But you are right about the questioning. Give your ID, act respectfully,and there is no need to answer any question about another game or club. Then go home.

I don't understand. Why give them your ID? If playing cards isn't a crime, what do they need your ID for? There's no law that says you have to produce ID on demand for a police officer unless you were driving.

Actually Ed you are wrong about this see this recent Supreme Court Decision -- Though you are not required to hand over an ID you are required to identify yourself and falsely identifying yourself would be a violation of law:

Although this is a case arising under Nevada law, you will see in the citations within the decision that NY has a similar statute.

(Yes I think the decision is wrong, but that doesn't seem to matter much when the Supremem Court rules)

this is so wrong it's not even funny. This is NOT what that case you are citing is holding, and New York law varies GREATLY from Nevada law on this subject.
