SECTION 4: Legal Compliance with Texas Law

Governing Law: Texas Penal Code §§ 47.01–47.02

To avoid classification as illegal gambling in Texas, a game must not include all three of the following:

Element Description Included in Gem City Dice Prize A reward of value for game outcome✅ Yes Chance Winner determined by a random factor (e.g., dice) ✅ Yes Consideration Player pays money or stakes value to play ❌ No

Key Compliance Point:

Gem City Dice does not involve “consideration.” Players are never required to risk money, property, or anything of value to enter or participate.

Therefore, under Texas law, Gem City Dice does not meet the definition of illegal gambling, as it fails one of the three required components: consideration.
