It's not illegal, but it's illegal to gamble in mahjong parlors. There are limits and boundaries for entertainment in mahjong parlors. Now the state stipulates that entertainment with a certain amount of money or entertainment with money to win or lose with family members is not gambling. So now mahjong halls are mostly in the name of an activity center or an entertainment center. See if it is "for profit" to distinguish between gambling and entertainment.

1. Can mahjong machine be put upstairs in the teahouse?

1. No; Breaking the law may even constitute a crime.

2. Your so-called "release" is obviously not the intention of storage or custody, nor is it used for entertainment between your family or friends, but for profit-making purposes. Then you are obviously involved in operating beyond the business scope, violating the industrial and commercial administrative regulations, and you will be subject to administrative penalties according to law, such as warning, ordering rectification, fines, etc.

3. If you provide mahjong machine for others to gamble, while others commit gambling crimes, you may commit the crime of opening a casino, and you will be criminally punished according to law. I won't talk about the specific requirements, because it's impossible to give you an accurate answer, which is not good for you.

4. In summary, you can't "let go", otherwise it is illegal and may even constitute a crime.

2. What are the rules for opening a teahouse to play cards?

1. It is illegal to gamble in a mahjong room, and there are limits and boundaries for entertainment in the mahjong room. Now the state stipulates that entertainment with a certain amount or entertainment with money to win or lose with family members is not gambling. So now mahjong halls are mostly in the name of an activity center or an entertainment center.

2. See whether it is "for profit" to distinguish whether it is gambling or entertainment.

It is not for profit, to engage in activities with a small amount of property to win or lose, and to provide entertainment places such as chess and cards rooms with normal fees for places and services, etc., which are not regarded as gambling.

3. If it is a "profit-making" gambling behavior, it depends on the amount and the seriousness of the plot, and whether it is a "gambling head" and a "gambling-oriented gambler" to distinguish between public security cases and criminal cases. For example, for gambling heads, a suspected crime with a profit of more than 5,111 yuan is a criminal case, otherwise it is only a public security case.

third, will the gambling boss in the teahouse be punished?

He will be punished according to law.

1. An actor who, for the purpose of making profits, gathers people to gamble or takes gambling as his profession shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance, and shall also be fined.
