To ALL players and owners in New York City - PLEASE READ

This defintion distinguishes the guy who organizes a social game in his house who is other than being the guy who organized the game is on no different footing than the other players.

But in your scenario not everyone who is a member is going to be playing in all the time.

So Member A rents the building. Buys the tables gets the chips and cards. If he is sitting in the game he is a player. But next week he is still the guy on the lease who bought the tables and he isn't playing. Now is his defense that he is a player?

How about the floorman? is he a player? How about your dealers (thgis problem goes away if self dealt) Someone is collecting money to pay for all this this is no longer without fee or renumeration. The guy at the door making sure only members enter . . . is he a player?
