Re: Another raid at a loacl club
[ QUOTE ]
Is this more legitimate because I pay monthly vs. hourly? As a member, I would like to pay hourly so I can pay as I go.

but if you read the article, the members are already paying a yearly fee, then a time charge on top of that. your argument doesnt hold up.
if the majority of people in the club are there to gamble, and the club takes money based on how long they are there, then it is obvious that they are making money from gambling.
whereas in every other type of legitimate club, the fees are the same regardless of amount of time you use the country club. they are also taking money in from the activity of golf, rather than a club solely to try and skirt illegal gaming laws. nobody was paying simply to hang out in this club and you know it, and the judge will too.
