B.

C. As used in the Amusement and Carnival Games Act: 1. "Razzle" or "flat store" means any game, whether skill or chance, in which the player pays money or other valuable consideration in return for the opportunity to make successive attempts to obtain points by use of dice, darts, marbles, numbered ping-pong balls, pins, blocks, conversion charts or other implements, and where such points are accumulated in successive games by the player toward a total number of points, miles or yards, or other increments, determined by the game operator, which is required for the player to win a prize or other valuable consideration; and 2. "Alibi game" means any game, whether skill or chance, in which the game operator controls or affects the outcome of the game, winners or losers, by enforcing foul lines, release lines, and rules selected and enforced randomly, and at will, whether posted or verbalized, during actual pay-to-play by the player, while not enforcing these same foul lines, release lines and rules during the player's free shots or free plays allowed during demonstration of how the game is played, as an enticement to the player. Further, "alibi game" means any game, whether skill or chance, in which the operator controls or affects the outcome of the game, winners or losers, by off-setting or manipulating balls, pins, bottles or other implements, or any other means of trickery or deception to cheat or defeat the player, or void the player's win.
