New Mexico has 11 Indian casinos that offer an assortment of table games and electronic gaming machines. Additionally, slot machines are allowed at four of the state's race tracks as well as at about 30 various fraternal and veterans clubs.
New Mexico gaming regulations require that electronic machines at racetracks and fraternal/veterans organizations be set to return a minimum of 80% and a maximum of 96%.
New Mexico's Indian tribes do not make their slot machine payback percentages a matter of public record but the terms of the compact between the state and the tribes require all electronic gaming machines to return a minimum of 80%.
Unless otherwise noted, all New Mexico Indian casinos are open 24 hours and offer: blackjack, craps, roulette, video slots and video poker. Some casinos also offer: mini-baccarat (MB), poker (P), pai gow poker (PGP), Caribbean stud poker (CSP), let it ride (LIR), big 6 wheel (B6), keno (K), bingo (BG) and Simulcasting (S).
