Relevant Legal Statutes on Gambling in South Dakota*

The minimum legal gambling age in South Dakota depends upon the gambling activity:

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

The casinos located in the city of Deadwood must follow state gaming regulations. Children may accompany their parents in most casinos until 8 p.m. South Dakota is the only U.S. gaming jurisdiction allowing minors to be present while their parents gamble.

The tribal casinos located throughout South Dakota must follow the gaming regulations in their negotiated and approved tribal-state gaming compact. Among other items of interest, these compacts limit the number of slot machines at a casino. This limit changes based on how long the compact has existed.

For example, the proposed Class III gaming compact between the Oglala Sioux Tribe and the state of South Dakota calls for:

  • 500 gaming machines at the effective date of the compact
  • 600 gaming machines after two years
  • 750 gaming machines after four years

South Dakota also has two pari-mutuel facilities with horseracing during the spring season, but do not offer slot machines at them. An additional facility offers simulcast and dog racing.

*The purpose of this section is to inform the public of state gambling laws and how the laws apply to various forms of gambling. This information is not intended to provide legal advice.

Payout Returns in South Dakota

South Dakota gaming regulations have set a minimum payout return of 80% during the expected lifetime of a slot machine at Deadwood casinos.

The Gaming Division of the South Dakota Department of Revenue provides Annual Reports which include the annual player win percentage for all Deadwood casinos. For fiscal year 2018, beginning in July 2017 and ending in June 2018, it was 90.34%.

At least 11 months after the most recent fiscal year has passed, the state gaming commission reports a monthly casino hold% for individual slot machine denominations at Deadwood casinos. Recall that player win percent equals 100% minus the casino hold%.

For example, the most recent month of June 2018 reports:

  • Penny slots (2,388 units): 90.66%
  • Nickel slots (115 units): 89.98% (lowest)
  • Dime slots (6 units): 92.02%
  • Quarter slots (203 units): 90.84%
  • Fifty-cent slots: (11 units) 92.66% (second-highest)
  • Dollar slots (274 units): 92.91% (highest)
  • Five-dollar slots (74 units): 91.03%
  • Twenty-Five-dollar slots (7 units): 90.63% (second-lowest)

At the request of the South Dakota Lottery, independent gaming labs created the odds of winning at each video lottery terminal game, none of which include slots. Instead, available games are video poker, video keno, video blackjack, and video bingo.
