Scope and Purpose

In accordance with M.G.L. c. 23N, § 13(e)(2), the Commission shall establish a list of self-excluded Persons from Sports Wagering. 205 CMR 233.00 shall govern the procedures and protocols relative to the list of Persons self-excluded from entering a Sports Wagering Area or a Sports Wagering Facility, or holding a Sports Wagering Account. The voluntary-self exclusion list shall consist of names and information relative to those individuals who have complied with the requirements of 205 CMR 233.00 and have been placed on the list by the Commission. Placement of one's name on the self-exclusion list is intended to offer individuals one means to help address problem gambling behavior or deter an individual with family, religious, or other personal concerns from entering the Sports Wagering Area or Sports Wagering Facility, or holding a Sports Wagering Account. (2) For purposes of 205 CMR 233.00, the term 'problem gambler' shall have the same meaning as that term is defined in 205 CMR 133.01: Scope and Purpose.
