Well, that certainly is a great question! This is because the answer is apparently unclear to some poker players. I just read a news article that said that a Florida resident left his two kids in a car so to be able to go and play poker in a local gambling establishment... What a horrible thing to do!
If it was not for a passerby who spotted two little boys sitting in the car by themselves and called the police, who knows how many hours would have passed before the poker-playing father returned to the vehicle. The father, by the way, claimed that he had only been at the facility for 15 minutes...
Luckily, the boys are fine. None of them suffered any injury during the incident. Still, the father is very likely to be prosecuted because, according to Florida's, law a parent is not allowed to leave a child in a vehicle unattended.
Although I'm an ardent poker fan myself, I would never leave my children (well, the yet unborn ones) in a vehicle by themselves no matter how bad the craving for poker might be... But, who knows maybe it's just me. It's a crazy world out there!
