Game Protection Procedures

Countermeasures

The comprehensive set of standardized operational controls designed to protect casino games from cheating, collusion, advantage play, and procedural errors. Game protection procedures include shuffle verification, dealer rotation, card and dice inspection protocols, bet verification, chip tray audits, and surveillance monitoring standards. These procedures are codified in each casino’s internal controls and are subject to regulatory review.

In practice

The World Game Protection Conference publishes best practices and emerging threat briefings that inform game protection procedures across the industry.

One entry from the Casino Industry Glossary — 1,157 terms written for surveillance, compliance and operations professionals rather than for players. Definitions describe industry usage; where a term carries a regulatory meaning, verify against the instrument that governs your jurisdiction.
