Land Poker is Illegal Too

Not only is online casinos gambling illegal in the United States, but for some players land poker tournaments are equally in the danger territory. In fact, land poker gambling is legal is South Carolina at designated areas, but a dozen or so residents of the state are learning that the home poker tourneys are not exactly legal on a large scale. In fact, better that the gamblers were caught online casinos gambling which carries no punishment for the at-home gamblers than the troubles that several South Carolina gamblers could face in the courts.

The latest news on the several arrested in the land poker gambling raids that turned up a complex poker gambling situation at multiple locations and allegedly involving paid dealers and the such is that those accused could see a jury acquittal in the case. The issue of card and dice games is questionable in South Carolina at this time. Along with online casinos gambling, home card games are currently on the taboo list although new legislation could legalize home-based games in the coming year.

That new legislation though neither affects the online casinos, nor the gamblers who are facing charges from the authorities for operating an land home poker gambling ring. Unlike the jury, the South Carolinian authorities are looking to push the issue into either fines, jail time, probation, or some sort of punishment that would deter others from operating similar poker gambling type rings. What is really interesting about the case is that several of those accused in this case either public officials of some sort. Included in those facing prosecution include a police officer and a state deputy prosecutor.
