Anzac Poker Cup - Crown

[GunSR2]

Anyone have any info on this "Anzac Poker Cup" at Crown on Anzac Day @ 7.10PM? Looks interesting but no information on the website.

It's a criminal offence to use the word "ANZAC" to describe your product/service/etc, so they had better be careful what they call the thing.

Helps if you also read the legislation...

Subregulation (1) does not apply to the assumption or use of the words ‘Anzac Day’ in connection with an entertainment held on 25 April in any year or on consecutive days that include that day where those words are not used to describe or designate single events within an entertainment consisting of 2 or more events.

Fair bit of wiggle room in that paragraph alone...

nah it's like online poker - legal to buy them just not legal to sell them - and the law largely ignored

I trust Crown Management have approached RSL Victoria for approval and appropriate support.
