I FEEL HOW WEAK AND FRUITLESS MUST BE ANY WORDS OF MINE WHICH SHOULD ATTEMPT TO BEGUILE YOU FROM THE GRIEF OF A LOSS SO OVERWHELMING. I PRAY THAT OUR HEAVENLY FATHER MAY ASSUAGE THE ANGUISH OF YOUR BEREAVEMENT, AND LEAVE YOU ONLY THE CHERISED MEMORY OF THE HANDS LOVED AND LOST, AND THE SOLEMN PRIDE THAT MUST BE YOURS TO HAVE LAID SO COSTLY A SACRIFICE UPON THE ALTAR OF FREEDOM. ALLOW MY CAPSLOCK KEY TO EXPRESS BUT A FRACTION OF MY CONDOLENCES.

Happy Holidays,

Caveat, this is not to be construed as legal advice and I am not licensed in Colorado. You may want to see about getting an attorney as this charge likely could go away if you have a clean record.
It appears that unless you are a professional, the charge would be a class one petty offense

18-10-103. Gambling - professional gambling - offenses.
Statute text

(1) A person who engages in gambling commits a class 1 petty offense.

(2) A person who engages in professional gambling commits a class 1 misdemeanor. If he is a repeating gambling offender, it is a class 5 felony.


A petty offense is subject to the following punishment
18-1.3-503. Petty offenses classified - penalties.
Statute text

(1) A violation of a statute of this state is a "petty offense" if specifically classified as a class 1 or class 2 petty offense. The penalty for commission of a class 1 petty offense, upon conviction, is a fine of not more than five hundred dollars, or imprisonment for not more than six months other than in state correctional facilities, or both. The penalty for commission of a class 2 petty offense is a fine specified in the section defining the offense. The penalty assessment procedure of section 16-2-201, C.R.S., is available for the payment of fines in class 2 petty offense cases.

Re: game gets busted
 

Wow you are a [censored] idiot not to hide the money if the cops were coming and you were given a warning. What did you think they were going to do with your money? That would have been the first thing I did followed by high tail it out of there so I didn't have to pay the ticket...albeit it would have been hard if there was swat like you said. I doubt they were really swat though. Everybody always says that but there's a difference between a swat team and your average police.
