Re: Poker Runs Illegal from Texas Attorney General
TX has some strange laws..... Just try collecting money from somone in TX when you're out of state, you'll never see it..
Our CFO cringes whenever I bring in business and it's located in Texas. I believe TX was voted at one of the "fattest" states in a food study recently.... :rolleyes: |
Re: Poker Runs Illegal from Texas Attorney General
Gaming laws are handled by each state individually. I used to be involved with the casino boat business in South Carolina. I spent years following this stuff.
States can "fall back" on Federal laws, but for the most part they are independent. |

The only place in North America I could not collect from was Quebec. It really comes down to who you have collecting. :D |

Re: Poker Runs Illegal from Texas Attorney General
I have to ask this question. If a poker run is for charity and there is a payout to first, second, third.....wouldn't that be like 50/50 raffles for charity? Those are technically gambling but are they illegal?
What about the blue-hair bingo parlors (churches) :rolleyes: |
