Welcome to the Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission's website.

The KRGC’s primary mission is to ensure that gambling at facilities with state owned casino games and pari-mutuel racetrack gambling is conducted with integrity. As a regulatory agency, our chief mission is to seek compliance. As a criminal justice agency, our charge is to enforce the law. We take these responsibilities seriously, and we require our licensees do as well.
At the present time, all pari-mutuel licenses for horse and dog racing in Kansas have lapsed and been revoked. No pari-mutuel racing has been conducted in Kansas since August 2008. The KRGC is currently responsible for the regulation of the Boot Hill Casino and Resort in Dodge City, the Kansas Star Casino in Mulvane, the Hollywood Casino at Kansas Speedway in Kansas City and the Kansas Crossing Casino and Hotel in Pittsburg.
We have designed this website to provide you with access to frequently sought information.

Introduction to Kansas Slot Machine Casino Gambling in 2020

Kansas slot machine casino gambling consists of four state-run, commercial casinos and five tribal casinos.

A minimum theoretical payout limit exists for the state-run casinos in Kansas as well as at four out of five tribal casinos. No actual return statistics are publicly available.

This post continues my weekly State-By-State Slot Machine Casino Gambling Series, an online resource dedicated to guiding slot machine casino gambler to success. Now in its third year, each weekly post reviews slots gambling in a single U.S. state, territory, or federal district.

Relevant Legal Statutes on Gambling in Kansas*

The minimum legal gambling age in Kansas depends upon the gambling activity:

Land-Based Casinos: 21
Poker Rooms: 21
Bingo: 18
Lottery: 18
Pari-Mutuel Wagering: 18

The Kansas legislature approved charitable and social gaming in 1974, followed in 1978 by both pari-mutuel racetracks and a state lottery. All state licenses for pari-mutuel facilities have ended. None have been open since 2008.

In 1995, negotiations led to a state-tribal compact for the establishment of four American Indian tribal casinos. This quickly led to the state granting licensing for four non-tribal casinos.

In 2008, the Wyandotte Nation, a federally-recognized tribe in Oklahoma, opened a tribal casino in downtown Kansas City. This opening occurred after more than a decade of litigation.

*The purpose of this section is to inform the public of state gambling laws and how the laws might apply to various forms of gaming. It is not legal advice.

Slot Machine Private Ownership in Kansas

In Kansas, it is legal to own a slot machine privately if manufactured before 1950.

Gaming Control Board in Kansas

The Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission (KRGC) regulates commercial gaming in Kansas. The primary responsibilities of the KRGC centers around the four state-run casinos in Kansas.

The Kansas State Gaming Agency is a separate agency which provides oversight of the tribal-state gaming compacts for the five tribal casinos in Kansas. Its authority for this enforcement role comes through the Tribal Gaming Oversight Act.

Further, each federally-recognized American Indian tribe with a negotiated and approved tribal-state gaming compact also has a tribal gaming commission. Each commission regulates tribal gaming operations at a single tribal casino, including:

Iowa Tribe Gaming Commission
Kickapoo Tribe Gaming Commission
Prairie Band Potawatomi Nation Gaming Commission
Sac & Fox Nation Gaming Commission

Payout Returns in Kansas

The minimum theoretical payout limit for the four state-run, commercial casinos is 87%, per Kansas state law.

The KRGC provides monthly revenue reports for the four state-run casinos. With casino profits only, however, there is insufficient information to determine return statistics. Specifically, these reports do not show the amount won by players.

The minimum theoretical payout limit for all tribal casinos except for 7th Street Casino & Resort is 80%. This limit is in the Electronic Gaming Devices Technical Standards associated with each tribal-gaming compact within sub-section “Software Requirements for Percentage Payouts”.

Annual Progress in Kansas Slot Machine Casino Gambling

In the last year, Kansas Star Casino dropped from its first-place position as Kansas’ largest casino to the second-largest. Now, with 150 more slot machines, the largest casino in Kansas is Hollywood Casino at Kansas Speedway.

Further, there has been no progress with re-opening The Woodlands, a defunct pari-mutual racetrack with slots machines. If it had re-opened, The Woodlands would have been the largest casino in Kansas. It has stood empty in Kansas City for over a decade.
