Gambling and playing cards are two totally different things. Former is a risky habit while later is a recreation.

Before they were doing all this abroad, flashing their money, gambling, clubbing, boozing, womanising the lot.... i guess gradually they will be able to do all this on the home grounds.

Well Khomeinist, this isn't gambling but a popular game called Baloot in Saudi Arabia and Arabian gulf area.

Even clerks play this game, which is a fun game for many and it's played by Cards as you see.
