Gulfstream Slot Machines Carefully Protected

With the opening of the new Gulfstream Park Racing & Casino in Hallandale Beach, FL, new security measures needed to be taken to protect the slot machines. There are so many different ways of cheating a slot machine that the state brought in specially trained law enforcement to ward off any attempts at bilking the slot machines for money that should not be released.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) will have offices at each of the pari-mutuels, and they will be responsible for conducting background checks for slot machine and gaming licenses, as well as monitoring the casino floor. They will have access to all camera systems, so that if they need to focus in on a particular slot machine or table, they will be able to without casino security even knowing. The police have spoken with law enforcement across the country in order to be well versed in what to expect from the slot machine and gambling cheats. Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino near Hollywood was very forthcoming with them, and they received excellent ideas and training from them.

Not only will they be watching the cameras and the floors for slot machine cheats, they will also be protecting those in and out of the slot machine and gambling casino. On Wednesday a slot machine player hit a large jackpot and the police escorted the winner out to their car. The police actually think that the traffic in and out of the casino will be a much larger problem than the slot machine thieves will be.
