UNLV Gaming Research & Review Journal, 21(1), 43-48
Plain-language summary
Uses economic theory to examine casino entry fees as a responsible gambling measure. The analysis finds weak support for their use: fees may deter price-sensitive recreational players more than people experiencing gambling problems, creating economic costs and increasing reliance on revenue from the latter group.
