In 2013, the state allowed Horseshoe to hold the WSOP tournament with unapproved camera systems, OCCC executive director Matthew Schuler wrote in an email, but the commission would not allow the same system to be used for the 2015 WSOP stop. State law mandates cameras inside the state's four casinos so state regulators can monitor the cards played, wagers and the outcomes of games, according to OCCC spokeswoman Jessica Franks. The tournament was held in a large banquet hall inside the casino, which required temporary camera set ups around temporary poker tables similar to the systems used to monitor the casino's permanent poker tables. The Ohio Casino Control Commission (OCCC) said it warned Horseshoe's management in 2013 that the cameras used to monitor the WSOP tournament were not in compliance with state law. The World Series of Poker had a tournament scheduled for March 19-30 at Cincinnati's Horseshoe Casino. CINCINNATI, OH (FOX19) - A national poker tour will not make a stop in Cincinnati this month after state regulators said the casino refused to comply with casino surveillance camera laws.
