What a joke "charity gaming" is...
I belong to a local community service club and we use to hosts this type of events, but no longer. Since I'm not a gambler my job was casher/assistant and after watching what was going on for a few events, I caught on to what the deal was.
Some our most notable people of community would come in a right a big check out to our charity for chips in exchange. I would follow and watch as they would drop a few chips her and there on the games have a drink or two chat with friends about how good this event was, then walk over to the casher and cash in the remaining chips for cash.
So here's my gripe: if you're going to support a charity for the tax deduction, then give it all to them so they can do some good with it in your community. Had they won the games fairly I wouldn't feel this way. We stopped hosting the events because of a few who need abuse the system for personal gains.
How do you play this game?
