If a place contains unlawful acts, such as smoking and the intermingling of men and women, it is an objectionable place, and it is not permissible to sit in it except for one who intends to change theable act. If the place is free of unlawful acts, then it is permissible to sit and play in it, provided the rules of the game are adhered to.
