| Illegal casinos are often small rooms with two or three tables operating. The most common types of gambling tables are baccarat, blackjack, and a version of stud poker called pepito. Although these rooms tend to be small in size, large sums of money, often in the tens of thousands of dollars, are won and lost daily. |

The incidence of Internet gambling is increasing in Hawaii. In these Internet casinos are full-scale video versions of common games that are found in all casinos.
The Internet sites are often based outside the United States where such gambling activity is legal. Although this activity may be legal there, participating in it from Hawaii is illegal and the Gambling Detail is currently working with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in the investigation of these types of cases.
