French term

établissement de jeux de hasard fixe

French to English Other Gaming/Video-games/E-sports
Fixed gaming institution/establishment doesn't sound like the kind of place I want to go gambling!

Was thinking "regular", any other bright ideas?

Thanks in advance :-)

Thanks Thanks to everyone for your help and contributions!

Yes, Phil is right.
philgoddard Aug 5, 2011:
Yes, Alain is right - though we could do with some context. "Mobile" means it's set up for specific events, eg horse races.
John Di Rico (asker) Aug 5, 2011:
Looks like Alain is on the right track... just came across: "établissements de jeux de hasard mobiles". Not sure though that this would be "online"...

permanent gaming hall/establishment

peut-etre "gambling" s'il s'agit de jeux d'argent ?

physical gambling establishment

Making the distinction between this and an on-line establishment.

The experience of playing real world live roulette resembles the experience that you’d get in a typical physical gambling establishment, except that it is possible to play real world live roulette within the convenience of your own houses.

Though I think that premises are taken to be fixed unless otherwise stated, one can refer to "fixed premises" or to "mobile premises". However, "fixed gambling premises" sounds very dodgy, so it would be better to use the rather longer formulation: "fixed premises used for gambling".

disagree philgoddard : You have to translate "fixe".

I have translated it by the use of the word "premises", as unless otherwise stated (e.g. mobile premises), premises are understood to comprise a building or buildings.

fixed-location/fixed gambling establishment

A fixed gambling establishment is a permanent establishment, clearly delimited in space, in which bets are operated.

The “overhauled” Article 8 the Act on Games of Chance will focus just on the devices (maximum 2) that can be installed in fixed-location gambling establishments

The F2 license allows wagers in a fixed or mobile class IV gambling establishment

. These gambling establishments can be divided into fixed or mobile gambling establishments.

Definition

It's the opposite of mobile:

"§ 2. Les établissements de jeux de hasard de classe IV sont fixes ou mobiles.

Un établissement de jeux de hasard fixe est un établissement permanent, clairement délimité dans l'espace, dans lequel les paris sont exploités.

Un établissement de jeux de hasard fixe a pour destination exclusive l'engagement de paris à l'exception de:

— la vente de journaux spécialisés, de magazines de sport et de gadgets;

— la vente de boissons non alcoolisées;

— l'exploitation de maximum deux jeux de hasard automatiques qui proposent des paris sur des activités similaires à celles engagées dans l'agence de paris. Le Roi fixe les conditions auxquelles ces jeux de hasard peuvent être exploités.

Un établissement de jeux de hasard mobile est un établissement temporaire, clairement délimité dans l'espace, qui est exploité à l'occasion, pour la durée et sur le lieu d'un événement, d'une épreuve sportive ou d'une compétition sportive. Il doit être clairement séparé des endroits où des boissons alcoolisées sont vendues pour être consommées sur place."

agree MatthewLaSon : Perhaps a "permanent gambling establishment/casino". Take care.

Yes, I actuallyposted this in support of Ben's answer, "permanent". My reference also uses this term in French.
