The dealer or boxperson shall promptly deposit the currency or value chips into the table inventory or drop box.
(b)A player shall cash out a dealer-controlled table game using an electronic wagering system by receiving value chips from the dealer or boxperson from the table inventory container equal in value to the balance in the game account of the player.

(a)Two or more table games that are located within the same gaming facility and offer a shared progressive jackpot shall be linked using an approved local area progressive (LAP) controller.
(b)The LAP controller shall:
(1)be capable of uniquely identifying each linked progressive table game;
(2)become inoperable if any of the following errors occur:
(i)random access memory failures;
(ii)power failures;
(iii)self-check errors;
(iv)incorrect configurations; or
(v)lost jackpot configurations;
(3)be designed to:
(i)recover from an error or communication failure and, when recovered, to return to the state such LAP controller was in prior to the error or communication failure;
(ii)automatically and accurately calculate the progressive jackpot amount based on a configured rate of progression and continuously update the required displays and meters;
(iii)accurately identify and record the order of winning progressive jackpots when two or more linked progressive table games achieve the same winning game outcome at nearly the same time;
(iv)complete a self-check when powered-up. A LAP controller shall be designed so that it becomes operational only if it has successfully passed a self-check. A self-check shall include an authentication of the LAP controller software by means of, at a minimum, a 16-bit cyclical redundancy check; and
(4)not allow progressive parameter changes while a progressive link is in operation.
(c)Any progressive connected to a LAP controller shall become unplayable when the LAP controller is disabled or inoperable or if the progressive loses communication with the LAP controller.
(d)A gaming facility shall specify the following in its documented internal controls required under section 5313.1 of this Title:
(1)the mechanism by which the certificate holder and the patrons will be notified if the LAP controller or the linked progressive on a table game becomes inoperable;
(2)the secure location within the licensed facility where the LAP controller will be stored;
(3)an access matrix containing a list of users and a description of their access rights to the LAP controller software; and
(4)key controls over the cabinet or rack that houses the LAP controller.
(e)A gaming facility is required to house physically, in each location where a LAP controller is stored, an entry authorization log that documents each time a LAP controller is accessed. Such log shall:
(1)contain the date, time, purpose for accessing the LAP controller and signature of the person accessing the LAP controller;
(2)be maintained in the location where the LAP controller unit is housed; and
(3)have recorded a sequence number and the manufacturer's serial number of the LAP controller.
(f)A gaming facility seeking to use a linked progressive on a table game shall submit for approval the location and manner of installing a progressive meter display mechanism.
(g)Two or more table games within the same gaming facility that are linked to a common progressive meter for the purpose of offering a shared progressive jackpot shall:
(1)have the same probability of hitting the combination that will award the progressive jackpot as every other table game linked to the common progressive meter; and
(2)require that the same progressive wager amount be invested to entitle the player a chance at winning the progressive jackpot.
(h)Progressive wager amounts shall not be changed by a gaming facility unless such gaming facility receives approval for a proposed change from the commission in writing, pursuant to section 5323.13 of this Title.
(i)Table games that offer a linked progressive jackpot shall not be made available for play by the public until the LAP controller and the linked progressive table games have been tested by a licensed independent testing laboratory pursuant to Parts 5318 and 5320 of this Title.
(j)All pay tables for linked progressive table game combinations shall be submitted to the commission for approval, prior to use.
