Three casinos in the Argentine province of Buenos Aires are being forced to close as the governor aims to restrict residents’ access to gambling products.

This week, Buenos Aires Gov. María Eugenia Vidal (pictured) confirmed ordering the closure on December 31 of a casino in Valeria del Mar. Two other casinos in Necochea and Mar de Ajó will close in the coming months, and a planned bingo parlor in Temperley will not open.

La Nacion quoted Vidal telling reporters that her administration had kept a tight lid on gambling during its first two years in office. “No more machines were added, we did not open a single lottery agency … Now will follow a state in which we will further restrict the game.”

Prior to the closures, there were 12 casinos and 46 bingo halls in the province. Two of the casinos have licenses that don’t expire until 2019 and 2021, leaving seven casinos that will be part of a new tender process.
