I think they are illegal in nearly all jurisdictions in the US. I personally have no objection to them except for the problems they cause and might cause to the tournament organization. If someone wants to drop a dime on the TD, for example, it's a problem for everyone.


IIRC if someone other than a player joins in the calcutta then it becomes illegal. if its only players then its legal. Or something like that.
 
Love to read statutes !

Poolnut, is 45.003(c) the clincher against calcuttas ?

Should my cue be considered as gambling parapharnalia ? Those who matched up with me can tell you it isn't.
 
Maybe

Am I the only one that doesn't know what a calcutta is?


They are very prevalent in your state.--Leonard who has bought a few winners in SC callcuttas.

some folks call it a player auction but it is a side pot on top of the tournament money where you or the player can bid to win that player in the auction if he finishes in the top four you will win how much that spot pays.

Odd how there never seems to be a problem with the calcuttas that take place at golf courses! Maybe it's the perceived participants?
 
The point sank in and remember I haven't been on here for six months how would I know about the threads??

The funny thing is this last month when I started my calcutta two Denton police officers came in and sat at the table next to our room. I went over and shut the door and continued as I was..Everyone got a good kick out of that one...

I'll say this one more time and I hope there are a few who will really listen...

THE LAW HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. IT IS THE TABC AND THEIR ABILITY TO REVOKE ONES LIQUOR LICENSE! THE TABC IS FAR ABOVE THE LAW, THE TABC CANNOT DO ANYTHING TO ME PERSONALLY FOR CONDUCTING A CALCUTTA. THEY CAN HOWEVER SHUT THE PLACE DOWN ON THE SPOT, TAKE THE MONEY AND REVOKE LICENSE.

THE TABC HAS TOLD ME PERSONALLY THAT THEY ARE WATCHING THESE THREADS AND COLLECTING INFORMATION. TO THAT THEY CAN KISS MY ASS. THERE ARE THOSE WHO SHOULD TAKE NOTICE OF THIS FINAL WARNING AND SIMPLY DROP IT.

AS GRANNY AUSED TO SAY< ONE CAN OPEN HIS MOUTH AN SHOW HIS STUPIDITY OR KEEP IT SHUT ND SHOW A DEGREE OF INTELLIGENCE
 
Lewis I know the difference between law and TABC. I also know that Denton county only has 2 or 3 TABC officers whom of all I've seen or met. I did work in bars for 5 years here before I quit so I could finish school.

Honestly I don't think that if TABC is taking the time to watch these threads because they don't even follow up on local reports half the time. Either way everyone has to make their own decision and be smart about it. If they show up at my tournament it won't be because they read something on here it'll be because of a snitch, and if it comes to that I'll find that snitch, and well....
 
Neg rep

When hitting your rep bars, it say's you have a brilliant future. How can something so temporary be so Brilliant?


Maybe he's a shooting star. :idea:
 
I got a bad rep from a 'professor" here that was shameful. (Nameless):kma:
I was new and my post was a misplaced NPR at best. It was my first rep and until a kind non pompous AZer came along with a pos and pulled my out of the red.:kiss:

LOL some people.
