单词 | Gaming or wagering contract |
释义 | 博彩或賭博合約 A contract by which two persons, professing to hold opposite views touching the issue of a future uncertain event, agree that on the determination of the event one shall win from the other a sum of money or other stake: Halsbury’s Laws of Hong Kong, Vol 3, Betting, Gambling and Lotteries [50.003]. Neither of the contracting parties having any other interest in that contract than the sum or stake he will so win or lose, there being no other real consideration for the making of such contract by either of the parties. It is essential to a wagering contract that each party may under it either win or lose, whether he will win or lose being dependent on the issue of the event, and therefore, remaining uncertain until that issue is known: [50.003]. See also Consideration; Contract; Illegal contract. 憑藉此等合約,聲稱就將來不確定事宜的結果持相反觀點的兩名人士,同意在有關事宜確定時,其中一方會贏取他方的一筆款項或賭金:Halsbury’s Laws of Hong Kong, 第3冊,博彩、賭博與獎券,第[50.003]冊。合約的任何一方除了贏得或損失在該等合約內的款項或賭金外,不會得到任何其他利益,因為訂立此等合約的任何一方不會有其他真正的代價。在博彩合約中,必要的是任何一方會取決於有關事宜的結果而會贏或輸,因此,直至該結果屬已知事實之前,仍未能確定輸贏:第[50.003]冊。另見 Consideration; Contract; Illegal contract。 |
