CC 2983 - Actions for payment of gaming debts and bets. - Louisiana Statutes

Art. 2983. Actions for payment of gaming debts and bets.

The law grants no action for the payment of what has been won at gaming or by a bet, except for games tending to promote skill in the use of arms, such as the exercise of the gun and foot, horse and chariot racing.

And as to such games, the judge may reject the demand, when the sum appears to him excessive.
