HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) – State regulators ordered Foxwoods Resort Casino to shut down an Internet promotion Friday, saying it violated Internet gambling laws and illegally expanded gambling off the Indian reservation.

The casino, among the world’s largest, markets its “PlayAway” promotion as a way to play slots and card games from home.

The Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Gaming Commission said Friday that it was reviewing a letter from the state Division of Special Revenue.

After a Wednesday meeting with Attorney General Richard Blumenthal, however, the tribe stood by its game, saying it was legal.

“Nothing the player does from his computer can in any way impact on the outcome of the game, the results of which have already been determined by a computerized drawing at Foxwoods,” the tribe said in a statement released Wednesday.

PlayAway allows gamblers to put their money down at Foxwoods, then check results online. The casino argues that it isn’t Internet gambling because all the betting is done at Foxwoods.

“We certainly understand the argument,” Blumenthal said Friday, “but it is clearly contradicted by their own marketing for the game.”

Blumenthal said the game was a magnet for minors.

“This game has to stop,” he said.

The game was still available online Friday afternoon.
