Got to do some research on how legalized gambling is good for the national economy (so I guess I cant count indian casinos) and hope to hear from people from other states, Is gambling illegal in any state?

View Full Version : Is their any state in the United States that gambling is illegal? spinksjinx 02-08-2005, 01:51 PM Got to do some research on how legalized gambling is good for the national economy (so I guess I cant count indian casinos) and hope to hear from people from other states, Is gambling illegal in any state?

It's legal up here in Ontario, Canada, though the government limits the number of casinos. Quebec has even looser rules...they have video lottery terminals in most bars. You might want to google stuff about them...it's not in the States, but our economies are not that much different, despite what people on both sides of the border like to think :cool: . Explosivo 02-08-2005, 02:59 PM I think its legal as long as the state gets a piece of the action. In Cali there are some card clubs and the state lottery. The only casinos that I know of are Indian. Indian casinos are a different stroy since they are technically not part of the state. Im not sure how that **** works. If its illegal in any state I would guess it would be Utah. Mr. Ryan 02-08-2005, 03:02 PM I know it is illegal to gamble in my gym class and in Emerson High School's bathroom.

I thought New York had state lotteries or casinos? m00ks 02-08-2005, 06:42 PM Really? I thought New York had state lotteries or casinos? surprised me... neils7147933 02-08-2005, 06:58 PM Indiana only has gambling on riverboats. Unless you count the Hoosier Lottery... Both of those are recent additions. It was totally illegal a decade or so ago... Dr.Depravity 02-08-2005, 10:24 PM Here in Iowa they have pretty strict control over gambling. In Des Moines they have a horse track and casino. They have just added gamming tables, before all they had was the horse races and slot machines. I believe there is a dog track in Dubuque, not sure if its still there or not. In my town last year we voted to allow a river boat casino. It turns out that it wont be a boat at all but it will be built above water. There are a couple of others in the state but they are Indian owned. Heres a link to the Des Moines casino. http://www.prairiemeadows.com/ .::|ULTIMATE|::. 02-08-2005, 11:03 PM In california its illegal unless its on an indian casino thing.

Man better start checking the bible belt, thats your best bet in finding a state with no gambling at all. Soundtraveler 02-08-2005, 11:42 PM Sure, Louisiana, and Mississippi has legalized gambling. As a matter of fact I won $1,200.00 last week playing poker. spinksjinx 02-09-2005, 06:50 AM Whats a bible bet? SoundTraveler-Congrats, I am looking for states that have not yet legalized gambling. Kornhusker 02-09-2005, 09:16 AM I'm pretty sure it is illegal in Neb. I know they were trying to get it legalized up there last election. puppy_dogg 02-09-2005, 09:29 AM no lottery in bama, southern baptist wont allow it :mad: :mad: |
