Default Re: legality of raked tables for all participants in ontario

Thank you for the information. Using that, i was able to find the governmental listings of the criminal code.

http://laws.justice.gc.ca/en/C-46/18...tml#rid-181052

Clearly it is both unlikely for a place to be busted, and in the event that it is - unlikely that individual players will be targetted. But for the sake of members of my family, i'd like to know the full extent to which players can conceivably be punished.

According to the documents, players are "guilty of an offence punishable on summary conviction."


I know very little about the Canadian legal system. What does a summary conviction mean, in this case?

Do you know of any articles from reputable sources that give any information with respect to what frequency players are held accountable?
