  For NC mostly gambling seems to be based on is it a game of chance .


  “[A] game of chance is one in which the element of chance
predominates over the element of skill, and a game of skill is one in
which the element of skill predominates over the element of chance.”
State v. Stroupe, 76 S.E.2d 313, 316 (N.C. 1953).


 There is also case law on some games that people may assume are games
of skill.

 cards , dice , billiards , bowling etc...

cards  (blackjack ruled game of chance)
dice game of chance
billards game of skill

There is a whole section on lotteries  which makes it a crime to
advertise and or participate with exceptions for the state lottery.
There used
to an exception for charities they could have 1 lottery a year. I have
not checked to see if that still exists.

Best bet is to check with an NC attorney .
