Underwater gamblers will be in hot water if that’s Krabi!

A group of four divers playing cards for money under water will be in trouble if they were really gambling under the sea in Krabi.

But authorities think that it is probably just a prank done abroad even though Thai money is clearly visible.

A video of the “card school” has been shared all across Facebook since early March.

Four people with lots of ten baht coins are playing a game.

Pol Lt Col Anurak Parinyasathirakun of the Krabi water police said he did not believe it was in his jurisdiction.

Woraphot Lormlim of the national park that covers the Phi Phi area said that the clip was probably filmed abroad.

But if it was in Thailand the perpetrators could face prosecution.

Thailand has strict laws regarding gambling including cards.
