The Commission is also charged with the responsibility of adopting regulations to implement and enforce the State laws governing gaming.
When the Gaming Control Board believes discipline against a gaming licensee is appropriate, the Board acts in the prosecutorial capacity, while the Commission acts in the judicial capacity to determine whether any sanctions should be imposed.
In actual history the chair of the Commission at this time was future senator Harry Reid.
[2] In the 2001 film Ocean's Eleven the NGC has a (fictitious) regulation that requires casinos to hold in reserve enough cash to cover every chip in play on their floor.
In the film, Matt Damon plays a character who passes himself off as an NGC agent.
