18yr olds cant gamble!

(1/3) > >>

pinkitty:
Just a thought here, why did the HG's not catch on to NataLIE's lie about her age?

If you know anything about gambling, you will know you have to be 21 to do so no matter
what state you live in.

I'm curious as to what Nats response would be if someone asked her how she got to play
"professional poker" if she was not of age?

That should have been everyone's first clue that she is a liar.

At age 18 for me I was very mature, and many of my friends at that age were mature too.
She acted more like her shoe size than an 18yr old.

My 15 yr old acts more mature than she does.

MY guess is the HG's didn't think hard enough to catch her in lie after lie (have to give her that as much as I despise her)

georgiapeach:
We have also been saying for weeks that the fact she talked about casinos should have been a tip-off, as you have to be 21 there as well.

In some states (New York, Rhode Island), the minimum age to gamble is 18. In Connecticut, the minimum age to play Bingo at Foxwoods and buy scratch tickets and Lotto (and let's include playing pull tabs) is 18. To actually gamble in the casino, it's 21. Depends on what state you live in.

pledge:
Some of Indian Gaming Casinos in our area(Calif) allow 18 year olds.  They are the
ones that don't sell alcohol.  Nat was drinking and I know the legal age for
drinking in Calif is 21.

pinkitty:
Thanks for letting me know about the state rules

and forgive me, I didnt know this has been talked about

as for the drinking, when I went into the Navy (I was 18) drinking was legal ON THE BASE
but I highly doubt Nat is a service member!

She wouldnt last long in boot camp

They boot you if you try to cheat lie and steal!!
