Q&A: Are poker tournaments legal in California?
Question by Spencer S: Are poker tournaments legal in California?
A bunch of my friends and I were thinking of hosting a poker tournament with a PS3 for the winner. We were going to charge a buy in and give away a % of the winnings to the winner and top players. Is this legal or not (for California)?
Originally I was thinking it was because people enter other tournaments, like sports or video games, where there is an entrance fee, and the winner takes a % of the pot. This would be no different, but poker is a gambling game.
Anyways, I don’t want to do anything illegal so hopefully someone knows the answer. I was planning on opening it up to the public because most of my friends don’t play poker as far as I know.

Is it or is it not legal for US citizens to play poker online for money?

Question by chzbrgr: Is it or is it not legal for US citizens to play poker online for money?
I’ve seen sites like PokerStars and FullTilt that offer for-money games open to US players, but I’ve also heard repeatedly that online poker is illegal here. These sites are big operations, not exactly running under the table, so how does that work?

Is online poker for real money legal in the state of Florida?

Question by BW: Is online poker for real money legal in the state of Florida?
I am considering using my poker skills to make some extra money gambling online, but do not want to violate any laws. I am new to the state of Florida, so I am unsure of the state laws that pertain to online gambling for real money. Could someone please give me the scoop? Layman’s terms please. I do not not need replicated statutes that make it hard to understand. Thanks.
