    But this is like saying “ski ball is dangerous because it’s a gateway to beer pong. By the way we see no issues with kids playing vodka pong”

      Its bad because children will associate poker with a good enjoyable time, which might lead them to a bad situation later on when they are permitted inside casinos.

      I consider most arcades with ticket prizes to be gambling as well, and shouldnt be for kids. Most kids dont realize they could have just bought the prize for far cheaper.

      And yes vodka pong is bad too, go yell at the rich vodka corporatists who paid the rating board to pass them though.

      I’ll give you a tip, nearly all certification or rating boards are grifts.

        This is sequence, a simple game where you place chips on the spaces that match the cards on your hand. The objective of the game is to complete 2 lines that are 5 chips long. Basically like connect 4. Do you think it should also be rated 18+?

        By that logic Yahtzee teaches kids dice are fun and trains them to think craps is fun.

        I’d rather have kids get interested in playing poker than pulling a slot machine lever.
