One of the reasons I bought a 100 dollar ticket to IPL was precisely because it is age restricted. Drinks in the venue, gambling on site, and a more likeminded crowd are some of the advantages for me. I understand not wanting restrictions on the players, but keep in mind the advantages of having ipl at an adult venue. | ||

 .Players not allowing to go there because they could "touch" a Pokertable is ridiculous no matter how you look at it. Btw: Why is this a problem for Lennock/Koreans but not for Stephano??? (oh, 18is fine but 16 not?) | ||

Under 18, Casino is responsible because they let a minor in and let him touch gambling (THE HORROR!) Over 18, adult, under 21, knowingly went into a gambling establishment and touched gambling (which Jesus is against.) Limited liability to the casino. Welcome to America's wonderful morality laws. It's been wonderful for our online poker lives. -_- | ||

 I doubt they'll send asd as he's got the Code S Ro16 to worry about or Gumiho/Oz as they have Code A Ro4 to prepare for. It's looking like thebest option is the only option | ||

Although not illegal, they are afraid he would be caught touching (as in physically touching) the poker machines or tables, which is a crime in NJ. After fighting as much as possible, the hotels rule is final. This has nothing to do with underage people being allowed in the hotels etc, it is just that you actually have to pass through the gaming hall to get to the venue. Which is the actual issue at hand that there is 'risk'. In return, I will send leenock to Providence MLG. We are now deciding which other player we will send, whether it be thebest, Oz, Gumiho or asd. I will announce later today whom we come to a conclusion about. Sorry to disappoint leenocks fans, but I will make sure he gets to the USA asap! ugh as a leenock fan that has been through atlantic city underage, i gotta cry "horseshit." i went to the House of Blues to see Brand New play a little under 4 years ago when I was only 19. the age to gamble is 21 because they all serve drinks to people playing the games AND i had to pass through several casino floors. incredibly disappointing..i was really looking forward to seeing the leenoctopus there | ||

Best to luck to Leenock in his other ventures! Yeah, it really bites. I'm 20 years old, and not turning 21 until December. So close, yet so far away. I really would've loved to attend- weather it would've been playing and getting destroyed, or just spectating an awesome event. I suppose I'll be at home watching the stream and hoping that you guys decide to have IPL4 in the same venue (or maybe somewhere else in the NJ/PA area that even underage players/fans could attend?) so that I can attend the next event. | ||

Again. You can compete if over 18 and under 21. If you lose, you can spectate the event despite being under 21. You CAN attend. | ||
