehensive
reference to any table "at which a game of chance is played".
In paragraph (1)(ii) of this subsection, the former reference to
"contrivances" is deleted in light of the references to a "game" and a
"device".
Also in paragraph (1)(ii) of this subsection, the word "gambled" is added for
consistency with § 12-102 of this subtitle.
Also in paragraph (1)(ii) of this subsection, the former reference to a
gaming table "within the meaning of §§ 237, 238, 239, 241 and 242" is
deleted in light of subsection (a) of this section.
Also in paragraph (1)(ii) of this subsection, the former specific reference to
a "paddle wheel, wheel of fortune, chance book, [or] bingo" is deleted as
included in the comprehensive reference to a "game or device at which
money or any other thing or consideration of value is bet, wagered, or
gambled".
(E) GAMING EVENT.
"GAMING EVENT" MEANS:
(1) A BINGO GAME;
(2) A CARNIVAL;
(3) A BAZAAR;
(4) A RAFFLE;
(5) A BENEFIT PERFORMANCE; OR
(6) ANY OTHER EVENT AT WHICH A GAMING DEVICE IS OPERATED.

substantive change from former Art. 27, § 261E(a)(4).
