Blackjack players at the MGM Springfield have filed a lawsuit against the casino regarding certain table games. It alleges that the MGM Springfield paid customers with odds of 6 to 5 when a blackjack was dealt, but the state law requires that a player be paid odds of 3 to 2 when dealt a blackjack. The 3 to 2 odds would provide a larger payout to the player.
MGM Springfield says it follows state regulations for payouts. Its spokesperson Saverio Mancini said: “We comply with all Massachusetts Gaming Commission regulations and feel confident that this lawsuit will be found to have no merit.”
The Commission has been made aware of the lawsuit against MGM Springfield and is evaluating the details of the filing.
This lawsuit is the second of its kind for Massachusetts. Just a few weeks ago, the Encore Boston Harbor faced a similar lawsuit regarding 6:5 blackjack payouts. Shawn Allyn is representing the MGM Springfield plaintiffs.
