A constitutional amendment on the November ballot in Colorado could affect betting limits at tribal casinos.
Amendment 50 allows non-Indian casinos to raise betting limits from $5 to $100. It also allows round-the-clock hours, along with roulette and craps.
The amendment doesn't mention tribes but they could raise their betting limits if it passes. The tribal-state compact says tribes will be subject to the same rules as state casinos.
The Ute Mountain Ute Tribe isn't sure the amendment will affect its casinos, an attorney said. The Southern Ute Tribe is staying out of the debate.
