Legal Question
An Organized Poker Game with 10% proceeds to charity
I am aware that poker is illegal when somebody profits directly or indirectly. I am considering having a 100 player tournament with $20 buy in each with top 10 paying out and 10% of the pot going to a charity.
I want to know if this game would be legal as long as I donate money to charity. Is 10% not enough to make it legal or is it just plain illegal no matter how much you are donating?
