Make your titles descriptive!
Giving a descriptive titles lets readers know what they can expect to read about in your thread. A well thought-out title is the difference between people clicking your thread, reading, and replying vs. just scrolling right past it.
Do NOT copy/paste content from other sites/sources!
If you would like to post a news article for discussion, you MAY NOT copy and paste the entire article. You may quote a small blurb or main idea of the article, along with a conversation starter or question in your own words. You can then include a link to the original article. Copying and pasting entire articles or other literary works is a violation of copyright laws, and we will delete any posts doing this. Members who do this may receive a warning and infraction as well.
Check CardsChat News first!
Before posting an article link from another website, we ask that you search CardsChat's News articles first. We may have already covered that topic, and would prefer a link to our own news in threads.

That is something you would need research for yourself. I quickly googled and it looks like online gambling is legal, but you probably have to pay taxes.

Checked and updated! It's a good time to reread the first post for a quick refresher on best practices for posting in this forum.

@Tammy knows best, but I would say that IF anything news worthy happens in that tournament that really stands out (e.g. same person wins several first places in that series), then it can be news. But simply writing that this kind of promotion is taking place at the moment is not for the news section.
...but it could be mentioned in other places.
