The Lone Star State of Texas has quite a stringent regulation on gambling activities within the state, not unlike many other states in the USA.
Though betting on chance games is usually punishable by the law, certain compromises are made to accommodate social gaming, unlike states such as South Carolina, which prohibit even this sort of play.
While constant liberalisation of the state in this regard is pushed, it is met by stiff opposition that is making it difficult to decriminalise gambling. So, the present climate of the state of gambling in Texas is contentious.

Is Online Gambling Legal in Texas?
Online Gambling is illegal within the state of Texas. The legislation was written before the invention of the internet, and as such, does not allude specifically to internet gambling.
However, the broad terms used in the law are thought enough to include this practice as an outlawed practice.
The U.S. Federal Gambling Regulations criminalise internet gambling and the transferring of funds for betting purposes. The ‘Unlawful Internet Gambling Act’ and the ‘Federal Wire Act’ must click into effect, if a state does not have direct legislation in place to declare online gambling as legalised in the state.
Minimum Legal age to Gamble in Texas
There are various age limits for gambling, depending on what you are playing or betting on. The minimum age for lottery players is 18 years old in-state, while gambling at the horse or dog track requires you to be at least 21 years of age. Should you seek to gamble at the Lucky Eagle Casino, you will be required to prove that you are 21 years of age or older.
