Take WA
[FN30]. We do not mean to suggest that these statutes are mutually exclusive, by any means. That
certain gambling games are also lotteries is evident from any of the cases we have already
examined in this opinion; e.g., punchboards and pull tabs, as noted above; slot machines, as
held by the court in the Brotherhood case; certain card games; and in all probability at least
certain types of pinball machines - See, State v. oats, supra. As the Oregon court said in that case:
"If any substantial degree of skill or judgment is involved, it is not a lottery. Of course, all
forms of gambling involve prize, chance and consideration, but not all forms of gambling are
lotteries."
It's right there in the writing all you need to get your poker carve out.
All you computer nerds and wizards should be thinking of ways to 100% prove to non believers that it's a skill game.
