After the establishment of the gaming regulatory act, tribal casinos popped up across the US, leading to the current scene that identifies close to 500 Indian casinos in the USA. When the law came to effect, the federal government formed the NIGC (National India Gaming Commission) to oversee tribal gaming activity and ensure operations remained within the legal framework. This act provided the legal canvas for Native American tribes to erect sportsbooks that could accept bets on tribal land. The rudimentary steps that shaped the modern gambling scene in New Mexico began in 1988 when the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act was established. 8505 Montgomery Drive NE, Albuquerque, NM 87111, USAĤ188, 12500 Montgomery Blvd NE #133, Albuquerque, NM 87111, USAġ4500 Central Ave SW, Albuquerque, NM 87121, USAĥ4 Jemez Canyon Dam Rd, Bernalillo, NM 87004, USAġ45 Louisiana Blvd NE, Albuquerque, NM 87108, USAĢ87 Carrizo Canyon Rd, Mescalero, NM 88340, USAġ200 Futurity Dr, Sunland Park, NM 88063, USAĢ6225 US-70, Ruidoso Downs, NM 88346, USAĦ8 Cities of Gold Rd, Santa Fe, NM 87506, USAģ0 Buffalo Thunder Trail, Santa Fe, NM 87506, USA
