Good idea for mobile casino.
must not let police see

I’ve heard of stories where people run gambling dens openly at
funerals, by offering the mourning some ‘ang pow’ to help with
funeral expenses, in return for being allowed to open a few tables
at the funeral. People normally gamble in full view of the public
at funerals anyway, and surely the police wouldn’t raid a funeral?!
(And risk being haunted you know?)
Maybe not.
GAMBLING GRANNY FINED
A 69-year-old grandmother, Koh Moi Moi, was fined $5,000 yesterday
by district court for gaming in a public place.
At 4.15am on April 22, police officers noticed people going in and
out of a makeshift enclosed area beside a Chinese funeral wake at
the void deck of Blk 1, Bedok South Avenue 1.
They raided the make-shift area which was covered with yellow
canvas, and found Koh around a table with 11 other people playing a
game called Si Ki Phuay - a game of chance using chips and money as
stakes.
Cash amounting to $517 along with other items like cigarettes, dice
and red packets were seized.
Koh, who was unrepresented, pleaded for a light sentence. She said
she needed to take care of her granddaughter as both the child’s
parents are working.
