In an effort to regulate and control gambling, many states have banned poker. However, the New Jersey state legislature has taken a different approach, legalizing poker for both recreational and professional players.
While there are still some lAWS in place that regulate the game, such as limiting the number of players in a single game, most aspects of poker play are now legal in New Jersey. .
While some may view this as a backslide for the state, others believe that legalizing poker will bring money into the state economy and create more jobs. Ultimately, it is up to each individual to decide whether or not they think poker is a moral or legal sport.
However, based on current legislation in New Jersey, it appears that the game is now officially legal in the state.
