Street Gambling

[Nomad]

Gambling in any form, including street gambling, is illegal in my home country, however, gambling is allowed for foreigners visiting in the country. In fact, most of the 5 star hotels have casinos. Interesting, during festivals like Diwali, people are allowed to gamble even on street. Well, they don't allow legally but they don't persecute people for gambling. Have you ever gambled on street?

I know some people that used to play dice in the streets. I wasn’t good at it, so I never played dice.

Does playing poker in a garage count? I played home games/gambled outside on poker a few times.

I used to play poker with my family as a kid. We used ceramic poker chips.

Streets naw, not in adulthood. Poker with friends in a private residence, that's another story.

What kinda constitution is that though? If the government is against gambling they should just ban it altogether. Why open it for foreigners alone?

I have seen this multiple times in my home country but I havent tried it. Street gambling is when people play games for money on the street. It's not usually allowed because it's not censored. Although some people do it for fun.

I used to stake with some people in my neighborhood during football banters. We would keep the money with a neutral person till the result of the contentious us issue is out. Most times, it is always, "My team would beat your team". "Let's stake money". I have won sometimes and lost sometimes.
