Is a pool tournament not gambling?

I believe the IRS Raid at Johnson City around 1966 for "Illegal Gambling" was eventually ruled unlawful by a judge and the confiscated monies returned to the players. I also believe Minnesota Fats testified to the judges amusement and had the courtroom in stitches. I was not there and other than our own Billy Incardona, I doubt anyone else can't substantiate "truth vs folklore" in this thread. But I'd like his input.

Well okay, My favorite memory has us 3 on the piece of corrugated roofing uh 3x8 with front folded back to make a toboggan for the foot of snow. me smallest in front with task of steering and a laid over barbed wire fence part of the obstacle course we found on the hill side. We made it to the bottom at enough speed that at the collision with the 3 inch sapling stopped the sled dead. We 3 flew over the obstacle and landed in opposite order from launch. We 3 were astronaut quality. 😉
