January 6, 200818 yr I would like to buy a table football, but I have been told that it is illegal to have – even in your own house. The explanation I have got, is that people will play for money or something like that. At the same time it is legal to play snooker – and at the snooker table money jumps from pocket to pocket – even when the police are there. The town is Kuchinarai in Kalasin. Can anyone explain to me please?
January 6, 200818 yr I think the people who told you that "table football" was illegal ,he/she may misunderstood. The word "Table Football" in Thai is "Toh ball" (โต๊ะบอล) is a slang word of a gambling that your have to choose a team from a soccer match in TV (as European cup) for betting. Sometimes we call it as "Panan Toh Ball" พนัน(=gambling)โต๊ะบอล. Next, there is a other gambling call "Ball dtoo" บอลตู้ which is a winning computer game and people bet for it. On the other hand, your "table football" is a mini football game on a table.
January 6, 200818 yr Author Thanks for the detailed answer. But I am pretty sure, that it is table football like you picture shows. That is because I made the special handmoves while discussing.
