Underage Gambling

I would like to take a trip to Atlantic City to play poker, but I am under 21 years of age. I was informed by my friends that the Taj Mahal does not card. Please advise me regarding this adventure.

Thanks,

... Be sure to lose, and you won't have any trouble.

When you get to the table, make sure you order a drink if you want to pull this off. That way, they'll know you're 21.

is the legal age for online poker 18?

I haven't seen them card anyone at the tables or buying chips at the Taj, but I have heard of them carding people trying to cash their chips out at the end of the day...and if they card you then cause you have a babyface and you are underage, they police will comfiscate your chips and give you an expensive ticket.

I played at the Taj when I was 19. I had no problems buying in/cashing out. Furthermore, i was under the impression that any chips you managed to win at a casino where yours, and could not be confiscated from you...

Whether you go or not remember, don't even bring your id with you. They'll kick you out if you don't have ID and they card you. If you have an underage ID or a fake then your looking at criminal charges.

At most sites. I think it's 21 at Paradise.
