That would seem to imply we're gambling. Is that legal? Oh, if only we had some czar of the criminal justice system to consult about the legality...
Implied gambling is perfectly legal. If I had written that we made a bet or that I would win a beer, that would be gambling. I merely said I would make you buy me a beer. That may involve felony threats, extortion, and assault, but would not put me in jail for gambling. By the way, you still owe me the beer I won from our bet last year.Â
