In one of my classes yesterday, we were reading over the school rules. It says no gambling! Me and my friends love to gamble though! I brought cards yesterday and we played poker and blackjack. Do you think I would get into trouble if we just bet, like, small stuff like skittles? It says dont gamble things of value. Skittels dont really have much value, right? Ok thanks for your opinion! :)

It is still gambling. And who is to say that you have not assigned a monetary value to the skittles, and will pay up in cash later? Not good, don't do it.
Hey, it is just August! Getting caught is not a good way to start a new school year!
It is OK to ask if it's OK just to play a game like Blackjack without gambling, but beware! You might be watched, teachers do trade info about students, and you'll get that trouble maker reputation. Unless it is already too late, the reputation is already yours, then think twice about rule breaking.
And you are welcome!

Are you serious?!? If they stop you from Playing cards for Candy there is something seriously wrong with your school. With all the Garbage out there like Rapes and Assaults in the hallways, Drugs, Hazing, and Bullying I can't see why they would bust a bunch of kids quietly playing a harmless game of cards. I have a feeling they mean something more than that....at least I hope they do.

Then you and your friend need to gamble on the week-ends.
Gambling at school can get you in trouble. You are at school to learn how to become an adult and a contributing member
of society, Next time, leave the cards at home.

According to the rules, no gambling means just that. I disagree with that rule, but I'm sure that just because they stated that, that you will get in trouble for it.

Do the rules say no gambling? What the heck do you really think?

I'd put money on it. That rule is, at least partly, to prevent hard feelings and fights when somebody's a bad loser and, if somebody's a bad loser, it won't make any difference if you're playing for skittles or silver dollars. Shuffle up and deal, at home.
