Gambling is a problem? Only to those who don't approve of it. Guess it all depends on who you talk to and what one's vice might be. Personally, if it provides enjoyment for a certain number of people and doesn't cause personal harm or affect the life of those who disagree with it then what is the problem with it?

This story is not the same as running some house poker nights. We had a discussion on this some time back (maybe during the horse racing campaign?).

Basically each state has different rules on what can be done for 'fun' as opposed to gambling for house profit.

Fun story but I just don't see it being an issue in TV.

Not in The Villages. The news item is very detailed including names and addresses.
