If so then I'm surprised that Phoenix didn't try to get a job at one.

Well, I can't say for certain, but the game clearly states that gambling is illegal. Now whether that was only a plot point or an actual fact, the game stresses repeatedly that what Phoenix is doing is not actually gambling because they are not playing for money. The people who want to play pay the club owner who then pays Phoenix's salary. Casinos are based around gambling, not simply card games based on points.

Gambling is also in some cases illegal in America. It's different for Casinos since they usually have legal permits to create their establishments with the idea that gambling will be their main attraction. It's only illegal to gamble in casinos if you're under 21 as far as I know from the current laws :]~

Well in Florida, gambling is only illegal unless the government gets its share, since we have India casinos and cruise ship gambling I was just curious about the rest of the world.

Last I checked, casinos are illegal in Japan. Pachinko is about as close as it gets.

Not the legal kind, that's for sure.

And Phoenix wouldn't look so hot in a mini-skirt to be Pachinko advertiser.

Yeah, as I know several people (in the US) who play poker professionally (all legal -- the discussions they have about filing taxes properly are fascinating), the whole OMG gambling bit was a bit odd. (Though that made the grape juice seem normal; no decent gambler drinks alcohol while working.)

He should take a cue from Edgeworth and go abroad. A cruise ship would probably paiy well for a dealer.
