Tax Court Denies Exempt Status To Group Using Trading Card Games To Promote Sobriety

Every once in a while I think the IRS and the Tax Court are really getting it wrong and that’s where I’m at in the decision confirming the IRS denial of 501(c)(3) status to GameHearts. GameHearts was founded to promote sobriety by providing alternative gaming activities.  And by gaming we are not talking blackjack, roulette, and slots.  The main type of gaming that GameHearts sponsors is based on collectible cards.  There are quite a few different kinds but the best known and most popular is Magic: The Gathering.
