The vice units of major police forces are cash strapped and if an operator of game keeps the game free of violence and other crimes associated with illegal games the police won't bother with them.
In Woodbridge with the shooting of customers, staff and firebombings this was the complete opposite and a task force which cost millions was set up to take down the organization which ran games and had the other crimes associated with gambling.
If you want to see how the police have ignored crime look at when the police raid massage parlours, they only really look for under age girls and trafficked women.
The legalization of marijuana is another example of this as the federal government has stated the wild west growing and selling of the drug was too expensive to enforce the laws on the book.
