The case centered on whether the racetrack’s use of dealer-assist technology violated the tribal exclusivity on electronic gaming in Minnesota. The tribe argued that the dealer-assist games at Running Aces, which combine traditional card games with electronic elements, constituted a violation of the state’s gaming laws. Running Aces offers two dealer-assist games: Aces Live and Community Card Blackjack. The lower court sided with Running Aces, ruling that dealer-assist games did not fall under the category of electronic gambling, as they still involved human dealers and were more akin to traditional table games than video slots. With no majority opinion, the court effectively upheld the lower court’s decision, allowing Running Aces to continue offering dealer-assist games.
