The police have better things to do that worry about a little card playing in New Brunswick, despite the fact that unregulated gambling is a crime in the area. Two bars in Saint John, if not more, boldly advertise poker tournaments, yet remain open. On the other hand game in bars in Moncton are getting visits from the Codiac Royal Canadian Mounted Police, checking out claims of illegal gambling. In the atmosphere of uneven enforcement, local charities are in a quandary about what to do.
Outfits like the United Commercial Travelers service club and the Canadian Red Cross could stand to benefit from organized poker events, like No Limit Texas Hold’em tournaments, but are uncertain of how to proceed and are worried about facing criminal charges.
