1. A system configured to monitor potential money laundering activity through regulating gaming machines, the system comprising:
electronic storage that stores, for individual play sessions on gaming machines of a set of gaming machines including at least a first gaming machine and a second gaming machine, parameter values for (i) consideration input parameters, (ii) play parameters, and (iii) consideration extraction parameters, wherein
the consideration input parameters for a given play session include consideration amount input during the given play session, and currency denominations input as consideration during the given play session,
the play parameters for the given play session include one or more of a number of game events played during the given play session, an amount of times consideration is added during the given play session, an amount of consideration wagered for individual ones of the game events during the given play session, a total amount of consideration wagered over the individual play sessions, a comparison or proportion of a total amount of consideration wagered with a total amount of consideration input during the given play session, an amount of time between the game events during the given play session, and/or a duration of the given play session,
the consideration extraction parameters for the given play session include a consideration output balance obtained by a user subsequent to the given play session and an identifier, and
wherein the play sessions include a first play session; and
one or more processors configured by machine-readable instructions to:
obtain, from the electronic storage, the parameter values for (i) the consideration input parameters, (ii) the play parameters, and (iii) the consideration extraction parameters for the first play session, wherein the consideration extraction parameters for the first play session include a first consideration output balance, and a first identifier;
determine, from the parameter values for the first play session, a first session risk score which quantifies a likelihood that redemption of the first consideration output balance without subsequent gaming on the gaming machines of the set of gaming machines using the first consideration output balance is money laundering;
receive a redemption request to redeem the first consideration output balance, wherein the redemption request includes the first identifier; and
responsive to receipt of the redemption request, further responsive to the presence of the first identifier redemption request, and still further responsive to the first session risk score indicating the likelihood that redemption of the first consideration output balance without subsequent gaming on the gaming machines of the set of gaming machines using the first consideration output balance is money laundering breaching a threshold of likelihood, effectuate a notification of the first session risk score to an electronic device of an administrative user.
