Gaming (defined in Section 6) means playing a game of chance for a prize. Game of chance is a game, which includes both an element of chance and an element of skill; or where an element of chance can be eliminated by superlative skill; or where the game is presented as involving an element of chance. The game cannot however include a sport. A person plays a game of chance if s/he participates in the game; it is irrelevant whether or not there are other participants or whether there are computer-generated images of other participants. Playing for a prize means where the participant acquires a chance of winning a prize by playing, and prize means money or money's worth.
Betting (defined in Section 9) means making or accepting a bet on the outcome of a race, competition or other event or process; on the outcome of anything occurring or not occurring; or on whether anything is or is not true. It is irrelevant whether that event has already taken place (or has failed to take place), or where one party knows the outcome. It should be noted that spread betting is regulated by the Financial Services Authority and does not come within this definition of betting.
A lottery (defined in Section 14) is either a simple lottery or a complex lottery. A simple lottery is one where persons are required to pay to participate and one or more prizes are allocated to one or more members of a class, and the prizes are allocated by a process, which relies wholly on chance. A complex lottery is where persons are required to pay to participate and one or more prizes are allocated to one or more members of a class, and the prizes are allocated by a series of processes where the first of those processes relies wholly on chance. Prize means money, articles or services provided by the members of the class among whom the prize is allocated. It should be noted that the National Lottery is not included in this definition of lottery and is regulated by the National Lottery Commission.
A definition of remote gambling is also provided. 'remote gambling' (where persons are not face to face on the smake premises) i.e. gambling via the Internet, interactive television and mobile telephones, will be regulated in Great Britain. It will also be the first time that betting has been subject to a national regulator.
