How much financing does a casino have to hold? I seem to remember it being related to the maximum bet/win, but can't remember how?

'5000 times the maximum 'straight up' bet on a roulette table plus 25% of the total.'

eg Max bet £1000 then £5,000,000 plus £1,250,000 = £6,250,000

That info is from the 1969 act, the latest act is yet to be implemented.

I can't recall any reference to reserves in the new act and only have the old info here. I think the Gambling Commission will probably be able to set it's own parameters.

Do they have to have it in cash on the premises or just in a bank account somewhere?

Lol - I wish.

Because the Gutshot case has made a few of the papers the mob in the office were asking me about it.

The money is kept in a bank account. Imagine the insurance costs and security required to keep £6m+ on the premises.

The law does not state whether one reserve can cover a group of casinos or if each individual casino must hold a reserve. The Gaming Board/Gambling Commission no doubt have a policy to cover this. The large Casino goups would have no problem covering either position.
