11VAC15-40-300. Player device general requirements. Line 1704-1707:

H. 1704 The number of player devices, other than those player devices that are handheld,
1705 present at any premise at which charitable gaming is conducted shall be limited to one
1706 device for every 50 permissible occupants under the maximum occupancy as
1707 determined pursuant to the Uniform Statewide Building Code.

This should also limit the number of handheld pull-tab devices as well as non hand held- used exclusively for pull tabs. The concern voiced by charities is that the non-bingo operations in clubs, which are not bound by the same licensing hours of operation limitations as charitable bingo, will begin to take players away from their games just as the sweepstakes slots did last year. The charities have requested that the handheld devices used for session bingo not be limited for electronic session bingo or electronic pull tabs.
